MaryStella Posted November 18, 2010 Author Share Posted November 18, 2010 thanks viva! warmed up on the trainer for at least 5 minutes then morning then hit the wod which was making me feel my legs after yesterdays deads. 9 minutes on(maybe didn;'t warm up enough legs still sore), 20 secs off (this felt like nothing, maybe brought my hr down a bit) 7 minutes on, 30 seconds off (again not feeling like much of a recovery), 5 minutes on, 40 seconds off, 3 minutes on, 50 seconds off, 1 minute on. Even had to push myself through the shorter times as my legs were tired. Felt like a good workout. Still didn't get the distance to work on my garmin. I contacted them about it. I wait and see what they come back with before heading to the bike shop. cf wod - 10 rounds of 1 minute on 1 minute off max rep pullups. I hate this wod. I pretty much dislike any wod with a high number of pullups because I always know Im going to have torn up hands after it and true to form i have 2 tears on my left hand and 1 on my right. Probably because I kip the pullups. I feel like the hardest part of this wod was the pain in my hands instead of the pullups. round 1 - 17round 2 - 18round 3 - 16round 4 - 16round 5 - 16round 6 - 15round 7 - 15round 8 - 15round 9 - 14round 10 - 15 total - 157 bfast- 2 cups soy yogurt, 1 cup blueberries, 2 tbsp ground flax seed,1 scoop vega sport performance proteinsnack - 1 scoop vega wfo w/coconut water & 6 almondslunch - 24 grams tvp, 1/2 cup onion, 1/2 cup salsa, 1/2 cup black beans, 9 almondssnack - 1 scoop vega wfo w/coconut water & almondsdinner - 8 ounces tofu, 3 cups broccoli, 1 cup carrots, 1/2 cup onions I wanted to do another biking wod today because I still feel really energetic but my legs are sore from yesterdays beating so I am letting them recover.

MaryStella Posted November 19, 2010 Author Share Posted November 19, 2010 swim - warmup 250 - felt like doing more but figured the lats were just not going to be less sore with anymore warmup from yesterdays pullups. 500 yard tt with a t-shirt on. This was the best this workout has ever felt. Normally dragging the tshirt along drags me down but I felt stronger swimming with it this time. It was still making me hurt but I liked it. By lap 2 i was feeling it. I sadly forgot my watch so I don't have a time for it. Then 1,000 of drills as follows:2 rounds of 100 switch100 catch up100 finger tip drag100 with paddles100 kick CF Thrusters! Legs still a little sore. Hands still a painful mess from the pullups. lats have joined the pain party. Did a lot of stretching and foam rolling between sets.Thrusters (front squat into an overhead press)warmup 45x5, 50x5,55x5,60x365x1, 70x1, 75x1, 80x1, 85x1, 90 x 0 (fail) 85x1, 85 x 1, 90 x 0 (fail). This felt weird I didn't have trouble with the 85 but I couldn't lockout the 90 on either attempt. I almost wish I did more reps at 85 instead of starting lower. bfast - 2 cups soymilk, 1 cup strawberries, 2 dates 1 scoop vega sport performance protein, 2 tbsp ground flax seedsnack - 2 scoops vega wfo w/coconut water, 12 almondslunch - 8 ounces tofu, 3 cups broccoli, 1 cup carrots, 1/2 cup onionsdinner - 30 grams tvp, 1/2 cup salsa, 1/2 cup black beans, 1 red pepper, 1 green pepper over romaine lettuce Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaryStella Posted November 20, 2010 Author Share Posted November 20, 2010 xx/xy partner team wod - kyle and I took second place! event 1 - 100 partner situps. team sits facing each other and must do them together and touch each other shoes at the top. We won this event! I knew this was going to be a strong event for me going into it because after fighting I have good core strength and can whip through situps fast. 3:14 was our time. both of us were actually having issues with our ab balls rolling out from under us but we never broke our cadence and we smoked through them! event 2 - Move 10,000 lbs with 1 bar equally as a team as follows. xy - Clean & jerkxx - deadliftSince kyle and i are both athletes not mathletes we decided to use a 100 pounds and switch back and forth after 5 reps for 10 rounds. This was an excellent strategy as we won this event! we went smoking fast and honestly it was really easy for me because 100 lbs is a light dead for me so kyle would bang out the C & J's and I would catch the bar off his drop and grip and rip the deads without any issues. I actually was able to just romanian deadlift them because of the weight which worked better because it is faster than having to setup for them. Someone told me afterwords that I looked like I was just shrugging the weight. Time 5:27. event c - 100 partner wallballs @ 16lbs - if anyone drops the ball - 25 pushups by both team membersxy - because using womens weight had to do 3 med ball cleans for every wallball.This is the event I was most concerned about because I normally use a 14 not a 16 and I sometimes have accuracy issues with wallballs. but i was so focused on this that these were the best wallballs I have ever done! There was no way I was dropping the ball and doing the pushups because you would be out of the comp time wise if I did that. I never put the ball down and every throw I had was picture perfect because i wanted them to count. I swear I have never done a wod where I was able to count every single wallball and never took a break doing them. Honestly I think it was because i got extra rest time when he had to clean it so I was never hurting and just felt strong when throwing. I like having the pushup penalty and the partner for these because it really pushed me to get through them. And now that I know I can do these well I am not letting myself off the hook on them when I go solo! We came in second in this event with a time of 8:50. event d - 100 burpees for the team - only one person can be doing burpees at a time and each person must do 25 each time before switching. The catch is the male has to hold a 155 lb deadlift while the female does burpees. and the female has to do an isometric squat hold while the male does burpees. If he drops the bar or if she comes up out of the squat then the burpees are stopped until your partner is back in the hold. I didn't do my burpees as well as I would have like to because the standard was that your hands had to come off the deck for the pushups. I have never done burpees like this before so I think I was taking too much time to ensure my hands came off the deck. I did well in them but I think I can do burpees faster and would like to go at this again. Also the squat hold was a fucking burn in between the burpees but i wasn't allowing myself to come back up. That is where the team stuff is so great for me becasue if i were alone I don't think I would have made myself suffer through that without an occasional rest. We took second in this event with a time of 6:53. Total team time was 23:44 which was good enough for second place. I actually felt find from this workout as it seemed one of the easier ones Ive had lately. I immediately went to the pool for the team swim. swimwarmup then drills of kicking on our backs with our hands extended over headed. Not sure how many laps we did of this but it was interesting I never have done this before. 5 rounds of the following 100 sequence25 - kick on back hands overhead25 -free25 - sprint freestyle (wanted a high stroke turnover)25 - freeI have issues swimming in a straight line when on my back like this. I have no idea why it was kinda funny. then 10 - 50s on a minute - these went ok - i still think too much about the other people in my lane and i clipped the lane line a few times with my hand. then 5 - 100s on two minutes - these also went fine. It's weird I didn't felt like I was swimming as hard as I could be yet I didn't feel like I could go any faster. Maybe that means it was a consistent effort instead of an all out effort. maybe it cuz I am swimming with other people and not just getting into my own space and rhythm I don't know. I think swimming around others so much will help me when racing next season because at some point I will be more accustomed to it. bfast - 1 cup soy yogurt, 1 cup strawberries, 1 cup blueberries, 1 scoop vega sport performance protein, 2 tbsp ground flax seed, 9 almonds snack - 2 scoops vega wfo w/coconut water lunch - 8 oz grit tofu, 1 cup red beets, 1/2 cup black beans over romaine lettuce. I feel great after all of this. It was really fun doing the team comp today. snack - clif builder bar - 6 almonds dinner - 8 ounces soysage, 2 red bell pepper, 1/2 cup onions, 1/2 cup pinto beans, 1/3 cup salsa over romaine lettuce, 6 almonds Good news I got my garmin fixed.

Barb123 Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 Just checking in to say.....wow...once again I am still blown away with your endurance! Hope your foot gets better and/ or they figure something out that helps you. If you have some spare time would you mind giving me the recipe for grit tofu? I would appreciate it. Thanks once again for motivating me to keep trying different things and persevering with an injury. I have been having trouble with my foot again....the one that I've broken twice so I am hoping it isn't refractured. In the mean time I am icing it and taping with rocktape which helps a little. I hate taking time off so I am using you as my role model to keep on going through the pain. Take care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaryStella Posted November 21, 2010 Author Share Posted November 21, 2010 Thanks barb! sorry to hear about your foot put you've got a lot of upper body work you can do around the foot to keep yourself training! Grit tofu recipe - I take a package of tofu and press the water out of it. I get most of it out since I usually do it overnight. Then I just saute it in olive oil. Once it is golden I hit it with some tamari while pulling it off the heat. Then I dust it with Nutrional Yeast. Stir it around until the NY coats it and it's done. It is my adaption from the grit restaurant cookbook where they have you frying the tofu twice to get the water out. I Just don't find it necessary to do that if you drain it properly. Hope you enjoy it. It is so fast easy and yummy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barb123 Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 Thanks for posting the recipe, I'll be trying it this week sometime. I hear ya on the upper body, so tomorrow I'm hitting the chest and shoulders, bis and tris. I have been breaking my cardio, mostly on the elliptical instead of running, into 3-4 20 min. sessions, which helps some. Just makes it extra tough to fit it in on workdays. Thanks for the encouragement. Take care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaryStella Posted November 21, 2010 Author Share Posted November 21, 2010 Your welcome barb! Hope you enjoy it! There are so many things you can do from rowing, riding a bike, an arm bike. swimming, etc. double bike day today Started the day with 32 rounds of tabata on the bike trainer. 20 seconds on and 10 seconds off. posterior chain was hurting. covered 4.61 miles with a avg 13 mph avh hr 140. I was able to get my bike out on the road today for a 2 hours ride. I did 1,732ft of climbing. After about the 1st hour my lower back was killing me. I pretty much had to will myself through the entire second hour of the bike as I was really hurting. Not sure if it was from the cold, the climbing, the combo or just not enough in the tank today. I was able to keep moving on the bike but towards the end of the ride it really was just to keep moving instead of really riding. Covered. 23.34 miles in 1:56. avg 12 mph. 138 avg hr. I was a little disoriented getting off the bike. bfast - 2 cups chocolate soymilk, 1 cup blueberries, 1 scoop vega sport performance protein, 2 tbsp groundflax seedlunch - 2 scoops vega wfo w/coconut water & 15 almondssnack - clif builder bar - 3 tbsp peanut butterdinnder - 6 ounces grit tofu, roasted yams (not feeling well after ride and had a hard time gettin food down)snack - sprouted grain bagel & almonds - finally started feeling better and had this as it was close to bedtime. not a good zone ratio but it was something I could stomach at the moment.

MaryStella Posted November 22, 2010 Author Share Posted November 22, 2010 woke up sore this morning, most likely from the bike beat downs yesterday. Food wasn't the greatest yesterday and I think it affected my recovery. But today is another day so Ill be better about it. I was just so tired after the ride yesterday didn't feel like eating/cooking etc. swim - 200 to warmup, tried to loosen up a bit, somewhat sucessfully then 500 of drills.100 - switch, 100 catch, 100 drag, 100 paddles, 100 kickHad a 30 minute Time trial to do. In fantasy land I wanted to hit 60 laps for this TT as that would give me an approximate oly distance tri swim at 30 minutes. Now I didn't actually think I could do this but I would be totally stoked if i did! My 30 minute alarm went off while I was on my 58th lap if I counted correctly which is always an issue for me when I get a high lap count. Again, athlete not mathelete. Finished it off with breaststroke. So my official lap count for the swim was 57 completed laps at 1,425 yards. So less than 75yds short of where I wanted to be. I liked this higher time trial because it really forced me to focus on swimming hard for a long time which I know when I get tired the form start getting sloppy and the speed starts going down but I really tried to stay on it when I noticed myself slipping today. Maybe If i was able to just nail it the entire time I would have hit it. next time! It was still a solid effort as my swimming is def getting better but it isn't as good as I would like. CF WOD "Lynne"5 rounds of max repsBodyweight benchPullups I modified this workout a bit. I wanted to use dumbbells instead of a barbell so that I had to stabilize the weight which I just think is more important is my shoulder strength than putting up bigger weight at this point. Why? because I didn't want the good shoulder compensating for my surgical shoulder. Also I didn't count the termination of the pullup set as a dropoff from the bar but rather if I didn't immediately jump back up into the kip it was over. In trying to decide what weight to use it warmed up with 20sx 5 (40)30x5 (60)35 x 3 (70)40 - fail - wow i haven't benched in awhile. I've had 45s up in the past for my 1 rep max. lynne DBP puround 1 3 /15round 2 4/10round 3 3/9round 4 2/10round 5 3/8 This felt pathetic. The pullups were crap because my hands are still a mess from the last day of pullups so they were bleeding which didn't make me want to really go after it on the pullups. I was annoyed with my bench so afterwards I did some more work on it since I had very few reps during the wod. did a max set at the following with dumbbells.30 x 925 x 1120 x 2025 x 1030 x 635 x 130 x 5 bfast - 2 cups chocolate soymilk,1 cup strawberries, 1/2 cup blueberries, 2 tbsp ground flax seed, 1 scoop vega sport performance protein ( this froze or something and was ridiculously thick but it's all i had so i had to deal with it) 9 almondssnack - 2 scoops vega wfo w/coconut water & 12 almondslunch - 8 ounces grit tofu, 1 cup roasted yams & ruttabagas. 15 almondssnack - vega vibrancy bardinner - 8 oz grit tofu, 1 cup red beets, 24 talks asparagus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaryStella Posted November 23, 2010 Author Share Posted November 23, 2010 thanks lobster. now if i swam that same distance in 20 minutes instead of 30 i would agree with you. gotta keep working on it! swim - 200 warmup. feeling the chest from the bench yesterday. 10 rounds of - 100 yards and 10 pushups. 1 - 1:372 - 1:463 - 1:504 - 1:515 - 1:466 - 1:487 - 1:498 - 1:529 - 1:5210 - 1:48I have never hurt as bad in a swim as I did doing this wod. It was good for me though. I never had to break or rest on any of the pushups. It was basically the 100 immediately out out of the pool onto the deck, banged out the pushups with the hand release (which hurt like hell because of the benching yesterday) then slid right back into the water for the next round. The pushups really fatigued me for swimming.I actually started feeling a little better in the middle of the workout but by the last 3 i was pretty cooked. I felt so hot swimming like i couldn't cool off. then 500 of drills100 switch, 100 catch, 100 drag, 100 paddles, 100 kick. I am obsessed with paddles. I want to swim with them all the time!100 breast stroke to cool down cf wod - "karen" which is 150 wallballs for time. I used a 14 lb ball and hit it between the 9 and 10 ft target. 14lbs at 9 ft is women's rx for cf. Time 14:25 I tried to find the last time I did this but haven't been able to yet. Just curious to see the time difference. My wallballs were looking better. although my chest hurt on every throw and catch. so my fruit smoothie with protein powder gelled into a disgusting mess again today.

MaryStella Posted November 26, 2010 Author Share Posted November 26, 2010 11.26.10 swim - 200 to warmup. Then 30 rounds of 50s on 1:20.Times ranged from 41 to 46 seconds. I was able to maintain the pace fairly well for a long time even though I was hurting on the rests. Got sick after the 28th rep but I was still able to make it through the last two. Even though it was a reasonable rest time I think it was just the high number of reps that got to me. It wasn't a big deal,all i had in my stomach was water. I felt really hot in the pool today though like i couldnt sufficiently cool off. I wanted to drop my water over my head.

MaryStella Posted November 27, 2010 Author Share Posted November 27, 2010 bike - on trainer - 5 minutes warmup then 3 rounds of 9 minute TT on 3 minutes rest. Round 1 - 2.19 milesround 2 - 2.19 milesround 3 - 2.22 miles CF Wod - 10 rounds of 10 pullups and 10 dips. I was dreaing this one as neither pullups nor ring dips are my thing. I wore gloves ecause my hands are still a mess. They helped a little, no tears this time but my hands are still a red puffy mess. Time was 21.24 but I wasn't really going for time because my ring dips were done as negatives. I would press/ jump myself off the ground into the top of the ring dip and lower myself as slow as I could. All pullups were done kipping. Just happy that one is in the books.

MaryStella Posted November 29, 2010 Author Share Posted November 29, 2010 Just finished another month "in the zone" so here's an update on that. First - the numbers! I lost an additional 4.1 pounds with a correlating 3.6 pounds of fat loss. body water percentage, muscle mass, bone mass and visceral fat stayed about the same. The only other change was my metabolic age dropped another 9 years to that of a 16 year old. I did add blocks and up my fat over the course of this month which slowed the rate at which I was losing weight. It needed to be done I was having too many times where I felt like I was going to pass out. Just not enough calories to support my daily activities. I still didn't get the time to read my zone book and I really need to do that! I tend to eat a lot of the same things over and over again because I know their zone values and I don't have to think about it but I would like to get away from that as I do believe variety is important to get as mant different nutrients into the body as possible and i think it makes it easier to stick with a program like this if you don't get too bored with it. I think the biggest change from my regular diet was how much brown rice I was eating. I didn't think I was eating a lot of rice then but since I basically eat no rice now it seems like it was a lot in comparison. I also basically cut bagels out too. In regards to performance I have definitely seen better swim times. I doubt that is only related to diet. I am sure it has more to do with spending more time in the pool drilling and training. I did have some CF pr's over the last month but more of the metcon variety then actually being able to move more weight around. Sometimes I think I just don't do enough heavy lifting to actually see my weights really go up.Overall things are going well. Steady as she goesThought my legs were feeling good til i got on the trainer to warm up. Did a 5 minute warmup and then into the torture wod. 30 minutes of 1 minute on 1 minute off followed by the even more fun 30 minutes of 50 seconds on 10 second off. Covered 9.98 miles. I wasn't able to ride as hard the back half of the wod but I did ride a consist effort with a good heart rate for the whole thing. Flirted with pukie a decent portion of the workout but I think that was because I ate too close to riding. Food has been weird the last few days. Not much of an appetite not finishing whatever I make etc. I've also been sleeping a lot longer than normal. bfast - soysage, red &green pepper, onion, pinto beanslunch - vega wfo w/coconut water, steamed broccoli & hummus, 2 tbsp peanut butterdinner - 6 oz grit tofu, 2 slices vegan pizza, 2 tsp peanut butter well here we go againyou've found yourself a friend that knows you wellbut not matter what you doyou'll always feel as though you tripped and fellso steady as she goes - jack white Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaryStella Posted November 29, 2010 Author Share Posted November 29, 2010 swim - 250 warmup. then 20 x 100s on 20 seconds rest. The 100s started at 1:39 and got slower each round by 1 seconds til i got to 1:42 i was able to maintain that for a few then it was slower by the second until I got to 1:45 which is where the rest of the reps ended up. Did this with my friend jeff who was kind enough to watch the rest clock for me and to beat my ass in every rep. 100 breaststroke to cool down. cd wod - the much hated "Fran"! at women's rx which is21 - 15- 9 of65 lb Thrusters ( from the ground - front squat to overhead press)pullupstime 8:26. 10 seconds faster than last time I did it. I lost some time taking gloves off during the wod. I was trying to protect my hands because they are such a mess but I just hate wearing gloves. I also dropped the bar a bunch of times so I had to clean it everytime from the ground. I also ended up doing a lot of 1 rep pullups so I had to reset the kip everytime, not the fastest way but I made it through it. I always dread this workout. It is one of my least favorite. bfast - 2 sccops vega wfo w/coconut waterbfast#2 - 2 cups soy yogurt, 1 cup blueberries, 2 tbsp ground flax, 1 scoop vega wfolunch - 6 ounces tempeh bacon & vega vibrnacy bardinner - 7 ounces grit tofu, 1 cup yams Bob Dylan summaries my feeling about fran below in positively 4th street.You got a lotta nerveTo say you are my friendWhen I was downYou just stood there grinning You got a lotta nerveTo say you got a helping hand to lendYou just want to be onThe side that’s winning You say I let you downYou know it’s not like thatIf you’re so hurtWhy then don’t you show it You say you lost your faithBut that’s not where it’s atYou had no faith to loseAnd you know it I know the reasonThat you talk behind my backI used to be among the crowdYou’re in with Do you take me for such a foolTo think I’d make contactWith the one who tries to hideWhat he don’t know to begin with You see me on the streetYou always act surprisedYou say, “How are you?” “Good luck”But you don’t mean it When you know as well as meYou’d rather see me paralyzedWhy don’t you just come out onceAnd scream it No, I do not feel that goodWhen I see the heartbreaks you embraceIf I was a master thiefPerhaps I’d rob them And now I know you’re dissatisfiedWith your position and your placeDon’t you understandIt’s not my problem I wish that for just one timeYou could stand inside my shoesAnd just for that one momentI could be you Yes, I wish that for just one timeYou could stand inside my shoesYou’d know what a drag it isTo see you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaryStella Posted November 30, 2010 Author Share Posted November 30, 2010 lower back still tweaked. didn't sleep much at all last night. swim wod - warmup 150, 50 pull, 50 pull& paddle, 50 pull 4 x 300 yds on 2 minutes rest with pull bouy & paddles. I love swimming with paddes even though it is slower I feel like i am able to work on my stroke more. I like that is forced hand entry position. I read a great quote about swimming stroke being like moving yourself hand over hand through a set of rings. I really focused on anchoring my hand down on the entry and rotating my body through the pull. I recorded my times but honestly i really wasn't focusing on going as fast as possible as much as I was going after the form today.1 - 5.532 - 7:48 - I totally lost track of laps and there are def extra in this one3 - 5:454 - 6.55 extra laps again as i lost count Decided to swim a 300 with just the pull buoy and drop the paddes just to feel it, time was 5.49. Then decided to drop the pull buoy and actually just swim a 300 and time was 4.48.100 breaststroke to cooldown. CF WOD - 20 minute AMRAP ofRow 400 meters10 Shoulder Press @ 55lbsRounds - 7 completed. was over 20 minutes by 5 seconds but i had 2 issues where i had to stop and reset the rower so im counting it as 7 round since i lost time on that. The shoulder press started out strict but ended up being a push press since my arms were really smoked from fran yesterday and the swim wod this morning. I made the call to push press it because i would have lost a lot of time and slowed down the wod if i had to strict press it. It felt better this way to keep the wod moving. breakfast - 2 scoops vega wfo w/coconut waterbreakfast#2 - 2 cups soy yogurt, 1 cup blueberries, 1 scoop vega wfo, 2 tbsp ground flax seedlunch - 7 ounces tofu, 1 cup roasted yamssnack - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob PMFF Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 So did you buy and read the Soy Zone book? I was thinking about getting it, after what you said. I see you wrote that you haven't read your zone book yet, is that the one? And what do you mean blocks? You can select your desired calorie intake and base the diet off of that? I want to look into this more. I don't cook dinner but once in a blue moon, so I was thinking if these recipes were simple enough, I might start using them to take some of the cooking burden off of my wife. Plus I'd like to learn more about the benefits, and what I should expect out of following these rules if I choose to do so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
