215 for all sets. I estimated my 1RM based on my 3RM of 225 from the "OPT 3" on 6/30/09.
MET con was 3:16. Couple of misses on the 2nd set of double unders, and a couple of re-grips on the KTE's. I think sub 2:10 may be possible but my feeling is the grip will be shot and prevent a completely unbroken 2 rounds. Somebody prove me wrong!
Yea I figured we had to use same weights but 205 felt heavy at first so I decided to start with that...jump to 225 which felt better, then to 235...last two sets were just to push myself a tad harder...no way i could have done all 10 sets with those weights.
These were pretty much all hard. Full depth and a bit of a bounce at bottom.
Metcon: 3:30
shoelace came untied and I had to stop to tie it of all things. 2 missess first set of 50, several 2nd set...maybe 5 but not sure. K2E slow as I can't quite figure out a kip on a bar without massive swinging. Real grip smoker.
I found out about this blog at the CrossFit Games this year (thanks Lauren P.) and look forward to learning everything I can from you guys. Hope to contribute in anyway I can.
This was my first WOD after the Games (three weeks off). Week one was spent maximizing time with the family, week two, traveling back to Iraq, and week three, on mission.
Warm-up:
Three Rounds: 10 x Pull-ups 10 x HSPU 10 x Sit-ups 10 x Super-Man 10 x OHS 10 sec L-Sit Stretch Front Squat: 135# x 4, 225# x 2, 315# x 2
WOD:
Part 1 - 300# (1RM Unknown)
This was a bit too easy, which surprised me.
Part 2 - 3:23
Double unders broken probably 4 times on each round. K2E fell apart on the second round. Was just under 2:00 when I jumped on the bar for round two.
James – I'm sorry we weren't able to link up after the games. During the competition I saw that I have a lot to learn, and will only go so far trying to do this alone. I look forward to trying to learn as much as I can from you and your slice of the community as I can. Thanks, to everyone here, in advance.
Thanks Grant. Felt good today, had some excess energy to burn off due to the excitement for the Rider/Stamps game tonight. Look for me at the game tonight, I'll be the one streaking down the field with OPT painted on me....in green of course!!
FS 250 x2 x10sets [felt too ez; but got great a2a ROM]...
MetCon: 2:09 - frapped up in the 2nd round of DUs w/ a miss... first round 58 or 59 sec... was hoping for sub 2... filming wasn't the best b/c it was busier than usual and couldn't set up how i would have liked... but hopefully u get the idea...
hixy... got ur email... now that i know ur back, i'll hit u a reply...
gord... i WOD [verb?] at a place called Kirmayer Fitness Center [KFC if u will... and there is a KFC (Kentucky Fried Chicken) across the street]. it is the fitness center that is apart of KU MED. it is the hospital facility and it gets the job done. if i go 2 early, there is most definitely a lady who enjoys yelling at me to stop disturbing others' workouts b/c of the banging of weights (WR is on the second floor and if u do anything more than slowly place the weight upon the ground like a feather, the place reverberates...). but there is now another person who crossfits there and i am encouraging as many others as possible to join in... in which case how would i b disrupting anyone when we r all doing similar things?... nonetheless, on occasion i'll head to 24 hr fitness b/c the hrs at KFC r HORRIBLE... but it works for now i suppose...
geoff... sorry i couldn't get a better angle for u... initially i was going to try and DU right by the squat rack, in which case i could have gotten more of a side view... but a few people kept walking through that area and i tried 2 b as mindful as possible... i appreciate ur eagle eye!...
right knee has been bothering me so did not do the front squats.
metcon: 6:04 1st round in 1:50 (36/14 d/u's, 15/5 k2e's) ...fell apart in the second round. (d/u's broken up, 7/5/4/2/2 k2e's)
Unit...nice job bro... very impressive! very controlled on your k2e's. i have a tough time stopping my swing and keeping my momentum going. they are very slow and painful. k2e's are my nemesis.
I've been talking to Garage about getting signed up with a local CF affiliate here in Rochester to participate in the Fight Gone Bad! fundraiser. Josh (GFR) said that he'd be willing to come out to Rochester and I have two othe rbuddies that are into as well. I thought it would be sweet to get a miniteam together and raise some cash for a great cause as well as rep out our mad OPT skills! Anyway let me know if you're interested.
First 5 sets at 195lbs, then due to extreme tightness and not enough stretching felt something tweak in my back. Tried to roll it out and try and relieve but decided to stop and will be focusing at rehabing and settling down the muscles for the next couple days. Great job today guys, lots of great weights and times!
Got this done in my friend's garage while dropping him off after our trip to rainier's strongest man contest.
FS: 201x2 for 10 sets. felt good, fast. Metcon: 3:08', but did single unders (100 ea. round) since I was barefoot and am bad at them. Got to remember other shoes than sandals... Will do 100 D.U. tomorrow.
PWO: 10 oz raw milk 10p/15c/10f?? (all he had there, bad planning on my part!)
3rm is 305 and found some calc online that put my 1rm at 345. This was mistake #1.
used 310 felt heavy and back finally gave out on set 7 on the second rep. dropped to 295. back finally just quit on 10th set. I didn't strain it, and it didn't burn. It just ceased to keep my back straight and down went the weight.
metcon: 5:26 K2E's were fine and unbroken. DU's gave me tremendous fits. when practicing before the wod i was fine and then @ 3,2,1,Go I started flogging my shins without mercy.
