I fucked up

Took some green tea, a men's one a day and apple cider vinegar pill like usual but usually I take them later in the day.  Ran for 2 mins and hauled ass downstairs to puke.  Puked up one pill

Just ran 16 more minutes and felt better but still shitty.  Going to just try to do the lifting

I did the run and the first set of exercises

I finished the 2nd round of deadlifts and started getting a sick feeling again and first time I puked out the men's 1 a day pill and this time might have been the green tea haha

I still felt like I did a bit of work

Tomorrow no pills
I want to run, do back work and Oly lifting and finish the WOD.

Gotta move my equipment to the basement before we get real snow.

Also have an interview next week, so depending on the schedule if I get that job my workouts will be different and possibly just buy shit and workout in the basement.

I can't sleep for shit

Woke up yesterday with a big headache and everything ached.  The night before I was extremely hot and felt like garbage.  I think the workout with all the deadlifts did work on my upperback and neck so I have a lot of knots and shit causing my headaches.

Anyway got my testosterone test done
522 ng/dl which is avg or a lil higher on the average side for 30+
Waiting on my thyroid test to come back, had to send it to London so might take awhile.

Ran 4 miles
Went from 1 incline@5.5mph x 3 mins
Then same speed but increased the incline overtime from 1 to 4.5 for the first 3 miles then I did a 6mph 1 mile run at 1 incline for the last mile.

Cleans: 185x3
195x5x2
So I changed my form and it made a dramatic difference.  Normally I'd set up like a deadlift so elbows right align with my knees behind the bar.  Now I have my knees over the bar and shoulders slightly over.  Doing this made me feel like I was more centered when I got the bb to my hips.  Then instead of really exaggerating the hip and upperbody with the last part of the extension I stayed more upright which kept the bb closer to my body for the catch.

Anyway I did strain my back and neck earlier in the week that's why I haven't done anything and it's better now.  I'd really like to get into focusing on Oly lifting more though so I might look up a program and then keep the running the same and all that just more Oly lifts minus snatches.  If I had bumpers and a good gym to do then then I would but now I'd like a place where I can confidently dump the weight of need be.

After that I did some dead hangs for grip

Gym is now open on Sundays so I'll go every day.

Yesterday I ran 4 miles and benched.  When I left my house I could see grass, by the end if my run we had like 3 inches of snow and I didn't have my winter tires on.  So I left after the bench. 

Today
 Ran 20 minutes but still over 2 miles
It was so cold in there that I kept getting dry mouth which ruined it.

I did some oh pressing, db shoulder work and tricep

Pool area
50 JR
10-1
Wb
Burpees
The jr were before each set

My buddy I was working out with is back for the winter so I wanna try more partner wods and what not.

I'll try to plan out something for tomorrow

The treadmill is definitely fucked.  It was skipping and it won't incline

Yesterday I did like 6mph first half mile then 7 or so for the rest and did 1.45 in 13 minutes

Today I did 6mph for half mile then 7 for a quarter, 7.2 for a quarter 7.6 quarter and 8 for the last and literally went .05 faster.  Id assume I should be way faster which makes me think this thing is off

Ran 3 miles

Deadlift to 345x1 and 315 before that was like 5 reps

Cleans: no straps or belt just liquid chalk up to 235x1
New PR since like 2015 but that was with straps.
I feel confident and once I get my deadlift back comfortably to 400s or 500 I wonder if I can get a 300lb clean.

Either way the change in form has helped a lot.

Now db work with hammy curls

So I should say that this is all power cleans.  The 235 my body basically was forced to squat a bit to get it and it was ugly.  I tried 245 but that would have to be an actual clean.

squats help power cleans more than deadlifts do

When I powercleaned 245lbs I could squat 385

for a 300lb powerclean you would need about a 475lb squat :)

This WOD is going to be bad

5 rounds
5 cleans
10 snatches
15 push ups

4 rounds
8 oh press
15 thrusters

3 rounds
15 box jump
15 air squat

2 rounds
20 lunges
30 wallball

1 round 50 burpees
39:15

Just got done running 30 minutes

It wasn't a rough WOD until the 2 rounds and then the burpees.

I did decent on burpees until halfway then I'd feel sick after doing 5 at a time.

Gonna sick in the pool area where it feels like a sauna now and then head out. 

Tomorrow will be a back and Olympic day with 20 mins of running just to get a warm up in that won't impact my deads and cleans.
