The past three workouts have been really hard, and looking back at them is extremely satisfying as an overwhelming sense of accomplishment washes over me. On thurday I did the heavy version of the notorious FRAN. My time was just under 9 minutes, but it was an awful experience and I wish this workout upon no one. I think I can now go out and do a sub-5 FRAN no prob.
Saturday's WOD was at the EPFD training facility and it was a ton of fun. It was short and sweet, but left me quite sore this morning.
Today I made up my own WOD which turned out to be much harder than I initially thought it was going to be. It goes like this:
(with a 25 pounds vest on)
21x 20 ib ball cleans
50 m farmers walk with 2 pood in each hand
21 pullups
50 m farmers walk back to the ball
15 ball cleans
50 m farmers walk
15 pull ups
50 m farmers walk back to the ball
9 ball cleans
50 m farmers walk
9 pull ups
50 m farmers walk
21 push ups
50 m farmers walk
21 push press (95 ib)
50 m farmers walk back to push up station
15 push ups
50 m farmers walk
15 push press
50 m farmers walk back to push up station
9 push ups
50 m farmers walk
9 push press
It was pretty awesome and it took me 18:30. The workout was a little long for what I am trying to accomplish (putting on mass) but all the farmers walking should help build up my traps and forearms.
The nutrition is still dialed in as always. I don't know any stronger or bigger but I know that I am headed in the right direction and will be putting on quality muscle in no time.
Its been a while since I put on one of my zone/paleo recipes, so here we go.
Awesome omelet and apple/pecan pie (4 blocks 5x fats)
2 whole eggs w/ 2 egg whites
2 tbsp of parmesan cheese
4 tbsp of chunky salsa
1 cup of unsweetened apple sauce
2 tbsp of lite coconut milk
1/4 cup of pecans
w/ 1 cup of 1% goats milk (sun harvest)
This is pretty much the greatest thing to eat after a tough workout.
Enjoy!

You should definitely feel a sense of accomplishment after completing those WODs.
Heavy Fran was downright vicious!
