Just Like Old Times

Weight: 273.6

Today I am headed back home to get a tattoo with an old friend. We planned this when we were in high school and I didn't really think it would every happen. I think this is what we are going to get, but we will see how it matches what I end up with.

On the exercise front I have had an up and down week. I went everyday this week to Crossfit (knowing that I wouldn't this weekend). I didn't perform like I would hope. My back still hurts, but I don't want to use it as an excuse. Today we did

For time:
1 Hang Power Snatch/Overhead Squat/Ring Dip
2 Hang Power Snatch/Overhead Squat/Ring Dip
3 Hang Power Snatch/Overhead Squat/Ring Dip
all the way up to 10
Run 800 meters
10 Hang Power Snatch/Overhead Squat/Ring Dip
9 Hang Power Snatch/Overhead Squat/Ring Dip
8 Hang Power Snatch/Overhead Squat/Ring Dip
all the way down to 1

I scaled (of course) with just the 45lb bar and jumping on rings and trying to support my weight. I got past the 800meters and did 10, 9 and 8 but that was it. I seemed to have to stop all the time. I am ashamed. The run was more of a walk. Going uphill my calf started cramping, but that was after I had already slowed to a crawl.

On a positive note I weighted in (post work out in nude) at lowest weight yet. I was in a hurry so didn't do body fat%.
