Coach,
As a birthday gift, my wife made me an appointment at the ASU/NCRC Human Performance Lab. They test VO2 max on a treadmill or cycle, resting metabolic rate, bod-pod body fat test, and a complete physical fitness assessment. Are there any tests or numbers that you would like to see specifically?
Here is a link to the flyer:

Part 1: 13:46 - M-U's limiting factor, rings were @ 24" apart made transition very hard.
Part 2: GHD's Unbroken, DU's all broken, 11:25
Shoulders are smoked today - Very very happy with my DU's today, paired 30 together in one stretch, PR for me on that.
Part 1: Goal was just to complete this one as i just learned to do muscle ups/ kipping muscle ups last week. Plus 1.5 KBS are very dangerous for my knee so have to go slow right now at them.
COMPLETED!! in just under 20 minutes - happy that i was able to do all the muscle ups they were brutal especially after the KBS
Part 2: 7:16
my DUS sucked today for some reason and of course now i have a massive headache always get one after GHDs.
Got breakfast in bed this morning and some wonderful hand made gifts from my very precious children. It is a great day so far. Seriously looking forward to rest day tomorrow!!
Good luck today Big Dawgs: Joey, Nathan and Colin givem hell.
Part 1: 30 BS @ BWT(200) +1 mile run- 8.14
Part 2: 7.13.
The last 5 weeks I have had to take time off from any work where my wrist gets into ext or flexion with a splint to keep a very samll ligament time to heal. My training has been strength work and aerobic conditioning and very challenging mentally not being able to train with you. Along with a dream new box opening for CFP and BSc compression gear going ballistic and the regionals looming in 2 weeks the last couple of weeks have been a major stressor, which I am not used to at all.
Yesterday ,I finally got into a WOD with my team and the wrist felt OK, but has pulled up sore today, and I am resigned to the fact that I will be competing with pain.
Its great to be back here with the Dawgs.
FYI: If you have ordered some Body Science Targeted Compression gear please be patient as we have another order on the way from OZ which will arrive mid week and I will get it out next day.
If you have any concerns about recieving your gear before your regional and its next weekend don't hesite to contact me as I will fed ex it overnight.

Part 1-
13:23
rest 15 minutes
Part 2-
7:47
Had a hard time gettin my final 2 mu on the 1st round, I am not sure what that was all about. I just couldn't string together the double-unders together like usual.
Part 1
Did it modified due to shoulder tweak, did not want to injure it more.
10min 23 sec
Part two:
7min 23 sec
GHD`s are finally getting better, they do not hurt my back as much, need to get more explosive and fast. DU`s felt good, first two sets UB
Ended up 16th at the European Regionals. I was able to make all the cuts and do all the workouts, so i'm happy about that. The overhead carries in the 3rd workout really hurt me, I didn't think they would so i found a definite weakness. Anyways, thanks James for the physically and mentally challenging programming, I look forward to the improvements I will make in the future.
It was also good to meet Martin in person, he helped run an excellent event despite the weather. Thanks again, be back in a few weeks, and good luck to all the other big dawgs competing!
part 2 - 8:35
did knees to elbows on rings instead of ghd
Part 1
8:21
15 min rest.
Part 2
6:46
Notes:
Muscle were ok, but grip was tired from the swings. Swings were UB, 15/15, 10/10/10. Tried to slow my breathing down and that seemed to help but I think I could have hit 7:30 if I didn't break my KBS as much.
Very happy with part 2. GHDs felt explosive and fast, all unbroken (slow in middle sets). I usually get brutal headaches and nausea from the GHDs but today I tried to pick a spot on the wall in front of me and focus on that on the way up and it seemed to help a lot. Only first 50 DU were unbroken, but kept the speed high.
Overall, I had a good weekend. Happy with the way things are progressing.
Pt 1 in 12:25. Maintaining false grip is my biggest issue with MU's, and the KBS fried the grip. Not happy with the time at all but I only broke the swings at the halfway point of round 2, I was barely hanging on by rep 30 of round 3. If I could get 7 MU's straight it would do lots for my confidence there. I didn't miss any so the pacing was okay, but maybe a little on the safe side.
15+ minutes rest.
Pt 2. 6:30, only missed on the 48th rep of the LAST round, everything else unbroken. Felt good here.
Part 1:
Did strict muscle up rows + small band ring dips for muscle ups (no muscle up yet.. I'm working on it)
11:03
swings 20/10 then 10/10/10 for remaining.
10 min rest (time crunch)
Part 2:
11:08
Double unders all broken. Couldn't get more than 20 at a time most attempts. Haven't been doing these in warmup recently and it shows.
Part 1 - 8:03
~10 min rest
Part 2 - 6:44
Part 1: 10:38
Rings in my garage are really low, could barely kip on the Muscle Ups. All KB Swings UB except last set.
Rest 3 hours
Part 2: 6:30
All unbroken except 4th set of DUs=35/15
Part 1
9:32
Muscle ups unbroken, but KBS were difficult today and had to break them up.
20 min rest
Part 2
5:52
GHD were fast and powerful and only had one trip in the very last set of double unders. Damn shoe came untied twice from rubbing on the pads of the GHD.
Some crazy times today on both parts!
23/149
Part 1:
6:53....first 7 MU unbroken then next two rounds all singles. all 90 KBS unbroken, round 2 and 3 very painful. I was happy I was able to stay mentally strong and fight through it.
Part 2:
Second round of 50 DU's my rope broke and I don't have a back up. Sort of frustrating since I was flying but not a WOD I really need so I think I will live
26/m/145
part 1:9:07
rested 2:30hrs
part 2: 9:57(doubles unders are getting better but still suck)
Part 1: 11:00 Mu's need some work, could do 2 then false grip goes to shat, and its all singles. 75# DB for swings, which also sucked!
Part 2: 8:03
part 1 - 8:28
My first 2 rounds were done in 5 mins and then muscle ups got hard. I couldn't hold on! Unforunatley I am not yet a "robot gorilla" like Rory
Part 2 - 6:56
Unbroken untill second last round of double unders and I had quite a few trip ups in the last 2 rounds. No stopping just trip ups, forearms were screaming!
Part 1:
Still need to get a muscle up, so spend some time practicing them -had a few attempts that were really close, but still no Mu:( Also did 3 sets of 30 unbroken 1.5pd KBS in between attempts.
Part 2:
8:30
Barbie-lee broke - had to use a reg rope.
THEN...decided to make one final attempt for a muscle up. Told myself I could buy a new pair of jeans if I got one - and I did! It was ugly and I had to wrestle myself up one arm at a time, but it was a muscle up. Then I did one more! Now, my next challenge is to find a pair of jeans that my quads will fit into!
Part 1:
8:57...all MUs full ROM. Only 1st round unbroken. MUs and KBS got surprisingly hard...fast. Was down to triples and doubles on MUs by second round.
25-30 min rest
Part 2:
6:26...all sets unbroken except third set of DUs where I missed once after 1st skip (1/49)...lol! GHDs felt strong today.

Good luck Joey in the future, and I'm sure the rest of the Dawgs who didn't make it this year will have come back stronger and more skillful next year!

Part 1.
7:35
This crushed me, had lactic burn similar to Fran.
Part 2.
9:30
I waited about 30 minutes after part 1. I could have used more rest but needed to get it done at lunch time. DU's felt good.
late may
part 1: 9:02
part 2: 7:46
Did Saturday's row and the MU/KBS WOD on Monday to make up for Sunday off.
Row
/500m 2:19/2:11/2:05/2:08/2:07
watts 128/153/176/165/170
2500m took 10:53 Don't know how else to explain it...felt like I was 'fighting' to find some kind of rhythum with every 500m, but it never materialized for any of them. Probably shouldn't have turned it into a 'fight'.
45 min rest
MU/KBS
Well this was humbling, but good for me to do. Took about 40 min. No, thats not a typo!!! When I compare to others I know it sucks, but for me to get 21 muscle ups in a WOD is a good thing...first 2 sets of KBS UB, last set 20/10. These went well because had so much damn rest with the MUs!
Didn't feel like it but with Brett's encouragement did the two WODs and I'm glad I did.
Part 1: 13:49
Was a bit too conservative on the swings and muscle ups.
Part 1: 7:58 (didn't have any rings or 32 kg KB, had to to bar-MU and 16 kg KB)
Short rest:
Part 2: 9:48 (only 20 DUs...)
Part 1: 8:00
1st rd UB. KBS destroyed grip after that.
Part 2: 5:56
2 trips on DU's otherwise UB. UB GHD's.
This is my first OPT.com workout. I have been looking for some change in my programming leading up to regionals.
Part 1: 7:58
Muscle ups were unbroken first round. Started breaking them up after that. I have a huge problem keeping a false grip on the turnout at the bottom. Any suggestions?
Part 2: 8:00
All GHD's unbroken. During 2nd round my rope broke so I had to stop and fix it. 3rd, 4th rounds unbroken.
Today's programming was fun. I needed a change. Definitely targetted my weaknesses. I am looking forward to following the program. I hope my weaknesses are continuously exposed.
Only able to fit part 2 in:
7.34
I am going to start following the program very strictly now. I was amazed at the progress of the athletes I was competing against this past weekend at regionals. This was my first wod since regionals and I sucked. Had trouble moving through the movements. But I am glad I started back today. I am going to stay about a week behind so I can plan accordingly.
Part 1: 8:43
Forearms were smoked.
Part 2: 10:43
Absolutely horrible. I could not get my double unders going to save my life. GHD's were unbroken but I felt like I had super heavy legs.
Very cool programming though, I am looking forward to getting better.
Part 1:
8:49, bar muscleups, 28kg KBS
