I Need a New Project September 30, 2009

Filed under: Uncategorized — pcfleeann @ 9:50 pm

I like projects. I like having a goal, something to work toward, something to plan. Case and point: Finished college – got a job. Got a job – immediately started looking at full-time grad school programs that I could do while keeping my full-time job. Finished grad school – planned a wedding. Got married… now what?

A little voice in the back of my head says I should throw myself into this CrossFit thing that I’ve been doing in a semi-casual sort of way since January. But I don’t really know how to do that – and I definitely don’t have a plan for it. And just for the record, I don’t like that kind of ambiguity.

To establish some kind of self-evaluation baseline… my diet is pretty solid, though I know it could be a little cleaner (less dairy and legumes, no sugar). My biometrics are in good shape and I just started taking fish oil. I’m pretty happy with my performance in general, but I still have a ton of goats to work on. (Double-unders, pull-ups, Oly Lift skills, HSPU’s… to name a few.) I’m feeling good about my stregnth gains since January, and especially in the last few months (DL 215; Back Squat 135; Push Press 90). I’d put myself in the average to slightly-above-average category; generally speaking in the abyss between RX’d and Pack.

But I don’t know where to go from here. Any ideas??

Power Clean and Jerk

75# – RX’d

Thanks so much to Ryan P. and Erika for all of their great cues and coaching. My jerks improved about 110% from the first round to the second — and it made the work so much easier.

6 x 400m Sprints

1:32-1:30-1:26-1:25-1:21-1:22

No idea why I was getting progressively faster – or why I was faster on almost all of the uphill sprints. Either way – really happy with these times.
