Big Day
Well this was my last day unemployed. I got the call at 1 asking if I’d take the job at Starbucks I interviewed for last week and I took it. Besides it being an awesome company, and my overriding love of coffee it brings a paycheck back into my life something that I need. To celebrate I picked up my diploma since I graduated in December and spent 3 hours at the box between strength training, hanging out, and doing today’s WOD.
Today by the numbers:
Jugg Bench:
5x130
5x145
3 sets of 10x160
Wendler 3’s Deadlift
3x260
3x305
3x340
Then enjoy a break, work on a homemade axel for lifting, do a few continentals with 100# or so and wait for the 4pm class to do the WOD
WOD
Heavy KB Swings and Burpee Box Jumps
15-12-9
2 Min break
12-9-6
1 Min break
9-6-3
70lb KB and 20” box - rough one to do, finished in 24:30
Followed the workout up with a large steak, running to the new job for orientation and hanging out with some friends. Overall not a bad way to spend a Monday. I also purchased a new shirt for work, down yet another size, and even put on a Medium polo and it actually fit me. Tried on some pants, they were 34/32s which is another size down as well. So I’ve gone from a 46/32 in July to a 34/32 in January, and from a 3/4XL to a M/L shirt. This is just insane, and I love every minute of it. Now to find a lady that appreciates my new streamlined look and make some plans on how I’m going to drink all the coffee that Starbucks let’s its partners have.
