The cool idea behind the orthomitochondrial medicine is that it is using a souped up metabolic cart measuring a more functional terrain besides the basics above.
What comes from it is more knowledge in terms of making machines with the precise prescription based on the starting points; key things re-iterrated - one must diagnose first, i.e. assess, DO NOT guess!

I'm guessing this is 'Amanda?'

Sad story, give it all you got, Dawgs.
On a happier/more hopeful note; I'm off to the hospital with my wife.
Sub for DU's? Achilles tendon/knee still messed up.
I've spent the last 30 minutes or so looking through Amanda's blog. Tragic. RIP.
James, I'm reading Dr. Frank's book right now... I'm guessing that's the bio-energy test? I looked online and there is a testing site about 40 minutes away, after regionals I'm gonna go down there. I'll post my results. The O2/CO2 explanation really sold me on the idea.
I made up a part of the workout from 2 days ago:
1000m Row: 3:05.7 PR, ratio: .42
Rest 1 hour
100kg/5, 108kg/5, 108kg/5
Total in lbs: 3380
Thanks for the May 8-9 specific programming coach. I haven't done a suicide since HS football.
rainer, bike sprint @ 90% for 90 sec if you can
nathan, let me know all the scores you get as the test spits out some nice info i'd like to have as well, thx
"Amanda": Subbed 100 DU's for 400 meter rowing.
Scores are row time / total time.
1. 1:09/2:52
2. 1:23/3:27 (totally crashed on the rowing here, had way too high output).
3. 1:25/2:47
4. 1:24/2:45
5. 1:26/3:03 (Was reaaally stoked here, fran-feeling except that my stomache-muscles were all out).
I was really disappointed when I crashed in the second round but looking back at it I can tell that I learned a hell of a lot from that.
Even though I didn't do it as RX'd, this workout was rougher than I thought and it taught me a lot (about myself). Thanks.

One more thing...
I used to live in NorCal and now live in SoCal and I am sure some of you are trying to figure out what to do re: the change of Games venue. Please let me know if you have questions or I can help.
If you have tickets and can't change them, JetBlue and Southwest frequently have $39 flights several times a day from Oakland/San Fran to Long Beach (20 minutes or so from the site) or LAX (don't go here unless you have no other choices - traffic is miserable and the airport is a mess).
There are a ton of places to stay, but you want to make sure you are on the right side of traffic especially on Thursday, Friday or trying to get out Monday. I would suggest going west towards the beach towns or south towards Long Beach from the site. North and East gets you into some sketchy parts of LA.
Like I said, I have gotten so much from Coach's programming and trying to keep up just a bit with the Big Dawgs, if I can help, I would love to.

Sad to hear about Amanda.
A community like this is amazing I have read James', Robb W and other posts about what they and others did for her. Truely amazing. The numerous dedications and comments regarding Amanda are almost overwhelming, Wish I had the opportunity to meet in her in person.
Thanks James, and everyone else. I don't comment much here anymore. I ALWAYS make time to read the comments, I am proud to say that I am part of this community. (If only lurking sometimes)

Regarding Amanda, this is rather chilling in that I specifically remember cheering her on each and every time she passed as she ran up the hill at Aromas. The gun tattoos are unforgettable. I get a sick feeling reading the blog and seeing it come to a grim halt. I'm getting sensitive in my older age but let this be a reminder to everyone to sit back a few seconds and re-assess your priorities in life. My efforts this coming weekend will be in memory of Amanda.
On a lighter note, congratulations Geoff!
Did a little catch up today with weekend WODs plus factoring in current state of injuries, etc. so I didn't do 'Amanda', but will do it another day and think of her...I was shocked when I discovered the sad news about Amanda and couldn't help but think how it was just last July when I saw her at the Games. Rest in peace Amanda...wishing her family and friends comfort while they deal with their loss...
Competing next weekend:
Had to rush the workout due to travelling all day and a needed to spend time with my beautiful fianceé who said yes this friday.
A: Did three times 100 kg.
B: 5 rounds of 60 kg OHS and 25 DU. No Rest. time = 7:12.
no rest
C: 1200 m row, time = 3:59
PR on 1000 m row is 3:11 so was very satisfied with my 1200 m time.
Geoff...how wonderful for you, Amy, and Brogan!!!! A baby girl!!! CONGRATULATIONS! Enjoy these amazing first moments Geoff...take them in, let them overwhelm you and hold on to them forever...
Congrats Geoff!!
A lot of awesome times today for Amanda., nice job everyone!!
Congrats Geoff and Amy on the new addition to your family.
Congrats Geoff and Amy....Geoff, we'll excuse you from the WOD today :)

tragic to lose someone so young with so much life ahead of them. i was pretty bummed out about it all day. mr. corson is correct. never know when our number is up. i didn't know amanda but i'm pretty sure (something to do with the tattoos i think) she would want us all to grab life by the balls.

Round 2 was my only unbroken DU round and I paid the price ... HUGE exertion headache that incapacitated me on the floor during my first burpee for 30 seconds, it was brutal. Other than that I'm pretty happy with everything. The weekend off was a great call as I came back refreshed. Still have a slight chest cold but, a lot better than it would have been. Foot also feels a lot better today too.

Notes:I've been focusing on plan A being the push jerk that I didn't consider the plan B. I can't accept 220#... So I had to revisit my failure on the Push Jerks after seeing Units PJ scores tonight. Loaded up the bar, threw the closest thing I could grab, picked up the bar and push pressed it. Worked up to my failed 105# and was able to lock it out. Woot...

Late May:
I'm playing catch up so decided to skip the rest day and get this one done to put me back on schedule since this WOD was right up may alley. Maintained a comfortable pace throughout knowing that I had skipped a rest day. Goal was 2 sets of 50 UB DU's and UB burpees.
