Warmup:
500m row
1 Round of:
GHD Back Extensions (10 reps)
GHD Situps (10 reps)
Overhead Squats (10 reps)
Ring Rows (10 reps)

Skill Development:
5 step Snatch progression
Worked on Overhead Squats some more. Definitely seeing a big improvement in these as my hip flexors and shoulders are getting stretched out better!

Workout of the Day (WOD): (Scaled)
"Joshie" (a Hero workout named after a soldier that fell in Afghanistan)
3 Rounds of:
21 Snatches (Bob 45# Barbell; Penny 20# Barbell)
21 Jumping Pullups
Bob's Time: 9:06
Penny's Time: 10:20

Penny practiced L-sit progressions between two benches, and I held L-sits on the Rings and then the Pullup bar 30 seconds at a time for a couple of times each.

This was the first time we did a CrossFit workout together, so I know that my time was a lot better with her there pushing me than it would have been had I been with a group of strangers. Knowing how close she was, I stayed fairly anaerobic on the last round, something I definitely wouldn't have done on my own. Nice job baby! You did great and motivated the hell out of me!
 
5 minute warm-up rowing (1100m)
2 sets of pull-ups
2 sets of dips
2 sets of bench press
2 sets of tricep extensions
2 mile run
 
Last Night

WOD:
Push Jerk (1,1,1,1,1,1,1) (1 rep max repeated 7 times)

Tried these at home and pretty much sucked.

90, 110, 130, 140, 160F, 150F (partial), 150F

These explosive movements are my bane? so much to still learn....
 
Warmup:
10 Deep squats

WOD:
60′ walking lunge
21 ring rows (steep angle)
21 sit-ups
60′ walking lunge
18 ring rows (steep angle)
18 sit-ups
60′ walking lunge
15 ring rows (steep angle)
15 sit-ups
60′ walking lunge
12 ring rows (steep angle)
12 sit-ups
60′ walking lunge
9 ring rows (steep angle)
9 sit-ups
60′ walking lunge
6 ring rows (steep angle)
6 sit-ups

Time: 9:41

Wasn't sure on best scaling on this, so went with 60′. In retrospect, I probably should have started with the Rx'd 100′ and scaled back on subsequent lunges as necessary.
 
Still at it Bob....

Still averaging 30-45minutes daily on the elliptical... had some wavy\spring washers break, so I had to order a box from mcmaster... Was making a few other noises, something was rubbing to the back cowling... so I just removed it... a little quieter. That and I picked up a few long headphone cables so I can jam w/o annoying my neighbors...
