The swings slapped me silly. Add in the ridiculous humidity and you only get 10 rounds from lazy ol’ me >.< Pain on left wrist worsened after the workout and instead of just feeling the sharp throbbing pain at certain angles, I’m feeling it throughout the whole day. FML. Been feeling it for the past two weeks but thought it would go away. I was so wrong on that front -______-” Have to head to the tit tar tomorrow during my lunchbreak to get it checked. I hope I don’t have to rest too long *sobs*

Went to the Oriental Tittar at Seapark, got my wrist checked aaaaaand the dude basically said I’m overexerting my wrist. And need to rest it for two weeks. I looked at him when he said that and I just went “0.0. Two weeks??!?!?!”.

Apparently it’ll be even better if I can rest my wrist longer. According to him and deep down inside, I know he’s right. But dammit, TWO WEEKS of no upper body workout?!?!!? *sobs*

Ok. That still leaves me with lower body workouts – running, squats, lunges, I can go swimming, I can lift weights with my right hand, practise one hand push ups, etc. Positive thinking! 

Heal fasta oh left wrist! Like nowww!!

300410 (Friday)
Had only 2 hours of sleep the night before and shot a pre-wedding session which wrapped up at noon. Even though I was absolutely knackered, the itch to go for a workout was way too strong for me to resist. So in between of my deliveries, I dropped by Pushmore for the WOD.

Kinda crazy to think that I managed to get through the day with that little sleep. I’m so knackered its not funny and this is definitely something I shouldn’t be doing to my body >.< Have been working like mad to meet my deadlines and I’ve just been taking in as many shoots as possible. Y’know, to save for a rainy day? Gonna take a break from working out on Saturday and take it easy (after my morning ROM shoot of course ;p)

Attempted WOD042910 which involved medicine ball cleans and pull ups but after the first round of 45 pull ups and 45 medicine ball cleans (5kgs), I DNFed. Maybe I’ll COD (continue other day :p) sometime next week.

Wavered a bit during the last set of presses 0.o The WOD was a short and sweet session, did only 12kg though :p Didn’t wanna push myself too much cos of the lack of sleep. Hur hur hur.

02052010 (Sunday)
Took the day of work (finally!! :D :D) and went bouldering at Mad Monkeyz. Oh my heart was willing but my fingers were not 0.o Cleaned three routes and made endless on two others. I’m gonna be feeling some muscles I haven’t felt in a long time tomorrow >.<

McGhee
Complete as many rounds in 30 minutes as you can of:
275 pound Deadlift, 5 reps
13 Push-ups
9 Box jumps, 24 inch box
Results: 9 rounds + 3 deadlift
The above are the advanced, RXed figures. I lowered my deadlifts to 60kgs and replaced the 9 box jumps with 20 reps of 10kg overhead walking lunges. The deadlifts and pushups were a-ok but I was whacked silly by the walking lunges. It was when I was doing the third round of the lunges that I questioned my sanity in replacing the box jumps. I’m sooo gonna feel my quads tomorrow 0.-

WOD042010
5 Rounds For Time Of:
15 Handstand Push Ups(HSPU)
15 KB Swings @ 24kg/16kg
Results 9:59
Enjoyed this breath-taking (literally!) workout. That being said, HSPUs weren’t full range, still halfways but with the constant practise, I’m inching towards head to floor :D Yay! *heart* HSPU long-loooong!

IMMA GONNA BE BIG

Overhead Barbell Press
:: 20kg, 20kg, 22.5kg, 22.5kg – 10 reps for the first two sets, then 8 and 5
Deadlift Highpull x 10 reps
:: 20kg, 20kg, 20kg, 20kg
Frontal Lat Raise x 10 reps
:: 5kg, 5kg, 5kg, 5kg (both sides)
Side Lat Raise x 10 reps
:: 10lbs, 10lbs, 10lbs, 10lbs (each side)
Farmers Walk 400metres
:: With 2 x 16kg KB
Summary: Been awhile so it felt really good to be hitting the weights again and just channeling Ronnie Coleman’s “Nuthin but a peanut” mindset ;p The overhead barbell presses were quite a struggle as I felt myself over arching at times. The frontal lat raise with the 5kg plate was ok, except for the fact that my grip on the plate wasn’t strong so towards the end, I actually had to break it down into 3 – 5 reps per set. As for the side lat raise, cheated towards the end by using momentum to get the weights up, but controlled the downwards movement. I am so gonna feel my shoulders tomorrow. And you know what? I think I’m gonna enjoy the DOMS :D
