World-Class Fitness in 100 Words




*
Eat meat and vegetables, nuts and seeds, some fruit, little starch and no sugar. Keep intake to levels that will support exercise but not body fat.*Practice and train major lifts: Deadlift, clean, squat, presses, C&J, and snatch. Similarly, master the basics of gymnastics: pull-ups, dips, rope climb, push-ups, sit-ups, presses to handstand, pirouettes, flips, splits, and holds. Bike, run, swim, row, etc, hard and fast.*Five or six days per week mix these elements in as many combinations and patterns as creativity will allow. Routine is the enemy. Keep workouts short and intense.*Regularly learn and play new sports.—

AM Weight: 173

Body Condition: Shoulder is hurting. Both are sore. Upper back also.  But the one shoulder just hates me at this point. Today should be interesting. 

Programming:
AMRAP 20
20 Thrusters (135)
20 Pull-ups
20 Burpees

*** well, that sucked. Very disappointed in performance.  Feel like mentally was just huge pussy. 98 degrees today, gym was gross, but excuses. Thrusters were very difficult. This workout as comp, would have paced and broke up, but Jason said not to. So, went out hard and it def killed me. Didn't want to go to singles on thrusters even though would have been faster for sure. Shoulder was killing me. The Burpees were worst on shoulder.  Pull-ups, not hard but was slipping off bar so bad after first round. Fuck!!! That's about all have to say. Mentally was hardest. Go to get on bar at times and just couldn't. Something was dying and unsure what it was. Just mentally week today. Frustrated, only word I could use to describe today.
