Post regionals training
It has been two weeks since the Canada East Regionals. The first week after the regionals I was feeling great and only took the Monday off to rest then went five days straight of training.
After the 5 days straight I found myself sore and not having any kind of drive to workout. I have slowly crawled out of this dark hole and feel the need to pick up the pace at the gym.
Tomorrow I will be heading to Poland to visit with family and watch the euro cup. I will be bring some rings along with me and I hope to get a few WODs in while I'm not partying.
Stay tuned for updates from Europe.

3x400m sprint, 150 KB Swings
Over the winter I have been doing some sprint drills at the near by college where they have an indoor 200m track.
After doing today's WOD it proves that my training is working. I was faster then I have ever been on my split times.
With a running clock and completing a 400m sprint every 3 min for 3 sets
400m-400m-400m
1:01(PR)-1:07-1:10
Rest 5 min
150 KB swings
Every time the motion of the KB stops don3 burpees.
Time-9:21
I must say that this workout was very tough so if you are going to do it make sure you give all you got on the sprints. Gang on for dear life with the kb swings.

2km Row ....box jumps dumbell cleans
Its the monday before a competition but it's also a Monday 4 weeks out from the 2012 Reebok CrossFit Regionals. I have contemplated just working this weekends tag team competition into my programming or tapering to have greater results at this weekends comp.
I have made the decision to carry on with the program I have set out for regionals.
Today's WOD was not part of my 4 week program to prepare for regionals. I offten fin myself getting home from work at all different times and never know when or where my training might take me. Today I found myself to late to make it to my home box Crossfit Oshawa so I made an appearance at a globo gym.
At the gym they have a ton of rowers so I decided to pull out a 2000m row followed by a little WOD.
2km Row
Time-7:39
Then
6-12-24
Dumbell cleans 50lb each hand
24" box jumps
Time-6:14
Because of the globo gym setting I didn't feel I was able to perform very well and just kind of walked three the workout.
Tomorrow is a new day and I hope to get some squats in then a metcon.

Injured
It was a big weekend, overdose dominate taking place at Element CrossFit on sat Jan 28th. There were 3 WODs to determine who would be the top 10 to move on to the final WOD. After the first three I was sitting in 9th. I crawled up one spot after the last WOD, finishing in 8th place.
I went into this competition with a bummed shoulder and left it with a disabled shoulder. I have torn a muscle in my left shoulder and will not be able to compete in the Reebok Fire Breather competition this weekend. I'm taking the time off to heal for the open and the regionals.
