    I took Saturday and Monday off and only did the thruster WOD on Sunday. I was due for a bit of extra rest and I felt great today.

  3. Part 1: 19:38
    - DUs = goat #3
    - garage = 23 degrees, balmy
    - was able to get all DLs w/o letting go of bar, a couple pauses, wasn't sure if that counts as UB or not
    - never done this many DUs in a workout before, we don't get along that well...yet...someday...soon

  5. 14:51 - broke a rope mid wod, i think it was frozen solid. 5 rounds of unbroken deads.. double unders were killing me.. must have failed 4 or 5 times per set aside from the first ub round.

    happy with this time. i didnt do this wod last time to compare but im only a month back into training. i broke deadlifts into sets of 5 from the start knowing that my DL #'s are weak right now. DU were sets of 25. DU felt great, deadlifts felt good too.
    PTS smokin time dawg.

  8. Part 1: 9:27

    focused on strict form and tempo on deads, and counting accuracy on du's.
    good test for the low back. recovery has included lots of tgu's, single leg deads, and reverse hypers.

    Working in reverse today.
    part 2: Cut out dips due to elbow pain. It bothered a little during push ups, but not enough to cut them out completely.
    7 rounds even

  12. OPT -

    I'm coming off a few minor injuries (tweaked my back 9 days ago, then tweaked something in my neck 7 days ago), took 4 days completely off. Have felt generally weak coming back, and now my legs are sore from some training over the past few days and that rarely happens. I have a comp on jan 15, 16 and am not sure if I should work through it and rest closer to comp day or rest more now. Any advice would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

  13. steve, post on current day, i can take that info and put it aside if i see it on current day as opposed to checking back over the other results, thx, i think that answers someone else's ? as well, pls post on current day, thx everyone

    nathan, rest up, if the overall bigger goal is further away than the Jan15/16 comp, rest is paramount...one can achieve long term with good rest and not going in 90% each time...a nice saying "on some days you might be last, but you'll be first when it counts!"

  14. I'm going to refer to this workout as Baked Lower Backribs with Forearm Foie Gras and a side of Smoked Triceps.

    Honestly Burpees, Pushups, and Ringdips in the same triplet is just cruel.

    12:58

    10 min rest

    221 reps

    I was taking a little extra time btw sets in part 1 because I knew I would be doing part 2 right after so I may have been able to go faster, but it still hurt. Triceps still quivering one hour after as I type this.

  15. Hey coach I had a question. When should we start with are training for sectionals? I have taken two weeks off from competition. I feel that your programing is great should I keep following yours if so where do i start? Lots of confusing about what and how I should program for myself.

    ReplyDelete
  16. This was brutal on a legendary scale...oof...shoulder issues warming up, and found out that pushups and burpees were agonizing. Rotator cuff issues or pinched nerve, who knows.

    Part 1:
    12:53

    10min rest

    Part 2:
    180 reps
    broke up the pushups and dips on all sets; kept freezing on pushups due to shoulder pain. Narrow grip pushups killed, to the point I dropped to the ground and had to reset my hands wider. Don't know what is wrong. Resting, icing, and ibuprofen-ing.

    Cool down included medicine ball TGU's and lots of stretching, hip savers, and foam roller.

  20. part 2
    207 reps
    last time 234
    I thought last time i did HONEST form but i was mistaken. I did all reps with chest touching ground, thighs just hovering above the ground, not bouncing off the ground. Form was like in the pic on post 12/11. HUGE difference. Felt in control entire wod but chest and shoulders were smoked. I found it easier to get my chest to touch the ground not my belly by turning my fingers 30 degrees in towards my chest. Also worked on not internally rotating excessively on ring dips, tryed to keep shoulders pulled back nice and tight.

    just had our reverse osmosis and UV light installed for our drinking water, pumped about that.

    my word is cohola
    im gonna go crack a pepsi cohola right now for my post wod meal..

  24. Part 1: 12:57

    Part 2: 255 good reps.

    Notes: buddy pointed out deadlift form issue. Way up was good, way down bent knees way too early. Caused the bar to be far away from shins and lower back cramped up severly on round 5 (6 min mark). Part 2 focused on chestt touchig not sternum. Arm feeling better, did 5 ctb chins today.

    It's amazing what 30 degrees cooler and 5000 feet higher elevation does to you. Felt like I had no pop today.

    165lb DL
    50 DU
    TRT: 8:19
    All DLs unbroken, touch and go!
    First three rounds of DU unbroken. Broke at 25 on round four, shoes untied on rounds five and six. Lost about 12 seconds. Broke at 25 & 38 at the last round.

  36. Part 1:
    13:24 at 135....I think my back was protesting DL's I woke up with an awful knot and it started to feel better after warming up but I didn't want to push it too much, so I took the DL's nice and slow. Du's were ok today got trough the first two unbroken then they got a little choppy.

    Part 2:
    162 Reps total
    Push-ups were kinda yucky today just felt like I had nothing for them and ring dips are just awful for me because even though I have been working mobility super hard I have problems with internal rotation from years of rotator cuff stuff during softball...so there a work in progress! Not too bad of a day for the first day back after a competition though!

    ReplyDelete
  37. did unbroken in the am instead of todays part 1.

    part 2 chest to deck only, no belly or legs-first time doing it this way...sucked a big one..felt like my chest and shoulders were going to explode after round 1

    9 +10 burpees + 1 pushup

    ReplyDelete
  38. P1: 11:47
    P2: 5.5 rounds, almost finished the ring dips on the last round to complete 6 but not quite! Triceps were dead today!

    notes: hamstrings are trashed
    pwo: salmon, blueberries, banana, apple, carrot and sweet potato purée.

  45. I'm almost ashamed to post these numbers, but I figure with almost three months away from OPT I've gotta start somewhere. Time to get some conditioning back after getting on a PL kick when I hurt my shoulder in October.

    Part 1: 6:31. Cut to 3 rounds in the interest of being able to walk tomorrow. DLs unbroken but DUs bad bad bad.

    Part 2: 90 reps, cut to 10 minutes. Pretty much hit muscle failure after the first set of ring dips, which made the next two rounds of burpees and pushups rough.

    ReplyDelete
  46. part 1: 11:47

    Tweaked my back in set 3 didn't really effect the rest of the workout but was real sore all day. Did part 2 didn't allow belly or legs to touch for the workout, everything strict, and basically fought the muscle failure the whole way.

    Part 2: 176 reps

    ReplyDelete
  47. Part 1: 15:45
    Part 2: 195 reps

    Triceps were smoked before I started part 2. So they're really hurtin now.

  48. Vic and I forgot that we started part one at 1 minute on the timer. So Part 1 time is actually 13:14. A 5 minute PR.

  50. Aaaand part 1:

    Scaled to 135# and 25 DU per round. First time doing DUs in a WOD for a while. I am paying for it today with some foot pain, but I wanted to get some in.

  51. part one: 8:30, was new PB

    Part two: 104 reps. got stuck on ring dips.

  52. Part 1- 14:07.
    Part 2- 194

    Day 2 of Metabolic typing diet baseline. Felt like crap on part 1 of the workout. Unsure if it is the diet change since it was lagging numbers that encouraged me to try it in the first place.

    ReplyDelete
  53. Part one from yesterday

    11:19 ouch christmas and all the time off I have taken really showed today. Oh well have to start somewhere.

    Part 2 maybe tomorrow. Shoulder is still screwed so don't know if pushups and ring dips are in the cards.
