@ Paul Klein
ReplyDeleteThat'd be legit. Definitely going to look into it. I'll keep you posted.
Coach or anyone-
ReplyDeleteRunning is a MAJOR weakness of mine. Before regionals I did about 2x 20-30 min light runs each week and found that it really helped my leg stamina and obviously my endurance running.
Should I add these onto this programming or are there any other suggestions on how to best improve leg stamina and running endurance on top of this program?
Thanks for the tips

Didn't have much juice today.
The B was interesting, I would advice to do a fair bit of practise with a bar

Martin A and myself, will carry something on a few of the sprints in PM-part. There will be a sandbag event at the Fit as fck-comp 25/9 in Denmark.

A. Once I loosened up, the cleans got better. Yesterday's halting snatch deads made me realise I wasn't keeping my shoulders slightly over the bar prior to the second pull. I assummed this applied to cleans as well and it felt like the pulls were stronger and faster.
B. 135 wasn't too bad but I went lighter after the first set to work perfect form.
C. Felt great!

3 sets of 4 squats as per yesterday. A bit lower weight than rxd.
A+B = awesome. C = heavy, might be due to much overhead work this weekend? I am weak at PJ compared to PP and SJ. Also messing with hand position. Greg told me to hold wider and keep elbows lower than I'm used to, this might also explain it.
Coach, second WOD is eeringly similar to announced WOD at the challenge were entering in Sept (amrap 10 mins of 5/5 KB snatch@32kg, 200m run with 40kg sandbag, 10 burpees). Should we use those movements instead of 400m run and pullups?

---> Movements felt very awkward at first. Practiced with PVC prior to movements.
C. 155/160/175/190/200
---> Started off too light, but recovered to hit a PR at the end. Might've had another 5 or 10 lbs in me...
AM
ReplyDeleteA - 72.5 kg
B - 20-40 kg
C - Up to 90 kg PP, fail PJ. 1.1.1 with 70 kg 2 sets, and 50 kg 2 sets
A = no probrem. B = poor balance in bottom. C = My shoulders and elbows started to ache, and everything collapsed in the end. This happens sometimes when I stretch and practice overhead a lot, which I have the last few days. Almost feels like a tennis-elbow. Any good rehab-excercises anyone?

I misread the way we were supposed to do part C. I built up to my fail on PP THEN started the 1.1.1x5 which SUCKED.
225-205-205-205-205 many fails throughout on the Power Jerk. Flexibility limits this movement.
part 2:
ReplyDeletedid 3 rounds as rxd first with run times: 1:13, 1:17, 1:22
then with same rest time
10 burpees, 5/5 KB snatches@32kg, 200m sandbag run@42kg: 2:42 (1:39 "run"), 2:37 (1:33)
Crushed. Stoked about these cycles. If I don't die from them (totally possible option) it will be the best EVER.
Part I.
ReplyDeleteA. 135X2, 145X2, 150
B. 70,75,80,85,90
C. 145,155,165,175,190 (5# PR)
Cleans felt good - focusing on DL then explosion helped a lot (like halting snatch DL yesterday)
Jerk balance and Tall jerk helped a lot with form - like it a lot
psyched with PR, especially since my shoulders were tired.
Part II. (took 20 minute break then did part II because pm is booked)
1:28,1:27,1:25,1:25,1:23(last one 100%)
Had very little gas for this, so excited I kept it all sub-1:30. Tried to go hard while maintaining form. Took about 3-5 big breaths btw burpees and pull-ups, then right into the run.
A. Worked up to 185
ReplyDeleteB. All @ 95
C. 205, 215, 225, 235, 245, 255 (on last one did push press and push jerk, then wrists told me to fuck off, I think I had 10 more lbs in me.

ReplyDelete1: Fast / unbroken / 1:20 min
2: Kinda fast / unbroken / 1:29 min
3: Not fast / unbroken / 1:39 min
Last 2 rounds with 23 kg boxingbag for 200 m
4: Kinda slow / 10+10 / 1:20 min
5: Slow / 10+10 / 1:24 min
Ran a small hill, increasingly steeper, with turn-around at 200 m. Fastest time there is around 70 sek so the first round was spot on, but then it went downhill from there...not just at the turn-around.
Wanted to carry something (1 event in Fit as Fck-comp on 25th) and used my old boxingbag for the last 2 rounds. Forgot my KB at work so I just did more pull-ups.
Ring pull-ups made that part slow, gave myself a break in the end and skipped unbroken but that felt stupid afterwards. A couple of minutes rest would have fixed that.
A. 185

Forgot to write down WOD before I went to the gym. Thankfully I only screwed up A. Should have done all sets at 185#. Will do 2nd part in 5 hours. Drills in B were very helpful with C.
A - 135lbs for all, worked on speed of the bar for power cleans, and speed on the drop for mid-hang cleans
ReplyDeleteB - 45x2, 65x2, 95
balance was off for first couple, then realized i wasnt going wide enough. tall jerk was good, felt quick and solid.
C - worked up to 205. power jerk turned out to be the hard part for me. would have liked to have tried more but ran out of time.
had to skip last few work outs, wife was away and between work and kids could not get away. so did yesterday's today and might do part 2 of today's tonight and get back on schedule. not sure anyone cares, sorry...

Monday training, done on 8/23:
ReplyDeleteA. 155# x3
B. 81.5# (1,f,1,1,1); 87.5#x5; 93.5#x5.
C. 115# x3
D*. 165# x4
Notes: Ran out of time at noon session, so D was finished in the evening. B - found the timing at rep 4. 70% and 75% of 1RM felt easy by the end. D. On bottom of squat, I was using my right leg more than my left. This makes sense given my left knee issues (Osgood Slaughter's condition). I'd like to be aware of balance and try to load my legs evenly next time.

A. 85/85/95/95/100 - weight was ok, but could have been a little heavier. Worked well to loosen me up the rest of the way.
B: 95# - good weight here for me for form work. Took a few rounds to settle into the jerk balance.
C: 135/145/150/155/165 - very conservative about starting weight, but was unsure of my PP capacity (max SJ of 200). Could probably have managed close to 180 on PP at a guess. Shrug.

P.M (completed 4 hrs after a.m)
1:20,1:21,1:21,1:24,1:19
Done on treadmill since no pull up bar outside or near 400m track.
Recovery efforts were excellent as I felt primed for second workout.
michael, if you have done it at that intensity and it has helped it has nothing to do with your engine so keep up as is just do NOT go into anything that makes you feel like you need a PWO meal after...just means that you are improving skill of it which can help once you get the engine up to par...will work alongside this program for you specifically AM on rising...
ReplyDeletemartin, yes
ReplyDeleteHello all, have been following your blog for a while whilst struggling with some back problems that have made me unable to train. Recently I had an MRI done and the results showed a symmetrical bulge of the annulus at L3-L4, a minor annular teat at L4-L5, and a minor disc protrusion at L5-S1. Also There is some facet joint irritation in L5-S1. I was wondering if anyone on this blog has had problems with there back similar to this or knows what can be done about them. I'm hoping to be able to train again at some point in my life so any suggestions are welcome.

1:41/1:44/Missed timer button/1:58/1:51
Cleans felt strong and smooth.
Jerk balance and tall Split jerk were good practice.
PP/PJ/SJ felt better then they have recently - maybe the practice?!
Runs felt hard after burpees and pull ups. All burpees were quick and pull ups UB. 4th run was the worst, last one I sucked it up a bit and had someone run it with me.
Gotta take it easy tonight, very physical day. Biked back and forth from the gym x 2, cut the grass, chores etc...
PM - subbed 500m row for run since I didn't have a pull up bar by a 400m track.
ReplyDelete1:41/1:48/1:53/1:50/1:54
pretty unhappy with my numbers, my legs just felt like lead today on the rows. Burpees felt ok and pull ups were all unbroken.
Part 2:
ReplyDeleteAll Burpees were fast, all pullups unbroken. Run done with a 200m turn around and up hill on the way back. Quite difficult. Only did 3 sets because of hand tears:

@ Micheal, I am right where you are with the running. Even at my fittest, running is a massive chore. Let me know if you find anything out that works.
ReplyDeletePart 2. 1:30, 1:36, 1:42 and done.
Rested 5 mins and ran just 400 @ 1:23 & 1:22.
Just like the ugliest child in the world is beautiful to it's mother, this workout was beautiful to me. Very happy.
No part 1 for me as i did clean work yesterday. Snatch work today for me 8x1 hang squat snatch PRd at 90# then 8x1 squat snatch PRd at 100# with PERFECT technique. So as frustrating as my oly training has been i am seeing significant improvement in technique now i just need to build my strength back up and still need to improve speed under bar.
ReplyDeleteDid part two about 1.5 hours later
did first 4 sets of pullups all UB which is HUGE for me as i have not been doing much of these and 20 is close to my AMRAP best so wooo hooo quite happy with that. Last set was 14/6
Kept all 400m under 1:39 had to bail on the last run as i was feeling a tug in my calf and not willing to risk injury at this point.
Almost saw pukie after round 3 but held it together. WOW my metcon sucks right now!

200m turn around... first 200 uphill and into the wind gave an added training bonus, felt OK... tried to keep it at 90% and felt better as I went... probably didn't warmup very well...

12/8 on pull-ups in rounds 4 and 5
No rest between workouts. Had to squeeze them in; I I moved into a new place. Bad sleep last night but didn't feel it too badly. Was I right in assuming that the 400m runs were to be done immediately after the pull-ups were done? Because that "90%" was definitely not my normal 90...
AM...
ReplyDeleteA: 150 all sets
This felt fine and light. Shot some video and watched in slow-mo. Looks good.
B: 65-75
Kept these very light and worked for fast feet and a solid landing.
C: 155-165-170-175 (F on the PP at 175)
Video-http://vimeo.com/14402969
PM...
done at home. Got 3 sets in and it got dangerous fast with lightening.
1:20-1:24-:122
First part at 5:30 AM before work. Took a short nap after work and did P.M.
ReplyDeleteBurpees: All fast and unbroken.
Chin ups: All unbroken except for last set, 16-4.
Run: 1:33, 1:36, 1:50, 1:47, 1:51
Notes: Chins done on a thick pipe underneath bleachers. Couldn't wrap thumb around so grip was interesting. Burpees + Chins ranged from 40 - 75 secs.
1:19/1:21/1:23/1:20/1:19
ReplyDeleteNot sure how accurate those times are because I used my GPS watch for distance and had to do a turn around at 200 meters.
All Burpees fast
All Pull-Ups unbroken (first 20 butterfly and then kipped the rest)
Not having hit the metcons much lately I tried reminding myself before each run to expect the hurt and discomfort that would surely com and to embrace the pain and hurt during the run as the objective. I challenged myself to expect and welcome that feeling instead of being surprised by it and letting the quitting part of the mind take over.
Now the physical part is a whole other ball game right now. I'm one sore dawg!

C: 185, 205, 220, 230 (only push press), 230 (all failed)
Notes:
"A" was fine. Felt good. Easy.
Really enjoyed B, especially the tall split jerks. Kept it light and hit it each time. The JB felt kinda awkward though.
230 is my current PP PR so happy to get that but disappointed didn't hit the jerks, just felt heavy to dip and drive.

DNF round 5. Attempted 20 UB 4 separate times, got 16, 13, 13, 10. Grip was just smoked. By the time the row came I was about 10 minutes into round 5 so pushed hard, was pretty pissed. Burpees progressively slowed but quick for the most part.
Gassed hard after, starting to feel better now. Happy tomorrow is a rest day.

Cleans felt great, jerk balance/tall jerk was interesting. Really felt the drop under the bar I find that with jerks i drop my chest/elbows in the dip and it causes the bar to almost scrape down a bit on my chest causing serious redness/pain.. i need to fix that. it limits me and gets in my head.
Part 2 (1.5 hrs later)
Scaled to 13 UB pullups (probably could have done 15ish)
Sub 400m row for 1st 3 because of hip flexor injury, and last 2 rower was in use so did 2min on the airdyne.

burpees felt really good, chins good, but I felt gassed on the row. I think it was the combo of it preceded by the burpees and chins. Does anyone else feel like their row capacity fades if not rowing frequently?

Guy-
ReplyDeleteFor starters: age, current symptoms (ie leg pain, numbness etc.), incident and how long ago. Movements that aggravate your symptoms. I don’t know how in-depth you want to go with this but this is what I do for a living so you let me know.
Took an extra day off due to feeling a bit under the weather yesterday.
ReplyDeleteTried coming back today and doing yesterdays workout and re-injured my hip flexor at the bottom of the second snatch. After that couldn't get to full rom without pain so scaled to power snatch.

Notes: AM - cleans were confident and solid. 4th and 5th set of B was my best. Was sticking the tall split jerks firmly. A 4# PR for push press at 159#. Was a well chosen set of weights today.
PM - Runs were 200m out and back. I took 20+ seconds between burpees and pullups on round 1&2. It's that unbroken qualifier that plays with my head, and I feel like I need to be recovered to go into the unbroken movement. I challenged myself to keep the transition to <10sec for Round 3 thru 5. My brain was protesting and panicking but once on the bar, I felt...okay! Found breath with the rhythm of the pullups quickly. This was a learning moment for me, a bit of a breakthrough.

Travelled up to Portland/Vancouver and stopped in to visit all my friends at CrossFit Portland and CrossFit Fort Vancouver.

C: 165# x3 sets (time constraint)
Notes:
A felt very sharp even with my legs tore up from the back squats with the 2 second pause in the hole.
B:Need more skill work in this area.
C: I worked up to a very difficult push press and then started the sets of 1.1.1. Working with heavy weights in this rep sequence is definitely the area I need to hit.
Besser, I'm 18, have been injured for about 8 months, no leg pain or referal down the leg, bending far forawrds aggrevates it and bending backwards feels like alot of pressure on my low back. Lots of cracking in my spine and hips, am currently trying some mackenzie exercises to see if they help. Sitting makes it feel the worst and lying down makes it feel better. Is best in the morning and worst at night.

90×1, 95×1, 100×1, 105×1, 110×1 (5lbs PR)
Very happy with a 5lbs PR after 20 reps! Need to focus on keeping the bar closer to my body once it passes the knees but today, I shut my mind off and just threw the bar up as aggressively as possible. It kinda worked. Failed the attempt at 115lbs but after watching the video, the bar was high enough, I just have to get faster diving under the bar.

In hotel gym, did horizontal bar row with feet elevated instead of pullups, Treadmill refused to go faster than 6min/mile pace, so runs were 1:30's for all.
