youch
squats: 255 x5, x5, x3.
bench: 150 x4, x4, x4.
I had to quit here because I blew up my back on the squats. Ouch. And then I forgot to post because I went home and immediately medicated myself.
Great to see new mom Ms. Hedda posting again. We had all members of the glee club posting in the last couple of days!

Not retarded
No, I am not. There was no way today's crossfit was fit for right minded people: 5 rounds of 21x95lb sumo-high-pull-deadlifts and 21 ring dips.
So I changed it up a little to suit a more down to earth person: 4 rounds of 21,15,12,9 80lb sumo's and dips. Time was 17 minutes.

Instead of taking a shower
The last time I went to the gym/worked out was almost exactly four weeks ago. That was the day before my due date. Fully recovered from giving birth (for a while now, it feels like), the gating factor on working out now is finding the time.
The baby fell asleep for a few moments this morning, and I opted for a mini-workout in the living room, instead of napping or showering.
40 squats (body weight)
12 push-ups (the regular kind)
40 squats
12 presses (45 lbs)
40 squats
12 push-ups
40 squats
[Feed and change baby, quickly shower and eat lunch while he sleeps again]
15 presses
It's a start, anyway. I'm hoping to make it to the gym, at least once, this week.

Got a few in...
...last week.
Sunday was a homemade, in the backyard cross fit.
Warm up with 205 deadlifts x 10
Then 3 rounds for time of Power cleans, 135 x 5, run 400m, 20 push ups. Time was 14:20.
Monday was a 5 K run (at home on the ridiculously hard to-Tache-and-back route). 23:20.
The rest of the week was lame ass. A little bit of frisbee on Thursday.
Sigh. I am going to pot. Seriously, I really want to get high.

6k - 32ish. Killer hill included (impossible to avoid when you live in a valley!)

Slowly back atter
Tuesday, a short workout, as in "I forgot my shorts". Nothing to do but go back to work.
Wednesday, Crossfit Helen: 3 rounds for time 400 m run, 21 50 lb db swings and 12 pull ups. My ipod went under and I had no stopwatch after the first run. Runs were 1:22, 1:30, 1:45. I ixnayed after the last set of BD swings...I had to wait for the pull up bar and I was pretty much going to yack. That was at the ~19 minute mark.
Today, Cross fit Danny: as many rounds in 20 minutes of (substitute for PP) 24 inch box jumps x 30, 90 lb Push Press x 20 and 10 straight hang pullups. Let's just say the box jumps and pull ups were easy. 3 rounds in 20:20. (it was supposed to be 30 pullups!! Kipping, but still!)

Here is a workout for you...
Labour and Delivery. Wow! I never want to try anything this. This looks to me like the kind of thing that separates the jogger from the 5K Olympic athlete- 100% mental. Mind over body. And, when it all works out, you pop a new being into existence at the end of it. Then you have, what else, breakfast!
Friday was a 5k on my very difficult home route (down to Tache then back). The way back is slightly inclined. I swear. Time was 23:40, followed by 100 push ups in 8:30.
