Ain't this s$%t grand? Wowza!
Great job breaking up the programming for early/late March competitors. Thanks OPT!
Coach,
What about those of us competing in the middle, March 13th&14th. Should we follow the early or late wods?
4 those that want numbers 2 shoot 4... we did the early march WOD abt 3 wks ago or so...
rounds ~19...
would love 2 c someone break 20...
~gm2
You're insane Unit...
I've got Sectionals in early march so I went back to Jan 27th and was going to take it from there. Did Jan 27th before seeing Coach's post today.
Pullups and 135 lb Front Squats on the minute for as long as possible. Failed on the set of 20 Front Squats.
I'll get back on track tomorrow with this WOD.
Late Marcher:
13:52
All HSPU`s unbroken with strict form, no kipping :)They felt great.
L-sit pull ups were broken but also felt much stronger.
I was pretty happy to see this as my legs are still a little sore. Happy rest day tomorrow everyone!!!!
OPT,
Going forward from today, when you post wods specific to marchers.. if we have sectionals in the middle - 13th and 14th, which program should we follow? Thanks for the always impressive programming!!
I did the late Marcher WOD @ 175#-200# plus 5 mins amrap dbl unders after.
Time: 8:34
Dbl Unders 211.. didn't really push myself here but still feeling good about how far my dbls have come..
PWM - 30g carbs from yams and apple sauce plus 40g whey protein
Hour later - baked chicken, bell pepper, broccoli, and an avocado
m/154lb/25yrs Late Marcher
(wrist injury allowed me to do HSPU on fists instead of palms)
19:55
late March
11:50
Holy smokes, James breaks it down like that and there's still people asking for more. C'mon, people!
Gord, how much you weigh?
late march- 175-200#
12:19
Paced this one out, back still sore but better from yesterday. L-ups and hspu felt great.
BWT today = 158#
BWT/207
29:11.
L-pullups were knees bent above 90 degrees, unbroken except last 2.
HSPU were lots of work, but in the round of 9 I found the kip, I like it.
Never thought I would be so happy to see a WOD as I was today. Off to see the chiro for my hip ....
OPT--
This is Robin F/158/32
2008 CF GAMES 8th place
Utah Fitness eleveated 2nd place
You told me to follow "Marchers" since my sectionals are Feb 27-28...still contiue following early March?
Strength is going through the roof!! Deadlift 315lb easy/ Jerks 160lb x 4...Seems i have been training alot of Fast-gylco (with the short intervals)...i am so pumped for next weekend! any advice coach would be great!
34/6'2"/195lbs
Late March:
HSPU's.....bruuuuutal!
21:00
embarrassed to post this time...need to learn how to kip these up...slow and painful singles!
hahaha, am I the only male under 150?
Late March
M/46/5'8"/160
Did the 150-175# workout
Rd1: 15 8 0:46
Rd2: 13 8 2:05
Rd3: 6/5 8 3:38
Rd4: 5/4 8 5:08

Rd6: 5 5/3 8:05
Rd7: 3 5/3 9:14
Rd8: 1 3/2/2/1 10:23
HSPU felt great, hands inside 30" mark, head to deck and full extension - felt much better to put a pause at the top to get the reps.
Had a break through with the L pull ups - my feet used to drop below parallel at the bottom of the drop. Got into a great "kip"/shoulder release rhythm that kept them up at the bottom. Had nothing left last round though.
Did 50 GHD situps and measured the rollout on the rower afterwards - more like 20 meteres from a 1:24 pace.
It's you and me Wes...let the featherweight battle royal begin!

Modified with lightest possible resitance bands for HSPU's. I'm short on time today and this would have taken me 30+ RX'd. I try to switch back and forth but HSPU are a big weakness for me. This was good today. Thx coach!
Can't wait to hit this one!
Since I'm so new to the whole gaming aspect of this, in regards to the HSPU, are you better off to break them up or just go to failure every round? I think I can get the 1st 15ub but but after that who knows!
@ OPT @ 7AM
177#/6'/46yom
24 min.
L ups were relatively easy. HSPU are a different story
Wes- You are not alone. AFT is under 150#.
200+ crew
16:34 - not rx'd.
HSPU to 2.5" target. Still can't do high rep HSPU to full ROM and keep any kind of pace up. I could have timed myself with a sundial doing those rx'd. Need to learn how to kip these.
The L-pulls felt great today. Awesome 3 day cycle coach!
Brandon
BW: 81kg (180lbs)
Time: 18.37
The handstands really broke me down, and I broke them down so many times that couldn´t keep counting... =)
All L-Pullups unbroken.
MIA for the weekend....just got word that Keith booked me a trip to Whistler to watch the Skeleton event. He's spent the last few weeks helping coach his teammates and I'm SUPER STOKED to watch CANADA OWN IT!
Back at it when I return on Monday.
Early March
hspu at 2.5" target
14r + 9 box jumps
181#/6'1/28yom
24:27
Everything pretty broken up, thought the L-pullups were going to be the limiting factor...well they were but not as bad as the HSPU- was quickly into sets of 2 and 1.
Early March
12 rounds
Notes: Kept a steady consistent pace throughout. Everything unbroken, hands behind back for Back Extensions. Body was tired.
10:31
Off to FilFest in Miami WOD 2morrow.
Late March
BWT 175-200
8:56
Was able to get the first 15 HSPU's unbroken, and then it felt as though some sort of large animal jumped on my back. Struggled to find a rhythm doing 1 at a time.
All L pulls unbroken except the last set. Wussed out and had to drop after 4.
All in all, felt pretty good this week.
Man, this site is awesome.
Brad
Early March:
9 rounds + 5 hspu
Steady pace throughout. No misses, but probably couldn't have gone any faster without missing a hspu - these were definitely the sticking point. Finished all reps with feet still on wall. Box jumps were performed to full extension standing on top of box before coming down.
I would think that if you are competing in mid March it would be best to follow the early March schedule or follow a week behind. Anyone elses thoughts on this would be greatly appreciated. That just seems to be the easiest way to me.
Are we allowed to kip the hspus or is it better to slug them out strict
Early March:
11 rounds plus HSPU, BJ, 9 Back Ext
Late Marcher
HSPU to ab mat, chipped away in 2's and singles.
L sit pull-ups felt great
21:32

Glad to be forced to work on this weakness!

HSPUs are definitely a weakness for me.

Went really smooth.
no kipping HSP.
L-sit suppine, legs straight and strong until the end over 90 degree.
5 first sets unbroken (L-sits)
After yesterday my rotators cuff where sore and after that wod my humerus is back in place feel strong and proud hahaha ;)

175-200 WOD
21:44
L-pullups not bad...HSPU strict and slow mostly 2s and 1s...big weakness
BWT 180lb
time=6:59
HSPU-no kip, wide hands, 15 unbroken, rest broken w short rest
L-pullups- held L for full ROM unbroken until last 2 rounds 5-1 and 2-1-1-1-1, failed twice in last round
47/183
13:26
Thumbs inside shoulders, all strict. First 15 unbroken. L's full rom and only last 2 sets broken.
With my horrible work schedule on Wednesdays I could only fit in part 1 yesterday. Did part 2 & today's spread out today.
Part 2 from yesterday
135m, 144m, 143m, 141m
143m, 143m, 142m, 140m
Total of 1131m.
Does anyone have experience in the Concept 2 Model D VS the Model C? I was on fire today holding a 1:42/500m pace... I've never in my life been below a 1:48/500m, I am insanely happy with my results today but could it have to do with the different models?
Females Late March WOD: 12:20
10,9, and 8 reps of HSPU were strict and the rest were kipped. My shoulders are fried now!
Late March;
BW-198, Time=12:14
Used the hand width standard from the AZ Sectionals... in WARM-UP!
Hands wide but not crazy wide with many many singles. L-Pull-ups were flying until the 2nd last round. Loooooooong warm-up again to get the hams loose and shoulders toasty. HSPUs haven't been great lately, my best with those was the 1st 21 straight on my Diane PB about 1000 years ago.
Joey, your time is insane dude. Un-frickin'-real.
Later Marcher
BW-182
Time= 8:38
Late Marcher:
BWT- 188.
19:56 as rx'd. While this time is slow compared to to others it marks a big improvement for me. 10% kipping HSPU.
We did a similiar wod on 9-18-09 and it took me 55:20, b/c of shitty HSPU's. They are still shitty but they are improving.
Early march
Adam- 14 + 5 hspu
Back is toast, was starting to affect box jumps. Hspu all unbroken with some kipping. Box jumps full extension at top.
John - 12 rounds
Hspu all unbroken, box jumps to full extension
139#/5'10"
23:40
Spent about 2/3 of the time doing HSPUs. All HSPUs and L-pull ups strict. Last time doing similar WOD in 9-18-09 took me 26:40 (which had 16 less L-pull ups), so definitely some progress since then.
Later/185#
14:07
HSPUs strict with pause at lockout. Round of 15 unbroken and then mostly 3's after that.
Supinated grip for pullups. Last 3 rounds broken.
Early Marcher:
12 rounds + 3 HPSUs
Yesterday I did the Feb double WOD from January 27th. Pull Ups front squat ladder and hill running.
Made 17 minutes plus 11 front squats in minute 18.
Running felt good, did it on a treadmill with the incline to 15 and started each set with the speed at 7.0 and increased to 8.5 - 9.0
Thank you James!
Early
12 rounds.
B/Ext were the hardest part. two rounds unbroken arms at chest, rest were broken. good hspu endurance.
Nice job unit!!
14 & 1/3 rounds... pain in erector spinae after round 1 was excruciating.
Would really like to try this one again when fresh...

10 rounds.
not the best at hspu.
Late Marcher
11:39
First 15 hspu all unbroken, then went 11,2/8,3/6,3/6,1/5/3/1. breaks were just long enough to get out of the handstand and right back in.
First 2 sets of L's were unbroken and then had to break em up 4,4/4,4/4,2,2/4,2,2/4,2,1,1,/2,1,1,1,1,1,1.
When fatigue kicks in, I have a hard time keeping my left shoulder pulled back in place. Working hard at stabilizing that issue.
Overall great wod!
Late March:
BWT 162
19:02
HSPU were very tough,L pull-ups seemed quite easy in comparison - until last round where I failed quite a few L's. Many HSPU were kipped.
Male 170#
Time- 10:48
This one really plays to my strengths. All HSPUs were unbroken. The pull ups were broken after for all but the first set.

Late March
Today was more of a practice than a real workout but... I got my first handstand pushup!!!!!!!!!!!! YAY!!!!! Have been stuck at 3/4 inch plate for a loooong time, but figured out how to kip today and even though they were all singles, I can finally do them, so I am pumped! Did half the wod as rx'd, but didn't bother really timing it.
Then 50 ghd situps in right around 3 minutes.
f/137/5'5"/24
13 rds + 15 reps
HSPU done on 25lbs+10lbs+abmat

Late March

Notes
- All L-PullUps UnBroken
- HSPUs kicked me in the junk
- Got the first
- Sets looked like this:
15 = 8, 3, 1, 2k, 1k
13 = 1k, 2k, kipping singles from here on out
Nutrition/Supplementation
- PreWO: 16g BCAA-G
- PWO: Shake (30gP and 30gC: Jarrow and Refuel)
- 60 min later: chicken w/ mushrooms and capers, asparagus, mac nuts
This was a truly humbling experience. HSPUs (and overhead strength in general) are my nemesis.
Great WOD...Thanks, coach.
MRI tomorrow for the right knee. Results will get read to me in a little over a week.
Joey,
amazing time...
Following late March, not for competition purposes but for fun
18:48 with band asst on HSPU's and knee up L down on the PU's.
Late Marcher
34:38
Wow I found this workout really hard. My upper body is still wrecked from the last two workouts and I just could not get the HSPUs done. I figured out the kip and that helped. I am happy with how my L-sit pullups are comming along though!
YAY rest day tomorrow!!!
My shoulder still feels a bit sketchy when I do pullups (feels like a strange weakness, and I can't apply all my force) but feels fine for HSPU so I did the early march WOD.
First 5 rounds HSPU strict, then kipping. All unbroken, kept a solid pace the whole time.
19 rounds on the dot.
Late Marcher 192 lbs
18:47
Not super happy with this. L-pull ups were great, actually happy with those, all supinated grip.
HSPUs were brutal. Did about 18 strict the whole time and the rest were kipping. I've been working on them every other day in my warm up so getting better, but not great.
Felt fatigued today, not enough food the past couple of days.
Congrats to all the ladies who earned their first handstand pushup today! Great job!
Early March
9 miserable rounds. Had about 6-7 failed sets of HSPU's with several failures at rep 4. I think I completed 1 or 2 rds in the last 7-8 minutes because of HSPU failures. These are my goat and something I will focus on from here on out.
Early March
18 and 2/3 rounds

Late march group
@CFC
12:40
Notes: first set of HSPUs umnbroken after that I did what I could...however I never did singles (except last 1 of course) which was good...LPUs were unbroken until last 2 rounds...
Late Marchers
175-200#
Current BWT 186
Time: 16:13
After set of 13 not rx'd unless my long hair touching the floor would fool the rep counters. Not every rep but too many to say that time was ligit.
Pull ups were all Unbroken.
HSPU were strict, no idea how to kip! Did he first 15UB and that was pretty much my max.
I have the same question as others about weather to go with early or late marchers for peaking on the 13th and 14th. I guessed and went with late marchers today.
13:52
HSPU felt great. All were strict non-kipping. The L-sit pull ups were tough as usual. Glad to see them in the WODs though, because I can use all the practice at them as I can get.
18:42
Did this late this afternoon at OPT. Haven't had much luck with HSPUs since the fall...I have never been at the point where I could string a lot together, but at least I could previously get full ROM to the floor. In fact, I had almost convinced myself that i 'lost' them. BUT...that kind of self doubt and talk doesn't fly with the amazing guys at OPT. HUGE thanks to Geoff and Michael for their encouragement and reminding me what I am capable of. So, after several months I finally got my HSPU back!!!!(no kip only because I don't know how...). Thanks also to Brett for helping me figure out how to approach the WOD.
L-ups were solid...started and finished every rep in L position.
I echo Katrina's comments...Congrats to Megs and anyone else who got their first HSPU today!
This workout owned me. I did however figure out how to kip the hspu which Im happy with.
All hspu very broken. L pullups were unbroken.
24:14
Late March bodyweight 165 so did 150-175# wod
20:26
I was glad it was all upper body today, my knees have been bothering me after the past few cycles, gonna stretch and ice tommorrow
Weighed in at a disappointing 148.5# today (should have kept my shoes on!)
10:51
HSPU's done with hands at pressing width, just outside shoulders.
Non kipping HSPU and unbroken
Broken L-pullups from rond 5.Started kipping L-pullups in the middle of the 7th round.
Time: 9.42
Early March, 10 rounds.
Did not Kip any of the hand stand push ups, limiting factor seemed to be the back extensions. Getting unbroken box jumps on a 24" box is a bit different than on a 20".

Overall felt good. Gased at the very end with the virtually 16 L sit pullups to do.
75"/189/24yrs
I am also competing in Columbus, OH at the Arnold Classic (looks like it will be crazy, that many people are gonna make me nervous!) I know my Oly lifts will be a problem in the competition, but I thought it would be a cool experience to sign up and support the games and just do my best. I live in Columbus, so if any of you guys coming in town need anything let me know.
Today's workout was awesome for me - I had some shoulder problems and I was new to HSPU just 3-4 weeks ago, and today I got 8 full rounds +2 HSPU in 20:00, and 9 full in 20:58. I did 30" Box and nailed all of these and the Back Extensions UB.
Working on the HSPU was something I know I need going into these sectionals, along with double unders and Front squats. So in my warm-up I have added some Front Squat technique work with 95lbs, and in my cool down I do 5 minutes on jump rope work and I feel like I am coming along well... Thanks for the workout OPT.

late March, 178# m
The HSPUs were slow, but consistent. The L-pull ups were good until the last 2 sets, then became very hard.
Late march. 220 lb BW
2 HSPU/4 L-pullup x 8. 16:49
Struggled to get the last few HSPU sets, and just read about kipping. I will have to learn how to do that.
Pull ups were challenging but doablen rings as usual. Hope to finish pullup bar in the garage this weekend
Hat goes off to those who completed as rx.
Early Marcher
16 rounds
HSPU's felt solid for a change
Box Jumps felt strong and fast
Back Extensions were easy, provided the rest
42.40 rx'd
Didn't care about my time as I have only ever done 1 strict HSPU before and I wanted to rx this wod. Re-did 8 more HSPU at the end as the first 8 I did to a 2.5# plate.
All HSPU were strict and broken (obviously) and L Pullups broken started at 6.
Can anyone tell me what the standard is for L Pullups? Can I drop my legs once I reach lock out at the bottom and then bring them back up for next rep? Does that make sense?
18:54 rx'd @ 169# bwt
no kip on hspu...hands just outside shoulders
l-pullups unbroken for all but last 3 rounds...done strict and to full ROM, legs straight, feet above 90 degrees...all started and finished in L position
hspu crushed me...after first 13 unbroken, they turned into a couple of triples, some doubles and lots of singles...brutal!
