I also set a PR in the box jump at 44 inches. Most importantly, I got my first muscle up during the quarter!
It has been a fantastic first quarter to the year, I jsut have to remain focused and keep pushing myself. I'm trying to refine the motions int he lifts by using lighter weights. Form is going to mean more and more as I try to get higher weights. Jake and Evan are helping me a lot, but it's really going to come down to me taking the time to practice and practice some more.
Refined Goals
I think I may use this week to try and set some of the PR's that I havn't tried in a while so I can fill in this a bit more. But Below are my re-adjusted goals on some of the lifts I have completed my goals already on.
OHS: I'd like to get to 190 by the end of the year.
Snatch: I'm shooting for 155 as my year end goal.
Isabel: I'd like to complete Isabel RX by the end of the year (30 - 135 lb snatches)
Karen: Lets try to get about 8:15
Fran: Sub-5 minutes
Jerk: 225 is my new realistic goal
Clean: I'm shooting for 215 as my new Year end goal
Complete 10 MU's in under 3 min.
Hopefully the second quarter starts off well during the competition at BWI. I think we're bringing 2 very good team for their respective divisions. The rx team should do very well and will surely compete for the title,although every team will be bringing their best. Our Scaled team (of which I'm a part of) should be good as well, I think we're a true scaled team as we can perform many of the movements but there are still a good deal that most of our team can not pull off.

This illustrates one of the reasons I stopped doing CrossFit. Lack of consistency in the lifts/movements. It was so long in repeating a lift, I couldn't set clearly defined goals. The infrequency also meant I lost strength in my core lifts: squat, deadlift and press (redundantly known as "shoulder press") all went down. I'm not sure about bench press.
ReplyDeleteI prefer a consistent and progressive routine, I personally get more out of it that way.
