60 squats
time=15:49

AfterWOD:
1 KB SDHP + 1 shuttle run with the KB
2 x, 3 x, 2x, 1 x
time=4:11

I have replaced the gymnastics wod link with strongmanwod and crossfit football, i plan on following both of these as i feel i will benifit from a  period of power movements and workouts consisting of short, heavy, explosive movements with longer rest periods. I will continue with these wods, along with olympic lifting up until i feel i will gain more from longer/ skill based wods. This is all about work capacity, moving large loads, long distances with awkard movements and equipment. I want to be a BEAST.

Rest Day


“If you're going to try, go all the way. Otherwise, don't even start. This could mean losing girlfriends, wives, relatives and maybe even your mind. It could mean not eating for three or four days. It could mean freezing on a park bench. It could mean jail. It could mean derision. It could mean mockery--isolation. Isolation is the gift. All the others are a test of your endurance, of how much you really want to do it. And, you'll do it, despite rejection and the worst odds. And it will be better than anything else you can imagine. If you're going to try, go all the way. There is no other feeling like that. You will be alone with the gods, and the nights will flame with fire. You will ride life straight to perfect laughter. It's the only good fight there is.”
Charles Bukowski, Factotum

10 pistols
15 pullups
total=5/11

wod#2
work up to 3rm snatch push press=60kg
work up to max power jerk=75kg

heaps less on mary than my pr, however i was seriously strict on my standards as it was for an online comp, the pullups were awesome (all unbroken and butterfly) and the hspu were ok.. but the pistols were the thing that took me down. Did the pistols barefoot which made it very hard since the standard for the comp was no oly shoes. would score HEAPS better with oly shoes, i will redo this wod when my back feels abit better and see the difference, either with or without oly shoes? what do you think is better to do?
