Short on time, so only 3 runs: 1:08, 1:10, 1:15
Off to celebrate my mother's 60th year birthday in another city. Hopefully I can get the OHSQ/RD in later tonight.

HSPU practice
Cleans felt off, bad form, but I necer squat cleaned 110 before so that´s a plus. Strengthwise I´m almost back. Shoulders still hurt tho, so I took it easy. Might do some work today and try to be on schedule the last week before comp: http://www.crossfitnordic.se/event/crossfit-sm-2010/

1:18, 1:28, 1:32
1:26, 1:41, 1:32
OHS: 91kg
Couplet: 7:26 with 42kg.
Overall a pretty disappointing day. The runs were outside on a track, pacing was tough, most of my running is on a mill and it shows.
The bright spot: Worked on Handstands at the track during the 10 minutes and got my first freestanding HSPU. Kicked up, held for about 5 seconds, down to forehead touch ground, up and held for another second or so. Very happy with that.

OHS 1 rep @ 145 could have gone heavier, but can't drop weights at globo
30/20/10 time: 4:45 at 85# (BW 170#). psyched with this.
@Rory Hanlin: I saw that picture where you are wearing the BSc Compression pants. How do you like them? Thanks!

First time posting since last BD comp. I've been working on some weaknesses with my coach Geoff Aucoin, namely, 3rd pull speed, pull-ups when gassed, quick power.
Back with the blog for this week and the comp on Sat, and then we'll see after that.

Great to be running outside on track today at Glenmore athletic park. Just me and my four kids. The second run was a race against my 10 yr old daughter at 250m and my four yr old boy at 125m. Happy to say I finished dead last in that heat.

Be back on full board in 2 weeks, miss these wods!
No time to do part 2 & 3 yesterday (got home too late) so did them today.
OHSQ: 85kg
couplet: 6:18 (38,5kg, BWT 76kg)
All out hard to do since I always die on ring dips after awhile... Doubles & singles in the end.

Missed a few days because i was at a conference in Phoenix.
Did second half as i am working on three hours sleep.
125# for OHS kept it relatively light not feeling very "olympic" today
10:54 @ 65#
UB rounds of 30 and 10 for OHS second round had brain fart and wrists hurt so went 11/9
Ring Dips were pathetic as always. down to singles pretty much for last half of the 20 and all of the 10. Wow out of shape
@NW
The jury is still out on the compression pants. I feel like they are most effective with respect to recovery over intense competition. I am not sure if they are worth the money though. I to hit more competitions with them.
Run Times
I ran on a course previously believed to be measured out to be 400m. After seeing my splits from today I checked the course distance on runningmap.com it appears that the distance is .03 miles longer. Times are still 20 sec slower than splits from previous WOD prior to regionals.
Run times all around 1:40-45
OHS Tough Single 185= Snatch 1RM
Couplet time 5:15
All OHS unbroken. Broke at 20/10 on first set of RD,10/10 second set and 6/10 on third.
Once again, coach, sorry for the late post.
Part one: Hit each one at 1:05
Part two:
OHS - 230#
- Felt heavier than it should have
Metcon - 3:19
- Used 100#
- BTW = 195#
- OHS unbroken
- Dips broken on round of 30 at 20reps and on round of 20 at 15 reps.
My .02 regarding the BSc compression gear:
I own the long pants, long sleeve top and the socks.
I've had them for a couple months now and these are my thoughts...
First of all, for activities like heavy squats, sprints, rows anything hard on the legs, the longs pants are really great. I wear them for a few hours afterwards to help with recovery and they fit the bill for that purpose. There have been days that I've been sore from the previous day's training and have just worn them to take the soreness and stiffness away. I have also worn them to bed a few times.
For general Crossfit style wods I'm not sure if there's much advantage to wearing them for a single wod, however for doubles, triples and competitions they'd be quite useful, again for recovery purposes.
I love the sleek feel of the pants and while it may not add an extra 10 pounds to my lifts, I appreciate the comfort.
A couple cons are when I hand washed them the first couple of times the garments bleed the black dye big time and it stained the shit out of my sink and shower as they dip dried and it was a bitch to clean.
Second, while the pants fit and look awesome, but theres a rubberized logo on the front right shin that makes cleans and deads a little awkward as the bar drags and catches across the logo and makes one side move unimpeded while the other side of the bar catches. Not a huge deal, but disrupts timing slightly and I'm still getting used to that feel. I genrally wear long sweats on those days now.
Third, and this is just my personal opinion because I train outside all year long, the garments don't really have a thermal effect (which they dont claim to, I know...) and having an extra layer doesn't really seem to help either.
I took a break from the training here for a few weeks and found that with a lower volume workload, I stopped wearing them as regularly as I did when I was banging out the daily WODs here. In just being back on for the past couple days, I can already tell I'll start wearing them a whole lot more ASAP.
I've never worn Skins, Under Armour or any other compression garment claiming to do what BSc says it does, but from my experience BSc has a really good prpoduct and I do recommend trying them out, although if I could do it again, I'd hold off buying the long shirt and wouldn't bother getting the socks as I never wear them, I'd just buy two pairs of longs.

aerobic:
1:15, 1:15, 1:17
only did one set. On a route that had multiple blind turns and a turn around. sub 1:10s on a track for sure.
OHS:
built to 140kg, PR. Descent was awkward, stand was easy.
Metcon: 4:45
Did the army pt test this morning 2 min of push ups and sit ups 2 mile run.

Right after worked up to 285 ohs
Then tried bwt for 15
235 failed on 15th rep
Yesterday’s at track:
Part 1: Rested b/n 3rd and 4th without HSPU:
66,66,66,66,67,67
Part 2: Worked on improving form for OHS. Sets of 2-3 at 135. No metcon.
a varitible cornucopia of wods from the wknd... hurt my back on Friday and tried 2 feel things out today after taking the weekend off...
400s- :64/ :63/ :63
(done on 160m indoor pentagon and knees and back had enough of the turns so called it here)
10min ring hspu practice
30/20/10 metcon- 3:19
Bench press at tempo- 275(3)/ 295(2)/ 325(1)
mixed grip chinups- 75(3)/ 95(3)/ 110(2)/ 110(2)
OHS- 185(1)- at 5211, back felt it so held off on heavier
ring strength series x2- 2 MU, 3 Bulgarian dips, 1 tuck planche pushup (fail), 1 hspu, 5sec L-sit, 2 back levers
congrats Nathan and ROBO on the OHS accomplishments... sweet PRs!...
as far as the bsc compression gear goes I've enjoyed the comfort and how I feel both during and after wods, both strength and metcon varieties... i've tried the skins, under armour, etc and I think that the bsc conforms to movements better... they are a snugger fit, but interestingly enough I've found them more comfortable as I usually don't like wearing tight things when wod-ing...
I haven't worn them in the cold yet (just strting 2 get cold here) or for long runs, etc...
I have noticed thy after heavy volume wods, I've had more 'pop' tge next day or two than usual... think they have been helping with recovery... as Dave alluded to...
just got the long top and in the two wods I've done in it... I've felt pretty gd... as with all things, you need to go with what works for and fits you best... wish I had a pair or two of these back when I was running college track... woul have been nice for the transition from field to the track to the weight room...
~gm2

subbed bar dips as I forgot my rings at home.
Timing was off because some numb-nuts was getting in the way of my rings dips to do some whacked out version of pulsing pullups.
Ended with 7:10 but it wasn't really accurate at all.
A. 115, 135(f) - moved up in weight too quickly.
B. 8:48 - 65lbs, scaled dips to bar dips at 15,10,5
both weaknesses, glad to work on them.
Couplet. OHS 50kg. 9:48. Subbed ring dips for push ups - my rings are in the tree :D
