Whiskey, War, Suicide, and Guns

Way to go Donut. 1502, damn.

Just watched the Bench/DL video and that is absolutely sick. When is the next meet for you?
 
12/2/09 - Wednesday - Overhead

Strongman Jerk (aka "Overhead"):
135x3(s)/3(pp)/3(pj)
185x5
225x3
255x1
285x1
300xmiss,miss,miss,miss

Dips/DB Hammer Curls:
3 sets




Wasn't going to do anything today since I benched Monday, but got the itch to do something. I tried some jerks, 285 went up easy which is the most I have ever put overhead. 300 was infuriating, I had it locked out twice but lost it backwards once and forwards once. Just need to practice these a little more, I should be able to get 300+ easy since I can push press 275. The last time I couldn't even pop it past my head so I just called it. Some squatting action planned Friday....
 
That looked stupid easy. :(

*Still hoping to jerk 225 before the end of the year*
 
*Sets up camp and waits for 550 squat

ALso have you heard any of five finger death punch's stuff? If so what do you think of them?

Treadmill: 30min 3.5mph @ 7%

This is a fun read. Rippetoe dropped his Crossfit affiliation a few month ago, some big affiliates did too (see here), and now Rob Wolff and Greg Everett are gone.


The Black Box Summit Or How I Got Fired from the CrossFit Nutrition Certification

Thanks for posting. I knew about Rip and Greyskull, not Robb.

Oh, I see Robb's is on his blog. Guess I would have found out tomorrow morning anyway. EDIT: But now I see it's a week old so I don't know how I missed it???

Pretty interesting, huh? Could have seen it coming...essentially the "McDojo" phenomenon, but in the fitness world rather than the martial arts world.
 
...

If a person meets ten people from France in their lifetime, and eight of them smell like shit, then one can make a generalization about people from France, and they aren’t an asshole for doing so.
 
I would really like to use the crossfit facility here in az but they charge $125 a month. Fuck that.

Greg Everett said he's getting the video cut and will put it up, I am just looking forward to the lulz of seeing a fat guy who doesn't train from Crossfit arguing with Everett about olympic lifting.
 
Haha, Robb, Greg, and Rip are some of my favorite guys in the training community, I'm glad to see them taking a stand on this.
 
12/6/09 - Sunday - Bacon Tribute Workout

I normally do a few box jumps or broad jumps as part of my warm up to get the neurons firing. I thought it would be a good idea to try and jump onto a 46" jerk box after making a 42" plyo box easy. I missed, and my shins broke my fall, my left on a large metal bolt sticking out the side (apparently jerk blocks aren't child safe). The gash was tremendous. My shoe was filled with blood before I got to the locker room. So now, waiting to see if stapling will be required. I will update with gore pics.

Sunday - 1
Donut - 0
