  2. Late may, part 1:
    A1. No ball or height at home, did thrusters with empty bb instead (20kg/44 lbs). 40/40/30/40. Broke the third round because I was not feeling my shoulders anymore. Changed technique into more legdrive. Fourth round was a pain - higher tempo, but finished.
    A2: No place to do kipping chinups in, subbed to strict chinups. 10/10/10/fail(8)/rested 3 mins/10.

    Rested ~1 hr.
    Part 2:
    Subbed HSPU's to 4. (PR is 7). Only had a 1.5 pd kbs at home :(
    5 laps +4 HSPU. HSPU's was 1+3/3+1/unbr/unbr/unbr/3+1

    Felt really tired during the second part, I think my nutrition today has been a little bit too low. HSPU's felt really good tho, never done so many reps with so little breaks.

  3. Rested yesterday after a party this friday... Going after Saturdays WODs today:

    part 1
    A. 2x170kg deadlifts
    B1. 3x70kg, 3x75kg, 3x80kg, 3x80kg, 3x70kg, 3x75kg
    B2. 17, 11, 10, 11, 10, 10
    C. 3x18 GHD reaises (45 degree bench..)
    D. 3x18 40kg russian swings

    Notes:
    Like the DL! Been feeling weak in this lift for awhile, but now things are clearing up a bit (3x160 last week).
    Practised tech in PC because tech breakes down with 80+kgs. Really must learn how to stay in heels and not jump wide with feet (bend those darn knees instead!).
    Put in some swings with raises because the 40kg KB yelled for attention.

  4. I think I got food poisoning after yesterday's first workout. Couldn't keep anything down, major chills etc so I had to skip the part 2 runs. Feeling better now but definitely don't have the juice to do today's WODS either. I haven't eaten anything in close to 20 hours.

    I'll have to hit these up tommorrow.

    Brutal!

  5. I decided to only do Part II today due to time retraints with our house being shown (we are selling it). After part II i had a few more minutes so i banged out 2 sets of WB and CHINS with a 15 min rest between wods

    Part II
    3 rd + 4 hspu
    * HSPU done on 3.5 inch 45# bumpers, wow those were way harder. Situps and swings unbroken.

  8. I absolutely fell apart on a workout last Sunday, I'm suspecting that I may be experiencing some overtraining. Took the whole week off, starting some active recovery this week. Doing the workouts at a very moderate pace.

    Early may workout:
    3:40, 3:30, 3:20
    Nice, easy pace, but I still struggled.

    Part 2: 18:25
    Really took my time on this one, and it still crushed me.

    I'm going to keep taking it pretty easy this week, next Tuesday I will try full speed again. I swear I will stop filling rest days with other workouts, and skipping my post workout carbs. I don't ever want to feel this way again.

    5x1km run: 3:43, 3:47, 3:47, 3:51, 3:47

    Consistent times, but still slower than I liked. And it was harder than I liked. Only second time running this year (first time 200m sprints the other week), so I guess it'll come...

    ReplyDelete

    part 2
    since i'm terrible at hspu i decided to cut the rep scheme in half to keep things moving.
    (6 hspu, 9 kbs, 12 sit ups).

    6 rounds + 5 hspu.

    very hard on the hspu. had to kip most of them. doubles and singles after round one.

    ReplyDelete
  20. late may part 2:

    used 25lb plates.

    1 rd plus 11 HSPU.

    spent the whole time doing the HSPU's. Probably should have done regular HSPU's.

    HSPU's have remained a weakness I just can't shake.

    ReplyDelete
  21. Pt 1.
    All WB unbroken, 2 rounds pull-ups unbroken then 21/4/3/2 anf 21/3/3/3. I felt like 5 kinds of crap during this, not sure why. Tured?

    Pt 2. (60 or less minutes later)
    2 rounds + 5 HSPU. Goal was 3 rounds but what do you do. HSPU felt like max effort. Swings unbroken.

    Rest day tomorrow!

    Part 1:
    Holy hell, that sucked.

    Part 2:
    4 Rounds.

    Notes:

    Part 1 was brutal as wall ball is a big weakness. Definitely a mental toughness workout.

    Part 2 went pretty well. I actually got the first set of HSPUs unbroken. From there on out it was sets of 4, then 2,2,2...

    800s
    2:38, 2:45, 2:50
    Was sticking to a pace for this. Aiming for 37-38 second 200m. First one probably could've gone 10 seconds faster going ALL out. The 2nd and 3rd were with everything I had. Feet burned badly.


    Left rotator cuff was very sore today (bench press?). I didn't want to push it with snatches, so I kept it simple and fast.

    2:00pm
    30 Doubleunders
    30 Burpees
    40 Doubleunders
    20 Burpees

    part 1: at high school track

    2:14 (I think a PR), 2:32, 2:41

    just tried to hang on the last 2 sets- 7 min rest never felt so short

    rest 3.5 hours

  38. 38/6'2"/205

    Warmup: 10 hour drive from Salt Lake

    5 min rest
    Part II: 3:20/3:09/3:00 - Incline @ 2

    I'm not happy with the times but I am happy I wrustled up the strength to get these done after such a long drive. Any other day I would have taken today off but I can't afford to take any days off just 2 weeks out. Back is still hurt but hanging in there.

  39. Late May
    Part 1
    A1. UB/UB/UB/28-12
    A2. 19/18/20/20 (max is 22 so I went for max effort each time)

    Part 2
    3 rds + 2HSPU - not rx'd.

    Notes: Pullups felt great and I am making progress. Never had rounds like this.

    I also dealt with a HUGE mental block with HSPUs today. I have always scaled them for workouts, but today I decided to do them head to floor with no plates or mats and I got them done. Ugly kips and a slow pace, but I will take it. A great way to end the weekend - thanks so much coach!

  40. I spent all day driving in the car, didn't have time to get to the WOD's today.

    ReplyDelete
  41. Haven't posted this week as I tapered a little bit to prepare for my gym's Affiliate Cup tryouts. We used the Military Online Qualifier WODs:

    1. 3 rnds of 7 FS @ 185 and 7 MU
    2. 5 rnds of 10 DL @ 225, 10 BJ to 24", and 10 TTB
    3. 150 DU, 30 thrusters @ 135, and 30 CTB PU

    Happy to say that I made the cut with a total time of 25:38. Pleased with my performance, especially with the FS and thrusters - those are weak moves for me - especially at those weights - but I felt pretty good throughout.

    Thanks again James for the tremendous programming - these events would have crushed me had I attempted them pre-OPT back in November.

  42. Part 1:

    I needed about 5-6 hours between workouts, I only had 60 minutes.

    ReplyDelete
  50. Late May

    Part 2: 3 rounds

    HSPU became the limiting factor on this. Swings and sit ups were unbroken and didnt seem so bad. Didnt do part one due to having a soccer game in the morning. I didnt know if it would be better to do both work outs after the game or not.

  51. Does anyone know exactly when "late may" is supposed to be peaking? My Regional is May 29-30 and I was going to pick back up w/ big dawg program but didn't know if it was to peak that weekend or the weekend before? Thanks

  53. Bania,

    I used to know a ton of dudes in the 82 (went through the first 3 phases of the SFQC in 02, but was too immature at the time to see it through).
    And was with 1/18 INF when I was deployed in 06-07, ETSd feb 08.

    And as Rory said, stay vigilant.

  54. A day behind due to scheduling issues as usual:

    A 21/19, 23/17, 18/12/10, 20/18/2 damn dropped it by accident i so wanted to do 20/20
    A2 26PR/4 23/7, 20/10, 13/7/10 ouch

    Ouch my forearms are fried and my damn lats!!

    Wall balls have come a long way it was a struggle for me to do 10 in a row - also am doing them with 16# because that is all i have so i am hoping it will pay off if they come up at regionals and it is a 14# ball

  55. Lisa M....I was wondering where you were???? Great job with the 16# ball!

    Part 1.
    A1. 35 wall ball UB (14# to 10 ft target)for first 2, 20 the third round, 30 the fourth
    A2. 12 pull ups UB (kipping) for all 4

    rest for 10 minutes approx
    part 2
    4 rounds, 12 HSPU
    sit ups all UB

    Part 2 (4 hours post)
    3rds + 6 HSPU

    Notes:
    I'm ok with this, wanted at least 3. HSPU were definitely limiting factor, everything else unbroken.

  61. late may day late (studying)

    part 1:
    A1: 30UB, 30UB, 30UB, 17-5-4-4
    A2: 12 UB pullups x4
    should have done ~15 PU.
    scaled WB to 30 reps (1st time using 10ft target, that sucked). good number. had to dig deep to keep it unbroken, and the last set the wheels fell off.

    part 2 (approx 20 min later):
    4 rounds exactly
    (HSPU in green/purple bands but on 45# plates)
    feel like i have no gas. poor eating and sleep lately due to exams (it's all coffee and late nights).. can't wait till it's over.

    ReplyDelete
  62. late may, a day behind:

    A1. 40 wall balls UB x 4
    A2. scaled to 20 chin-ups. 1st and 3d sets UB, others broken into 17-3 and 10-10.

    rested 9 hours (went to class)

    I did not do part II because my HSPU are not there yet -- to abmat are pretty easy but full-range gets me to failure pretty quickly. Instead I spent 45 mins doing negatives from plates, then head-to-floor singles, doubles, and one triple (a personal best).
