About Me

My photo
I am 20 years old at Springfield College. I started Crossfit in the winter of 2008 and have went on and off with that and P90x. But since the summer of 2009 until summer of 2011 I did Crossfit then switched to Strength and Conditioning. I Played soccer lacrosse basketball and ran track throughout my life. I played lacrosse at Endicott but I was injured and did not play the entire season. Another passion is strength and conditioning which has changed my life for the better. My midterm goal is to compete in a powerlifting competition, run an ultra and run the Boston Marathon, and my ultimate long term goal is to become a Strength and Conditioning coach, a lacrosse coach, and to open my own Strength and Conditioning gym as well as break the record for bench press at 165lbs bw. Along with training for my goals I enjoy pushing my body to its limits and seeing what the human body is capable of by doing activities that require a lot of physical and mental aspects.

This wod was a good one as soon as I finished the 21 hang cleans I felt my legs from yesterday pretty bad and that held me back a bit. Great wod though.

On the high rep I could have got 20 I am pissed I was struggling on the 18th but I def could have gone for 20 if i didnt almost puke i could feel it in my throat coming up more and more each rep so I went til i could almost feel it in my mouth then decided that was enough. The workout was terrible I was really sow on it for some reason my legs were torched form the squats. Press tomorrow then a rest day.

shoulder press 3x5
135-145-150

1x12-15
110 for 15

Tabata 70's Big <--- what a terrible name whoever made that up is a complete dumbass

squats (20lbs weighted vest) 20,21,20,18,16,15,14,15
burpees 10,9,7,6,5,5,5,5

Total=lowest rep of each added together=36

Body:legs are tired
sleep:8hrs
nutrition:ate a lot of good and had a big ice cream with lots of shit on it
notes: I was pumped with the shoulder press because I got 150 for I think that is the highest I have ever gotten too. The wod was a really good one I offered to go in this order and have burpees last because ben did not want to have them last (pussy). The first 2 movements were not bad at all but then I hit the weighted squats and that vest really makes a difference. Right after that i went into burpees and I hit the floor and my tris were dead from the ring push ups and then I got to jump up and my legs were toast from the squats so the burpees were a struggle to get through. Also another note on the name of the workout....Ben made it up and I cant say it is the best name so I am going to keep giving him shit for it.

The wod was a really good one it was supposed to be with 15 secs between rds but i decided to go straight through. I am home for break so I am decided to do muscle up work.

notes: Today my uncle passed away at 4:15am we all knew it was coming it is better that he is now at peace and is not suffering. So today I wanted to get a complete killer of a wod in honor of him. This one seemed to be a great one so i decided to do it. I used my uncle as motivation and whenever I wanted to stop or slow down I would think of him and pick it back up and keep pushing. I almost broke down after this effort because I was just so emotionally and physically drained. I will never forget him and he will always be in my prayers. RIP Uncle Chuck.

Body:good
sleep:9hrs
nutrition:good
notes: good snatch work today almost had 165 i think I could have got it if i didnt start so strong in the beginning. The wod was killer as always. I couldnt drop the weight from the top so that is where i lost my time from my pr i was only off by 6 seconds so that makes sense. Tomorrow I am going to hit a longer cf wod most likely and some skill work.

Notes: I decided that I wanted to do a killer thanksgiving wod to keep the tradition of good wods on holidays. It went really well, i partioned it as follows...First half I did cindy style so 10 rds of 5 pull ups 10 push ups 15 squats.....the second half I did 5rds of 10 pull ups 20 pus ups 30 squats and that seemed to be a little faster than the cindy style one. All in all a really good wod and will be feeling it tomorrow for sure. The mobility wod I did today was a shoulder one using a band and it really felt good and I could feel a huge difference. Tomorrow I am thinking of wodding again depending on the sleep I get tonight and how the body feels.

It was not much different this time around as painful as I remembered and maybe a little more. I killed it though. I got the blood work results back today and everything was normal except my Vit D is low so I will be taking some Vit D supplements 2000 units a day until it gets back up to normal. Going to do work on food tomorrow at Thanksgiving and I am going to hit another killer wod first. No mobility wod today so I will be doing 2 tomorrow.

I am going to crossfit for the rest of the week I need a break from runs for the rest of the week. Went to the doctors today and got blood work done so I will be waiting on results from that.

Mobility wod

Body:hip flexors still sore

nutrition:good
notes: still taking it kind of easy to get my head back into it. It only hurt a bit during the workout so I think It is slowly getting better which is good. I have a doctors appointment tomorrow to do blood work and make sure everything is ok. The wod was a good one I did everything unbroken but the ring dips which was expected. I think I could have done it faster if I wasnt so worried about my head. I also did the mobility wod for yesterday again today I am going to keep at that because I can tell that it is going to help with injury and plateauing.

OH squats 95lbs
burpees
7:51

Body: lower back glutes and hamstrings sore
sleep:10hrs
nutrition:They had pumpkin pie at dinner couldnt pass it up
notes: I think that is a 5rep pr on the squats not positive though. The wod went ok I would of got a better time but for some reason I got a pounding pressure headache when I help the OH squats for to long in the back of my head. I think it has to do with my range of motion and flexibility and I am not flexible enough in my shoulders to do them yet so I will be working on that flexibility a lot more.

notes: I woke up feeling pretty rested today so I decided to go decently hard. The deadlifts raped my back and I will be feeling them for a few days atleast seeing how I can already feel some pain and DOMS hasnt set in yet. This wod is a really good one I remember I was dying last time I did it and it did not disappoint once again I ended up laying on the turf for a good 5 mins until I could stand up straight again. I did it barefoot as well. Tomorrow I will be doing squats and then a really good wod. My diet has been pretty consistent mostly paleo with milk and cheese sometimes and I think that has to do with me recovering pretty fast so I am going to keep having a glass at each meal.

30 min primal walk in vffs

Body:sore and worn down/sick
sleep:11hrs
nutrition:good
notes: A few changes here. Run wasn't happening woke up feeling shitty and the actually sick part finally hit me. I talked to the doctor and he told me to pretty much just rest and relax til I feel better. Also The paleo challenge is coming to an end because it is not right for me I have done my work to get to this point and now I need to eat for performance and not to be clean. I will still be clean as possible but I am not going strict. Other than that that is about it. Hopefully I can rest up and get back at it soon.

I plan on bringing more core stuff back as soon as I am off cfsb and on my own/bens programming style. Tomorrow I am doing a long relaxing run at tufts I will probably do 2 laps in the vffs and then switch over to my regular shoes and keep going.

Rest Day

Body:lets tired but not sore
sleep:8hrs
nutrition:good
notes: finally a rest day lands on a day without practice so i was able to have a full rest day. Week 2 is over and already seeing improvements which im loving. Cant wait to see my 1 reps at the end of the cycle. Also when this cycle ends I will be taking 1 full recovery week with some yoga mixed in and lots of stretching icing and hopefully healing my back and glute fully. After that I will re-evaluate my goals and see if I want to get even stronger or go to a cfe type of bias.

That workout was crazy but humbled me and ill know better next time for sure. i was happy with the death by pull ups it is a pr by 13 pull ups.

I set a pr and also completed one of my 2010 goals of 5 straight MUs idk where it came from but they just felt realgood today so i was happy with that. So all in all a good raining day.
