HQ workout for yesterday. Let's see how much weight we can lift.
Thrusters:
1-1-1-1-1-1-1 reps
Results:
Justin: 175, 185, 195, 205(f), 205, 195, 185(f)
Seth: 175, 195, 205, 215, 225(f), 225(f), 220(f)
Be sure to perform plenty of warm up sets to gauge what weight you should use for the official repetitions.

CRAP! i started with 2x65# DBs (after warmup, stretch, blahblah). felt ok. put the weights back to change em...took a step...and it appears my left hamstring is once again broken. it's not pulled...but it's uncomfortable enough to know it's not 100% and i don't want to make it worse. so i'm going to pretend i'm justin and not do the workout today.
i may find some upper body workout to do later. maybe one of the old school p90x deals.

I finally got to the gym today. Glad to be back in the saddle. Now I get to start trying to regain lost ground.
I was pleased to get more than my bodyweight overhead. Should have had 225#, but just wasn't my day.
Still, 215 is BW + 20#, so not too shabby.
On failure:
"It is not the critic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat." Teddy Roosevelt
