post loads used to comments
get deep on squats
pay attention to tempo; no rest is to be taken at bottom or top of either movement
the goal is challenging sets for 1-5, tough for 6-8 and barely make-able for 9-10
Haha, OK, I can go to bed now.
ReplyDeleteIn the spirit of crossfit and in honor of the 4 soldiers and Calgary Herald reporter who lost their lives Wednesday in Kandahar I will put everything i have into todays workout, I will dig deep, and work extra hard as my shoulders feel like they are going to explode during the OHS and pullups.
ReplyDeleteAlso for any dawgs that are coming from out of town to participate in the January 23rd challenge at Natural High. We have two extra bedrooms in our house and your own bathroom, shower etc. Anyone who would like to come on Friday and crash at our house is more than welcome. And for anyone that would like to chill between WODs I am only about 20 minutes from Okotoks so you are welcome to come back to my house rest, stretch, eat, relax etc.
I see this workout being quite difficult... Especially with the strict chin ups with taking 1 second to go up and then 3 seconds to lower... Should be a great workout, but very taxing....
ReplyDeleteUnit. Next you'll be using paint tins and small children ala unbreakable!
ReplyDeleteUnit, saw those videos of yours now and it was fantastic!

A2A on all OHS. Upper body strength was the limiting factor on the OHS. Shoulders were fried.
From todays CF video...
ReplyDeleteSevan: Mikko you dont fall on the ground and breath heavy after a workout?
Mikko: I read in an article once that when an animal surrenders they go laying on their back, then I decided I will never go laying on my back, its a sign of weakness and surrendering.
scary

ReplyDeleteGarage CF: there are some crazy tough finns! Mikko is certainly one of them.
ReplyDeleteThat sectionals here is gonna be pretty intense, with finland, sweden, iceland, denmark & norway! I bet we're gonna see some really good athletes come out of the dark.
Well, I can see flurries outside here in Nashville... Unfortunately, I can't go overhead in my garage and my pullup bar is outside lol... this is going to suck.
ReplyDeleteOn the pullups.. there is no way I can do 10 strict pullups in a row.. let alone 100.. (i got 13 min on the ladder wod the other day)... Should I just do AMRAP on the PU with that set tempo?
Thanks!

GHD's unbroken- very hard
BRUTAL wod, sat with head in toliet for 20 min after but i didnt puke. I have to re-analyze my diet and the amount of cals im taking in. I seem to be gaining more weight even though im not eating more cals. I function best at 175-177. Last time i weighed in i was 182, 2 months ago but i feel much heavier than that now.

Came so close to meeting pukie on the GHD's. Damn, I've got a lot of training to do.
Keep it coming.
Ok if Unit can only do the pullups with body weight I am screwed.
ReplyDeleteWould it be best to do as many strict as possible then kip the rest or do them with rubber assist and keep the strict movement and tempo??
OHS- 95# (1-8), 100# (9-10) (fail on 100th rep)
ReplyDeletePU- BWT for all 10 (brutal).
NOTES: 95# was tough for first 3 sets, got a bit easier for 4-6, then got REAL hard again resulting in a failure on rep 10 of set 10.
Pull ups felt good early then got really hard at the end.
GHDs were completed unbroken but hurt like hell.

ReplyDeletehahahaha, I made the mistake of training yesterday...did a 10-1 HSPU ladder and then a 10min KB WOD. I will now and forever always take the scheduled day off!
ReplyDeleteOHS- stayed on 75#.
Chin up- Used a band from round 6 on (wasn't sure if I should kip, or stay strict-- so i went with strict + thin band)
I'm gonna change my posting name to: LAP DAWG
A1: 1-5 @ 95#'s; 6-8 @ 110; 120X9, 120X8
ReplyDeleteSets 6-8 the tempo faltered on 1-2 reps per set--an exhale/inhale at top. Couple tempo failures on sets 9&10 as well. Wasn't sure where to start/progress on this one.
A2: BW on all. Set 9&10 only completed 9 and 8 reps. These were barely make-able from set 5 on.
GHD's on a roman chair alternating hand touch to floor. 1 and 2 unbroken...set 3 15/10.
This was a tough one on many levels. OHS are a killer, but hurt so good.
This wod killed me.

Rest period between A1, and A2 was closer to 2 mins by the last few sets. Wrists, and shoulders majorly fatigued. Chins way harder than anticipated. Happy with OHS until last 2 sets. Could barely support barbell overhead by set 9.
3 min rest between GHD sets.

Jumped to fast in the beginning of OHS. Later sets my wrists were extremely sore. Last set when I lost the barbell on my third rep it hit my head on the way down...OUCH!
A1. 95, 100, 110, 110, 110, 115, 115, 115, 120, 125 all sets of 10 and strict tempo, 0 pause at top and bottom.
ReplyDeleteA2. Bwt for all ten sets. Broke tempo in sets 9 and 10 and had to pause at the bottom.
GHDs were very broken.
I'm with garage crossfitter, I almost puked at the end of this one. But I held it down, just lots of moist burping. This really took my heart out.
Word verification is toret. As in, I used to have a stomach but this workout toret out.
A1: 95, 105, 115, 115, 120, 120(7-3), 120(7-3), 120(9-1), 120(4-5-1), 120(6-4)

Notes: Haven't OHS in a long time even though they're one of my favourite. Felt pretty solid for the most part, the majority of the fails were because of fatigue in the shoulders and wrists. Tempo was good and depth was A2G.
Chin ups weren't great, only first set unbroken. Wasn't sure if I should have gone to a band or just stop after I broke or done kipping?
Rested about 30 seconds between broken sets. GHDs were done on stability ball. Not looking forward to waking up tomorrow morning.
A1 95,100,105,110,115x6
ReplyDeleteA2(3/4" band)10x3,9,8)(1" band)8x5
just to be clear, for A2 I meant 3 sets of 10 when i posted 10x3, and 5 sets of 8, when i posted 8x5.
ReplyDeletethat was a suckfest... unable to maintain tempo on the pullups after the 4th set... some kipping involved from thereafter.
ReplyDelete45, 55, 65, 75, 85,90, 95, 100, 105(5/5), 110(5/1) didn't have it to finish off the set. very challenging!
ReplyDeletebw, 2#, 3#, 3#, 5#, 5#, bw for the rest. only first 3 rds were unbroken.

15,15.
OHS at tempo was a creeper. By 7th set the hold was very challenging, and going up would have been foolhardy . Pissed that I dropped the last rep but right arm gave out. Same deal on set 10.
Feel wiped out after session with time under tension the answer.
Nice one....

GHD were very tough: set 1 and 2 unbroken, set 3 broken into 10 and 15
Wanted to go heavier with the overhead squats, but my shoulders were toast by the later sets
My second workout with OPT:s programming- Missunderstood and did my chin ups wrong! 3 sek up and 1 down:(

Strengths: bottom position felt strong
Weakness:
1)have not done overhead squats for 3 months...wrists were not used to load...lots of pain
2) Hard to stay focused with tempo and counting reps at same time...
PUs
could only do the first 2 sets straight through then had to fraction...tempo was challenging
GHDs
Felt pain in the lower back (left side)...perhaps due to lack of hip flexibility?

Maintained tempo on the squats, but probably should have started heavier. Pull-ups were a huge struggle. Broke when I couldn't maintain tempo. Sit-ups were smooth, two hands to ground.
kizzee, yes
ReplyDeleteothers who cannot complete as rx'd for all reps, the idea is the 40 sec of work per set, so overload the eccentric if you have to to get to 40 sec of work...i.e. 7 strict ones under tempo, then do 4-6 negatives to ensure you do the rest of the 12 sec of work left from the 28 sec of work done by doing 7 reps at 4 sec each...cool?
Jenny, yes, you are recording right except 3 sec up and 1 sec down is tougher...good on ya.

Nasty cold that presented itself the day back from our 5 day hiatus. Terrible timing. First day of training for me in 8 days therefore. Will get todays wod in later today.
ReplyDeleteDid yesterdays wod just now.
1. Power clean 255# felt good. Just 5# off pr but I followed orders and stopped after 7 min

ReplyDeleteThis was only my 3rd Big Dawg WOD, and I had the same question as Kizzee. I did the WOD before Coach posted his response to Kizzee's question, so I ended up doing all the chin-ups at tempo but broken. Next time I will know the correct way to go though.
A1. 65/70/75/80/85/85/85/85/90/95
All OHS were unbroken. On the last 2 rounds there were 1 or 2 max reps that I had to regain balance at the top of the movement, so that obviously required a quick pause.
A2. 8,2/7,2,1/5,2,2,1/5,2,2,1/5,2,1,2/4,2,2,2/4,1,2,1,2/4,2,2,2/4,2,2,1,1/4,2,2,2
Strict chin ups are a weakness of mine. As I mentioned above they ended up very broken. But I took minimal rest when I broke (just enough time to note it quickly note the break) and then was right back on the bar.
GHD sit-ups - all 3 sets unbroken. Started 90 sec. after last set of OHS and Chin ups, and took 90 sec. rest between each round of GHDs.
1. Did not know we were supposed to go up in weight. Did all 10 sets x10 reps at 60lbs, could have gone up to 70 lbs. Did all reps, every set, unbroken.
ReplyDelete2. Did strict pull ups enitre time but had to break them up as follows:
1st set= 8-4 2nd set=8-4 3rd set=8-4, 4th set= 8-2-2, 5th set= 8-2-2, 6th set= 8-2-2, 7th set= 6-3-1,
8th set = 6-2-2, 9th set=6-2-1-1,
10th set = 6-2-1-1
GHD for 1 set
Knees to elbows 2 sets
Should have asked about the weight for the OHS. Really enjoying these workouts, this is my 3rd one :)
Started with 115# but could not get stable and keep the count. Finally got comfortable the OHS was able to go up in weight

GHD 1 round, anchored sit-ups last 2
A1 : 95-105-115-125-135-145-155-165-175(X9)-175
ReplyDeleteA2 : 3 last sets broken 9-1, 7-3, 8-2
A3 : no problem powerful and explosive.
**QUESTION FOR GHD SIT UPS :
What about touching the floor on one side and alternate to the other versus touching both at the same time like at the game?
I found both at the same time give me the worst headache and sharp pain in the lower back even if I keep my abs tight?

GHD: First round BLAZING, 2nd and 3rd were slow grinding singles but unbroken.
The last two workouts we've had are what the hell I need! This one today was meant to separate the big dawgs from the rest of the competition. It was kind of like playing a rigged game of Jenga where your bound to lose. I am whooped. Spent 20 minutes sitting on a bicycle until the headache went away. Brutal!
Steve, I too went to bed just after reading the WOD last night. If I don't check it before bed, I sometimes lay awake wondering what it is. Had a dream that Unit and I did this workout last night at a dysfunctional gym of some kind. Strange.
Jefff, great freaking job on the OHS!

After being out for a while it seems pull ups suffered the most.
okay so i stayed 100% true to the cadence and rest periods which meant i thought once i reached failure the set was done. maybe i was wrong on this.

Didn't think I was going to get this one in today.. My box was closed and was doing a special wod today on the Beach - "The Burpee Sand Mile" - self explanatory... I did it in an Hour and 6 mins 1:06:00
ReplyDeleteThen an hour later got to use my buddies Olympic Bar and busted out this Wod minus GHDs which Ill hopefully throw into tomorrows..

Stopped after the fifth set due to poor planning; family was waiting me.
Did this at a globo in palm desert. No bumpers, and not being able to avoid my image in a mirror took away my mojo. Look forward to getting home tonight.

wrist got to sore during 7th set to hold on so I decided to drop weight a bit everything else was feeling good
OUCH gonna feel this one tomorrow
ReplyDeleteA1: 65/65/70/80/80/85/85/85/95/95 all unbroken - tried to go as fast as i could to minimize the time spent with bar overhead. made sure i seated it into shoulder blades. These actually felt really good
A2: BW (plus the damn 5# i gained over the holidays - ha ha) did them all but were broken 6/4, 6/4, 6/4, 5/3/2 for the rest
Supinated grip is very hard for me because i have a pin in my left arm and cannot supinate that wrist fully so it is quite awkward. But i am proud that i did them all. There is no way i could have done 100 strict pullups at any tempo before i started this programming.
Love the shirt idea james also thought of "less wag, more bite!"

Was posting as Gibson, now linked to my Google account.
ReplyDeleteA1. 65-65-75-75-85-85-85(9)-80-80-85(9)
A2. 10-10-8-7-7-4-5-5-4-4
Notes:
OHS: Perhaps too ambitious on OHS weight increase. Was challenging to drive up at tempo and maintain weight in heels. Found myself migrating to toes. Got better throughout sets. Limiting factor was not being able to drive up at the 1 second tempo. Weight ok.
Pull-ups: First two sets completed at tempo. For the remainder, number reflects the number I completed at tempo. Finished out remainder of :40 seconds jumping to top of pull-up bar and working 3 second negative. Full lock out at bottom of every pull-up and chin squarely over bar.
Would like to confirm that I read and completed the workout correctly:
A1, set 1
:90 second rest
A2, set 1
:90 second rest
A1, set 2
:90 second rest
A2, set 2
:90 second rest
...and so on completing A1/:90 rest/A2/:90 rest through ten rounds
Did this after a 12 hour car ride. Felt great to MOVE!

A2. BodyWeight - All unbroken. 1-7 as RX's. Had to kip up for reps 9/10 on sets 8/9 and also for reps 8-10 on set 10.
GHDs: Rested 3 minutes between A2 and GHDs. Rested 2 minutes between sets. All unbroken; last set was definitely slower than first 2.
PWO: 40gP (Jarrow shake), 20gC (mashed yams w/ cinnamon)
60 min later: ShortRib Stew, apple, almond butter
Notes:
A1. Stayed light. Noticed that from avoiding squatting exercises over the past several weeks, I have lost significant flexibility at the bottom. Was only able to get to about 2-3" below parallel before my heels started coming up. The knee held up pretty well.
A2. These felt pretty good until later rounds when the upward movement got rough late in the sets. Was able to maintain the negatives.
GHDs: First 2 sets were fast and smooth. The last set was a little rough and definitely slower, but still OK.
A1. 65/85/95/105/105/105/105/115/115/115

5th set on were broken, tried hard to keep tempo and strict.
GHD Sit ups were done after 2min rest, were tough, back got tight but finshed all, all set were broken.

a2. 10x10 bw
tempo, tempo, tempo. Tough to stay on tempo during the last sets of all of these. Specifically the no rest at bottom or top was a killer.
A1. 95 for all 10 sets
ReplyDeleteA2. 10 BW all 10 sets
On the 10th set of the OHS i lost control on the 8th rep.
Strict chin ups went well. 7,8,9,10 were fractioned.
Time between sets was way off. I did this at a globo gym and had no watch.
well i just realized i did this wod wrong. supposed to be alternating between the ohs and chin up. i did them all back to back. would have made a big difference. i get it now.

Notes:
A1: Dropped set #9 @ six. Picked it up and squeezed out two more. Set 10 was full. Tempo became easier as load increased due to more deliberate movements.
A2: Used a timer to ensure full 40 seconds of work. I finished all sets with jumping then negative. Initially finished all ten, then 7 on sets 6-10. Very Tough.

ReplyDeleteA2:all bodyweight, kipped a few on the last few sets
A1. used 20 lb bar due to some hip pain & maintained tempo
ReplyDeleteA2. i got anywhere from 2-5 each round at tempo and finished the rounds with kipping pull-ups.

ReplyDelete1. 45/65/65/65/75/75/75/75/75
ReplyDeleteFocused on tempo and form (lower right back got tight towards the end and it was difficult to maintain active shoulders)
Part 2. 10/5-2-3 assisted/10 ass/10ass/10 ass/10 ass.
Had to scale to elastics towards end of 2nd set. Very hard with down tempo. Stayed strict (lats and biceps worked hard and left lat got tight). Only did 6 sets due to time restraints (probably a good thing)
3. 3 x 25 GHsit-ups. I did 2 sets unbroken. Didn't do third set due to time restraints.
A1. Subbed Back Squat b/c of a shoulder flexibility @ 65# rds 1-5 75# rds 6-8, and 80# rds 9-10
ReplyDeleteA2. Used a Green band in rds 1-5, Blue band in rds 6-7, and Green in rds 8-10.
Subbed knees to elbows for GHD sit ups which I'm starting to think are much worse than doing them on the GHD machine.

ReplyDeleteMade a mistake in my original post:
ReplyDeleteM/5.11/175/30
Wow, this was sooo much harder than it looks on paper. The rx'd tempo changes EVERYTHING. Kicked my ass.
A1.95/95/95/105/105/115/115/115/120/130 - 10 reps every set, rx'd tempo, unbroken, probably should have gone just a little heavier.
A2. BW/BW/2.5/2.5/2.5/BW/BW/BW(9)/BW(9)/BW(7) - 10 reps every set except where noted otherwise, unbroken, very humbling, rx'd tempo. Pull-Ups are usually a strength of mine, this took me out of my element for sure.
GHD Sit Ups, all 3 sets of 25 unbroken, took about 2 minutes rest between sets. Which is great as GHD sits ups are a weakness of mine.
