So much fun in Moncton. Fact: Canadians will chirp anyone about anything – which makes them awesome.

BBG:
Off of 220 and no misses
STRNGTH/SKILL:
1a) all UB and good transitions
1b) 255/275/295/315#(3/5) 7@270#… been working with a chiropractor to get my messed up back/neck/hips all aligned. Trying to build my strength back up now that all my muscles are firing in the right order and the over compensations are going away.
COND:
12:27… walks were 50′ down and back (2 rds UB). KBS were done in sets of 8 & 7’s. KB OHS all UB.
Did you do all 45 KB OHS with the same hand, or 2 rounds with one, 1 with the other?
Plan was to go right, left, right but ended up going all right because my shoulders were smoked and if I used my “weak” arm I would be there for awhile. I know this is a weakness so after the metcon I did some work on using my left arm to do KB OHS at 24kg.
As a side note, my imbalance in stability in arms/shoulders is a symptom of my neck/back alignment so all this chiro work is helping me to feel more equal and stable.
Bbg: off 215
Strength: 1a) 2MU on all rounds except 1MU on last
1b) 275 , -25lbs but dealing with some hip paid,+1@250×6

Strength/Skill:
1a) Done all UB
1a) This is so frustrating, I see all your numbers I’m over here doing 245 (265×3)…..I was doing 245 for 10…..it could be because I lost a lot of strength from my half iron man? I don’t know but whatever the case is it pisses me off that I just don’t feel strong squating.
Conditioning: Different
That Ironman caused you to miss out some of the program, am I right? It only takes a week for your muscles to get deconditioned from whatever kind of training you were doing. That coupled with a grueling endurance test is not the best cocktail for building strength. Just stick with it, it will come back. You touched the barbell today, that’s a positive, focus on that. None of us did a half ironman, so you have that on us.
Preach Randall…. +1!
If everyone walked into the gym and got better every single day then I bet you more people would be in the gym (i.e. getting better is FUN!). But, we all know that this isn’t the case and what separates the good from the greats is how they handle those “speed bumps”! The mental game is so huge when you look at the macro training picture and when the going gets tough, just keep pounding! Training for your Ironman may have taken some of your squatting strength, but I bet it helped in some other area of your physical ability (silver lining?).
Keep being awesome!
Randall and Peter said it all! Don’t sweat the small stuff man, just take everything in stride. I’ve been having some of the same feelings because I’ve been missing a lot of workouts lately. You will get back to where you were!
Whatever happened to Outlaw Masters?
Is that ever going to happen?
+1?

WOD 150615:
BBG: 135-145-155-165. This is more than Rx, should be off 210#, but these feel really smooth
Strength/Skill
1a) done UB, smooth
1b) up to 285 (4) then 250×8. I have done all I can to increase squat, terribly weak I feel. I chalk it up to long distance running up until about 4 years ago. For me, this was a big lift, my 1 RM was 280 just about three months
Conditioning: done with 24 kg. Didn’t start the timer like an idiot. Not upset about it though, now having to endure 113 degree Phoenix heat working out of garage. It’s going to be a long 3 months…
