Haven't hit the gym just yet but I'm down to my ideal body weight of 175. I'm 5'10".
I was 206 last April 2018...body by "Bud" you could say.

Been traveling, walking, eating healthy, kayaking, cycling, wrenching on my cars, honey do projects etc.
That's how I lost close to 30 pounds
Just when Im getting the time to hit the weights, I had a slight setback
Had a weird looking cyst type growth removed from my chest a few days ago..waiting for pathology results.

Sorry for the rant, go Monique, and MyDivorceGift...best name ever!
Thanks for the well wishes!

For those that follow OCR Hunter McIntyre was at Mayhem yesterday. He is one of my favorite athletes. He is a really cool and down to earth guy.

Monique has done all of them but we have not submitted her scores yet. She is re-doing 2 today to try and improve. Probably won't get the results until Thursday. All in all it went good.....she won't qualify for the games this year. But anything over her 106th spot in the open would be improvement. I personally think she will wind up in the top 50 or so.

If anyone would like to watch:

Snatch, handstand pushup workout

https://youtu.be/N2CBxu1oD7g

Deadlift, overhead squat, double under workout

https://youtu.be/iuFnEDPAIwE

Thruster, toe to bar, clean, chest to bar workout

https://youtu.be/r03w4BP9SPE

Muscle up, shoulder to overhead workout

https://youtu.be/Qe_a-cJi1T4

I guess I didn't hit the start button on workout which was a 80 bar facing burpee then a 4000m row workout. She did it in 22:00. That one and the muscle up/STO workout she is not redoing.

Last week we had to submit Monique's videos to CF HQ for review so final standings were just posted today.

She finished 28th overall so she did not qualify for the Games as only the top 10 do. She has already said she will do what it takes to win it next year.

Been meaning to post just don’t come here often anymore. Thanks for asking!

It’s going I would say ok-good. 20.1 was great, 20.2 was not good, 20.3 was ok. Right now she is 31st overall.

Yeah? I'm getting after it in about an hour. One of the women at my gym got one rep at 205.

Nice. Monique still working on those OL’s.

She made it through 145 but 175 is too much. Would be a 12lb pr. She got under it, and wouldn’t have any trouble squatting it up, but she can’t get her elbows through at the bottom of the sq clean 😑

She will go again tomorrow.

looking for a report back!

I got through eight reps at 225--no misses. Had I not been too proud to ask for help changing weights, and had the people I just helped gotten off their asses, I probably would have gotten a crack or two at 275. I've power cleaned it and jerked it a few times, separately, so it wouldn't have been a PR of the respective movements, but it would have been a PC&J PR. I'll retest in a year.

Nice. Yeah you know you were allowed to have people change the weight right?

175 was still a no go but she managed to knock 1:20 off her tie break time which was huge. There is an enormous amount of women with 200 reps.

As of this morning she’s 35th overall for The Open.

Yeah...I know.

I'm looking forward to the BtWB breakdown of the stats for this one. I want to see how profound the bottlenecks are.
