Reply With QuoteYesterday's travel to Toronto was literally the stupidest thing ever. It's a 350 mile direct flight that takes around an hour. I got 4 on-time confirmations from the airline as late as 1:15pm, but at 2, upon arrival, was told it was cancelled, as were the rest of the flights for the day to Toronto from both LGA and JFK. And nothing available Thursday till 7:30pm. Unacceptable. So I ended up flying to Dallas to connect to a flight to Toronto, spending 6 hours on planes instead of about 1, and arriving at my hotel after 1am, instead of around 6pm. Also, the front desk thought it would be a good idea to call me at 7am letting me know about an issue with the hotel reservation. Where is the politeness, Canadians?!?!?! Anyway, yesterday sucked, eating was haphazard and I got no sleep. The sacrifices we make to do these seminars, you kids just don't appreciate!
Today was still an awesome lifting session at Element Crossfit, however.
Press
245x1, 260xf, 260x1 - PR, 245x1
Notes: 245 was super fast, so I went to 260. I wasn't focused enough and failed it right at the top of my head, where I always fail a press. Rested 5-6, regrouped, and nailed it. Then one more at 245.
The first rep @ 245:
260 press:
Bench Press
348x3x6 - first rep paused on every set
Notes: The last rep got real slow and grindy for the last couple sets, but the paused work was definitely helpful. Alex helped make sure I paused long enough to be legit.
Vid of the 2nd set, IIRC:
Chins
12,12,10,10,10,10
Notes: One of the crossfit coahces here accused me of kipping chin-ups. I. Do. Not. Kip. Like House Greyjoy, except with chins and pull-ups. I think she just didn't believe a 265 lb person could do a set of chins that fast. Come on, lady!
Alt DB Curlz for the Gurlz
60x8, 55x8
Then to Burrito Boyz afterwards. Not as flavorful as Chipotle, but much, much meater (that's what she said).
