  2. Coach or anyone else who can lend some advise,

    I'm looking to set up a home gym in my new house once we move in at the end of the month. I am looking to find a good set of bumper plates and barbell. I am also trying to figure out what the best pull up system would be to put up.
    If anyone has recommendations about where to buy (I live in Edmonton) or what kinds to buy, and any suggestions about the pull up bar, that'd help me out a lot.
    Thanks in advance

  3. I should probably know this but is there a difference between 3,3,3 and 3X3?

  5. @Kent-
    3x3 means 3 sets of 3 reps all at same weight; 3, 3, 3 means increase weight if able. As written for this workout, Coach wants you to build to a heavy triple for the last set.

  6. That was my guess but it was just that...a guess.

    Thanks Eric

  7. Jon - check out the stud pullup bar. It is actually linked through the OPT online store as well, or you could search for it. Really easy to install and rock solid, I've had mine in for about 2 years now and it's going strong. They even paid to get it re-powder coated when it started to strip unexpectedly.

    I know last set was supposed to be only tough set, but I wasn't really sure what I could do for 3. Might have been able to get 125, my speed from the bottom felt awesome today, didn't take 10years to stand anything up!

    B. 3x3@ 80lbs.
    Got worried when this felt heavy at first, but I am SO happy with my speed under the bar and having a solid reciveing postion at the bottom, sometimes my left arm tends to be a little slow but not today!

    C1. 10x3-C2B unbroken-cut it in half since it was supposed to be fast and not fatigue inducing, 20 would have smoked my grip and shoulders.

    C2. 8-6-8 down to 2 blue pads, 3bluepads=1ab mat, so I am inching down there!I think it has helped working kipping, paralettes and on the ab mat with these all three kind of work different portions. More than 1HSPU to the ground soon, I can feel it!!

  14. Dawgs!

    I hope everyone is happy and well . I see all the usual suspects are crushing it and some killer new crew going at it.
    I personally have been getting coached by James for the last 3 months and cannot speak highly enough of the experience.

    FINALLY!! We are ready to roll with our BSc (Body Science Compression) affiliate program and I would like to open it up to the Dawgs first.
    This is open to USA based boxes at this stage. Info is below.

    http://performance.sitesasrx.net/page/direct.php?id=2481

    Please feel free to connect with me personally or George to assist you with joining us with any questions.

    # OPT assessment module at CFP this weekend with all our coaches attending....everyone is very excited to have James and Michael here.

    Kind Regards

  20. FS 112, 117,second
    Second set was rough. Third set was miserable. Elbows dropped and several discs may be herniated but it went up. 4kg PR.

    HS 63, 68, 68.
    Steady in the bottom but heels would rise slightly when I came out of the bottom. Persistent problem. Working on it.

    Pull ups unbroken
    HSPU 10, 9, 9
    HSPU is a major weakness. Worked them yesterday on parallettes.

    Finished with some ab work and lots of foam rolling.

  21. A: 275#, 315#, 340# 15# PR from 11/27/10

    B: 175# -2, 155# x 2. For some reason I took 80% of my one rep max snatch for the first set. This was way too heavy for me to hang snatch three times. Had to drop down on the next two sets

    C1: all UB. Reps started to slow down a little at about 15 on the second and third set.

    C2: 29, 19, 13. Just couldn't lock out that 30th rep in the first set.

    First day back (not counting Sunday's comp) after 8 weeks of single-leg rehab work following surgery. Still going to be cautious with loading, but the leg feels stronger than pre-surgery. Bulgarian split squats are magic.

  38. I did a very long endurance metcon on Monday. Combined with the comp on Sunday I'm still pretty ragged out. Followed today's but at very light weight and cut the reps down on the gymnastics. I did get a gas mask so had to wear it on the pulls and hspu. Interesting, especially trying not to hit the cannister on the bar.

    ReplyDelete
  39. A. 240x3, 250x3, 260x3
    B. No proper barbell - practiced with broomstick
    C1. 20UB x 3
    C2. 13, 10, 10 - No kip, Full ROM

    Had to PC the weight for the FS because I'm at work and we don't have racks or proper weights. Using 1"bar and steel plates, not able to drop weight.

    Not able to snatch with 1" bar because collars are too narrow.

    CTB were tough, but doable.

    HSPU - felt great.

    Did pull ups on split bar so I tried to pull to a "bar" stopped at 18 and 12 when i felt I couldn't get to the imaginary bar anymore.

    Kept snatch light because I haven't done snatch in a long long time so treated it more as technique work.

    Front squats and Snatch felt good. Last set of FS was tough but not bad for how tight my lower back feels from Sunday. CTB PUs continue to be a battle for me and I have to re-kip between reps to get up there. When I string them together, I get too behind the bar by rep three. Then the HSPUs were just not happening, kip or no kip. A dent in my armor I will continue to work on.
