Todd, I had a great weekend and hope yours was wonderful as well. I am proud of Holly for competing and tearing it up! I rested Sat and on Sunday I went on a lovely hike with a lovely young lady. We got pretty far off trail and had a pretty sporty hike, so that was a good active rest today.
Back on the grind today, in my second cycle of Wendler's. A little hung over I did 5x170,5x195 and just rounded up to 225 for the last set and hit 12. Still not that heavy but I looked at the future progressions in weights and feel like I am right where I need to be to continue to gain for a year straight.
I then went into the DWOD 15min amrap 1 push press @ 140lbs 3 pulls ups, 3 push press 3 pull ups, 5 push press and 5 pull ups. Great workout, i am loving these, pretty much made it through the 15 minutes unbroken, except for a few of the 5 sets of pull ups. My pull up strength has improved a lot. No sweat on the push press at 140. I lost track of rounds they were a little challenging to keep track of. Good to be back on it for the week.
next step to truley be an athlete is you need to incorporate an athletic warmup! look on the CFFB site to see what the official CFFB warmup is...I think I am going to use the stuff we used to do before rugby games.
