- Push ups and Chins fell apart on rounds 3,4,5. Felt pretty good other wise.
Todd (maybe others may be interested as well). I noticed yesterday while "nasty hill" running up the curling club hill across from Princess Island that somebody installed chin-up bars under the stairs (3 sets made of dowel rod) right near the point where the stairs goes over the asphalt walkway. It is not obvious but if you know to look for it you will find it. This could add some variety to your outdoor Thursday evening classes @ Crescent Heights.

Chad you look better in cartoon than you do in person!!! Nice calves!
I did yesterday WOD, mostly, today and posted it there. Owie.
Haha Geoff! Is that suppose to be a compliment?
Should be a wicked good time by the way!!

Barbara = FML
Those calves are legit brother, built those bad boys doing Donkey Calve raises with three large women on my back "Old School:!
Anyways I have been finished this workout for about 2hours, and I have not moved from my couch! I am serious and still seeing blurry spots!
I took it upone my self to attack Barabra as performed at my Gym to be legit and get on our Board.
Everything was the same, but the Push-ups were not Chest 2 Floor.

That was awful. First time doing barbara as rx'd. Last time had to do Jumping Chin ups b/c of shoulder injury.

Debated quiting after round 3 and 4. Felt like I got hit in the head with a sledge hammer afterwards.
Nice work Action.
Sorry for the late post but I've been trying to get back on track after the qualifiers in Albany. I also want to thank Josh for introducing me to OPTs programming and of course James himself. I would have been eaten alive this weekend if I continued to train from the main site wods in preparation for this event.
Wod #1: couldn't lock out the 3rd thruster rep in the 6th round and tried four more times to do so but ran out of time. Frustrated but my shoulders were dead.
Wod #2: 2k row. 7:27 I shattered my previous best time by over a minute and 20 secs. I placed the damper on 4 and kept a constant pace throughout the race.
Wod #3: I left it ALL out there. I made it all the way through to the round of 4 power cleans and finished 1/2 way through the ctb chins. I was cleaning something fierce and all my kbs were unbroken, but my chins were fractioned way too much despite a very strong start. I felt like I had a real chance to finish this one but was only held back by the ctb. The adrenaline was pumping so hard I didn't even realize until it was over that I ripped my hands bloody in 5 different places!
Experienced some highs and lows but was very happy with my performance and I look forward to competing again next year and continuing the training here! I may not be a Big Dawg yet but I'm in the kennel!

Beat last PR in October 2008 by 5 minutes. All pullups were unbroken *booyah* and squats in 1,2 and 5 were also unbroken. Pushups gave me a fit and had the most impact on time.
Great job Chad! And David, congrats for giving it your all at the qualifers! You've got a full year now to dial it up.
david, your effort makes you a big dawg...welcome

No wod today, I'm fighting off a cold.
I did do bit of kipping tech work, which is much needed. I'll need to revisit this during my warm up each day to see some progress. Thanks OPT for your eyes and comments.
Nice work David. Continue to give it all and you'll see results.
First Blog WOD back after broken hand. Felt as good as Barbara can. Sit-ups were the nemesis.

Man... Barbara sucks
I appreciate that James.
I had some general nutrition questions I wanted to ask, but I didn't want to take up space here. Do you mind if I email them to you?
Thanks!
