Hell Night Preview 2014

To start off I will explain what Hell Night consists of for those of you who do not know. Each year my brother and I get some friends together and try to replicate the famous Navy SEAL Hell Week over the course of 36 hours. Obviously we can't do everything that is done in Hell Week, but over the last few years we have figured out some good challenges to do. This year we will be staying up for 36 straight hours working out almost constantly. The first workout will be a heavy workout because we will be fresh and as the day and night continues we will get more and more tired which will give us a greater chance of energy. (Which means we probably should not go heavy later into the challenge). 

 The first workout will be…

 "Crossfit Total" 
Back Squat 1-1-1
Shoulder Press 1-1-1 
Deadlift 1-1-1 

 If anybody is in the area and wants to hit this workout up or for that matter the entire Hell Night shoot me an email. 

 The events after this will be mostly team based. Around hour 30 we will resort to games like Burpee ping pong, Rowling, frisbee golf, ultimate frisbee, pool races in 37 degree water, etc. And there will be a punishment for the losing team for each game. 

 And the last event of the day will be to eat a dozen Krispy Creme donuts… for time!! 

 I am thinking this will be the 29th through the 30th of December.

"Goodman" For time:  1 Clean and Jerk 225#  100 ft Sled Push 225#  2 Clean and Jerk 205#  100 ft Sled Push 225#  3 Clean and Jerk 185#  100 ft Sled Push 225#  4 Clean and Jerk 155#  100 ft Sled Push 225#  5 Clean and Jerk 135#  100 ft Sled Push 225#  14:28  I have never done sled pushes mixed with another movement before this. It was quite a quad burner. The sled pushes really slowed me down. The clean and jerks weren't really a problem; I went threw them fast every round. Turning the sled around was also a pain. Next time I do something like this I will just push the sled the full distance instead of stopping, turning around, and coming back.  Overhead Squat 1-1-1-1-1  135, 155, 185, 205(f), 225 I felt very unstable under the bar for some reason. It might be because I just did goodman, but I still need to work on it even if it was because I was fatigued.  5 rounds alternating with a partner:...

Legs feelin' quite Toasty

My legs are feelin' quite toasty today. Literally I can barely walk. I decided to take a rest day and try and recover by stretching out. Hopefully I can go at it hard tomorrow.   I hate taking rest days, because in my mind I feel if I'm not putting in work then someone else is and they are getting better when I am not. At the beginning of the year I made a promise to myself that I would be the hardest working crossfit athlete in the country. So far id have to say that has not happened; for many reasons. I started the year off with baseball which took quite a bit of time away from training. Then soon after baseball started I broke my hand, which put me out for about 8 weeks. NOW. . . I'm back full force and ready to kill it! I have treated this week as a getting back into it type week. Next week, I'm going to put my best foot forward and start training at 100%. I will be starting back up with the second phase of Smolov on Monday, and will continue to focus on b...
