  • Still not recouperated (terrible spelling there) from “Murph” I’m looking forward to this one.

  • After Murph on Monday and then the squat jumps yesterday, my legs are still toast! I am feeling every muscle. Glad today is a rest day. See you all tomorrow.

  • Didn’t do to great at this one 14:14 @ 70lb, it was murder on my wrists and I had to stop an tape them half way through.

  • came back from the games really pumped up and decided to do Elizabeth at 95#, which would be ladies’ rx’d weight. The ring dips weren’t so bad but full squat cleans were a little rough after an impromptu Murph yesterday and 5×175# deads right before. Finished in 22:38 nonetheless.

  • okay I feel like a loser at my 55lb now .. anyhoo … am thinking about ordering precision nutrition .. wondering if anyone is familiar with this.

  • …well on the nutrition note…in an effort to try and cut back on too many carbs…I’ve been eating 2 tbsp per day of hemp seeds (high in protein apparently)…I eat it when I feel I need protein – especially when I am on the go…and have no time to cook…

    Does anyone have input on hemp seeds…?

  • Took 6 days off in a row, ate 2 ice cream cones, 1 lb of fudge and drank a lot of beer while camping… that being said today felt great!

    Elizabeth ladies rx’d 20:33. First time doing full squat cleans. Ring dips are coming along, still working on them.

    “Well…hemp has a balanced n-3/n-6 ratio but It’s not really giving you a leg up in that regard since the n-6 is pretty high and the n-3 is short chain. Off the top of my head I guess it’s as good as any other nut but DO NOT CONSIDER THEM A SOURCE OF PROTEIN!!! It does not elicit a glucagon response…it’s a 3rd world protein. Good enough for vegetarians, not for you!”

    In a ‘nutshell’, seeds are fat. More protein = meat/eggs/milk/yogurt/whey

  • Great job, Crystal! I’m jealous of your ring dips!
    wow, this one was a toughie after Murph! been feeling lightheaded lately, so cut back on the ladies rx and the ring dips in an effort to save my rotator cuff…so I did 75# and dbl pushups. Holy mother it was still challenging!!! Shoot, can’t remember my time…12:07 or something? :)

  • thnx M….@MLC

  • Can not lift anything off the ground yet so I did “Annie”
