Only time for 3 rounds of the gymnastics. Increased ROM 17cm on HSPU and did 5, 4 and 3 rep/round. GHD unbroken. Didn't really feel that explosive on jumps. Didn't measure height.
Both kids are sick.- Wonder I I'll get it too?

GHD. Unbroken
HSPU were done on paralettes which are a foot off of the ground and I spaced them 28 inches apart. I put two 25's and a 10 lb bumper on ground for head to touch. So my head was touching a target 5 inches off of the ground
PTS and Wes I made some commments on your Snatching yesterday.

Still being very careful with the knee, so squats are light but smooth. All pull-ups were butterfly with whole head over horizontal plane and no pauses to reset.
I will have to get to the gymnastics portion in a couple hours, will post then.

HSPU- 12, 7, 6
GHD situps- broken every set, still a big weakness due to hip flexor weakness.
Front squats were all heavier than last time, first and last set of pullups were more.
Was smoked after FS/ PU. Did not eat enough this morning I don't think. I couldn't recover at all after my pull ups.

ReplyDeleteAucoin I appreciate you taking the time to watch my video. I was a little confused though because to me it appears that I am pausing for a count of one one thousand in the hang position after each rep.

ReplyDeleteHey James or any Big Dawg,
ReplyDeleteshould we do pullups the same way as last week to compare results/improvement or should we switch it up such as doing strict pullups this week?
I just wanted to express my love of Lady Gaga. She's/he's just about the best musician I've ever ever seen in my whole life.
ReplyDeleteI also love Nickleback!

ReplyDeleteIf this is the video you are talking about then no, you are definately not pausing at the bottom of the snatch, you are pausing in the hang position. Easy mistake.
haha alrite Aucoin thanks. Obviously I am a little slow so let me make sure I have this right.
ReplyDeleteAfter each rep I need to bring it all the way to the floor, and pause?

ReplyDeleteA2 20,19,19,11,11- elbow felt good, it just felt like I had never done a chin before.fighting to find any rhythm. chalk it up a being a little rusty on the chin up bar.
Hspu- used push up bars. 7,7,6,6
vertical jump - tried to touch the top of the 8 ft bar at opt. might have been able to get a credit card under there
GHD situps- unbroken X 3, last set did 10,10,5 (I also didn't do 2 hands as it caused lower back pain)
A1. Front squat - 168.5x3,173.5x3, 178.5x3,183.5x3,188.5x3 The form and speed felt really good today.
ReplyDeleteA2. AMRAP pull ups - 28,22,22,20,20I gave about 85-90% on this to test my neck & traps. I did all continuous and tried to maintain rhythm and form. These felt good also.

HSPU on parallettes to abmat, so about 1" below normal. THese were hard and I had a hard time keeping my feet on the wall. 4,4,4,3
Vertical jumps - max height about 24"
GHD sit ups were all unbroken. The last 2 sets were slow in the last 10 reps.

New modified GHD situp (thanks Ali) 25 for all
joey, if chin up volume improvement is impt to you then do the same, if variation is key, change it up, or change the entire movement to L ups or diff grips for change, rule of thumb, if you can avg more than 30/set you should vary your grips on this one...

HSPUs done head to ground on paralletes about 4 inches off the ground. 3 reps each round. I would never have thought this would have made such a huge difference to my numbers. Dropped them by a more than 50%. Jumps were unmeasured but probably not all that impressive. Subbed 35 anchored situps for the GHDs as I'm nursing a tweaked lower back.
Went up in each set of front squats, either in weight or reps.
Pullups went up for 3 out of the 5 sets (for a total of 5 reps). Last two sets stayed the same.
Wes. No. You pause at the bottom of the movement, not the floor. If the bar touched the floor, it wouldn't be a hang power snatch.
ReplyDeleteHold the bar, dip down to the point where you'd normally dip for a HPS (like mid-thigh) but PAUSE THERE FOR ONE SECOND and then explode up.
Get it? Got it? Good.

*last two rounds of pullups were strict. Why, you might ask?.......the honest truth is I was being a baby, my hands hurt because I had no chalk. I need to grow some balls....well, not really, but you know what I mean.
On a side note, things were back to normal today - squats were better than chins - warm up was better and made a big difference.
HSPUs done to the floor. Was able to get 4 FULL HSPUs the first round which is a big PB!!!! :o)(Previous PB is 1)
Only did three rounds as I had to start work; they went as follows
1. 4 full Hspus and 6-8 lowers (I was concentrating more on counting my speed on the lowering so I lost track of how many I did in total.
2. 2 full HSPUs and 8 lowers
3. 9 lowers (or more like 8 lowers and 1 head plant)
All jumps completed and, if I had to guess, they were approx. 12 - 14 inches above extended arm height.
All GHD situps completed but had to modify slightly as they started to hurt my low back.
joey...
ReplyDeleteas an echo to coaches wonderful comments, i agree. personally, i have been taking the opportunity on this strength cycle to do pullups in a strengthening manner. for me, it's been softball grip L-pullups recently... and i can say that i feel that it's making a difference, especially in my ring muscle up work (did 5 L muscle-ups in a row yesterday messing around... previous PR was 1 in a row)...
geoff,
i want to thank you for pointing out the correct hang snatch cadence... after reading what you've said, i realize i've been doing it wrong as well and not pausing at maximally low position of the bar... i'll correct this... thank you... i suspect this will drop my weights big time.

I don't have an HSPU so instead of going for reps I worked on just holding the hand stand in place. I also worked out in a gym with an extremely low ceiling and so had to sub broad jumps for box jumps. Nor was there a GHD or back extension station so I subbed in K2E, which I had to break up into numerous sets as my forearms and grip were shot.
B1) HS-hold for time 30/30/30/15seconds - this last one failed due to my foot slipping into a deep crack in the wall which made me loose my balance and fall.
B2) broad jumps completed/unmeasured
B3) K2E completed/broken
I'm still working on my main goats and will hopefully be able to hit more of these as rx'd in the near future. My failure to do so is a function of not being skilled enough and only having access to extremely poor facilities. My main goats: snatch, DU, HSPU, MU. I wanted to finish off the day with extra snatch and DU practice but didn't have any time.

Right knee felt pretty good all day. Broke down and took an 800mg Motrin last night. Knee felt almost perfect all day. Is starting to hurt a little again now, but I think I will continue to refrain from exercises using it and might also start a regular use of the Motrin.

Chris- I would get to a physical therapist or someone that can do active release therapy. I went once for an hour visit, and the next day i felt great. I would go 1x per week for 3-4 weeks and you should see a big improvement. Also roll on your IT Band, TFL and massage your patella tendon to work out the nasty fluid.
Geoff, I don't think that tempo is correct. Wouldn't that make it a mid-hang muscle snatch?
ReplyDeleteJosh,
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot. I've been rolling the ITB, but will start rolling the TFL as well as massaging the PT too. I am currently waiting on a call back from Physical Therapy, hopefully I will be in next week w/ an appointment.
Did you use Motrin or anything of the sort? I was really trying to avoid it, but it has been a while now and I am starting to get pretty antsy.

resorted to gloves between sets...cold and hard to hold bar otherwise. Regular grip and chin breaking vertical plane on all sets/reps. More than last time on both A1 and A2. Wore my polypro layer and that helped too I think.
HSPU: 3, 5, 4, 4
All sets parrellettes 24" apart. 1st set head to 6" below. Too much for me. Subsequent sets to 4".
Vert jumps: all to 9' target. Got up past wrist on all...measured about 8-10" from finger to wrist area roughly. So roughly to 9'9" give or take on all attempts. This means my vj is about 24-26" based on my reach. One step and jump with both feet on all attempts.
GHD situps: double hand touch, but hands overhead sagged a little the last 10 reps of the last 2 sets especially. Some momentum going on. Unbroken though.

Frustrated with my gymanstic skills. Short on time with studying for finals today so only got first 2 rds in. had 4 then 1 on the paralletts. Never done these and they kicked my butt. Definitely incorporating into my warmups.

I only used an anti-inflammatory for the big dawg comp, thats it. Its a temporary fix. You need to get to the root of the problem. LOTS of rolling around the knee and quad. Massage the entire patella tendon, horizontally to go againest the grain, cross-fiction. Also look at your squatting form. Watch kelly staretts vid on squatting. I have been crossfitting over 4 years and i still dont have a perfect squat, it comes with time but i picked up a few things from that vid. I would work slow tempo air squats focusing on keeping knees out over the toes and your ass back, only go to the depth at which there is ZERO discomfort, that will bring back the muscle memory in your legs. Tell your PT to "strain counterstrain" your piriformas. I got MUCH more external rotation out of my right hip after having that done. That allowed me to keep my knee over my right foot much easier. Hopefully some of this helps.

B3: unbroken-unbroken-20/5-13/6/6
HSPUs performed head to ground. I haven't performed these in 6 months due to some lingering shoulder pain from an AC injury. Everything is healed up now, and though weak, these felt pretty smooth.
Still easing the knee back into action, so skipped out on the jumps.
GHD SUs were rough today.

ReplyDeleteA1 FSx3: 80/90/100/110/125kg (275#) All sets of 3 and at tempo. 135kg (Nov 5, 2009) is my highest single front squat. So the fact that these were at tempo says a lot.
A2 AMRAP PU: 30/20/20/21/21 - Total: 113 - Tore hands again and improved the count from last week. I didn't take set 1 to failure.
AMRAP xRom HSPU: 10/7/6/6 (5" depth to floor for all sets)
5 Max Vert: Jumped with everything I had. Didn't measure.
25 Unb GHD Situps: All sets unbroken however I went to one arm on stomach and the other to the floor. Honestly, my abs felt like they had been cut open and sewn back together just prior to starting this exercise. I wasn't sure if this was a good idea to attempt them but now that I'm done, they honestly don't feel much worse then they did before I started.

HSPU done to 10kg bumper with narrower hand placement. 6 strict/1kip - 5 strict/2kip - 3 strict/5kip - 1 strict/7 kip
Vertical jump no tape measure. Was pretty aggressive on these and aimed for my gym roof which i think is about 9+ foot. Got it 3/5 average.
GHDSU unbroken
Feeling pretty flat half way through these longer conditioning sessions. Have reached for a nibble of CHO mid workout a few times lately.. I pick up really quickly once i do eat/ drink something.. I have 2/3 my block prescription in CHO during the day with a x3-5 fat depending on how i feel.. This has been working for me with energy levels, performance, body comp and recovery until this bonking feeling i've been getting. I use the pwo guidelines of 8-12%. I could be leaner now however..
ReplyDeleteMy thoughts are that i have come from an endurance sporting background and generally go pretty solid on 15-20+ amrap metcons as i find them very similar to some triathlons i used to do. (That's my groove if you remember back to Jame's discussion on 'greasing the groove') So these stop start strength wods hit me hard.. I'm responding very well to them due to having my sleep/nutrition/focus on track. I'm just curious if James or anyone has some opinions so i can tweak and play with a few things on a nutrition front..
I eyeball paleo/zone with a little less CHO and more fat. i occasionally have a short black coffee pre wod and use a clean whey with cacao powder with berries or sweet potato pwo.
Thoughts?
