  2. Happy BDay BrOPT!
    Coach, I'm looking for some guidance in modifying 2011. I'm much faster than I am strong and have been trying to focus on strength vs quickness. Example, I can power clean 255 but my front squat 1rm is only 245. For today would it be appropriate to squat clean ALL of the reps, or am I better off just doing something different altogether. Thanks in advance.

  3. Happy Birthday

    A1: 70,75,80,85,90kg (failed 2 on HPC and once on SC)
    A1: 20kg x 4 x 5

    B1: 65,70,75,77,80 x 3
    B2: 22,17+5,19+3,17+5,17+5

    Just didn't have a good chin up day, sore hands.
    Very happy with the weight on the A1, not happy with how it looked!

    Soren

    B2. 11Ub for all* done on split bars with palms facing. Much easier than straight bar but all I have. For past 4 weeks all pull-ups have been like this.

    A1. 205/225x4 sets
    A2. 50x3, 75x3, 90x3, 100x3, 105x3
    B1. 205x3 x 4 sets, 225x3
    B2. 3x22 UB, 2x22 broken:(

    Clean complex felt pretty good, but heavy - first time going heavy on cleans in awhile.

    Ring dips felt great, solid even at 100+ lbs.

    Push press felt okay, but not too much pop in the legs today.

    CTB's felt okay for first 2 sets, then got tough. Really hot and humid again today.

    I didn't warm up enough today, tweaked my shoulder a bit on the HPC so I took it easy on the CTB CU's.

    A1. HPC/HSC/Squat clean 1.1.1 x 5 / Rest 3 min
    A2. Weighted dips 2X10 4-5 x 5 / Rest 3 min
    B1. Push Press 2-3 X 5 / Rest 2 min
    B2. UB C2B 22 x 5 / Rest 2 min

    RESULTS

    A1. 135, 145, 135, 135, 135
    A2. 20# vest 4 x 5 / 1 x 4

    B1. 3 x 5 @ 135 / 2 x 4 @ 145
    B2. Broken mess, did jumping PU last set.

    Would benefit greatly from some form work on cleans. I believe I'm much stronger than I'm performing.

    Should have increased weight on ring dips.

    Push press was done at incorrect rep scheme. Silver lining is I probably could have pressed 155 or 165 at the correct scheme. Good to know.

    Pullups sucked. Hands were already hamburger from prior WODs this week.

    Thank-you to everyone for the birthday wishes. It is just another day doing what I do. Looking forward to next weekend to meet up with some dawgs again (and to meet some dawgs for the 1st time). Will definitely miss Geoff Aucoin screaming at me this year!

  21. Happy Birthday, Michael!

    2010

    FS X3, 155, 165, 175 (1RM is 195)

    Row/DUs: 1:27, 1:37 (DU issues!), 1:31, 1:34, 1:31

    Had to cut A and B to 4 sets apiece due to time

    A1. 155, 175, 185, 195
    A2. 53x4, 58x4, 63x4, 73x4
    B1. 155x3, 165x3, 175x3, 185x3
    B2. 16, 16, 16, 15

    Notes: Probably could've gone 10lbs heavier for clean complex if I had the time. Dips weren't too difficult, should've started heavier on them. Push press went up pretty easy even without a belt on (compare to struggling bad for 190x3 last week). CTB pullups are finally starting to click, managed to hit 11 BFK on second set and 12 BFK on third set. Still limited by grip when it comes to trying 20+ unb CTBs.

    Notes: Last set of dips felt something in the traps spasm and tighten up. Hurts pretty good and CTB was really tough. Did max rep CTB and finished with regular chins. Any reaching of the arm up or forward sends a shooting pain through neck and upper back. Not so happy right now.

    On B1, felt that I had 215 better, but I think I got the weight too much out in front of me on the drive up. I've noticed a big difference between small differences in form.

    Started too low on dips, but I wasn't sure where I stood.

    notes:
    **fckin stoked!!...I wanted this weight and I wasn't gonna quit...225 is a 10# PB on the squat clean and HPC...the fact that I hit it on the 6th set of a complex makes this PB even better.
    **biceps to rings and full lock-out on all...challenging over 100#
    ***shoulders cooked...210# would've been a better weight for last set

  45. Front squats - 225-275-315, all pretty easy, made big jumps purposfully.

  59. 2010:
    FS: 165, 185, 195x1

    Round 1: 47s on rower, 1:26 altogether
    Round 2: 47s on rower, 1:28
    Round 3: 49s on rower, 1:26

    DU's were all broken- tough combo. The row felt good, usually it's backwards.

    GHD UB

    Looking forward to meeting the Big Dawgs in Cali!

    My squat cleans need LOTS of work...
    I have a hard time doing ring dips to begin with, so I could not go more than 10 lbs. (better than I thought though!)

    A1 - 95-95-100-100-105 (weight used for all 3 lifts)
    A2 4@5# - 4@5#- 3@7.5#- 3@7.5#- 3@10#

    CTB not so great..inconsistent: tried some buttlerfly second/fourth set

    B1 - 3@95 - 3@ 100 - 3 @100- 3@ 105- 2@ 105
    B2 - 22 UB - 15/5/5/2 - 22UB - 12/8/2- 20/2

    Thanks :D
