Another day to compete and challenge ourselves.We do some deadlifts and overhead squats to be able to say ; "Mom,i become a man today" ...
ReplyDeleteSorry to have to ask coach, but are the ohs from a rack or from the ground?
ReplyDeleteFrom the ground my man
DeleteIs there supposed to be a time gap between the two sessions for the regionals programming? If so, how long do you suggest, or can it be done all at once? Thanks
ReplyDeleteSo I am doing all work from home and have an airdyne but no rower, would you suggest running or airdyne for the substitute?

ReplyDeleteI would guess to take at least 4 hours between sessions. If he means for it to be done all at once, he wouldn't have it split into two sessions. Try to stick to the programming the best you can, I know sometimes it can be hard due to work though. Have a great workout tomorrow!
DeleteI was thinking the same exact thing. If you don't do it the way he prescribes then technically you aren't doing the programming. On the other hand folks like me have limited resources and a small window to complete all the work. You just have to do the best you can and get as close to what he prescribes as possible.

1RM Vertical Jump- 7'1'' reach jump to 10'2''

Regional
ReplyDelete1. 25". - not sure how accurate that is. Was solo and slapped hand with chalk against the wall to measure.
2. 375 - grip is pretty ripe from yesterday.
3. Thruster 20 RM - 135#.
Wasn't sure where to start with the thrusters. Had another 10 lbs I think, but not fo a second set of 20.
Hitting second session around noon.
Session 2.
Delete1. 9:00
2. 3:44/ 3:46/ 3:44
1. skipped due to time
ReplyDelete2. 325 with full stops (not bad since 1rm max is lousy at 365)
3. 115, probably could have gone 125 but not about to do that twice in one day.
4. 10:56, wasn't sure about hitting this since it was supposed to be session two, but it seemed to go well.
5. skipped due to time.
I am unable to do two-a-days, so am forced to drop one or two and try to fit what I can in the morning long session.... loving the volume and group I get to train with.
Thanks Coach, all of us at UCCF appreciate what you are doing.
1: 8' reach 11' jump
ReplyDelete2: 5rm DL 335
3: 135# thruster 20 rep
Session 2 later
DL ohs: 9:42
DeleteDid 3:30 on airdyne max cals x3 267 total cals
Hate to not do as coach says, but I only had time for one long session...
ReplyDelete1) Did it but had nothing to measure with.
2) 5RM @ 425 Felt very good... Like i had maybe 2 more in the tank.
3) 20RM @ 135 Also felt real good!!
4) Lower back killed me and I'm not training with bumper plates... So controlling the weight all the
time hurts a little.
Apart from all the excuses 11:25
5) 1. 3:28
2. 3:28
3. 3:28
Open
ReplyDelete1. 11:58 @ 155# OHS (last night's post)
2. Complete (@ 120#)
... maybe missed the intent of the metcon with the 155# but stuck to a game plan and was happy with steady group of 5 ...
I guess that's what you get for jonesing to see what tomorrow brings ...
Delete5rm DL 155 went for 165 but failed after 2 reps
ReplyDelete18 reps @ 75# for thrusters
WOD 11:11
125 DL started w 135 but had to take off 10# after first 11 reps- back felt smoked from the 5 rep
65 OHS
Will do the rows tonight
The work was great today!
What region are you in Kristin? Did you make the Games?
DeleteI ripped pretty badly during the open test yesterday, which is surprising because I take really good care of my hands! So the deadlifts will be severly scaled today...

Squat cleans felt pretty good after 5 second rock bottom pause squats yesterday

How can I get approved onthe BTWB link?
ReplyDeleteThat was something I started to keep track of results and what not. Did you already send a request?
DeleteTy,
Deletehow do I go about getting your COMP WOD track to show in my BTWB? I didn't see a request link anywhere. Is that something I'd have to do through my box owner/admin?
This would be awesome to track it all in BTWB..... I guess I can alwasy just click over to yours and log them anyway, but it would be nice to have it show up nice in my calendar.
In BTWB you have to search for Competitors WOD and add it as a track you want to follow. It will send me the request. I mostly just plan the regional stuff, but if a few guys start using this, I can start planning open programming as well.
DeleteMasters (40)
ReplyDelete1. 9:23
2. 3 position @ 125.
Open
ReplyDelete1. 18:25 - wrong stimulus, should have scaled OHS, DL were good.

B) Completed at 135 (about 45% of 1rm, but it's close enough).
Open
ReplyDelete1. 13:57. Went into it weary of the high rep OHS but DL ended up tougher. Posterior started tightening up so had to breakup the deads more than I wanted to. Great workout
2. Done. Missed 5 muscle ups total.

Oh yea it was a 135lb 3 pos sq clean for the OTM
DeleteOpen
ReplyDelete1. I ended up using 105 pounds for OH Squats (it must have changed after I wrote it down last night) - anyway, 7:14 :)
2. Done - instead of Muscle Ups, I did 3 Strict Ring-Pull Ups and 6 Ring Dips. Working on strength before I try doing my ugly muscle ups again :) Thank you, Cheryl! :)

Open:
ReplyDelete1. 7:48 185#DL & 115#OHS

Open
ReplyDelete1) 10:54
2) 60 kg Clean and all MU unbroken
Open
ReplyDelete1) 13:30 with OHS scaled to 115#. Should have gone all the way to 95# with a bad shoulder and OHS always have been huge GOAT
2) 125# cleans, went for max UB C2B pull-ups as I don't have Muscle-ups and C2B are a struggle for me (and not ring dips)
Open
ReplyDelete1) 8:50 very slow
2) 3 position clean 50kg
Muscle ups all unbroken
open
ReplyDelete1 11:02 oh squat at 115lbs
2 3 position clean 125lbs 2 muscleups
First time posting, but I've been following the site regularly now for about 3 weeks. Still struggling a bit with the volume, which is more than I have been used to in the past. Excited to see the results if I can hang in there.
ReplyDeleteOpen Program
1) 9:40 Rx - right around my PR on this, legs a little weary still from Monday
2) 125 cleans, muscle-ups Rx (all in sets of 2 + 1) - this really wore me down. Again, volume is just an issue for me right now. Glad to get through it all, though I had to cut the 2-second pause on the cleans after about 4 rounds b/c my hamstrings were toast.
