James - Question: What's the impact of reversing the 2 WOD on days doing double? Due to equipment/gym availability, I reversed the order of Monday's WOD and will have to do so again for Tuesday. AM WOD is at lunch, PM WOD is at 6PM.
Looking for advice on tightening up my diet. My normal daily routine is the following:
Breakfast: 2 eggs, handful of raisins, glass of milk.
Lunch: 2 eggs, 1 serving of organic greek yogurt, 1 3ish oz pork chop, 2 100 calories pack of almonds and an apple.
Snack: Almonds/milk/raisins
Dinner: Chicken/grilled veggies
I have a protein shake with milk post WOD. Suggestions appreciated!
Angelo -
Give us an idea of what you mean by tightening up your diet. Are you trying to lean out? Feeling sluggish in workouts? Also give us an idea of your daily activities...I believe you said you kickbox some. This will help people give you some better advice.
Thanks,
Brandon
part 1
A. 70kg
B. 30kg, 30kg, 40kg, 40kg, 50kg
C. 80kg, 85kg, 87.5kg, 90kg
Felt much better than last week.
That video could quite possibility be the best video I've ever seen that explains my issues with snatching. I was power snatching the shot out of the weights the other day, but when it came to having to "transition" into the deep squat I lost the weight. I'll most definatley practice this.
A. 165# all sets
B. 85# all sets
C. 165/180/195/205
A. 75kg all sets
B. 40, 45, 45, 50, 50kg
C. 75, 85, 93, 95kg (1.1.F last set)
Last week's 95kg was the opposite; failed on PP and PJ but made SJ.
A:215
B:115/135/135/135/135
C:205/225/235/245(Failed PP)
A. 72,5 kg
B. 30 kg all sets
C. 70 - 72,5 - 77,5 - 80
A. 180lbs all sets, felt good.
B. 95lbs all sets
C. 205, 225, 235, 245(F,F,DNA)
Notes: Cleans felt really good. Part C felt good at 235, so instead of goin for 240, which is what I got last time, tried 245. Barely failed PP, then barely failed PJ, and had nothing in the tank left for SJ.
Brandon - Typically I get up at 5:30 to get the AM workouts in before work. I then go to work from 7:30-3:30 (teacher). Usually do PM right after work, sometimes nap. Other then that just lesson planning and reading mainly. I work in 20 minutes of kickboxing about everyother day, but VERY light. I guess leaning out would be nice, I'm really just looking for the best performance possible. Most wods feel pretty good, running usually feels bad but I'm working on that. However I figure if I eat better then I should perform better. Thanks :)
A all @ 70kg
B all @ 40kg

Part 1
A. 175x5
B. 135x5
C. 185/205/225/245(f,f,press out)
Should have done 235 on the last set of C. Worked on catching the bar in the same spot and riding it down per the video on the mid-hang cleans.

Angelo -
I'm certainly not an expert on this, but just looking at what you wrote, I have a couple thoughts that I have used with my clients.
First, ditch the dairy for a few weeks and see how your body responds. I used to eat a lot of dairy and when I cut it back, I did much better.
Second, it looks like you could use more veggies throughout the day and less fruit, esp. raisins if you would like to lean out. Along that line, depending on the type of workout, post-WOD carbs are really important (i.e., part 2 of todays). Not sure how much you are getting with just a protein shake unless it has pure glucose or dextrose in it.
Lastly, you might play with upping your protein intake a bit. Without knowing how big you are, my first guess is you are little low on the 1g/lb bodyweight suggestion. If your digestion is really good, you might be able to get away with a little less that 1g...
Hope this helps and that others can either concur or give you a bit of a different perspective.
Brandon
A. 180 lbs all sets
B. 95 lbs all sets
C. 185/195/215/225 Fail on PP and PJ
part two tonight
Part 1
A: 180#
B: 95, 95, 105, 105, 105
C: 135, 185, 205, 225 (F,F,F)
Notes:
Cleans felt alright, I have a contusion on my right quad which sucks because I keep knocking it on the way up with the bar.
Went up a little for part B, felt more solid.
Overhead work sucked today, felt like I had nothing upper body.
Contemplating whether or not to do part 2 later today. Feel pretty beat up.
Part 1.
A. 193 (275 max... was able to catch each mid hand snatch high and ride down)
B. 65/85/85/85/85 (went lighter as recommended and balance was better)
C. 185/205/215/*220
*very hard... almost failed the PP, when I caught the PJ my back went into low Thoracic extension, I tried to correct for the split but did the same thing. this tends to be my fault when receiving overhead and this includes snatching. I overextend at the lumbar/thoracic intersection. is this psoas tightness? any good mobilization/exercises i should be doing to correct this??
part 2, a little modified
2 sets rxd: 1:20, 1:20
3 sets 10 burpees, 5/5 kettlebells snatches@32kg, 200m run with 40kg sandbag: 2:24 (1:27 run), 2:14 (1:18 run), 2:12 (1:16 run)
would not have made 3rd set with unbroken pullups if I would have continued Rxd I think.
A. 158 all sets felt gd
B. 65, 75, 85, 95, 95
C. *this complex still bothers shlder from last Oct SLAP surgery* its more the negative bring the weight down than the positive. Went lighter on all sets
135, 145, 155, 165, 175
Hey Brandon,
Thanks for the advice! I’ve been actively trying to cut down my dairy, I used to drink almost a gomad just because I honestly like milk so much. I’ve cut it down a lot from where it was, and will continue to do so. I’m 5’9 and 180lbs (last time I weighed myself, think I’ve lost a little weight). I’m probably not getting right at 1g/1lb but close. The chicken I eat is usually bigger, probably 10oz and the yogurt has 22g of protein a serving. I’ll try getting more veggies but I’m not sure what the best way would be to do that, grill them the night before and bring them to school the next day is the first thing I’m going to try. Thanks for the advice!
Angelo
A. 160 pounds
B. 95
C. 165/175/185/190 (f push press - made pj and sj)
No time for a double today...part 2 right afterwards
1:29 (Row 400. Pull-ups broken at 14)
DNF
Got through 9 pulls the next round and called it. I was able to get 3 sets of 20 unbroken last week...when I broke at 14 the first round I knew it would be a bad day. Will live to fight another day...when I actually have some gas in the tank.
A) all at 130#
B) all at 75#
C) 145, 150, 155, 160
140#/5'9"
A. 121
B. 55, 77, 66, 77, 77
C. 88, 110, 132, 143 (fail on power jerk)
Cleans felt good, did squat mid-hang cleans on A. Technique much better on last 2 sets of B. Power jerk is really crap, but getting a bit better.
I am having trouble getting two a days in, but I made the attempt today. (I did PM first with modifications)
PM: 400m hill run (down 200 back up 200) 20 unanchored situps 20 UB DU
5 rounds
Had to break after 2nd round, because my daughter woke up. Forgot to restart clock
AM:
A. 205 all sets
B. 115 all sets
C. 225, 235, 245, 255-f(PJ,SJ-f)
Then:
5 sets UB Chinups 90sec rest b/t sets.
A 75 - easy
B 20x1, 30x1, 40x3
C 60-70-80-90 fail on SJ
PP easy, PJ easy until 90, SJ wobbly on all. Sucks, it should be easier. Skipping part 2, see below:
Trying to claw my way back. Unfortunately off to a bad start, week 1 down the drain due to illness. A cold with aching joints to a kinda-sinus-condition snotty and heavy headed. Thought I was 100% after a few days rest and mobilitysessions, but nearly fell off the treadmill yesterday when doing an obligatory stamina test (all firefighters must do this in Sweden). During 2010 I´ve done this as a warm-up to other training and now I didn´t recover for an hour after the test (which I passed). Each lost training day feels like crap, but today I only lost 0.5 day ;) Tomorrow´s another day.
Good work by all the dawgs, keep it up!
Part 1
A. 185# for all
B. 95 for all
C. 160, 170, 180, 190

A. 195
B. 145-165-185-195-215
C. 185-205-225-235
last week 215 on C. was difficult 20# pr today felt just as hard but got it.
A. 110,120,125x3
B. 65,70,75,80,85
C. 115,135,150,170
Amazingly my back healed quickly. I went ez today and everything felt good.
Part 1
A. 205 all sets- mostly power clean until last two sets did the mid hang into a squat. Pulling is my weakness not the squat
B. 95 form felt better
C. 195, 205, 215, 225
started with 185 last week and failed on 225 last week so I felt good about this.
Part 2
scaled to 20 chinups
1) 1:41/UB
2) 2:01/UB
3) 2:15/UB
4) 2:10/10,5,5
5) 2:11/15,5
Notes: Man did this kick my ass hard! Felt like I haven't run in ages and it used to be a strength of mine, not so much now. The pullups and burpess really took a lot out of me, sucking wind the whole time.
AM:
A.1x5@160
B.100-105-110-110-110
C.170-180-190-200(ended at the same weight as last week but went up a lot easier and felt more solid)
PM: about 7 hours after AM
200m down hill,200m up hill
1:26/PU unbroken
1:24/PU unbroken
1:27/PU unbroken
1:26/ripped hand on PU 12, stopped and ran
1:25/subbed 25 ring dips for pullups,broken 12+8+5
Pretty happy with the runs, not so happy with the hand
Part I (all weights in kilos)
A. 77x4,80x1
B. 30,35,39,41
C. 74,78,84,89 (196 - 5# PR)
Cleans felt ok - stuck at 70% from the beginning to see how it felt. Legs still tired from yesterday.
C felt great. PR'd and felt like I had more in me. I think the jerk technique work is really paying off.
Part II - same trouble as Paul - tough to get these in b/c work/baby make it tough.
W/ access only to bad treadmills with no ability to kip on the pull-up station, I am going to sub:
10 burpees
12-15 strict pull-ups
120 Double-unders
Suggestions on better substitutions given these limitations?
1. 2 POs. Clean -125lbs
2. JB+TJ -85lbs
3. PP+PJ+SJ -105 for all reps
part1:
A. 120

A.160
B.95
C.165,175,185,195(FSJ)

Round 4 and 5 moved hands along bar mid swing to get away from sweat, literally moving 3 feet along bar as reps went up .
Took time after burpees on set 3,4 to get em UB and on 5th set also waiting 25 seconds to start.
A - 190#
B - 75# for all sets
C - 165#, 185#, 205#, 225# (PP PR & the jerks weren't the prettiest form wise but I got them). Wrists took a beating on C

C. 155/175/195/205f
Did part 2 am, Part 1 pm:
Part 1:
A. 135 across
B: 95# across
C: 155/ended due to elbow pain
Part 2:
Cut to 3 rds:
1. 12-3/ 1:43.7 (too fast out the gate here)
2. 11-4/ 1:50.5
3. 8-4-3/ 1:54.6 - felt like I hit a wall here. Right elbow was pretty sore too.
The elbow issue cropped up the last few weeks. Some research indicates some golfer's elbow - seems to be under control with ice, ibu and a strap. Today's pain seems to really be in the bicep's tendon. Might have strained that this morning or yesterday evening. Hopefully ice and rest for a few days will get things back on the right track.
part 1:
A. 170
B. 65,85,95,95,95

Part 2:
All I can say is that it's done. The best parts: the burpees were all faster than last week, first 2 sets of pullups were unbroken. The rest were sectioned. The runs were probably a bit more consistent but a little slower than last week.
A. 170lbs across
B. 95lbs

Recovery did not happen between rounds 4 and 5. 3 minutes went by in a flash!
Heavy Evy,
Thanks for the comments on my snatch technique. I put the video up side by side with Greg E's snatch video. When I pull from the ground my back goes almost parallel to the floor with my knees locked out (like I am doing a good morning). Then I pull 100% with my back (just like you said). It is fascinating what happens when you see it frame by frame in quicktime. Watching Greg E, there is a part in the pull where the bar and his body are moving upwards at the exact same pace. It looks like he is almost pushing the weight up with his "benis". I have a lot of work to do!
A. All at 70kg
B. All at 40kg
C. 65, 70, 75, 80 (same as last week, feeling like I can go higher now)
Coach I was wondering if I could get your advice on an issue... I'm a cop and when I'm on night shift, I have trouble making time for double (just dont feel like working out after an 11 or 12 hour night shift and my gym isn't open at 4 am when I get off work - What is that?? haha)... Before you told me to just cut each workouts work load in half but with this lifting phase I was wondering if you'd rather me just do the lift workout and maybe do a bit of the metcon workout if I have time, or if I should just skip the metcon if I don't have enough time for both... Thanks a lot
Part 1
A: 150 for all
B: 75 for all
felt much better this time
C: 180, 185, 195 (pp pr), 200 (pr again)

5. 1:26
all cu unbroken. burpees to cu to run was not done for time style but I didn't take too long a blow.
I was dreading this for what it did to me last time and this had 5 more cu and shorter rest. No bad weekend activities and I actually got some good sleep lately...crazy how it helps. This was still very tough and I'm happy to complete it, for sure.
To echo others...thanks again to coach James for this programming and to special guest Greg E. I feel lucky and privileged to have access and a part in this. Thank you!
Part 2:
Burpees felt fast
All pullups unbroken, last 2rnds were real tough
Run times;
1:23, 1:28, 1:32, 1:36, 1:38
I felt a lot slower on runs than last time. But I also had 5 more pullups to do and :30 sec less rest.
Part 2:
1. UB, 1:30
2. UB, 1:47 (Tore palm)
3. 12, 1:50
4. 18, 1:50
5. 15, 1:50
Notes: All burpees fast and UB. Chin ups were fine until the middle of the 2nd set. Doing chin ups on a thick pipe underneath the bleachers...ripped at a weird spot in my palm pretty big. Tried 3rd set but just ripped it more. Switched to pull ups for 4th and 5th and went until I couldn't take the burning anymore. Doubt I would have gotten 25 UB all sets, but it was def. looking doable. Shower, new skin and hope it's healed by thursday...or time to tape it.
Kept it light tonight.

The wife and I signed our daughter up for gymnastics earlier this evening and I got a chance to play on the rings, ropes, bars and trampolines. The other parents were lokking at me like I was a freak going ape shit on all the equipment and climbing the ropes, while most were too fat to get out of the waiting room chairs. I can safely say my daughter was at home as well after spending a lot of time in my gym playing on most of the equipment there .
165x5

Felt a not good twinge in the rack position on the 3rd set and couldn't really even PP. Tried again but was still there so packed it in. Everything felt better from previous week but looking at some of the other weight percentages here, probably went too heavy again on B.

Pull ups felt pretty heavy from the start. Did first 3 sets straight butterfly then the last 2 were a mix of butterfly and kip but still unbroken so I was pleased
Runs felt awful, My times were a hair slower than last week so that's not encouraging but I got through it.

Snatch deadlifts felt fine, but starting to lose grip.
Snatches didn't feel as solid today as they did last week. Maybe because of trying to catch up and not getting the recommended rest b/t workouts.
Snatch pulls felt good. Grip also a little off.
Back squats felt good today too.
Didn't have time for the 5x800m rows, and may not have any more time this week for anything because of some home renovation projects. I'll see what I can do. I hate to miss things:(
