Gooney goo-goo!!!
this will be fun.......
why do I have to be on a strength phase now? Bummer, would love the 45min.
Oh well, go hard everyone, the opportunity to learn is amazing!
Woo Hoo, this is going to be a fun cycle!
5am
mini cindy- 6:20
can a big dawg explain: SA alternating DB squat snatch.
-alternate hands with 40# db doing DB squat snatches? whooof
6am
workout 1
100 reps - SA alternating DB squat snatch - 40# DB
11:02. I just saw that this wasnt for time.
I chose this one first due to the great weakness that 1 arm snatches has caused me in the past. Again, another testament to this programming I flew through these reps with full ROM and power in the snatch. AWESOME!
Gonna miss this cycle and I hate missing a competition stlye cycle.
Will be getting plenty of running on thurs and fri so did some other stuff today, back on it sat or sun.
press 5x95,5x115,4x135, 5x125, 5x132

yes Garage crossfitter (Josh..I believe) you are correct on your SA alt DB squat snatch
WOD #2 - 18:45

workout 1 is for time
you CANNOT split catch it, you have to squat catch it as it says
Wod 4: 7:47
10min rest
wod 1: 9:50
Did mainsite thruster/du wod yesterday w/ 85lbs and I felt it on the first round of 15 squats. Rest day tomorrow and I'll make an attempt at the three on Thursday.
WOD #5 - 5:31
WOD 1: 50/50 SA Sasquatches
10:17*
*I have to DQ myself as many of the sasquatches were not full depth. I'm guarding an annoying quad strain.
WOD's 2-5 should be OK though, so I'll try to fit those in between packing, moving and a little bit or work.
Figured it was about time I joined it. If I want to roll with the Big Dawgs I gotta train like 'em!
What a way to start..... :o)
WOD #1
8:52 scaled to 25lb...should have just used 30lb
WOD 1: 10:09 (Day 1)
A new direction in my training is to retrain my body to adjust the intensity of a WOD by how my body feels as opposed to how much time has elapsed on the clock. The time on the clock is out of sight out of mind during my workouts now. I think it will push me into new ground mentally. We'll see how it goes.
WOD 1 Notes: Considering I'm still walking around like I have a corncob up my butt from the 50 GH Raises, I felt I needed to knock this one out first. I was hoping for less than 10 minutes but I'm pleased with the time.
WOD #5
TIME = 5:39
wod 1 = 9:17
the DB squat snatch is my weakest movement, tight shoulders and lats make the catch very hard for me. I warmed up for 45 min to get my t-spine and shoulders-lats stretched out. I also focused on moving very fast through the middle and catching DB with a straight arm. Overall happy with improvement but this movement needs much practice. all catches below parallel. cardio not an issue at all.
did 21-135# thruster
800m row (5.5)
50 hspu
800m row
21-135# thruster
28:40 the thrusters & hspu were slow & mostly singles in the end

Over 1 minute slower than my PB????
Welcome Ali!!! Nice work!
WOD 2 - 12:11.
I was barely bending my arms on the last two rows. Needed to save'em.
workout #1: 10:45 with 25lbs. Left side probably 3x slower than the right.
Another exercise to show me who is NOT boss!
PS Sweeney, make sure you log off--you owe me.
1. WOD #2 - 18:45
2. WOD #5 - 8:30
WOD #5 10:22
Practiced DUs for 15 minutes prior and seemed to find my stxking point with this movement. I wasn't cranking my wrist fast enough and I was rotating the elbow too much.
WOD 1: 8:53
WOD 2: 13:30
Chins were sucking during the third round of WOD 2.
My good friend intensity is back. I took myself close to where I was at during the Midwest Quals. Competition does that to me.
On a nutrition note, I got a hold of clean goats milk and am working on subbing it for organic whole milk, which is what I am drinking now.
Rory- How's goat milk taste compared to regular milk? I have access to raw goats milk also and i want to make the switch from organic whole milk. thks man
WOD 1- 7:15 25lbs
Would love to be able to compete, but heading to SK to compete in the SaskPower Powerlineman Rodeo, so won't be able to complete all the WODs. Will as many as I can to see how far behind everyone I am! Have fun everyone, the WODS look sweet

This was a way more taxing than I thought it would be.
WOD 4 - 6:00 @ CF PEI. Nothing broken. Thought it would have been a little faster.

WOD 5- 7:01 rx'd 1.5 pood
WOD 1
10:57
Right side was awful. Left side felt great. It was the opposite side last time. This really demonstrated some flexibility issues.
Day 2:
6:00am - workout 2
time = 15:25 - my pullups feel like garbage lately... lacked the intensity this morning. Back at it tomorrow morning and tomorrow night for the last 2.

~gm2
I went back to January and did the 'Chloe' WOD (10 doubles/290lb deads) in 5:38. Wayyyyy faster than I did last time, which was at the hall so I can hardly compare, but I think sub-5 is doable. Deadlifts weren't too bad this time, although that is a tough weight for me, but the doubles tanked. Either the deads killed my ability to rip out 30 doubles or it was the empty stomach. I play with that from time-to-time, and the general consensus is that it ain't the best but sometimes I don't have the option to eat first.
WOD #4 11:18
push-ups slowed me down.
WOD 5 12:20. Not quite satisfied. I learned the following:
1. Refine technique in DU's before starting. 1st set was horribly broken, last 50's were unbroken and I flew right through them.
2. First time with a 1½ pd KB (I bought one some time ago, remember). Hard at first, but then I got the hang of it in the 20's and went from 22 to 35 unbroken. Happy with that.
Wod 3 13:52 Tues afternoon
Wod 4 5:27 Tues pm
Wod 1 7:17 Wed am
WOD #5 - 5:31
WOD #2 - 12:58
WOD #1 - 9:02
Been following OPT blog WOD's for a while but been too scared to post but here goes nothing -
WOD 5 - 7:37
Rest about 10 min
WOD 1 - 11:43 not very good at this movement at all couldn't get into full squat so more like power snatch with squat at end (yuck) scaled to 30#
WOD 3
3:19 - 6 min rest
3:20 - 8 min rest
3:18 - 10 min rest
3:14
Felt really, really good. LARGELY due to the altitude difference between the mountain that OPT rests on, and where my sister lives in PEI. Other beneficial factors were definitely the amount of rest (both mind and body) and recovery time I have had, despite the poor sleep habits I have had, I still feel great. Goes to show how integral relaxation/peace is to elite performance. The smell of cow shit over the entire 1k also may have sped up my running today. On a side note, I have been pounding the org heavy whipped cream into me lately, with berries...yummy! And, not getting the mucous build-up like when I have Muscle Milk, Yogurt, or 3.5% Milk. Good times...back to Cal town tonight, for the last stretch of training before the Games.
Keep it up big dawgs!
Also, good times Lisa M, nothing to be afraid of with performances like that.

Disappointed with these times. They should have been ten seconds faster.
total: 14:41
Any suggestions for an adequate sub for the 30 chins in WOD #2? My hands are a mess and there's no way I'm kipping. I was thinking of doing L pullups but wonder how many would be comparable?
Anyone??
Thanks!
If you can do L pull ups, then do strict pull ups & if your hands can't handle that, do band assisted or jumping pull ups.
The last comment was for Ali.
Thought i would share this...he is michael phelps swim coach...

Wow.....woke up this morning and felt like I'd been hit by a truck!
Struggled through WOD #2 with a time of 20:55 with 75# SDLHP *first round - band assisted chins VERY slow, last 2 rounds - jumping chins felt MUCH better on the hands.
Summary
WOD #1 8:52 (25# DB)
WOD #2 20:55 (75#)
WOD #3 16:30
WOD #4 12:58
WOD #5 9:04 (1pood)
In hindsight, I saved the most challenging one for myself until the end.....not exactly the brightest idea. To be honest though, I wasn't even quite sure I'd be able to complete them all in the 3 day time period so I'm pleased that I got it done!
FUN TIMES!
Went back again and did 'The Chief' (February) and improved on that last performance.
26 full rounds and 3 cumulative cleans, up from 25 and a bit last time. Pacing better, squats better but still rough!!

Disappointed with the times, i was shooting for 3:30/set or 14min total. I felt like i was flying but times didnt prove that. I felt heavy today, i need to start running a few 400's per week to get my legs back into running shape, since I have gained 17lbs they havent been the same.

WOD 2 Notes: Now I understand what Mike said about his rows after the first round. Sumo's in practice felt heavy but after the first 350m on the row, the sumos felt lighter. This was all down to grinding through the sumos and pullups. All I have left are the sprints now.

On my last 1k today at the track, one of my old teachers had the track booked. I asked her if I could run my last 1k, she agreed and made her boys and girls (high school level) run it with me. They pushed me hard...and some kicked my butt! Thanks guys and gals! Next time I will make them all wear weight vests!

Overall Notes: The good: I hit all 50 DU's on the beginning of #5. The Bad: I should have been in the 9:00 min range on #1 and 6:00 min range on #5, no excuses. Unfortunately this sport isn't about retrys, it's about picking yourself up marching forward.
I had your number for this one Chad. Great job everyone!
