For the Early May peeps.

B. GH Raises with Bands @ 10X0; 6-10 x 5; rest 120 sec

Get some elastic (tubing??) that will allow you to wrap it around the leg of the GHD below where your head would be at the bottom. Also, wrap the elastic around your neck. Hold it in place with your hands...if needed. Focus on the raising portion...make it fast, be aggressive. Try not to choke yourself!

Warning: The tension of the elastic has to be low because if it is not you will either not be able to complete one repetition or on the lowering portion the elastic will throw you across the room out of the GHD!

Late May:

I did Push Jerk today because of my left hip and I messed up my push press, thought we had to do 6 sets so I did not raise weight high enough. Lesson in paying attention today :)

A1) 65-75-90-100-110-120 all x 3
A2) 6-6-6-6-5-6 all with legs straight and above hips

B1) 65-75-85-95 all x 6
B2) all sets UB

C) 10lbs db all sets x 10

Notes: Push jerk felt really good, I like them a lot and could have gone a bit heavier.
Push press was good with tempo.
T2B all felt good

Heavy Evy said...

Any dawgs training in Drumheller? Going there for work on Wed, and Thursday. Wondering where I could get the wods in.

A2. 3/5/4/4/4/4
B1. 155(6)/175(5)/190(5)/200(4)

Notes: Played with grip on L-pulls, but felt good. T2B grip gave out before hips/abs.

L shoulder is really sore from Sunday. external rotation hurt quite a bit today and I finally called it good. Will ice and massage and hopefully it will calm down. Oh and 245 is a PR for 3 on the SJ.

DeeJay said...

Rory, you are a beast...

Unknown said...

Just wondering how many of you are following this site for your own personal reasons rather than competing in the games. I love the approach coach takes and know he is so educated in the field of exercise science. Just curious who else follows for their own personal health and challenges.

Heavy Evy said...

Getting a bunch of different vids for the external rotation, is it when you lay on your side on an incline bench, then with a straight arm go from 12 to 3? Trying to remember how they were done last time.
Thanks

Geoff Aucoin said...

Yowza, what a marathon. Fun WOD with the Wild Stallions, DJ and Mike.

A1.176,186,191,196,201-could do more here.
A2.4,3,2,2,3,3. That's not a typo.
B1.132,142,152,162x4
B2.Never came off the bar once, just lost my kip on sets 1,3,4.
C. 22.5 for all, started too heavy and only got 6 reps on 3rd set. Left arm felt much weaker.

First FULL as rx'd Big Dawg's WOD in a while. I started 4 weeks of vacation today so the plan is to train my ass off and get plenty of rest until the big day. That big day is actually the birth of our SECOND CHILD, which is around the 1st week of May. Gulp. Then the hard finish to the Regionals!

Number2 said...

Hey Dawgs,

If you do not own your box (and are not based out of OPT), do you ever run into problems doing this programming rather than your gym's programming?

I'm at a CrossFit box where the owner frowns on people doing anything other than the owner's program. I can't wait to jump in here, but I'd hate to lose my local community.

I would appreciate any tips, or links to posts on this topic from the archives!

DeeJay said...

A1. 198/218/242/252/262(2)
A2. 4/4/4/2/2
only 5 sets...
B1. 176/186(4)x3
B2. UB x 4
C. 20(10)/15(9)/15(8) - this is a pretty glaring weakness

PTS said...

A1. 165,175,185,195,205,210x2 - these felt good today

A2. 6,6,6,4,3,6 (forget to do supine until last set.)

B1. 135,145,155,165
B2. 15,15, 13/2, 11,4

C. used a 15lb barbell 12 reps per arm.

pressing movements felt good today.

B2. unbroken
C. 20lbs. x 12 as instructed

started a little low on the jerks. haven't done sets of 3 in forever and had no idea how the pull ups would effect them. just lost concentration on the miss at 215.

Brent Maier said...

38/6'2"/198 - Early May

A PS: 50/70/72.5/75/77.5/80/70kg (176#) - All 3's... Backed down on the last set because started to feel back. Last set was full squat catches.
B GHRaises: 5/8/10/12/15# - All sets of 10 with dumbell held at sternum.
C Max Vert: Not sure if we were supposed to bring our knees up or not. I didn't but has anyone seen "White men can't jump?"

Notes: Spent a few minutes trying to rig up a band system but was either going to put an eye out or kill someone so I opted for increasing weight on the DB's.

Chad Hall said...

Late May

A1: 185, 205, 225, 235, failed on first attempt at 240 then shut it down
A2: 7, 6, 6, 6, 5, X

B1: 155, 165, 185, 195(4)
B2: UB, UB, 12-3, 10-5

C: ran out of time.

Notes:
Split jerks started out feeling heavy but had a decent warm up and felt ok. Hip drive was good but I still need to get under the bar deeper and faster. Happy with 235x3 though.

L-pullups were tough to maintain that tempo.

Push press was a little slow through the hips but were decent. Tougher than I thought to hold for 2 seconds at the top.

Toes to bar - grip always failed first.

I'll do part C tomorrow.

Overall I'm ok with this workout as yesterday was a LOOONG day and not feeling great today.

Paul Klein said...

315 x 3!!!! I think Rory may be a superhero.


A1. 185, 200, 215, 225, 230, 235x2
A2. 9, 9, 6, 6, 6, 5
B1. 145, 155, 165x4, 165x5
B2. all unbroken
C. 15lbs 12/12/10

I blew my wad on the split jerks and had absolutely nothing left for the push press, especially with the 2 second pause in the rack.

shut 'er down after last set of split jerks...bicep muscles haven't been right since db complex...pretty serious pain after any pulling or overhead stuff...probably should've stopped after first couple of sets, but let pride get the better of me...jerks felt weak as f**k also...might take tomorrow off...

Dr Lisa said...

Managed to get this one in sort of with crap equipement at little local resort gym

A1: 95/110/115/120/120
A2: 4/5/4/5/5
time constraints only allowed for 5 sets
B1: 75/85/95/105 f on 4th rep
B2: UB except last set 11/4
no time for C

Put a rib out on first set of spit jerks really wishing i was at home and could go get an adjustment and some massage!!! Can't breathe very well now. This whole week is a good lesson in how much nutrition and sleep affect performance and just overall feeling good. I can't wait to get home and return to normal life, but the golfing is phenomenal!! And my game has been really good so that is a plus.

b2. ub, ub, ub, 10+5 - felt very awkward today, couldn't get kip goin
c. did my own shoulder rehab stuff rx'd from physio

finally got to a physio about my shoulder yesterday... says i have some tendonosis going on. that said i still have some things to learn about training hard vs. training smart. today i bit off more than i could chew on jerk and press... problem was not getting the weight up the first time but getting it back to the rack position without a lot of pain discomfort. must take it "relatively" easy on shoulder for about 3 weeks.

Late May

A1: 185,195x5
A2: 8,7,7,7,7,4
B1: 155(5),175(5),185(4)x2
B2: only last set broken at 10
C: 20 (10)

Jerks and presses really hurt my wrists for some reason with this one. That has never happened before. I could have went heavier on both had it not been for that. L pull ups are getting better but toes to bar suck. I cant figure out how to kip them so they are incredibly slow.
