By the way, just a comment in general - i think i failed the CSCS test. :( Walked in there VERY confident, felt like I knew at LEAST enough to pass, if not more... but that confidence was quickly replaced with "HUH?"

The test was nothing like the practice tests, nor was it anything like the questions in the text book, nor was it anything like the guy in the review class reassured us it would be.

I struggled on almost every single question except the nutrition questions.

Guess I'll know the true outcome in 6-8 weeks.
sounds like some of the Microsoft exams....don't suppose they have any 'exam cram' type books? (hopefully, u did very well and won't need them!)
 
2nd O-Lifting Phase, Week 2 Day 2 (wednesday)

Hang Snatch
45/3 x 2 sets RI 60
55/2 and 1 miss x 1 set RI 60
55/3 x 2 sets RI 90

notes: the fourth set was really sloppy, the fifth was better after i rested the extra 30 seconds. Form is iffy. I wish p had been able to watch me because i feel like i was doing it wrong. But sometimes when i think i did it wrong, he actually says, "That was GOOD!" So what the fuck do i know.

Clean and Front Squat Combo
65/3 and 5 x 1 set
75/3 and 5 x 3 sets
80/3 and 5 x 1 set *
RI 90

notes: I am a fucking idiot. I am so mad at myself for not going for 85 or even 90lb on that last set. 80 was a breeze. I hate that i keep underestimating what i can do.

Split Jerk Off the Rack
65/3 RI 45
70/3 x 2 sets
75/3 x 1 set
80/3 x 1 set
RI 60-90 more or less

notes: i started off moving kinda slow, and even pressing out the first 3 reps i think. But it was more of a self-doubt thing coming off of a disappointing last clean/front squat combo.

Good Mornings
75/10
80/10
85/10
RI 30

Chin-Ups
15 total, in four sets (4, 3, 4, 4)

notes: that set with just 3 - i didn't rest long enough i guess before starting again.

Abs & stretch

I think this workout sucked. :( I don't care what anyone said. I am mad at myself for not going for it.
 
you shuold have just bumped the weight up to 90 and done another set. if you feel strong and it is there...go for it!

2nd O-Lifting Phase: Week 2 Day 3 (Friday)

1-Arm Dumbbell Snatch
25lb/5 x 4 sets
30lb/5 x 1 set
RI 60

Hang Cleans
75lb/3 x 8 sets
RI 60

notes: my shoulders were really sore today for some reason, so i kept the weight manageable and worked on just my technique and speed

Back Squat
145lb/10 x 3 sets
145lb/7
RI 60

notes: i had no spotter so i had to set the pins where i could go down to parallel but could leave the bar on the pins if i got into trouble. P saw me and made all sorts of disapproving faces and yelled at me, "that's terrible. stop squatting if you're going to do that." I got mad at him. :p And kept squatting.

Additionally, I was not feeling as strong today. Very tired for some reason, so instead of trying to icrease the weight i just did four sets of 10 (or tried to!)

Cable Chest Press
15lb/15 x 2
15lb/13F
RI 30

WG Pulldown
#4+/15 x 3
RI 30

Hey SPINQUEEN!
How are you?! Email me please! I have an old email address for you and it gets bounced back!
 
Cardio: Intervals, 12-11-05

10 Sprint Intervals - I did these in a small room, so each "sprint" was actually 16 laps back and forth across the room. They were killer, but it was an excellent opportunity to work on my start/stop and switching directions (which I'll be starting up again in late january to train for the obstacle course!). I did ten of these, raising my heart rate to 85-90%, and then resting until it came down to 64-65%.

After these sprints, i did ten bouts of 100 speed jumps on the jump rope - again, going by heart rate - 80-81% work interval, to 64-65% rest interval.

Total time, 26 minutes.
 
Sprints are awesome. Sometimes they leave my upper legs and calves sore the next day or so afterwards. Most people wouldn't expect such a thing just from sprinting, but damn it can be demanding if you really give it your all!
