Backyard Barbell

My parents got the Girls Gone Fit Haus a barbell plus metal plates while they were in town. Thank you Mom and Dad! The barbell + Myriam's 12kg kettlebell + Tribe sandbags + 50# kettlebell + random PVC pipe = Lory's Backyard Barbell.

Tonight I broke all of that equipment in and did:

3 rounds
10 burpees
50 double unders

10-1
Deadlift
push press
power clean
All using 65#, not setting the bar down until in between rounds.

3 rounds
15 Russian swings (50#)
10/10 L/R KB snatch (12 kg)
1 dead hang pull up

Whew! That felt great! Just in time for tomorrow's Mustache Throwdown with the guys at Atomic Athlete and Westlake Crossfit. Come join at Zilker park at 9 am! I think the girls are going to try to paint on dirty 'staches, it'll be a sight to see!

  1. Tough strength training makes you feel great like nothing else! According to fitness instructors, the best ways to prevent overtraining, which is often resulted in muscles soreness, is proper nutrition and switching the types of your activities. I have been searching for related articles and find a lot of good advices and professional expertise at http://militarygradenutritionals.com/blog/sports-training-tips/pissed-off-find-out-if-youre-overtraining-and-heading-for-injury-with-bad-personal-sports-training/
