Darkness

I went to bed at my usual time last night 9:30-10:30pm (cuz I am that exciting!), and woke up around 12:30 wide awake. Tossed and turned until 1am until I decided to just get up and do some housework done. Finally about 2:30 I felt sleepy again. This time I made my room EXTRA dark. Either I was finally exhausted or the extra darkness really helped. I think its the darkness, actually I know its the darkness.  I toss and turn a lot if I don't close my blinds all the way or leave the DVD player on. As soon as those go off, I'm down for the count. Why I keep pretending like it doesn't matter, who knows....

Didn't get to workout on Monday :( but am geared up for tonight. This will be the first time I have deadlifted since my back pulled a few weeks ago. It has been a looooog time since I have gone heavy in a deadlift as well. Looking for at least 245# tonight!

Fran and a Rant

I'm still running around busy as usual and not really training. I have been having trouble in my front squats. The right side of my back feels like its about to blow when I hit 195# in sets of three. The first one goes alright but the next two are frightening. I haven't gone up in weight for fear I will really pull something. Plus its really hard! I am pretty sure I have done over 205# for three to five. But I also thought that was on vimeo but I guess that was only like 165# or 175# so maybe I really haven't done sets at 205. Hmmm. I set a max pullup record. Old record was like 11 or 12, got 16 the other day. I think I could have done more if I regripped a little better but I lost it and fell off. I am still horrible at pullups. And finally I attempted "Fran" today (21-15-9 reps of 65# thrusters and pullps for time) I was dreading this. I can't even remember the last time I did this I think it has been over 6 months but I know my time was 6:46. I was hop...

This was AWESOME!

I tried the intro to trapeze a few weeks ago, but his was a lot more intense! I went to an aerial fabric dancing workshop. This was very challenging but a lot of fun. Especially because have a problem with being up high (I wouldn't say I am afraid of heights- I just happen to panic when I notice I am up high that's all). I don't think I would have been able to do this had I not gone climbing/bouldering a few weeks ago and got a little more comfortable with my strength and trusting myself.  Also I officially climbed the rope at the gym for the first time the day before, again the up high thing.  So the first picture I am doing the 'gazelle' (?)oh  I wish I had pointed my toes.  The next pictures I don't know what the moves were called but I got to do a drop.  You get your legs wrapped in the fabric (the diaper- wow uncomfortable- you can see my butt being squished), and you have to pull yourself up, pull your legs through, cross and pull legs through again....
