Fran-like DLs/Ring Dips

2008-08-19

Finally got around to do a WOD !!! I had to plan our trip back East and all my plans were going to shit, so I decided to take a break and go vent my frustration on weights...

WOD :
21 - 15 - 9 for time
- Deadlift 225#
- Ring dips

Time : 6'12" or 14" ( Pukie gave me a shout... he was coming for a visit and only 2 blocks away)

Deadlifts went : 15-6, 10-5, 5-4
Ring dips went 20-1, 10-5, 5-4

Before Pukie arrived, I tested myself with the 2 minutes of airsquat madness... crank as many of these bad boys until your legs give up on ya.

Total :101 !

I looked at the clock and saw I had 2 secs left... went down for #102 but could barely get up... way after the 2 secs were gone by. 101 is still a decent number, although at one point I noticed that my form went out the window : I was folding at the hips but barely folding at the knees...

Great workout : I had to walk around the block twice to get a grip on my stomach and on my now cramping quads and lower back. PUKIE must've got lost on the way, I still haven't met him personally ! The workout took my mind off the stupid setbacks in my plans for my trip, and when I went back to planning and it worked well !

Here's a pic of my garage gym, more a garage than a gym I suppose !

2008-08-19 : My lower back is so friggin sore ! 225# Deadlifts x 45 will do that to ya ! Total of 10125 pounds lifted in 6 minutes is what I call a TEST. My quads are sore as well : 165# body weight x 101 in 2 minutes is not for sissies neither !

Going back East for a week and will probably not work out as much as here, although I will be practicing with the rings ! Muscle ups here I come !
