    But are there any plans for some DVDs of the level one cert, or possibly plans to come to Toronto for one?

    Thanks

  5. Sick for a few days and have to work all day today. Looking forward to getting back to work. Great job everyone! Rawr!

  6. 1: Did one banded MU and 2 progressions from the floor everytime. Really focused on working on the dip and trying to keep good positioning since thats the part that kills me. One of these days!!

    2:Did strict head to ground HSPU for the first 4mins. then kipped the rest. Super happy with how many strict I was able to do, usually it takes longer to recover between reps.

    3:L-pull ups are pretty hard this was my first time doing them I think we did about 6-7 rounds. GH raises are always amazingly fun though!

    4:200 Walking lunges wasn't as horrible as I thought, I think since I did that 400m lunges my view of them has become tainted. Worked on kissing the ground with my knees not kissing the ground like it's a lover I haven't seen in 6months!

  8. Left shoulder causing some pain while warming up. Ring dips especially. I have been trying to get away from internal rotation with these but always end up there as I transition in the muscle up. Added in some DB ext rotation to warm up.
    Muscle Ups ; easy and good technique work. Fourth set, stayed upright, shoulders back on the dip and pain subsided.

    HSPU to 3/4" below hands. This was challenging enough for me to just complete all reps.

    GH raises & L Pull ups nice and controlled. Walked between spots. 6 or 7 rotations.

    200 lunges, tedious and very controlled.

    ReplyDelete
  9. MU: - all sets UB. Felt smooth and strong
    HSPU's - used parallets, head to ground, hands to shoulders. Felt strong today.
    GH/L Pull ups - 9 rds, walking b/t stations, easy pace
    Lunges - done, took my time, did 20-40 at a time.

    Felt good today, but I'll feel those lunges tomorrow - I hate lunges!

  24. Muscle ups were a total mess, first two sets unbroken. All the rest broken. I was lacking speed in the transition and I kept missing reps because of it.

    HSPU: 7 minutes completed with hands on 45lb plates and head to floor. Then 3 minutes with hands on 35lb plates and final 2 minutes just hands on the floor.

    GH / L-Pull Ups: Didn't count rounds but I kept a steady and deliberate pace without stopping.

    Walking Lunges: Complete

  37. This is Nate.

    Did Team OPT wod this morning...whoopin ass and taking names haha!

    This afternoon:
    A. first 5 sets no false grip kipping, last 3 sets strict with false grip. all sets unbroken.
    B. All ring HSPU with hands to shoulders. easy till the last couple minutes.
    C. First time with GH raises...hard haha. felt like pinpointed foam rolling on my quads with all my weight; made it hard to concentrate on the pain in my hamstrings and upper calves.
    D. Did the lunges in sets as I coached at our gym.

    Tomorrow, representing Team OPT with some of the AF crew in charlotte...should be fantastic again!

    ReplyDelete
  38. MU: failed 5th set, switched to 20 breaths. Had trouble slowing down my breathing

    HSPU: regular HSPU's. Thought it would be hard enough for me at this point but it was fairly easy

    GHDR/L-pullups: 6 rounds

    Lunges: 8:24

    ReplyDelete
  39. Muscle Ups:
    Sets 1-5: 1
    Set 6: 3

    Set 8: 3

    Worked on my grib with Coach Ant which paid off in the later sets. I PR'd with 3 consecutive mu's woohoo.

    HSPU: First 4 using 25lb bumper head through touching the ground. Then progressed removing the bumper to straight HSPU's. Finally switching to using the ab mat to finish.

    GH raises and L-pull: 7 rounds

    Good day of training. Nice work Jared on the MU's!!!

  40. 39/6'2"/198

    MUs: 3/3/3/2-1/2-1/2-1/2-1 w/turnout.
    HSPUs: 12" parallettes head to floor w/10# vest
    GHD/LPU: First 3 min w/ 20# vest, stripped it for the rest.
    Lunges: 8-9 min of slow and steady lovin.

    MUs were difficult tonight. A little weak in the shoulders tonight and it showed. I also felt uncoordinated with them so I'm going to tape some for review in the coming weeks.

  41. 0600
    FGB 415 (20 rep PR)


    1600
    MU unbroken

    HSPU on paralettes. Ears below knuckles. Faiiled rep 14 and 16. Did 13th minute to complete 24 reps.

    GHR/L pull up 5 rounds

    200 slow beautiful lunges with my knee brushing the floor with such delicacy that it made everyone present feel akward. 10:02

    ReplyDelete
  42. MU done - all kipping, turnout on first two reps, not on third for all sets
    HSPU on parallettes, hands to ears
    GHR/L pull - 8 mins because of the long walk between each, no issues
    Lunges done - legs hurt

    ReplyDelete
  43. Dec. 30 wod:

    BS: 245/255/265
    FS: 225x3x3
    OHS: 185/195/205

    Rest 30 min

    Part 2:

    WB/Chin wod: all sets UB

    Notes: interesting night. Had a horrible sleep and zilcho energy going into the gym. Front squats felt heavy. BS and OHS could've been heavier (shitty warmup, I'm guessin). Anyhow, went into part 2 feelin like a bag o' shite. Thought I'd get a good beat down. Instead, every set felt strong and the movements themselves felt as strong and as fluid as ever. Frickin beautiful!

    Gonna do some serious stretching tomorrow as I'm feelin a tweak in left hip flexor as well as the lower lumbar region.

  44. nate again.

    forgot to mention I kissed the ground so lightly on lunges that only my kneestache touched

    ReplyDelete
  45. MU...haven't a muscle up in about 6 months and they went a lot better than expected, all sets unbroken.

    HSPU...done on paralletes with the depth to an abmat on top of a 6" box, all reps completed.

    GH Raise/L-Pull...7 rounds kept messing with the GH setup because I couldn't seem to get it comfortable thought I had it in a good spot in warmup but was wrong.

    Lunges...200 lunges in a row is terrible by the way completed in 7:01

    ReplyDelete
  46. MUs: Went for 1 MU then 10 breaths, missed my first three, got my next three and missed the remaining. Need to get much more consistent on these.

    HSPU: went for 1 kipping from the ground every 60 secs, failed two reps on min 6 and min 7 so moved back to strict HSPU to 1 abmat every 30 seconds for remaining 5 mins.

    GH Raises + L PUs: went well, 6 rounds nice and steady

    Walking lunges: complete

    ReplyDelete
