  1. We were trying to get the scratch together to get a yoke, didn't work out. Anyone have thoughts on ways to work around it?

    1. We use a barbell with weight on and then dangle kettlebells on bands off either side. So for example a 220kg yoke would be;
      140kg on the bar, 2 grey bands (one each side) with a 24kg and a 16kg on each band.

      In my opinion it's harder than a yoke cause the bands wobble like a shitting dog but it means when you get on a yoke you will kill it!'

  2. 1. Bounding- Worked up to a 38 inch box jump.

    2. Box Squats
    8x3, across - with 295

    3. 20 Rep Benchmark
    20 yard Max Yoke Carry- No Yoke and no time to MacGuyver one together.

    4. Metcon
    "AMRAP 10 Fran"
    Backed off my PR pace, broke up the first set of 21 pullups purposely to try to save some for the next round. Finished first round at 4 which is 1 min slower than my PR at 3 min. Didn't really matter much I was blown up the second round. Finished 1 compete round plus 6 pullups on the round of 15. 153 total reps.

    1) 121 reps. Paced the first round way to much. Definitely should have gone all out and then hung on.
    2) done RX - pistols have come along way so please with this.

    1. 105 reps (47 sec PR). I was sure I paced my first round but that PR caught me off guard. I really struggled with the last 15 thrusters.

    2. RX'd, 6 reps (3 each leg) for all 10 rounds. My right leg finally has sufficient mobility for pistols :)

  5. Reg:

    1. 30"+ three 45's.....This is a tough one for confidence and fear of pain in shins and a long tumble.

    2. 185x4 sets, then 205x4 sets. This is a newer movement, so needed to settle in to load and weighting feet right. Will start higher next time.

    3. skipped, no yoke, and Alex's suggestion above seemed a little sketchy.

    4. 186 reps. got light headed enough to have to stop for a few seconds to avoid falling over in the second set of 21 thrusters..... also I kept it a little slower at first and still matched previous PR of 3:30ish. Butterfly pull-ups felt great and smooth, only broke second set of 15 into 2 sets.

    I think a few more months of all these squats will make for thrusters not being my most disliked movement!

    Great day for me today, still wrecked from death by Diane yesterday, but feeling like real progress is being made.

  7. Regional

    1. 36in box plus two 45lb plates...one attempt with two 45lb and one 25lb and just couldn't mentally commit. (Open boxes freak me out)

    2. 315 across

    3. Barbell with 415lb loaded then a 16kg KB hanging from bands on each side. (extremely difficult to stabilize the kb's)

    4. 132 reps. Back tightened up due to the modified yoke carry. Also paced myself a little too much.

    1. quick question: Are you doing the hopper this year? I know people were ticked about the scoring last year... I was an idiot and entered the elite division last year, if I do it I'm going as a normal person!

  22. 1.) Did some banded jerks at #135, really gets that focus on speed under the bar!

    2.) Amrap 10 Fran = 2 rounds + 3... still had some gas at the end, paced a little too much but super fun:)

    ReplyDelete
  23. 1) 46", got 48 with a drop step, but I'm scoring it as 46".

    2) 205 for the first 6 sets, 225 for the last 2. Probably coulda done 225 Across but was super tight warming up.

    3) Skipped. We loaded up a barbell with some kettlebells banded to it and it just didn't feel right, I didnt want to torque by back here so I passed.

    4) 139. All Pullups unbroken, but those thrusters hurt man. My hips and abducters have been so tight, they're getting the crap stretched out of them tomorrow.
