"Karen" - Bench press

For time: 150 Wallball shots, 20 pound ball

Time - 5:14 (PR of 1:58)

Last time in May of 2010 was 7:22 so this was a very big PR for me.  Last time I did 50-40-31-29 and this time I only took one 10-15 second break and it was after 90.  After that I thought I would go for 30 but still had a little gas and went to 40 and there I though "I can hold on for another 20, 19-18-17-16..."  So I did 90-60.  Very happy with this legs feel like tree trunks and I puked when I was done.  But I am very happy.  I think puked because my stomach is not right, not the WOD. 

After that I did a bench press WOD from January of 2010:

1-10-1-20-1-30

245-1
185-10
225-1
175-15,5
225-1
155-16-14

Total=1210

Today I added 10lbs to each set - 255x1, 195x10, 235x1, 185x15+5, 235x1, 165x17+9+3.  Happy with this also the first three sets were very easy especially the 235.  The set of 20 and set of 30 were more difficult.  I wish I could have kept from breaking up the 9 and 4 and done 13 unbroken but other than that very happy.  By bench press is improving.
