3/5/10 - Strength Day - Squat Cleans

Warm-Up:
400m Run


WOD:
Squat Clean
5-5-5-5-5-1-1-1-1
Loads: 95-95-105-115-115-125-135-135-135

Note: The actual WOD was the Squat Balance, which is basically a power snatch that goes immediately into an overhead squat. But, right now I'm not lifting anything over my head due to this irritation in my right arm, so I did squat cleans instead. Also, I can't really do overhead squats due to lack of flexibility in my shoulders, back, and hamstrings. This is something I'm working on, but I fully expect that it will take months before I can do a decent overhead squat.

Something else to note: the clean motion on the squat cleans did irritate my arm a bit, although not as much as pushing directly over my head or out from my chest. Overall, the arm feels a lot better.

*Calorie count for dried pineapple found here. This page actually says two pineapple rings are 130 calories. I'm actually rounding up a little bit to account for the rings that I bought maybe being slightly thicker than what they are referring to.

9:30 pm - already hungry. I should go eat the rest of that fish or some cottage cheese or something. Curious how my run will feel next week after some rest days. I should try and get to the gym and do back squats tomorrow. Damn I'm tired. Should try and take a nap before going out tonight.

Update 3/6/10 - cheated like crazy last night once I went out. It sucks to record all the crap I ate last night, but if this is going to work I have to be honest with myself. Actually, the only stuff that's really super bad are the drinks and the cheeseburgers. If I had stayed in and tried to go to sleep I probably would have dropped another pound. Plus, I would have gotten up early and could have mowed my Mom's lawn and gone and run some errands. Instead, it's 3:00 pm Saturday afternoon and I haven't done anything other than eat and take a shower.
