Thursday
Band Presses (2 yellow + 1 mag.) 5 reps x 4 sets
Friday
Even though I did some heavy (for a non-laborer) manual labor and it was tiring, it felt as though I hadn't been training. I don't know how to describe it but if I don't train I have way too much energy. In short I need to train for my sanity (or maybe those around me;) so did a hard one today. Feel a lot better. Tomorrow I am doing the Komen race with my mum.

Nice work with the thrusters man! Those are a killer for me with 2 24's..I can't imagine 2 32 kg. bells yet..man I still have a long way to go! You rock!
I know what you mean about the need to train, for me its the same way, just makes everything else so much more tolerable.
Thanks Tom. It was pretty damn hard. Thrusters are a favorite exercise of mine! What sort of #'s were you getting with the 24's? Might have to give it a go this week.
Ken,
Usually when I do thrusters it is in combo with pull-ups a-la "Fran" of CrossFit fame (I know, I know)-I just really like that particular workout..short, sweet and brutal! It's 21, 15, and 9 reps of thrusters (I use 2 X 24 kg.) and BW pull-ups. I usually break the sets a little but try and keep moving. My best time thus far is about 9 minutes.
Sounds good Tom. I haven't done it before but I will have to some time.
Man, you guys are strong! :) I got my work cut out for me I love the competition, keep up the great work!
