Great pic of Tara Doughty doing some front squats during our mini competition a couple of Saturday's ago.
DL: 318x16. Sold myself short, should've gone for 330. Next time!
Annie: 5:25 (15s PR).
that's 5:25, Pat! I think you can beat it...
These felt pretty good. I've done this weight before on DL during strength class where it was as many reps as possible and got 9 so this is a PR of sorts. I also felt like I kept good form which sometimes can go south with heavier weight.
Annie: 6:53 (23s PR)
This is the first time I've done Annie with DU's all unbroken.
Great job 6 a.m.!!!
I enjoy working with you Gina! You made the DL's look easy!!!
I got 50-40-30 DUs unbroken and FINISHED Annie under the cutoff at 9:31 Huge PR for me
Great Job 6am!
6:04 for Annie. Not a PR but I missed on my DUs twice so that hurt a bit. Situps got really tough on the last 3 rounds.
See everyone at 430!
Way to represent last night ladies! Thanks for putting this together Ricky!
225# = 67% 1 rm max. Should have went a little heavier.
Annie = 6:11
Annie: 6:02 or 6:09 can't remember.
Paul definitely set the bar high today with that huge dead-lift and lightning fast Annie. I think I can pull more. In my case the heavy dead-lifts made sit ups tougher.
198#x15 - this weight felt heavy in the warmup, but easy for 15. Glad I started a little light, though, because it let me focus on the form and gave me some things to work on. 208# would have been 1.25xBW for me, but i think I would have had a hard time controlling the descent.
Annie - 7:05 (PR - old time 8:41) I hadn't done this since Feb. 2010. I'm sure my situps were faster than last time, but they didn't suck my will to live any less. DU were pretty solid today - just tripped twice, and it was because I got lazy. (Imagine. Me, lazy.)
I don't know how this will work since there were NO WITNESSES, but I got Annie in 4:57, with good, legit sit ups. I and didn't ever stop on either movement.
And Addi, you have it all wrong! Annie was the awesome part of the work out!!!!
Annie in 8:34
situps were absolutely terrible
