A lovely day + time machine treat at the end

Happy 2/14!

I am tempted to make my own emhsieh's vday wod consisting of arithmetic-variations of 2/14 exercises. A 2x14 circuit perhaps? Or 2 miles in < 14 minutes? :P etc.

A weekend wrap-up: blizzard. rugby. food.

I kept thinking while shoveling about how I would blog about it
"AMRAP shovel right-arm dominant 30sec on 30 off"
"EMOM toss ~15# snow as far as possible"
"3 rounds: 20 left-arm dominant scoops, 20 right-arm dominant scoops, rest 1min"
"squat shovel, single leg shovel, deadlift shovel, snow thrusters..."
you get the idea :)

2/13 workout: Boyles
roll, knee exercises, dynamic warmup + calisthenics
quick circuit:
3 x 5 2-legged hurdles, double hop in between and stick last landing
2 x 5 each leg wall ball on the ground, staggered stance, explode out w hips and arms

lift:
3x5 snatches (55) form!!!
2x10 toe-touch-to squat (12# ball)
2x12 in-line lift (15-18R)

3 x 5-6-5 bench (100#) WOOOOOO! almost to my life goal of 3x8x100!!!
3 x 5-5-7 RFE split squats (70, 80, 80)
2 x 30sec R-L-R TRX arm stretch

3x12 TRX rows
3x8 DB SLDL (22.5)
2x30sec standing anti-rotation holds (16-16.5R))

Sled pulling. 15m up, 15m back x 4 (180 x 3, 225 x 1)

I did it I posted!! Sorry I haven't kept track of food. I will say, my mom made delicious tilapia the other day. mmmm

In addition, I always think of "Song for the Sues" that wePloi wrote for Suno and Sudo on valentine's day 2009.

No privac-ay
This Valentine's Day
If you lose your jobs
You know that Brown's a blast
She can coach the fowards 
And you can coach the backs
...
We don't hate 
Don't have to play it straight
Our head coach is the gayest of the gays
...
We don't hate 
Don't have to play it straight
Annalisa is the gayest of the gays

because I don't want to do work right now
