That's still pretty solid. I hope to get 185. I plan to start with 155 on the bar cause I know I can chuck it up real fast in case I'm close to the 12 mins.11:15 and 195lbs. Very disappointed. The added 15lbs of fat from Christmas has slowed me down. I was hoping for 10mins and 210-220lbs.

My cardio is better than my strength. But if I clean over my weight (180) I'll be happy. I didn't sign up for the games but am still doing the workouts to see how'd I do.
Well I got to they gym yesterday. Stretched and started a very basic workout. 10 GHDs, 10 Cal Assault bike, 10 50# DB Thrusters, 15 Cal Row.
I was like wow my legs all of a sudden feel really good. Not as tired as they should of been. Then my buddy came in to redo 18.2 so I started cleaning with him. That felt much better than Saturday. So long story short I ended up redoing it 40 mins before scores were do and shaved almost 45 secs off and hit 207 on the clean. I had 212lbs all the way up but could not get under it do to my legs being dead.
^I wish our world was not in such demand for stress relievers. Somewhere along the line we did something wrong.
Saturday is brick day
ride: 7x9min @285 watts on 5 min recovery
run: 8 miles @ 6.19 min/mile
Sunday easy ride 2hrs @210 watts
No, I actually agree with you. I do the same as far as trying to be better. It's the other things that put people into over-stressed mode. Things like traffic/bad drivers, obnoxious people we have to work with or deal with, bad news on the telly whether it's political or violent in nature, family drama, etc. Basically things beyond our control.some people will disagree with me, but my stance is that if you're not the least bit stressed, then you're not pushing yourself---whether its to improve at work, school, be a better parent, husband/wife, etc.
I ran 8 miles and biked 15 min hard for a cool down last night at the y. this was after a day that started with me getting my kids up, ready for school, packed lunches, dropped them off, and did 11 joint surgeries. this was an unusually busy day for me, but this was a good end to the day. I left the gym completely relaxed and ready to finish the day off and start the next day with zero stress
ran 6 miles last night after work, there is a park near the office with miles of trail, beats the hell out of sitting in traffic.
shit, that's crazy. what are you training for? I'm assuming half ironmans or at least full tri's??
Good for you man.Chest. Got the 100lb dumbells up for my flat bench press and 90's on the incline. Felt good, especially while being in a caloric deficit trying to lean out for summer.
