"Stach" as he's known @ OPT started with me in the summer of 2003 at 13 years of age. With no training previous and after 6 months with us he did a 6/12/20 leg day of 265# BS x 6, 10 sec rest, 65#/h x 12 lunges, 10 sec rest and 20 barbell jump squats with 65#; rest 3 min TIMES THREE...then some supp work after; then a 400# DL 2 weeks later. Here he is doing 370 with ease for 1 today with Mike "caring". Some are born to lift, god love 'em!

TRAINING:

5 sets:
8 Hang Power Clean - tough
Row 150 m @ 100%
rest 3 min
(intent is quick transition; high grunt effort on clean and high power output on row)
+
5 sets:
8 Dead Lift - 50% 1RM
Airdyne 30 sec @ 100%
rest 3 min
(intent is high grunt effort on DL, then high speed all out on bike)
+
3 sets:
20 back extensions
30 jump switch lunges
rest 1 min

  1. Hey coach,

    Is the goal of the 8 tough power cleans to do them unbroken or would you rather we go even heavier and have to break up sets?

    Thanks,
    Jeff

    Also, thanks again for the nutrition advice it's working out great.

    Thanks,

  3. @anon -
    + means do the first couplet for the 5 sets then do the second for 5 sets then do the third

    Coach -
    no GHD access tomorrow...45# good mornings as a sub? Other ideas?
    Thanks!

    + sign means rest as needed. I'll generally take whatever time I need to set up the next series couplet plus a couple of minutes. Generally workouts out to about 10-15 min between.

    Jeff:

    Unless coach says unbroken I would generally assume he's wanting us to go heavier. Probably whatever would mean a 1-2 second grip reset at the bottom.

    Disclaimer: Unit will treat the "+ sign" as a challenge to rest no longer than 0.25 seconds between couplets and Rory will do 300lbs for 8 reps unbroken. I will toss a banana peel underneath them both when they're doing the lunges.

    airdyne- i hate this thing

    did 1 set of back X and jump switch lunges, quads were locking up bigtime, i was done.
    after reading steve smiths post i have to start taking more time between sets, i normally take the prescribed rest for that previous mini wod, like today i took 3 min for the + sign, which wasnt enough

    B) 205# deadlift (all unbroken)
    airdyne cals: 19,18,18,20,21

    Got groggy in between efforts. Maybe from build up of lactate. Jump squats were tough since quads were roasted.

    Couplet: Had a quad strain for a while and my intention was to sub split lunge for a slow controlled squat. However cramped up pretty bad at end of first set in hammies. Game over.

    It's around 32'C and 98% humidity over here at the mo' so I'm getting thru a lot of water in these workouts. Good times though. Cheers Coach.
