"Mr Joshua" is a favourite. I use 85 kg for the DL. The running 2% incline (1.28-1.30 min/ 400) Total 23:14 min. New PR by 4 min. CFT ended at 270, 10 more than last time. Shoulder press still my weak spot. "Barbara" last night: 29:14 min. I did the 10k run WOD in heavy snow and wind the other day. 50 min. Some other WODs but too much to remember. Stay fit.

I keep my WO log on my web site, but will try to blog something here as well. Any suggestions and advise is welcome. I am CF freak and got into the stage when I dunno if I should do CF HQ workout, CF endurance workout, or www.performancemenu.com workout. I def need to work on my strenght but thats exactly what I dont like doing, huffy puffy MetCons are my cup of tea:-)

I haven´t done much since last time I wrote. Major car trouble (= spending time outside in -10 dgr C for hours every night), heavy workload (project deadlines) and general fatigue due to a cold and lack of sleep makes it hard to have the heart for a CF excersise at 6.00 in the morning. I did the 5k run. On a treadmill, 2% incline. 21.36 min.Not too bad. I also did the PC + dips WOD, somewhat modified. 50 kg (instead of 70 kg) and regular dips. 10.40 min. Since then nothing. Hopefully you other C…

Happy New Year everyone! Did a "Tabata Something Else" Sunday before Christmas ,323 reps.

"Michael" 25.54 min. "Murph" 38.53. My brothers 30/30 Challenge: 30 reps with 30 kg bar DL/SDLHP/PC/BSQ/PP/PU for time. 13.02 min. My pullup bar is outside in the back. Thankfully with roof over it but still... The temperature he…

My younger (by 7 min) twin brother created an exercise of his own one day when he didn´t like the WOD.
30 kg bar, 30 reps. For time.
Dead Lifts / Sumo Dead Lift High Pull / Power Cleans / Back Squats / Push Press / Pull Ups. He finished in 18.09 min and begged me to try. So I did this morning.This one really gets your pulse up! My time: 13.02. No strenght when I came to the PU´s. Maybe yesterdays 90 PU have something to do with it:) I work my last day today before my Christmas vacation. I´ll try…

Decided that I had avoided the WOD from Friday 12:th way too long. Time to give it a try. The WOD: 3 rounds of : BoxJump 50 reps 60 cm/85 kg DL 21 reps/ PU 30 reps. Damn that was hard! The 50 BJ´s showed that there is a big difference between 50 and 60 cm. You have to be careful not to stumble and knock your teeth out. The DL´s were actually OK today, I felt good and had a good pace. The major problem today were the inferior PU bar that the gym have. A thin painted thing ,slippery as a soap in a…

I did the Monday WOD on Tuesday. A bit stiff in the back due to the digging the day before but the Deadlifts really felt good.
I used 105 kg instead of 125. 125 is to close to my 1 rep max (130-135 maybe ) Have to get some speed in this exercise. Time 8:02. Not very fast maybe compared to the "sub 3-min guys" but next time I will go for 110 kg and faster. I actually start to enjoy Deadlifts. A really good workout for the hole body. The only drawback so far is my weak grip but I work on that. No…

Haven´t done much since last time I wrote. My brother didn´t like that I beat him at the squat challenge (50kg/50 reps for time) so he wanted me to show him with a regular bar and not a person on my shoulders. I went over to him the other day and used his bar. To his surprise , and mine, I crushed the old time. 2.37 min (3.38 last time). Ha, you are still my b...., bro´. Did the Nasty Girls WOD friday. Subbed the MU with the usual 3/3 PU/Dips. Subbed the 135 lb with 40 kg. Time 18.13 min. First…

Hard to focus on the WODs or even get them done lately. I´m not following the CF mainpage as good as before. It´s only a couple of weeks left to work before the christmas holiday and with that many projects deadline. Makes you feel a little bit stressed. Tried the Clean and Jerk 5x1reps yesterday morning but had no strentgh. Last time I did this one was in the afternoon and I managed 60 kg.This time, 6.30 in the morning, my body said no at 50! Actually the Cleans were no problem but I got stuck…

My brother called me the other day and told me he invented a new excersice he wanted me to try. 50 backsquats with 50 kg for time. He himself managed 6.20 min. I couldn´t let that pass unchallenged so I improvised a little. Don´t have any weights at home but my youngest daughter is 18 years old, 164 cm and 50 kg. Perfect! Took her on the shoulders in some kind of fireman grip, put an empty cardboard box below my butt to be sure I squatted enough (passed parallell to the floor) and started the wa…

Friday afternoon. Some quick words before going back to work. Tuesday a failure. Tried the Shoulder presse 1-1-1-1-1 but got somewrong with my neck, felt like a nerve got jammed in there. Had to abort at 40 kg. Wednesday off as rest day. Thursday I did Fran. That really took some effort. My brother did it the day before with 30 kg. 8.10 min. I had to beat him and decided to go for 35 kg. BAD CHOICE. I managed to do the sets but it was really a near-pukie experiance. The time ended at 8.59 min. D…

Some days have passed since last Wednesday. Rested on Thursday. On Friday I did some Clean and Jerk 1-1-1-1-1 that I had skipped earlier. Managed 60 kg. Slow Saturday, took a day off again, still not 100 %. Sunday evening I decided to do the Tabata.
That was really fun! My PU´s keeps the score down but still i reached 323 reps total. (Anchored SU old school (all the way up), all Pushups not chest touching ground maybee but what the f##ck) Last time I had something like 270. Improvement!
Monday m…

Last Thursday I did the Nicole. That really helped my cold get a new grip on my weak body. Took the whole weekend and Monday off and just relaxed. I did some real shoveling due to the snowstorm that hit this region Sunday, so some involuntary excersising was done. Started Tuesday again with the Lynne WOD. BWBP is not for me, scaled it to 55 kg (BW 70) and managed 67 reps total. BP and PU back to back, 1 min rest between sets. Not happy with it but, had 68 reps last time. Mr Joshua was my Wednesd…

Two days of being lazy is more than enough. I had borrowed a hybrid bike from a friend and was eager to try it. The weather here in Sweden isn´t idea this time of the year, yesterday a snow/rain mix that froze in the evening, making it a little slippery this morning. A couple degrees below zero (celsius) and a light breeze. The bike was a dream to ride! As long as you didn´t make a turn you could have a pretty good pace. Turning, on the other hand, had to be done in slow motion. Made it to the g…

Hhhmm, forgot some days to post my WODs here. Do it mainly in the german community (www.crossfit.de), which is already filled with 45 members!
Did some rowing today, did not want to think that much and thought i was kind of tired, turned out I was not, at least not physically. Did a PR on my C2 max, hit 914 Watt with 7 rows after a short warm-up. After that some gymnastic before I rowed four times 4 minutes followd by 1 minute rest. All rounds between 1060 and 1030 meters which equals around 1:…
