Friday 1.18.13

Bode learning to clean like Maya (who has a 130 clean at age 12).
1. Muscle ups
5 x max Muscle ups, :30 rest between sets 

2.  OTMx12
Odd:  3 Power Clean
Even:  40 Double unders

3.   GHDSU
3 x 25 reps

4.  10 min Recovery Row
Slow and easy, no straps and no screen - flip it up or throw a t-shirt over it.



Athletes that are competing on Saturday - be sure to know the format and standards of all the wods.  They are posted on the Competitors Competition site.  This is an important part of competing.  It is not good enough to think you know the standards of a Clean and Jerk.  Always take responsibility and create confidence by knowing everything that you can about your event.  Knowledge is power.  

The site will also have live scoring updates so your buddies from home can follow you throughout the day.

Lastly, remember as you travel, mentally prepare, and compete on Saturday to only focus on what you can control.  You will get no benefit from worrying about the other competitors, the judges, the spectators or the scoring.  Instead create a successful mindset by focusing on your mental visualization, nutrition throughout the day, warming up and cool down appropriately, staying present during the competition and having fun.

  4. 1. Can't do muscle-ups at the home gym, not enough ceiling height. Did 5 rounds of strict pull-ups - 12, 6, 5, 4, 5 - followed immediately by a set of max ring dips - 12.

    2. 205# - Only got 2 PC's in the 5th round and 25 DU in the 6th round. Was doing DU on a piece of plywood in the yard, in the snow, with nothing but the spotlight from the house.

    3. 1 set. Then cut for time.

    Should have done this one at the box, methinks.

  10. 1. No muscle ups. Did 5x10 of ring rows and strict ring dips. Worked on better hand/shoulder position on ring dips so as not to be so internally rotated. (finish with thumbs out not in.) good practice.
    2. 225, 235, 235, 245, 245, 265; 40 du's per
    3. No ghd at home. Did this instead: otmx18 odd 2-3 power cleans at 185, evens 10 toes to bar. Wanted to work clean technique. I've been getting "starfishy" at heavier loads. Also noticed (thanks, Ben) that I'm muscle cleaning- finishing with hips forward and not rebending my knees and getting under the bar. Focused on getting by butt back and pausing in a quarter squat at the catch like I pause at the bottom in a squat clean sometimes. This helped alot and I'm going to work it in more. Give it a shot if you do the same thing.
