  3. how exactly do you do a supinated chin up? back towards ground, and pull from that position??

  4. Bench: 60kg, 65kg, 65kg, 65kg, 70kg, 70kg
    Chinups (not sure if weighted, so did first 4 sets weighted and then BW): 16kgx3x4, BWx3x2

    Strict ring dips: 14, 7, 5 (!)
    Dead hang to inverted: 3xbroken up

    Not enough space to dead hang with extended legs so did as good as I could. Very hard stuff.

    Ryan B - I understood the supinated chin-up as a regular chin-up. Palms facing to the back (supinated).

    Please correct me if I'm wrong.

  9. OPT & Gang,
    Just a note of thanks... I've followed your blog for about 4 months and have seen many improvements, but wasn't sure how to quantify it until yesterday when I skipped the rest day and decided to do Elizabeth. I finished in a personal best of 6:45, beating two guys in the gym who used to always beat me in just about everything. I'm not saying I've surpassed them, as they're sure to kick my butt tomorrow and the next day, but progress is progress... so thank you for that.

  13. Are the Supinated Chin Ups done weighted? Or are we all a little keen after the 2 days of rest?

    pretty pleased overall, my bench is a weakness, but today was the first time in my entire life that i did multiple dips unassisted, great ROM also...pretty pumped!

  18. Not exactly sure what a ring inversion entails or whether or not I can do them.

    firstly, can anyone explain them to me?

    secondly, knees to elbows/toes to bar are appropriate subs?

    thanks all!

  25. James,
    received the gift package today. thanks again for all the goodies! I signed up for the BlackBox Seminar the weekend after the next OPT challenge and am eagerly looking forward to hearing what you have to share!

    Big Dawgs,
    For those of you that take the OPT Refuel, do you use it as instructed on the package (once 20 minutes before, once during, and once after) or do you use it in some other way? Any advice would be extremely helpful, thank you!

  32. Colin, for CF'ers it is best post wod, otherwise you'll have dark stuff all over your gym floor coming out of your mouth...
    the leaner you are, the more you take, the premise behind making it was to get oxidative repair for the serious fitness enthusiast ASAP..as well as CNS back in order within 45-60 min...have 3 sc right after with water and then a meal 45-60 min later and let me know how it goes...thanks

  40. Colin,
    As OPT said, pwo only with the refuel.
    My BF % is below 8%, so today for example, I had 2 scoops Refuel (40g CHO + 16g pro) and 1.25 scoops of Dreamwhey (25g pro) to get my 40 g pro/40 g cho post work out.

  41. Had to sub today didn't get to gym...

    7 rounds
    10db hang squat cleans 15lbs per hand

    A2: 40#*3, 40#*3, 40#*3, 40#*3, 40#*3, 40#*3 (probably could have done heavier weighted pulls, but it would have affected explosiveness coming up)

    B1: 10, 7, 6 (pretty disappointed, gotta work on dips as well as ring dips)

    B2: I had no idea what to do for this so I subbed in toes to bars for as many reps as I could which ended up being, 10, 6, 6. Also pretty sad, but I don't have a lot of practice with it, oh well.

    I need to video my dead hang to inverted and get some feedback as I am really not sure I am doing them right. Tried to google, but didn't find anything real clear. Any tips? I am just doing a dead hang pullup, turning till completely inverted, then rotating back the same way and down to dead hang...make sense?

    B1. 13, 11, 8 (spectacular failure on the last rep of the last set)
    B2. Broken

    I should have gone up in weight earlier for the bench press. Last set of 245 was the only set that I worried I wouldn't make.

  51. Did a modified version of today's wod. Felt pretty good. While working on the inversions I was reminded just how little core stability I have (hey, I am 12 weeks postpartum).

    Also, yesterday I did Fran as rxed for women! Halfway through Rory asked if I wanted to scale the weight for the thrusters and he got a nice glare from me for even asking. Needless to say, I'm super happy with myself.

    B2: 10/6/4 - Unbroken counts although I finished each set of 10.

    It was a successful hunt this last weekend and it's good to be back. I had a tenancy to drag out my counts on these longer than they should. Inversions were tougher than I expected. Low hanging rings today forced me to remain in fetal position at the bottom.

    ReplyDelete
  55. Joel B,
    DH to inverted doesn't involve a pull up. You are trying. To get inverted keeping your arms long. I use a little kip to get going. Your core gets you to inverted, but once you are there you need to have your torso & legs fully extended with the head neutral and the shoulder blades retracted. You can then return to the bottom.
    I hope this helps.

    Nice improvement for me on the inversions. The last time we did these, I was doing doubles and singles. Everything else felt pretty good. This was a nice bit of programming, James. Just the right WO for me after the three doubles and the two days off.

    Walked about 50 minutes and did an hour of SMR and mobility in the evening.

    gym closed at that point before I was able to do B so I will have to double up tomorrow, I guess.
