Getting ready to go

It's raining so gonna do either the small track or dreadmill.  35 minutes I think should be good.  Probably keep it at 10 min splits or a lil slower.

Then probably just bw stuff.  Tomorrow I'll hit back legs and Oly lifts with a run.

Run: 18 mins on short track then 17 mins on treadmill
I was playing with pacing for a lil bit, I can kind of comfortably keep the 12 min pace for 1.5 miles.  I need to do 12:59.  The hills have made running on a flat surface easy af.
My normal pace was about 40 seconds per lap(12 min pace is about 28 seconds)

Did a tabata
10:27 with 15 second prep time
20 on 15 off
Push ups and sit ups and I threw in jj when I felt a cramp coming in my abs or my shoulders were getting worn out.

Resting for a bit and gonna do another tabata or wod

Air squat
Push up

Couldn't think of anything else, I'm too worn out for burpees.

Up in weight cuz uk a lot of cardio and gym time with eating pretty decently means you gain weight lol wtf
I am super hydrated so idk it's fucking annoying.  Going to count calories to see where I am at.

Yesterday's calories was 1313 without my lunch, I forgot what I had.  It definitely wasn't like 1500 calories worth.

If I'm not working Midnight's this weekend then I have a stupid WOD in mind for tomorrow.  If I am then I'll do the normal workout I posted earlier.

I talked myself into a rest day and got bored so I went.  My gym is connected to the school so my goal was to get in and out before the buses lined up.

Running intervals
1 mile
30 on 30 off
My off was 5mph and on was 6 starting and increased 2mph each one.

Mile 2
On started at 6.3 mph and off was 5.3

Mile 3
On started at 6.5mph off was 5.5mph

2 min rest between miles

Did some deadlifting, lat pulldowns and leg curls.

Going to run today before work.

If I get a chance to run outside next week I'ma do the hard route.  The hard route would be essentially just going back the same way instead of looping around.  This way I get more hill work and on the hills I'll try to Sprint up them.

Run today will be idk 2 miles or something depending on how I feel.

Ran 2.58 miles
Time: 24:25
Avg pace-: 9:28

Ran the same route on October 4th and did it in 26:40

I felt like crap cuz I hate running after I eat but I had to wait for the weather to get a bit warmer.  Right now it's pretty much perfect running temperature.

This may sound stupid but towards the end I figured out how to run.  I changed my style a bit and I felt just as good cardio wise but I was moving faster.  Will do it tomorrow, Wednesday, Thursday are all looking good.  Tuesday and Friday look like rain.  If that's the case then Tuesday Fri will be interval speed days.

Ran the short route the one that's like 1.9 miles
I think I averaged 9:11 splits

With hills and being 40 degrees out it's not that bad.

Did basic push day stuff, bench, oh press, shoulder dbs, cable chest and triceps.

It's supposed to be 60 out by 2 so I'll go for another run then. If I run again now I'll half ass it.

It was hard to get motivated, I was cold and couldn't get warm so I felt like I was getting sick with a headache.  I talked myself into just seeing where I am at for a 1.5 mile run after running already and working out.

I did it in 12:48
Goal is 12:59
So with sore ass feet along my arches, tons of knots in my back and feeling like crap I beat the target.  I hope once I peak and get massages in I'll be able to do it comfortably.  I kept it on my road that had minimal hills to make it someone similar.

Anyway, thinking of trying to add some distance to my runs, my long route is about 3.5 miles or whatever so looking to try to add a half mile to it.  I think ik how so I'll test it out Wednesday.

Bike 20 minutes
Right knee is aching along with feet.

Cleans up to 215
Snatch: drill work up to 120
Hang power snatch to 145
The drill work was swing the bar against your hip or thighs in a hang clean position and on the third one bump it and focus on pulling your elbows up and following through with it.

So thats all I did, with my foot and knee ache I didn't want to push it so figured it'd be good to rest for tomorrow.

Tomorrow's workout

Stretch
Run 3 miles
3km row
600 single unders

WOD 2
Deadlift: 135x10
Db thrusters x 4 reps
Deadlift: 165x12
Db thrusters...
Deadlift: 185x15
.....
Deadlift: 205x18
....
Deadlift: 215x20
.....
Deadlift: 225x25
This one is going to suck

Then I will see how I feel.

Honestly I kind of want to go to the fire department.   That way I can focus on cardio but also getting strong.  Their tests are more strength oriented but still having decent cardio.  There's one in April so that might be an option.

3 mile time was like 28 minutes
3Km row idk

Then the deadlift WOD

I went with 10-12-14-16-18-20
135-155-175-195-205-225
Then 35lb db thrusters, I wanted heavier but people are using other dbs so there wasn't any 45s and like 1 40lb db n shit like that.

I'll hit cable crunches and call it, that WOD fucking killed me.

Got turned down for the job.

Used the same excuse as the last few times and used the same excuse for other people.  So basically it's a bullshit lie, all Anheuser Busch cares about is what family tree within the company you belong to and looking "diverse."
I've always been in the belief that the most qualified person deserves the job but that isn't their standard.  During the hiring they had a few meetings with managers asking for recommendations, my managers flat out told them, he interviewed, he did great in it, now just hire him already.  But no, they went with a kid who can't do conversions, doesn't know how to transfer between packers, can't start up the equipment and can't fix issues with the machines.  But uk, his qualifications was his sister is best friends with a useless manager who acts like she's constantly hungover and he knew another manager before getting in.  I had the pleasure of working with him over the weekend and I decided to not babysit, as soon as I did that, I came back from break and he massively fucked up.

This has severely pissed me off considering how much of a fucking liar that incel ops manager is and it's lit a fire under my ass(if thats a thing)

Oh yeah another girl they hired, missed 2 months of the season( it's 5 months long) for a broken arm and she still got hired cuz her uncle is a higher up.

Anyway, gonna focus on the fitness test n shit.

Oh yeah gonna go into the basement and do a night workout.

Tomorrow idk yet, I'll plan it out when I'm done.  Consist of running, stairmaster, maybe some back work and wods and a half hour bw workout

40 minute easy jog around the track

Db rows@50s-60-70-80x10
Lat pulldown: 3 sets of 2 different handles x 10
Bicep curls

WOD in my signature: previous time was like 17 minutes, I can't see my signature right now but yeah 17 something.
Current PR: 14:22

So yeah I am leaps I'm conditioning beyond what I was when I last did that WOD. 

Difference: this time I took 1 short break to get some water(maybe 10 seconds)
Previously I remember breaking up maybe rounds 9 and 8..maybe 7 with small breaks throughout.  This time I went unbroken on everything.

Only way I can speed up is just moving fast on my jump ropes and just being able to do burpees as easy as Dan Bailey.  Even then I think the fastest with more training is maybe 12 minutes and that's pushing it considering the jr takes about a half minute every time and take off a few seconds for going a bit faster.

Either way that felt good and slightly improved my mood.

So yeah September 9th was the first time I did the WOD in my signature.  So in what a month and a half I've cut like 5 minutes off my time.

This weekend has been a rest weekend.  Tomorrow I increase running volume to at least 4 miles.

Then press day for tomorrow with bw stuff.

Not sure of any wods but I'll probably do a push up and sit up tabata.

Run: Strava says 4.94 miles I think but idk if the signal cut in and out on the trail but whatever.  I figured it'd be 5.5 miles.

I just tried to do a natural cadence, didn't push it and felt good, could have had a conversation the whole time.

Went back and did some push day stuff

Bench: high reps from 95lbs to 185 then back to 135
Right front delt is irritated, idk if I just need to stretch it or what.
Did some oh pressing for triples
Db chest press
Cable flyes

Then tried some bw stuff but I was taxed, maybe the run taxed me more than I thought it did.

Walked for 1.5 miles.

So far today I'm at roughly 6.5 miles between running and walking.  Going to watch a video and run again.

Looking at idk 3.5 miles to make it 10 for the day, will do the same until Wednesday then Thursday it's supposed to rain.
