G - phase 3



this guy is so big we needed 3 photos for his gym
WOD:
for total score:
30 sec max squats
30 sec rest
AMRAP Ring Dips
60 sec rest x 3
total reps of squats and ring dips for 3 sets X BWT in kg = score 1
5 min rest
10 GHD Raises
10 sec rest
AMRAP hanging knees to elbows
90 sec rest x 5
total K2E reps for 5 sets X BWT in kg = score 2
5 min rest
as many rounds in 7 minutes;
7 jumping chin ups
7 push up burpees
rounds completed X BWT in kg = score 3
add scores 1,2 and 3 together to get total score, winner has highest number
post total score (compare to Jan 19, 2009) and post wod fuelling to comments
Rules:
squats: measure 1/2 distance b/t floor and middle of knee cap WITH shoes on, that is the height you have to squat to, touch ass to object at this height each rep, full extension of hips at top
ring dips: biceps MUST touch rings at bottom, elbows MUST be locked out at top, pushing outward on rings at top DOES NOT constitute a rep, you MUST start each rep from the top at full arm extension
GHD Raises: come to perpendicular to floor at top, hands crossed at chest, if you fraction these reps, you lose 3 reps from your K2E's score on that round
K2E's: you must hang for the start and finish of each rep, you CANNOT touch down to stop mometum, then hang and start another rep, a rep is knees ACTUALLY touching the elbows, NOT the triceps, please be clear on this, kipping allowed
jumping chin ups: extend both hands overhead WITH shoulders fully extended upward like in OHS, not depressed downward and then measure bar which must cross at 8" below highest point on hand, arms fully extended at the bottom of each rep, full face must clear the bar at top
push up burpees: chest to deck, jump and clap overhead at top, body must be perpendicular to floor at top of jump, no leaning forward at top

can someone please explain what a GHD raise is? is it just a simple back/hip extension?

I love these pix of everyone's training sites. Awesome.

James. In October I'm participating in an "ultimate" 12k cross country race. I ran it last year and finished in just under 90 minutes--twice as long as the first place finisher. I really want to improve on my time in this year's event. I'm totally sold on this programming, but is there anything I need to supplement into my warm ups or practice in addition to our WODs?

Here's the link if anyone is interested in looking at last year's pix. It was pretty fun and at that point, the hardest thing I've ever done physically.

First real day committing to this program, and first day of Chiropractor school. Got 9 hours of classes w/ only a one hour break had to do at 6:00 am. What do the early morning people eat Pre-WOD or do they go on an empty stomach.

SteveC said...

Question:
I will be working with a coach for olympic lifts for the next couple of months. It will be 3 times a week. On those days, should I double up the workouts with the ones from this blog or will that be overtraining? I was thinking maybe I will only do WODs without any o-lifts on those days. Any recommendations?

*Upon further review of ring dips, biceps not getting all the way down. Close, but not deep enough.

Question: How much running will be included in the WODs this winter? I'm thinking of buying some of the clothes from this site (OPT hoodie), so it would be good to know.

How does people cope with running outside in the wintertime or while it's raining?

last time I did 97 squats, 54 dips, 63 KTE and 8.5 rds. so improvement all across the board.

WES I often have to do 5am workouts. I have played around quite a bit with what I eat pre-wod to try and find what works best for me. I have found personally that I cannot function on an empty stomach. So I look at the WOD and then determine what I can hold down and quickly eat it, very first thing out of bed. email me if you want and I can go into some more specifics on what I've tried.

Wes- I wod at 5:30am and most often go on an empty stomach unless there is max effort in which case i'll eat a fairly large meal before. lately i've been trying some fat and carbs pre-wod, but no big changes so far.

your attitude speaks volumes, mike. nice work.

Aly Jansen said...

Forgot to mention no GHD so I rigged something up on the seat of a lat pull. Not nearly as intense but it got the job done.
For those that care....I'm working on convincing them to get a GHD at Mount Royal.

David X - Check out CFendurance if you're looking for some extra distance work. I've been impressed with their programing. Seems to be well thought out.

Mike - Welcome back! Hope the recovery is going well. Injuries suck.

Hixy - It's cold and wet outside? Embrace the cold. Embrace the wet. A wise man once said, "get comfortable with uncomfortable."

SteveC - Bottom line regarding two-a-days, listen to your body. If, however, you're focusing on O-lifting for the time being, focus on O-lifting for the time being.

Questions for the community:

1. The opposite of 2-a-days: missed workouts - When a WOD is missed due to scheduling or some event out of your control, do you double up the next day, or simply write it off?

2. I have recently (last 2 weeks) started getting KILLER headaches as soon as start picking up the pace in a warm-up or at the beginning of a workout. They are all in the back of my head. I keep going, and it kind of subsides, but doesn't go away. I will generally have the head ache through the night. It feels very similar to a concussion (which I know it's not, by the way. No head trauma as of recent). Anyone have some thoughts? Diet? Bad fish oil or some other supplement? Something else?

Anonymous said...

Forgot to mention:

2nd workout completed two hours after OPT.

100 Pull-ups for time - 4:29

Rest 10 Minutes

Tabatta Run @ 5:36/mile pace on treadmill w/ 1% grade wearing 45# vest.

- Goal for the Pull-ups was 4:00. A bit disapointed.

- Tabatta Run was easier than I thought it would be. Will do outside next time.

I get it down as soon as I wake up which ends up being about an hour before I workout. Never had an issue w upset stomach during WOD. Working out on an empty stomach does not work for me.

Gord said...

steve- I have to miss workouts from time to time due to work commitments (back to back late night and then just too tired in the morning)

I use to do everything I could to get them all in.... but then a wise man (James) once said to me it is better to hit 2 workouts at full intensity then to try and squeeze in 3 and end up doing them just to do them. So when I miss I just ride it off and hit the next one as hard as I can. Extra day rest from time to time is ok.

Warmup/mobility drills

Notes: Well, I tried to hit all the muscle groups tonight without dipping into the tank. Felt strong on everything, especially the muscle ups. I have dialed in my eating since this weekend and I weighed in at a 192# on two scales. The 3 workouts for day 1 of my event this weekend will be posted tomorrow morning. I will probably work hybrid versions of those over the next few days in preparation.

Nice to have you back Mike!
