thrusters 65#

I wanted to finish this under 8 minutes and I did… barely. 65# thrusters (60% body weight) are really fucking heavy. The heaviest thrusters I’ve ever done were 25# dumbbells so this was a shock to the system. Twice I tried to clean the bar up to my chest and missed. Getting the bar up is like a whole extra challenge that’s not listed in the workout, because there are extra cleans in there that no one told you about. My pull-ups didn’t feel very good either. Usually I can do 20 in a row no problem, but since I totally wore myself out doing thrusters I had to break up every set at least twice.

An update:

One more week until my ultra-expensive ridiculous exam. It’s causing me so much stress that I’m crying for no reason, I have headaches day and night, my back pain is so bad that it hurts to breathe, and I wake up at 3am every morning and can’t fall back asleep. It’s not awesome at all. One would think I would be used to it by now… not so much.

Got a massage, had some cupping and acupuncture done, but I’m still in pain. Been working out but feeling pretty disgusting and slow despite my new running shoes. Pretty much ready to give up on dating altogether as it’s been bordering on disaster. Still struggling with finding a job, and the application and interview process is not going smoothly AT ALL. Somehow I thought it would be simple to get a job working to serve the underserved. Now I know why they’re underserved. Because they won’t hire people to serve them.

Haven’t blogged here or for LAist in quite a while. Haven’t checked Flickr in over a month. Totally behind with all of my friends. Feeling generally crappy. Please may this be better in a week. I’m begging the blogging gods to help me out here. Wah.

Anyway, here are some boobs to tide you all over till my life straightens itself out.

I don’t know why I attempted to do anything after that workout yesterday as I am in pain all over and my legs are like bricks.
