I have not posted much so below is the last several days but first some thoughts
I have been zoning strong since the 2nd of Jan with 17 blocks a day and 2 cheat meals a week. I don't even really notice it that much any more. its gotten a lot easier. It has started to show in the gym too. My times are coming down along with the body fat. I feel lighter and that's what is important.
Friday 1/30 I did Randy
75x 75lb Power Cleans
7:59
I did this WOD in November and got 9:??. This one felt harder then I remember but I was happy with the time
Saturday 1/31 I did a hill repeat run. It was the same run from 2 weeks prior but this time I was alone and about a minute slower.
I also did a team workout.
150 wall balls (20lb ball)
200 KB swings (53lb bell)
250 dead lifts (135lb)
300 push-ups
It was with two other people; a girl who I had never met before but really impressed me with her effort especially on the push-ups and wall balls and a guy I had seen before who is average and had to scale the weights but also put in a good effort. They both pushed me.
I felt great on this. I had a coffee immediately before the WOD but I don’t know if that had anything to do with it but everything went well. I did a little more than my 1/3 share on most of the stations but I was cruising especially on the dead lifts the weight felt easy. The push-ups were as good as they have felt in a long time and the wall balls were not to hard either.

Sunday 2/1 I rested
Monday 2/2 was Hanging Power Cleans
3-2-2-2-1-1-1-1-1
I finished with a sketch 195lbs. It was more of a hanging squat clean. I did a good 190lb and failed at 205lb.
Tuesday 2/3 was Jackie:
1000m Row +
50 Thrusters @ 45lbs
30 pull-ups
I forgot my exact time for this but I think it was in the 8 min range. I know I did the row in 3:30.08 and got through the thrusters well. I was having a little trouble on the pull-ups; I am getting my butterfly kip down and could not get the regular kip to work
The day after this was filmed I got it. It clicked and now I can string them together much better.
Wednesday 2/4 I did a evil thing called “Reverse Running Fran”
9 Pull-ups +
9 Thrusters +
800m sprint +
15 Pull-ups +
15 Thrusters +
400m sprint
21 Pull-ups
21 Thrusters
200m sprint
13:23
I was able to “butterfly kip” almost all of these and that helped my time a lot and the thrusts felt a lot better than they have recently.
Thursday 2/5 I rested
Friday 2/6 I did Annie:
50-40-30-20-10 of double unders and sit-ups
8:23
I have been pulling out the jump rope a little lately and have not done many sit-ups so this seemed like a good one to do. (on a side note this is the 2nd fastest time on the gym's board but #1 is 5:25 ish)
Saturday 2/7 I did "Tabata Hell"
8 rounds of 20 seconds work 10 seconds rest
Row
Pull-Ups
Sit-ups
KB Swings (53 lbs)
and B to B squats
