Warm-up: 5 min rowing - 2.30 / 500m. Light cleans to rx weight.

3 rounds:
10 PU
10 Squat jumps

WOD:

Pre-fuel: 30g whey
Post-fuel: 40g p/ 30g c. 60 mins later PFC meal.

Which warm-up routine would you recommend for this WOD?

Brent Maier said...

Gord, you forgot pinky pullups in your warm up. Good thing hobbits live to be 300+ because that was a hell of a warmup. :)

My new roller will arrive tomorrow!

Scotty Hagnas said...

Warmup: some foam rolling/SMR, full body joint mobility, and dynamic flexibility. Then, some parkour vaulting to ramp up the CNS, followed by a specific warmup for the clean.

WOD: 8:41'

Pre workout 5:40am: light meal-ham (no nitrates), 3 plums, 4 T avocado. 20c/17p/10f Also, fish oil, multi-vit

PWO 9am: Ham, shredded carrot and blueberry salad 35p/40c Also, 2g taurine, vit C, 300mg magnesium

Hixy said...

Scotty, I noticed you consume vit C and magnesium post workout. Is this because the antioxidants are supposed to help repair the muscles? Anyway, I found an article at tmuscle.com - thereby not saying it's correct - that suggests that "antioxidants taken after exercise may increase muscle damage and delay recovery". Here's the link: http://www.tmuscle.com/free_online_article/sports_body_training_performance_nutrition/the_top_10_post_workout_nutrition_myths

I'd like to hear what you think about it :)

Optimum Performance Training said...

Turns out I used the wrong weight, my box was too low and I didn't do push-ups on the burpees but other than that it was as rx'ed.

Pre-workout I ate a some Wendy's and had Aucoin kick me in the junk for a warm-up.

I love Nickleback.

7:13

Warmup was CFWU x1 with a 300 m row. Then 10 thrusters, 10 OHS, 10 jerks and push presses with the bar. Then did a bunch of mini rounds with box jumps, burpees, and squat cleans.

The wod today was a smoker for me, garage was 88 degrees and extremely humid, first time in a while that I was gasping for breath. Good test though.

Post PNF stretching, shoulder dislocates. Meal was 1 jarrow whey shake and 1.5oz sausage with 1 cup no sugar added applesauce. 30p, 30c.

Scotty Hagnas said...

Hixy,

The main reason I use the Mg and taurine is to reduce the excitability of the nervous system following a workout with a CNS component. I'll usually add them PWO for O-lifting, or ring strength work.

The jury still seems to be out on the antioxidants and training issue. I didn't have access to the full study he quoted, but I see that it was from the Biochemistry of Aging Laboratory, Center for Exercice Science, College of Human Performance, University of Florida. I'm going to guess that the subjects were likely untrained elderly folk, and it's very dicey to extrapolate the findings from that population to healthy athletes.

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10919971?ordinalpos=1&itool=EntrezSystem2.PEntrez.Pubmed.Pubmed_ResultsPanel.Pubmed_DiscoveryPanel.Pubmed_Discovery_RA&linkpos=5&log$=relatedreviews&logdbfrom=pubmed

This study (on endurance athletes) shows a protective benefit.

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8776010?ordinalpos=1&itool=EntrezSystem2.PEntrez.Pubmed.Pubmed_ResultsPanel.Pubmed_DiscoveryPanel.Pubmed_Discovery_RA&linkpos=3&log$=relatedreviews&logdbfrom=pubmed

This one mentions the difference between trained and untrained subjects relating to this.

It also looks like any antioxidant, in high dose, can become pro-oxidant - whether or not exercise training is involved.

Chad- How long have you been taking the Umbiquinol? Did you notice improved recovery? I just began taking that 2 weeks ago, and my recovery and energy levels have been amazing...it's the only thing I have changed.

While I'm at it, just did as 2nd workout:
A) ring strength sequence x 2: (muscle up to 10" half press to 2" back lever to 2" front lever)twice thru, no rest
B) stall bar support 3 sets of 5 sec. (a brutal pec minor active stretch)
Recovery work

Chad Action Brandt said...

Hey Scotty, it's been about 4 months now and I have noticed a big improvement in recovery and DOMS. I have been taking it every other day and after big smasher WODs.

Do you take your Mag mostly during the day or do you take it before bed along with some zinc?

Jefff said...

hardest workout in a long while
lots of legs

Grant said...

I have to pass on this one. My sore throat has come back in a big way. Going to have to take a few days off. Good job Mike, Todd, Gord etc

Brent Maier said...

Time: 7:16

Warmup:
15 minutes stretching
5 minutes on roller
10 back extensions
10 glute ham raises
20 ghd situps
10 minutes of double unders (Sets of 20 seperated by 20 breaths for 10 minutes)
Burgener Warmup
Upper body mobility stretches

2 sets of the WOD with only 3 reps per station.

WOD Notes: First round was blazing fast. I had plans of touch and go squat cleans but that turned into a "drop it from the top approach" after the first 12 burpees. I am pleased with this performance today. Back in October '08, I would have been in the 10-12 minute range. Full squats used to destroy me in metcons.

Post: 1 Scoop Recoverite, 1.5 scoops protein.
Post Meal: Grilling some alaskan Salmon a friend brought down for me as the main dish. Mmm

I'm learning a lot from reading everyones warmup routines and how they are supplementing. Thanks!

Pfeifalife said...

Warmup involved some moderate rowing and light stretching. Worked on pose running for about 10 minutes.

This wod destroyed me. Probably needed more warm up. Burpees and cleans really slowed me down. Was a little aprehensive with my back still hurting from Monday, but just humbled from looking at all the times posted. Got a ways to go.

9:29
post: had 1 scoop protien with fruit. Rolled out legs and hips.

Very pleased as I've been having Migraine issues again so have been taking it REAL easy and getting REAL frustrated. Was a little afraid to start the workout but thought I'd give 'er a go.
Warm-up was iffy but once I got into it things were all good...not even a sniff of a potential oncoming migraine. WHOOOOOO! :)

bLing said...

recoverite and refuel? what is the brand name and where do i get it?

has anyone tried brendan brazier's vega sport optimizer? you drink it before a workout, i thought it gave me a ton of energy, but i've only tried it twice...

mando

Jefff said...

bLing -

I get Refuel at OPT in Calgary. I'm not 100% sure, but I think thats the only place you can buy it. He can tell you more about it than I can.

Scotty Hagnas said...

Hi Chad-

I take the mag post workout (not always, though) and in the evening. Sometimes, I'll use topical magnesium pm. Zinc, methylated B-vitamins at night also.

How much of the Umbiquinol are you taking?

First water soluable hemp protein concentrate made without the use of Hexane [used often with soy and protein isolates]
Made in Canada, eh!
