Baseline

Its hard to track progress if I don't post my beginning numbers, also i just completed my 2nd week so I'm still getting some baseline numbers on certain exercises, and some movements will be very low weight until I get more comfortable performing the exercise.

Weight: 178lbs (to be fair its currently May 5th, I start basic CF March 22nd and am already down 10lbs) By the way, this is going to be a post here in the near future, but I hate the idea of "weight", its just a number and has no bearing on if you're healthy or not.

Kb Swing - 53lb

Pullups - 8 in a row. Pullups will always be my big test, because i've always struggled with them especially pull up endurance. On long pullup workouts, I still scale with a band.

Overhead Squats - 25 lb bar. This is the most humbling exercise, but its good to be humbled.

Power Cleans - 85lbs, not a max but my 10 rep weight.

"Helen" - 10:07. This is a benchmark exercise of 3 rounds: 4oom run, 21 Kb swings , 12 pullups. The pullups were very assisted (see jumping from a box).

Thrusters - 65 lbs rep weight*

Front Squat - 65 lbs rep weight*

*for both thrusters and front squats, the weight is a bit low as I'm working on form over sheer weight.

Push Press - 125lb

Deadlift - 135lb rep, this was performed in basic and we haven't done it since. The rep weight will probably go higher next WOD that has deadlift.

Wall Balls - 16lb medicine ball

  1. correction: weight is just a number if you're not FAT (which of course you aren't). don't let fat people get the wrong idea.
