Iron Martini: Karen T'Day countdown

Karen T'Day countdown

I did a deadlift of 135# today. My T-day goal was 100. So y-a-y.
I also did 4.75 pull-ups. So close.

I climbed last night, and did one pull-up after climbing.

Today I worked with a personal trainer.

Glossary

AFAP: As Fast As Possible
BA: Bad Ass
BAP: Band Assisted Pull Ups

Glassups (formerly Shoulder-O's) - a KB armbar, TGU up, windmill, OH squat, and TGU down
GTG: Grease the Groove. Working an exercise or movement for practice and maintenance rather than heavy work.
Hack squat, hack lift, behind the back deadlift - a deadlift with the bar behind you
Heaving snatch balance: Start with the bar on the back of your shoulders and hold it in a snatch grip. Dip and drive the bar up, then drop into a full squat, catching the bar overhead. Stand up with the bar overhead. Lower the bar behind your head and repeat. See video - http://media.crossfit.com/cf-video/CrossFit_SnatchBalance.wmv
Inverted Burpees
Iron rope - stand on a bench, bar vertical in front of you with weights loaded on the bottom. Go hand over hand (with hands close to each other) and walk the bar up, then down - that's one.
KTE: Knees to elbows. Hang from pull up bar and try to touch your knees to your elbows. Good luck.
Pin Press - partial movement (OHP or BP) where the weight is started from the pins in the power rack.
