October 7, 2006 - APFT

October 7 2006

Army PT test

69 pushups in 2 minutes
64 situps in 2 minutes
12:32 - 2 mile run

weight - 191
hieght - 69"

Notes:
-Pushups not the best I've ever done but the best in since I've been married that is for sure, also this is without pushup woirk, only with a combination of Xfit and lifting.
-Situps - Felt good, able to keep a pretty steady pace
-NOT 2 miles, Probably .3-.5 miles short of a full 2 miles, everyone in the Company should have been made aware of that after the test so that they know.

October 3 2006

October 3 2006
Run - 4000 feet - 6:03 total 1.5 miles = 17:02
Cindy as many rounds in 20 minutes
5 pullups
10 pushups
15 squats
7 rounds in 9:13

row @ 5 - 500m 1:52, 749m 2:52

Notes: This WORKOUT SUCKED IN A BIG WAY. First workout since 9/27 and I thought I'd be super refreshed and ready to hit it hard, my run was just awful about halfway through my right arch started to hurt so I had to stop and walked the rest. I was pretty unhappy with that. So I decided to do Cindy and that SUCKED I don't know if it was because I was at myself because of the run but my Cindy wasn't even completed. I then tried to row 2000m and barely get 750m, the first 500m was good but then I just couldn't keep up the pace anymore! BLAH!!#!@#@!$!@#@!#!@
