In The Sport of Fitness there are NO EXCUSES.  
I know...your judge miscounted, you got "no repped" even though you were meeting the standards, 
you couldn't hear your judge, there was no chalk, your hands ripped, you could have gotten 1 more round but... 
These things happen to everyone, even the athletes that finish first.
It's part of the sport - Accept it - and move on to focusing on what you can control.

Sunday 6.10.12

Big John Dunlap
We are going to swim this week.  Don't cherry pick - YOU want to be a competitor.  Learn to swim now, not once you get to the Games.  Everyone has a pool in their town.  Find it and pay for a one month membership.  


1.  Swim
6 x 100m, rest :30

Rest as needed.

2.  Pool Work
Move a KB from one end of the pool (25m) to the other 70/53
15 HR Push ups
30 KB Goblet Squats 70/53
15 HR Push ups
Move a KB from one end of the pool to the other 70/53

Yes, the kb is going to pull you to the bottom of the pool.  Move it as far as possible before coming up for air.  Then swim to the top breathe and repeat till you get to the end.

Saturday 6.9.12

America the Beautiful.


Snatch Skill Transfer movements. 
This is a great sequence that I stole from Coach Mike Burgener.  The idea is to quickly ramp up to a heavy (but not max effort) lift for each.  Use the success you established in the previous lift to help the next, more dynamic, lift.

1.  Snatch PP + OHS
In 5 minutes work up to a heavy Snatch Push Press + Overhead Squat

2.  Snatch Balance
In 5 minutes work up to a heavy Snatch Balance

3.  Snatch 
In 5 minutes work up to a heavy Squat Snatch

4.  "Hope"
3 Rounds for max reps of:
1 minute burpees
1 minute Power Snatch 75/55
1 minute Box Jumps, 24/20
1 minute Thrusters 75/55
1 minute C2B Pull ups
Hobart's Snatch...

Friday 6.8.12

 


1.  5 RFT:
15 DL 245, 170
200m Run
15 TTB
1 minute rest between rounds


Rest 10 minutes.


2.  Burner
4 RFT:
15 Wall Balls (20, 14)
15 Box Jumps (24, 20)
15 KBS (53, 35)


This WOD is what I call a Burner.  Burners are all out efforts and one of the best ways to build metcon quickly.  Burners should work fast cycle times and no transitions.  "Helen" and "Christine" are examples of some longer, but well programmed Burners.  
Here is what burners should like:
-Straight sets - if you are breaking or stopping you are not achieving the desired goal.  Shorten up the reps or lighten the load.
-Light Weight  - if you are thinking about the weight you're not trying to increase cycle time.
-Short time domain - 2 to 6 minutes.  We don't exercise in one energetic pathway, but we are trying to max out the Glycolytic Pathway.  Think about a max effort 800m Run.  
-No Pre WOD Stress - These are wods that you should be able to jump into without a lot of physical or emotional preparation.  
-NO DOMS - there should not be any excessive soreness from properly programmed Burners.  We are looking to build you up with these not break you down in anyway.  For that reason I wouldn't classify "Fran" as a Burner.  


Hey Ben i just wanted to thank you. I came across this site just after the regional wods were announced and followed it leading into our regional(Australia and NZ).Your programming was greatand put me in good shape leading in i finished 31st in the open and 10th at regionals which i was so stoked with thanks again for being open with your programming and allowing people like me to follow it from the other side of the world.I wish your team and the rest of your athletes all the best at The Games. 
Thank you, Mark Corrigan (NSW/Australia).
