This took a lot out of me. Great workout.
97 reps – 135# bench/165# DLs
Still major issues arching my back on the DLs. Need to reset and concentrate on keeping my form. Big chest.
BIG MIKE – YOUR COMMITMENT AND SPIRIT IS AN INSPIRATION. GOOD LUCK IN THE COMPETITION TOMORROW!
…AND GO ARIEL! CFM IS RIGHT BEHIND YOU BOTH.

After a week of WODs full of things I could barely do or not do at all, I was stoked to see this! I agree with Jared that this took a lot out of me and my 3 minute rests were closer to 4 at the end. I was not sure when to stop in the earlier rounds. I know it’s “max” but it seemed silly to do 241, 341, or even 441 reps just to get a couple more in when we had many rounds left to go. I tried to go all out on the last couple rounds.
@Dale – I would like to see you break 200 in this.
The only thing bad about this morning was that it had to end. I had so much fun.
Bench Press. No deadlifts for me due to tomorrow’s comp.
27-17-12-14-10 or 80 reps. @ 135 lbs.
I want to add this small editorial also. Sign up for a competition. Any competition. I can not stess enough how it makes you focus on your workouts and keeps you motiviated. It is not about wining or losing. Its about the way it makes you keep your eye on the prize. Okay, I will step down from my soap box.

Hotel wod
Annie NFT – NFT because it was impossible to find space to do both dus and situps in the same place. Someone kept getting in my way. Not to mention I worked out next to 2 girls doing “deadlifts” with 5 lb weights – my favorite part was when they said their hands hurt!!’
Bloody Mary time
Good luck Mike, Brad and Ariel!

Brad R aka plug pilot popped into the gym at the end of the WOD. Was great to see him. He looked like a well oiled machine all raring to go for tomorrow.
Best of luck to him, Mike and Ariel.
Ambrose, I am probably going today @ 4:30. I don’t workout on Sunday – the kool aid is not that strong!

165 felt light on the DL, but I was having trouble keeping a grip on the bar after the first two sets.
best of luck to CFMers Big Mike, plug pilot and Ariel.

Is anybody going to the Far Hills Race aka the Hunt tomorrow? If so we have a tailgate at spots 234-235 and you are welcome to join. We have plenty of food and alcohol. I’m guessing any of you who grew up or have lived in NJ (other than EJ) know what the event is.
For those who don’t it is a fundraiser for Somerset Hills Hospital and takes place out on a farm in the country in Far Hills NJ. There are 6 world class steeplechase races and people come to watch them and tailgate in pre-paid numbered 10 x 20 spots which are catered with food and beverages. So you are out in a beautiful setting watching the fall foliage and exciting races while tailgating among about 40,000 other patrons.
Tomorrow is going to be sunny in the mid-high 60′s and is absolutely a perfect day for this event. The website for the event is:
http://farhillsrace.org/
So if anyone is going and wants to stop by our tailgate, or has interest in going, email me at zimbah1@yahoo.com

Clean&Jerk – 153, 163, 173 .. All felt good.
Strangely decided to Snatch after that.. I always Snatch then Clean & Jerk. LOVED it because all lifts felt SO light at first -
118-123-133-138-143.. Caught 148 on one knee.. Wahhhh :*(
Decided to go down and work my way back up again with Mike videoing a few lifts with Coaches Eye (very cool App)
Went down to 118 and Worked back up to 138.
A little sloppier towards the end because I must have been a little tired, but it’s nice to be able to nail the 128 & 133 so easily and consistently again. 153 would be very nice
FREAKING OUT!!!!!… About to watch Ariel!!!
I hope you guys are all tuned it.. I’m so nervous and excited!!!

(Last time we did this wod, I only got 3 rounds or so in 12min cap, with 115#. I see it as an improvement, especially with the DU’s)
Got lapped by Eroc. I hate being lapped. But I guess if Eroc is the lapper it’s not so bad.
