21 - 15 - 9
- Deadlift, 225-lbs
- Handstand Push-up

Good day today! Didn't feel too bad cardiovascularly, strength on the HSPUs was the limiting factor. And I got to do it without shoes!

CrossFit - 7Mar (pm)

"Diane"

21-15-9
- Deadlift, 225-lbs
- Handstand Push-up

This was a tough one after this morning's ass-beating. The DLs felt OK, I broke them up into a set of 11 and 10 on the first set, and 8 and 7 on the second set. The set of 9 was straight through. The HSPUs were KILLER after all the push-ups we did this morning. Started off with a set of 5 and then was quickly reduced to sets of 2s and 3s.

CrossFit - 1Nov

"Diane"

21-15-9
- 225-lbs Deadlifts
- Handstand Pushups

New Globo-Gym rule: Shoes must be off while doing Handstand pushups against the wall. I'm not too upset about that, at least we're ALLOWED to do HSPUs. I didn't stop the clock for putting on and taking off my shoes, so figure my actual time was around 14-flat...but that's nothing but an excuse.

"Diane" - 17Sept (pm)

"Diane"
21-15-9 of:
- 225-lbs Deadlifts
- Handstand pushups (wall supported)

Ken and I shared a bar, so we were breaking up the sets to work in with each other (11/10 reps, 8/7, 9 straight); cost me about a minute, minute and a half tops. The deadlifts were pretty tough, but I felt alot better about my HSPU than in the past. I was going pretty deep (not quite touching the nose to the deck, but trying my ass of to get down that far). The first 6 or so were legs off the wall for the pushup, touch again to regain balance, and then go back to unsupported. Big difference (obviously) but I'm trying to slowly work my way up to full sets completely unsupported.

Do the math real quick: the total weight moved with the Deadlifts alone was 10,125-lbs (!!!!) in just over 12 minutes. Not to mention the 45 HSPU at bodyweight. I moved nearly 20,000-lbs in this workout. Now THAT is power output! Gotta love CrossFit!
