  6. How many Calories on the Airdyne would be a good substitution for 250row? I want to give my back a break after rowing 3k the other day and Deads yesterday. Thanks.

    I thought sub 5 was easily do-able going into it. Felt descent about workout today, tried to row between 1:45-1:50 pace all three rounds, then did pullups and burpees unbroken. Pullups felt slow but burpees were quick. I would say transitions must have been slow for me.

    I've been reading what Joey W. has to say about going out hard and getting comfortable with uncomfortable. I tried this method before regionals and I think it helps a ton. You take yourself to a deep dark place right out of the gate, then fight through the pain the rest of the workout. I found that after the initial pain at about 5 minutes, the rest of your workout gets easier. Try it on a longer 20-25 minute WOD.

    Notes: Thought I would do much better than this. It hurt more than I thought it would. Had to breakup 2nd round of pullups, just didn't have it there. Frustrated!

    ReplyDelete
  11. 4:42

    Notes:
    Wanted sub 4:30. Everything UB, but could have been faster on the first round of burpees. Rows were decent, rowed about about 85-90% (~1:35/500M), didn't think it was worth going 100%, looking back I should have, upset about that.

    Felt tired during the whole thing, not gassed, but just tired, like there wasn't enough fuel in me.

    Hit a wall on the second set of 15 chin ups

    Not sure how much faster I could have gone. Rhythm was off on first set of pull-ups, but I don't think that cost me a lot of time. Like Chad said, I guess I could have gone a little bit closer to 100% on the row, but I don't know how much time that would have gotten me in a 250 and I think it would have cost me on the other movements.

    ReplyDelete
  14. 5:42.02, happy with this(for now). Not very good on the rower yet. 2nd set of PUs were broken. Rowing was my weak link.

    Good day for me. Thanks

    ReplyDelete
  15. 4:15

    Everything unbroken. Last set of pull-ups became tough around rep 8.

    Rows averaged around 1:35 split with damper at 5.

    Staying out of straps is a good idea Chris Duncan. Will try next time

  17. Hey Dawgs:

    Anyone know how to find the Big Dawgs I-Tune mix?

    ReplyDelete
  18. 4:58

    Like others, could have gone a bit faster on the rows (4-5s), but not sure what it would have done to the PU and burpees. Set a goal of sub 5 and hit it today...afterwards, things were a bit sketchy for a while.

    Coach, are we off this weekend? Just trying to plan workouts while I'm traveling.
    Thanks,
    Brandon

  19. Somebody stopped the timer on me, halfway through the workout - It was around 5 and a half, according to the clock. Feeling super strong overall, but especially in the rowing this morning

    Have an O-lift seminar on saturday, looking forward to working on, and improving my technique for my lifts!

    Pete! Great to see you are back on! - Look forward to visiting Ottawa to train with you two. Please tell the Ang hello for me!

    Didn't use straps on row and I think that was a bad idea. 2nd rnd of pullups were crap.

    ReplyDelete
  24. 4:32.

    completed 30 mins after getting out of bed from working night shift last night. did not warm up legs enough. lesson learned.

    nice time today C. Dunkin.

    Coach as far as the competition goes I have 12 hr work days that Fri, Sat, Sun. Will it be possible to complete the WODS on thursday or monday? If not when will the format be released? i.e., number of wods rest time btw etc.? Any info will be helpful. Thanks.

    ReplyDelete
  25. Does anyone know, for the meal that is 60minutes after the post WOD, are the pFc initials indicating a macro nutrient ratio of something specific like 1P:2F:0.5C as indicated by the size of the font? Or.....?

  27. 5:03

    2 things cost me sub 5. first, I broke 2nd set of cu at 10 for 3-4 secs. 2nd, the transition to the rower I jacked off the monitor to re-set each time...stupid.

    really felt yesterday's dl's in the lats not so much elsewhere.

  28. @ irvine-

    macro-nutrient. have a meal that includes protein/fat/carbs.

  29. I'm moving to Brooklyn in two weeks and would love to get together with other NYC area folks to do the first comp wods. I know BK said CF Performance will be hosting the second two, which is awesome. I also know that other boxes will have the same issue as CFP's with the FGB event. If you're in the area and planning on doing the WODs, possibly on that Sunday or Monday, please email me at kevinjrooney@gmail.com. Thanks!

    Felt great until the second set of pull-ups. I had to break them 3-4-4-4.

    - Bad idea to finish yesterday with a 1k row
    - No one else with me at the gym, wasted a lot of time reprogramming the rower each time i got on

    ReplyDelete
  34. 4:35 (sub 25cal airdyne for row)
    - I dared some of our members at the gym today to push themselves to failure. I told them it was ok if they DNF. So I did the same. The brain is funny. It sure doesn't like that approach. Last 15 calories and burpees were hard to shut of the mind.

    ReplyDelete

    Did this in globo, no rower at home. About 15 sec transition btw rower and pu bar.

    I am hosting FGB but will be hitting Big Dawg comp 1 at CFP at 7am on the 25th. You and any other athletes in the area are welcome to join . I have been advised that we will have 90 minutes to get it done. PERFECT.

    love to have ya here.

    Everything unbroken. Had to do this in a globo gym, so it was a walk between the pull up bar and the rower. That cost some time. Felt great.

    ReplyDelete
  38. 4:53

    Finally my butterfly pullups are coming around. I lost the tempo a few times which cost me seconds but I am reasonably happy with them.

    Burpees were slow and deliberate but they worried me the most.

    The rows seemed tough and I had little leg drive.

    The second set of pullups caught me up.

    ReplyDelete
  43. 5:37.

    Could've rowed harder I supposed and second set of chins were broken. Felt like I was pushing as hard as possible. Expected better time.

    Worked out in the pm for the first time in a while and last meal prior to WOD was at 3:30. WOD started at 4:50...

    Registered today for the Big Dawg comp!

    I had 4:30 in me but I was trying so hard to go as fast as possible on the pull ups that it was screwing up my Kip and I would have to come to a dead a hang and get started again.

    365,370,375,380,385,390,395,410(PR), 415F,395

  51. 5:11
    COHP pull-up`s and fully vertical and airborne for burpees.Row was strapped in.

    -I am kind of happy with this. Hoping for sub 5 but didn`t work.

    trying to gently up my stamina, so i finish with a light 20mins on the stairclimber.

  52. 4:45 hit my chin on pullup bar on second set of pulls. I came off the bar for a second to gather myself. i think my time would have been alot better. Next time

    Happy with unbroken sets, pushed about as hard as I could on the row but would have liked sub 430.

  54. 4:50

    All unbroken. Probably should have gone a bit quicker on the row, but felt good.

  55. 4:36

    Got terrible sleep last night for various reasons and I could definitely tell that I wasn't recovered from the deads. Was shooting for low 4's but the body wasn't having it.

    Both rounds of pullups unbroken (yay!) 2nd and 3rd rows atrocious and slow, and burpees always kill me. Short warmup, and a couple clients came in suuuper early so I was a little rushed.

    First time back at the OPT WODS since the move!

    I should have pushed it a lil harder on the rowing and my burpees need work. Pullups felt good and I really enjoyed this workout.

    Holy crap the smoke is thick as fog in edmonton! Put the governor on this workout...could even feel my lungs hurting at the moderate intensity. Breathing hard with heavy smoke in the air can cause some serious lung damage.

    Went all out from start to finish. Had to break up last set of pull-ups with super quick breaks. Did last set of burpees to failure but they were slow by the end.

    First balls out metcon in a long time and it showed. Took a while to recover fully but felt good afterwords.
