Feb. 23
Low energy day
Bench: 10@45, 10@65, 5x5 @ 102
Children home for family/business/therapy meetings of which I do not need to participate, but I still deal with the drama. Had a lovely vegan dinner at my S-I-L's and then got smashed until 3 AM with my 21 year old daughter. First time I got a chance to talk to her alone in a couple of years! I love her! She gets me like no one else.

Bench: 10@45, 10@65, 5X5 @102. Last set butt came off the bench on last rep. Felt heavy.
Squat: 10@45, 5@95, 5@125, 5x5@150. Snappy!
Erg: 3 min. x5 3500m
Went to the Chiropracter. Major adjustment. She still can't believe I can walk, let alone do this other shit. She is coming to my PL meet in April.

Bench: 10@45, 5@65, 5@100x5 These felt super easy today.
Squat: 10@45, 5@95, 5@125, 5@150x5, also pretty snappy!
Had to move a bunch of equipment around and going to my parents to help them pack up their house, so I've probably had enough for the day.
It is quite an effort to go through a 5K sq. foot house that your parents have lived in for 40 years and distill it down to what will fit in their new 2 bedroom cottage. They, and my brother and sister and I have been working on this for a few months now. The hardest part; the photographs. My father took a lot of pictures, slides, movies and videos. We just threw the movies away, his projector doesn't work, and none of us remember what's in them so we won't miss it I think. 15 carousels of slides from 10-15 years of Haiti dental trips. Tossed. We all went there and remember what it looked like and we do have many photos of more recent trips.
Today, my sister and my Dad and I went through the first 4-5 carousels of slides of family photos. 1958-1965. My parents were HOT in college and I was an adorable baby! My sister was not such a pretty baby but she was damned cute by the time she was 6 months old. We didn't even get to the ones with my brother. My role in this family is to be the bossy one. I left my sister and my dad with the task of putting all of the slides into the newer carousels and packing them up with the screen and projector for my sister, brother and I to review this summer to pick the best 1 or 200 to transfer to digital.
I am so thankful that we get to do this process with healthy, active late 70's parents! So many people go through this after a death. We learned today that my niece looks a great deal like my mom did in college, my grandfather who died before I was born is a dead ringer for my brother, and my parents were once young, and beautiful and handsome and cool! And my mother was a very stylish dresser! My sister and I kept saying, "great dress!". "Look at those shoes!" I am sort of anxious to show these to my kids.

Didn't do so good with the eating/drinking today :(
On a high note, I traded a gym membership for dog grooming with a guy who has a mobile grooming truck. He brought the rig to his workout today. Meri and Zoe usually happily wag their tails when someone pulls in the driveway, but when the Dirty Hairy Pet Services, Inc. truck pulled in they went off like we were being invaded. I think they knew something was up :) He had a good workout and Meri and Zoe look and smell fantastic. Meri is still on her fainting couch. She won't forgive me until tomorrow.

Feb. 9
I haven't quite "fit in" on several training forums, but still see the need for some accountability in regards to my training logs, so I'm going to put it here.
Goals: Power lifting meet in April. Summer or Fall do first competition in a throwing event. Given that I am almost 50 years old and have a significantly crooked back, I don't expect to look like a fitness model, but I do have a spare tire to get rid of, which I know how to do, I just really like wine.
All comments, unless very rude and nasty are appreciated. I don't mind my training called into question with constructive suggestions to do otherwise.
My basic weekly stuff:
Sunday: 1 hour on the C2.
Monday: Squat and bench. Crossfit WOD
Tues.: 30 minutes C2
Wed.: Press, DL
Thurs.: 30 min, C2
Friday: off or Crossfit WOD
Sat. : Bench and Squat
I row an average of 27K a week (I erg to warm up on lifting days). I find that the Crossfit workouts tend to make me very sore so I think I need to incorporate some of the movements into my warm up on lifting days or on erg days.
Today:
1K erg
Bench: 10@45, 10@65, 5@97.5x5
Squat: 5@45, 5@95, 5@125, 5@155x5
Diet was good except for a couple of exceptional brownies and a few too many glasses of wine.
