B 275,285,285
C1 3,3,1
C2 good
finding it hard to get full extension on rings, but still a big improvement.
coach whats the upcoming training schedule for this week?
Brian Dean said...
Can anyone tell me when the DL tempo 12X1 begins? Does it begin with the load on the floor? up for 1 sec, pause 2 at the top, explode down, pause at the bottom? Or, does it begin with the load at the thighs with a 1 sec down, 2 sec pause, explode up, and 1 second pause at the top? The second seems to make more sense but I just want to make sure.
Thanks
A. 66kg
B. 133kg
C1. 2,1,1
C2. Done
Tempo was off on the RHSPU but today was the first day I got one. The initial kick ups were ugly, as well as the actual hspu, but it got done.
this is nate.
video url for yesterday's test:
http://vimeo.com/18580364
Brian - 1 second down, 2 second pause, lift as fast as possible, 1 second pause. Repeat.

Here is the video for yesterdays tester. Usually posting a video is pretty easy, but for some reason this one fought me all the way. I'm not sure when I lost the end of the workout but it is gone, I only caught a few of the pistols in the second set of 30. This is my first attempt at using a video editor and I may have chopped it out by accident.
A. 175 for all
B. 385 for all
C. 2,3,2
C2. good
I did double overhand for the dead lifts i assume that was correct.

for some reason i almost met pukie every single round of kbs damn i think i ate to close to doing this wod it nearly killed me.
I still can't figure out why kbs do not hurt my shoulder yet i still cannot do pullups from full extension unless strict with no kip.
You know it took you a long time when you surpass the youtube video length limit.
A. 185

A. 85# - felt good
B. 185#, 135#, 135#
- I should have clarified on these before I did them, 80% of what? DL, Clean, or 80% of how I'm feeling today? - 185# felt good, then reset thinking % of clean not DL, WAY more explosive, still got some good work done

Video from yesterdays test:
http://www.vimeo.com/18596780
Video of 10 rep ring hspu:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WrMzs-gh87Q
Notes: Video of 10 ring HSPU was started late, I'm on my way down from my first rep at the beginning. It was the 3rd set of C1. Video of yesterdays test loaded funny on vimeo, can still see depth and things but hard to watch. Video wouldn't upload on youtube because it was over 15 minutes. Bicep very sore after the 40 CTB yesterday...slowed me down quite a bit.
PTS - I have the same problem you do except it's my left knee that is bad.
A: 175
B: 380 x 1 - felt pain in my hamstring so I called it quits on this.
C1*: 7,5,4
C2: Didn't do because of hamstring
* I'm really not sure why I am so week at this. HSPU are one of my strongest movements.
Never could get my video from yesterday to upload.
A: 45# Felt crazy light as the bar should but that is 60% for my little baby triceps.
B: 175,185,195...tempo was tricky for me to remember at first and I didn't realize until now that I NEVER use a clean grip when I DL.Back felt good though.
C: Tried ring HSPU, almost got one couldn't lock it out totally. So I did them on the parallettes with the green band attached to me, I always feel like I'm skydiving all riged up like that. The defecit really made a big difference I might try to do more like that to get better at my strict because continually kipping them will not help that....anyways got 5,7,3
D:Completed and really fun, wanted to do more!
A. Subbed 100lbs DBs, all complete
B. 405, 455, 475

Someone stole my stopwatch mid workout and it put a damper on the workout. When asking around if someone picked it up, I was hoping to see it hanging out of their pocket. Wow, that got under my skin today. Oh well, I'll let karma do it's thing.
Unbroken 2.0

Part 2: (cut to 15 min)
Subbed 7.5 min on rower & 7.5 min on airdyne
Notes: had a hell of time warming up tonight. Felt gassed throughout wod. forgot rule about not resting bar on thighs during sq. cleans. Twice I rested it on my thighs on 4th rep. Don't know what I was thinking. Remembered I couldn't do that, yelled f&$k loudly and re-did reps (was alone in my buddy's gym...phew!) Sq. clean re-dos really took it out of me. Great wod. Harder than it looked.
A: 175
B: 385, felt good

C1 - Re-aggravated my shoulder on first set, shut it down

C1. no rings, off 10cm bumpers: 2, 2, 2
C2. hands at temples
everything felt good and light today except hspu, which are a focus of mine for improvement over the next few months

B; 255 for all sets. 80% perceived effort.
C1; sub'd weighted chins due to shoulder.
