  1. somebody please explain to me the 30x0 and 1010 all that stuff. meant to ask someone but its been awhile since we had a wod with those.

    ReplyDelete
  2. Hi Rob, I am new here, but on my first day (July 14) Hixy explained those notations. I believe 30X0 would mean:
    3 secs eccentric (down)
    0 secs in the down position
    X explosive concentric (up)
    0 secs in the top position

    Is high bar BS, with a2a (or, just past parallel) the standard recommendation here, or is there a preferred style? Not meaning to open a can of worms with that one...

    ReplyDelete
  3. I'm sure Rory will show u... hixy gave a gd explination a few days ago...

    e.b.c.t. -- 30X0

    eccentric - 3 sec lengthining muscle (mostly holds true 4 major muscle group involved in movement)... 4 the squat this is the down movement, lenghthening the quads)...
    bottom -- 0 (no pause b4 going 2 c...)
    concentric -- X = Xplosive intent... this shortens the muscles of the major group involved... 4 the squat this is the up movement where the quads shorten... CONcentric = CONtract...
    top -- 0 no pause at the top b4 beginning the cycle again at e... end of the rep...

    hope this helps brother...

  4. thanks Unit i think i got it i am going to head in early so i can blame the army for missing this one. then after this i get to look forward to a 70lbs rucksack patrol for an hour or 2 yay me. i love the army and their narrow focused training ideology. Rory will still be MIA for a few more days i need my partner back it brings out the intensity much more training with a partner.

  5. Thought I would share this with my fellow dawgs....
    I spoke with Jim Storch last night, Director of NYS Empire State Games and he is coaching this monster right now...check this out...he is 17 years old, 180lb (approximate). I watched him compete in the 2008 Empire Games, and he is going to be something to watch.

  6. Back Squat 185,195,205,215,235 x6
    Weighted chins 50, 55x4

    Everything else unbroken

    I was real pleased with the back squat,especially at this tempo. 255 x 5 is my pr, and that is with 5 min breaks and totally fresh.
    Jumping air squats, took the wind out of me. Pullups not bad.

    1 1/4 cup applesauce, 2 scoops jarrow whey protein.

    Chad "Action"- used your warmup today, really liked it, whole body felt ready to roll, keep those videos coming....this is to all the Big Dawgs- what does your "cool down" consist off?

    Jumping air squats: Got some mad air!
    Chins: 20, 20, 15, 15
    C2B - still workin on it, maybe got the bar twice in total

  9. Mack put me up to this one. Yesterday's WOD - 8:23

  10. Squat: 315x5 325x5 325x5 325x4 345x4

    DB Lunges: 50, 70, 140, 70, 70

    Chins: 50, 70, 88, 97, 97x2

    ReplyDelete
  11. Squat: worked up to 214
    Lunge: up to 31.25/hand
    Pull-up: up to 35

    Good grief, that was really f#$kin' hard. My 1st set felt awful so I only made small jumps in hopes that I'd reach a max in the squats (aka top out at 4 reps) but I kept getting 6 reps with good form (low bar squats today to be safe). Lunges were bru-tal and the jump squats were pure pain. I was starting to feel pukey by the 4 set of pull-ups, which is pretty rare.

    This is pretty much what the doctor (naturopath) ordered today, great workout when it's over.

    Going with Refuel for post-WOD today for quick calorie uptake and then I'll do some fats in 30 minutes.

  12. Squat 115(6REPS), 125(6 REPS), 130(4REPS), 135((4REPS), 140(4REPS)

    Lunges--just did 12 each time, didn't realize were adding weight..oops

    Jumping air squats...first time, found challenging and toasted legs.

    Weighted chins...15, 20, 25, 30(20reps), 30(2reps).

    Chest to bar chins..can't do these yet but did 6 kips

    Kipping....straight through 9 reps per set

  13. Back Squat 155/6 165/6 170/6 175/5 175/4

    Jump Squats: last to sets were broken ...legs were failing to keep up with me!

    Strict PU: #15/3 straight through

    I love this programming!

    Squats 198,209,220,231,242(6 reps)
    Lunges 25, 30, 30, 35, 35

    Weighted Chins 40, 40, 40, 40, 40
    Chest to bar Unbroken
    Kipping Unbroken

    Sterling and I kept a pretty good pace throughout this WOD. I’m glad he was there or I would have effed this up big time. I give a lot of credit to those that can grind through a WOD like this alone!

    I’m re-fueling right know on some homemade buffalo/turkey burgers, sweet potato, quinoa, 2 “fruit to go’s” and some berries.

    Those rowing times are FREAKISH!

  15. Damn, that was brutal. (The 110 degree heat might have had something to do with it, too.)

    BS: 205x5x4x4x4x4 Thought I'd have to reduce as I went along, but I always was able to grind out the 4th rep.
    Lunge: 35lb per hand all sets.
    Jump squats: ouch
    Wtd chins: 53x3x3; 45x3; 36x3; 30x3
    CtoB: Broken after the second round
    Kipping pulups: had to break these in later rounds, too. Lats felt fatigued from yesterday's pull to inverts.

    A few quick QDR static holds, then relaxed stretching cooldown today.

    PWO: 45p/65c Whey, Recoverite, pomegranate juice, BCAA before and after workout.

    Ready for the off day!

  16. Back squat: 225,245,245,255,265 for 6 on all

    DB Lunges: 40,50,55,55,55

    Pullups: 40,40,50,50,55

    The hardest part today was getting the weight up on my feet when doing pullups.

    ReplyDelete
  17. More fatiguing then I initially anticipated, although the 120 sec rest was much welcome throughout.

    DL: worked up to 205lbs
    DB lunges: up to 35lbs (could have done a bit more but figured wanted to focus on explosion on jump squats)
    Jump Squats: 15 unbroken all through
    Weighted Chins: up to 30lbs
    Chest to bar: unbroken up to last two sets
    Kip Chins: Unbroken to last two sets

    Thanks Gord for the push today. Now looking forward to a rest day and the next cycle!

  19. High Bar Back Squat: 225X6X6X6X4X4

    DB walking lunges: I, like Ali, missed the DB portion of this workout when I wrote it down this morning so did walking lunges with no weight....damn!

    weighted chin ups: 50,50,50,50,50

    This workout was 34min 15sec of hell. All I can say is thanks, James, for the 120 sec rest periods.

  24. Forgot to mention the 5 minutes of dikfers I added to my warm-up. Think they may have hindered my squatting. As my bum was quite sore afterwards.
    Alvaro was also here to give me some Oly lifting tips. And, to help me with my intensity - don't fear the iron.

  29. Here is a little vid of our wod today.

    http://vimeo.com/5829807

    This shit is so mentally hard to complete. You are pushed to the edge of cliff every workout, for me anyway. Today was very tough. I think it is the mandated rest times that get me the most and the heat wave hitting Western BC. Anyway survived another one.

    198# x 6

    220# x 6

    231# x 6

    235# x 6

    Airsquats


    Broken only on round 2 10/5

    DB Lunges


    25#

    30#

  32. Squats: 95/105/110/112.5/115
    W. Lunges: 15/17.5/20/22.5/27.5
    J. Squats--straight through
    Weighted Chins: 10/12.5/15/20/22.5
    Other chins completed--some kipping issues within sets, but never off the bar.

    Probably could have been a bit heavier on the chins.

    Tried to make up yesterday's workout at night, but neck stinger/pain flared up again after set 1, so stopped. Finished with inversions--not bad, neck pain only when upside down! Thanks Grant for the tips. Welcome back captain Rob!

    WCU 25/30/40/40/40 needed the weight belt
    CTB Tucker style
    KCU butterfly

    hard to be proficient @ both types of chin-ups. Undecided to keep develeoping both or just be good @ butterfly. Nice to have both in the toolbox.

    lunges 2/2/2/1.5/1.5
    WCU 24lbs straight weight vest


    One of the hardest workout I have done. Legs started feeling shakey after squats on round 3.

    ReplyDelete
  40. Forgot the Lunges i used kettlebell so the weight was in pood.

    ReplyDelete
  41. Warmup: Did stuff mimicing Action Brandt's warmup he posted and felt good and primed for this wod. Everthing but my quads and pulling muscles were sore before this wod

    A1: 315,315,295,295,295(5)
    A2: used 2 pood kettlebell held on back for this this
    A3: unbroken, absolutely fried my legs
    A4: 78,78,63,63,58
    A5: unbroken
    A6: unbroken

    This wod was brutal, but awesome at the same time. Can't really think of too many like this that both gut and head checked like this one. Absolutely loved it, all the while loathing it in sync.

    Not used to doing HBBS, so took some focus on staying on heels to keep back more upright and off toes (this messed with the cadence at the top of my reps on about the last 3 rds). Lunges were lunges, and air squats sucked the life out of my legs. started to look like low bar jumping air squats near the end, had to refocus on upright torso as back was going. The pullups were pullups. Tried to focus more on pulling with my back as my arms were fairly tired from the weighted chinups.

    Post wod: 45g isopure protein, 1 apple

    rolled out and stretched after hot shower. I will probably just be one giant knot tomorrow. This last triple was brutal. Keep it up Coach. I am more focused on my diet, sleep, recovery more than ever firstly just to try and survive each week on this site. Thank you for this...

  42. Gord its great to be posting again.
    Rory and I took some time off after we did the Game WODs. Anyway messed this up and found out correct way to do this after the fact. i did it like squats then 10sec straight through 5 sets the on down the line.

    245x6
    20kg KB each hand lunges
    great explosion on jumping lunge
    45lb weighted
    CtB first 3 good rest got tired we smoked our arms yesterday during Army PT.
    kipping unbroken.

    much needed rest day tomorrow even though its not much of a rest since we are working on patroling. but i wont be doubling up. Friday Rory and I are going to do some indoor climbing should be fun.

    ReplyDelete
  43. HB back squats(6 reps each rnd) - 125/135/140/145/150. Tempo and high bar freaked me out at first, and my execution of it was by no means perfect, but I really liked it in the end.

    DB walking lunges - 20/25/30/35/35

    Jump squat - all straight thru

    strict CUs - 15/20/25x2/20 could only go up by increments of 5# at CFC.

    C2B - last couple sets were not the fastest, but I stayed on the bar the whole time.

    Kipping - first 3 rnds straight thru, then 7/2, and 5/2/2

    switched grip to open when I learned the butterfly, now I need to try and close it again, but I just can't seem to do it. Grip failure on chin ups seems to be happening more often now and it's really starting to get to me!

    Sorry about making you laugh Chantal...wish I could promise that it won't happen again!

    Welcome back Cap'n Rob!!! Tell your sweet girls that it was their cheering that made all the difference!!!

    No Big Dawgs for me for a week. Off to the cabin...

  44. Squats: 225, 235, 255, 275, 285 (5 reps)

    Everything else unbroken.
