Nancy

Workout 9 August 2009:

"Nancy"
Five rounds for time of:
400 meter run
Overhead squat, 15 reps, 55lbs

Results: 16'49
Previous best: 17'45, 60lb OHS (6 May 08)

I'm very happy with how well today's workout went since it's been awhile since I've run or done OHS. I once again threw my back out earlier this week, so was actually a bit worried that going overhead might set me back further, so I took off a couple of pounds from the bar. This weight was perfect since I was able to do each set of 15 OHS unbroken, but not easily. I should be able to go back up to 60 next time, perhaps 65lbs.

"Learn to use a fucking belt! Stop this bullshit! It's not cheating. A belt only makes your abs work harder."
