Day 80 : Max Clean, Shoulder Press and Back on The Zone Bus

Well today was another somewhat encouraging day for me. First off, here was the workout.

Buy in: 1 attempt @ Max Pushups

WOD: 20mins to do your max clean.

Buy out: 1 attempt at fastest 400m Row

So I was able to do 22 knee pushups in a row for the "Buy in". I wasn't very happy with this ... I need to work on the flexibility of my feet so I can start to do proper pushups.

For the WOD I PR'd by 30# today ... my previous max clean was 135# today I was able to do 165# which is still terrible! People that have been doing this for a quarter of the time of me and are 100# lighter are throwing up more weight. My form is SOOO bad on this movement but I did improve a bit today.

In the "Buy out" I PR'd by nearly 14 seconds ... I was able to get a 1:16, but I think I could have gone sub 1:10 but my form was REALLY off the first 250m.

In the Oly Class we worked on Shoulder press and I'm still stuck at the 135# mark. I can't get past it! Ugh! After we did max shoulder press we did 10 rounds of 3 reps at about 80% max. It was TOUGH! My shoulders aren't nearly as sore as I thought they'd be. But I did hurt my wrist ... hopefully it's just strained and nothing more. A few days will tell.

As far as my diet is concerned ... I did very well today and stuck with Zone favorable food all day.
