Dec 19 & 20 - Shane's WOD

Dec 19 - With my Dad and Brother, loaded and unloaded 137 rectangular bales of hay.  Not super intense, but still great functional fitness exercise.

Dec 20 - "The CrossFit Total"
3 attempts each lift, CrossFit journal rules followed.
Standing Press: 155-170PR-175Fail
Back Squat: 225-315-335PR
Deadlift: 375-395PR-x
900# total PR

Well, three PRs on one day... definitely can't complain about that.  I tried not to get greedy on the back squat and deadlift even though I know I still have more there, especially on the deadlift.  I decided to take the advise of many experienced lifters and take a measured longterm approach knowing there will be another day for another PR.  Very happy though.

Karen and My brother Cruz did this with me as well.  I'm hoping I can remember their numbers...

Karen:
SP 75-85Fail-70
BS 185-x-x
DL 185-225-235PR
490# total PR
GREAT JOB KAREN!  Nice work on the deadlift, you are getting there!  Awesome!

Cruz:
SP 85-95-105Fail
BS 135-155-185
DL 185-225Fail-200
480# total
Awesome job Cruz!  This was his first ever CrossFit total and his first ever 1RM attempt at any of these lifts, so technically they were all PRs!  Cruz weighs about 135#, so this was a great job for him, especially for his first try.  We will re-test him on these lifts at the end of Christmas break and see how much he improved.
