2009 12 14 Makeup: Tery's 1st workout back

last week, Coach met with me to check progress
. we talked about strength vs metcon. during the session, i got frustrated because i saw how my approach/attitude didn't align with his coaching ... and my less than consistent results lately. so i called it out:

Tery: "i need to check my ego, don't i?"
Coach: smile. sigh. nod.

Tery: "i need to stop doing what the others do and do what you say, don't i?"
Coach: smile. sigh. nod.

Tery: "i need to stop over-thinking and get back to the bar, don't i?"
Coach: smile. sigh. nod.

with all that said, maybe getting sick, missing the oly meet, a race, and 4 WODs was the karmic bitchslap i needed. i will eat my slice of humble pie with gratitude tonight when i drag myself in.


Strict Press 57x3, 65x3, 73x8
felt good. slow, but steady.

Ring Dips 5-6-6
quality over quantity. again, slow, but steady.

Metcon 8# WB, 20" box (i think?)
7:28, 3 round modification
slow, but steady.

clearly, a pattern has emerged. looking forward to feeling better and adding the words "fast" and "furious" to the mix. Sometimes you have to take a step back before you can take 2 forward
