  2. I discovered Paula’s show last week at work. I each episode is a rollercoaster of emotions. Disgust, sadness, fear, anger, unbearable excitement, bewilderment, and ecstasy all in one 30 minute episode.

    For a great drinking game…take a swig everytime Paula uses the word “bacon” (“bakin'” counts) in a show.

    Finally, that picture of Liane is bonafide badass.

  3. for all of you following the unreliable babysitter chronicles, she’s been FIRED! she doesn’t agree that she is a horrible person by the way.

  4. fun with presses

    85/95/100/105×1/100

    1RM pr on the 105, but no 3RM pr was in the cards for me today. Still really sore from Barbara.

    Tried DB press with 30 lbs, but was scolded for arching my back, so I went to 25 lbs. 2×5

    Then some ring rows. 3×12

  5. Nicole. Thank god you god rid of her! Will Audrey be backsquatting with us?

    Dude. Paula Dean’s food is so. SO. so. good lord, she’s a hell of a woman.

  6. Snatch161.5x2x5

    Press180.5x3x5

    Squat340x3x5

    Snatches felt a little out of sorts although I did have one of those magic pulls where the weight jumps up higher and faster than you expect it to.

    Press was easier than I was dreading.

    Squat just sucked, I haven’t had that much weight on my back in a while, felt good to get it done though.

  7. Damn… tonight was the mother of all “off” nights. I failed on my 2nd warm-up set at 50lb and it was all downhill from there. Ended up working the 40lb bar for almost all of my work sets. Thank you Margie and Dan for helping me troubleshoot!

    Stoked, 140 used to be my 1rm! Am really looking forward to setting a new 1rm PR on the press. Body weight one day soon…

    *Last rep was sloppy.

    dmcg: the shoes help, but face it: you’re just strong. Nice work today!

    bethany: check your inbox tomorrow, I’ll have a surprised for you in the early afternoon.

  11. Tuesday morning, Jenna flaked on our pact, but still a solid crew.

    AMRAP 20 min20 lunges15 pushups10 db squat cleans (35 lbs)

    6 rounds + 20 lunges. Was going to do 30 lbs but David told me to do 35. damn him.

  12. I haven’t been up that early in ever.

    AMRAP 20 min20 lunges15 burpees10 db squat cleans (30 lbs)

    4 rounds even. I thought it would be a good idea to get some of my burpees in since I am so far behind. My quads are on fire.

  13. Press 3-3-3-3-3

    60, 65, 70, 72pr, 75prExtra set at 77(x2)

    DB Press – 2×5 – 25#DB Rows – 3×12 – 15#

    Steph – great working with you!

    David McG – Congrats! I need to get some of those magic shoes.

  14. press

    wu:45×5

    60,65,70,72,75*PR (77×2)

    anne, was SO great lifting with you! you rocked!

    did 78 burpees, still 99 in the hole. today (tuesday) is day 69. sigh.

  15. If I recall correctly…115×3, 125×2, 125×3, 130×2, 130x2then I tried a single rep at 135 and failedAll in all, I wasn’t unsatisfied. My press numbers have really been falling and this is the first time in a while I felt I could have hit 135, even if I didn’t.40lb db x 5, 45lb db x5, 50lb db x5

    also did a warm up Annie. I think 8:35my abs were still seriously sore from Barbara, that slowed me down a lot.also, I started with 46 continuous double-unders, then it took me 4 attempts to knock out the final 4, messed up. That kept happening, finding a groove, then really losing it. I need to order by buddy lee replacement rope.

  16. Press x3: 85,95,100,105,110. Last press was way sloppy, but I’ll let it stand. Great working with Sameer. Dumbell presses 35lbs 5 reps x2. All felt good until the 2nd round of ring rows,something pulled in my left shoulder, hope it’s not too bad, living on Advil for now. David said to lay off the burpee challenge, I’m only too happy to oblige. Julianna; my wife told me last night that I’m like the guy from “Night of the living Dead”- wonder what she meant:)

  17. Nicole, the fact that your babysitter doesn’t agree with you, only add to how horrible she is. Good choice in getting rid of her!

  19. Press x 3: 42, 42, 43, 43.5, 44.Thanks to Sarah and Becky for pushing me. My left arm is definitely weaker than my right. Those free weight lifts are good for me.
