  4. 1. Snatch - 195

    2. Clean and Jerk Complex- 245

    3. Oly Pause Squats- 245, Rock bottom for 5 seconds (glutes touching back of leg)

    4. Gymnastic Benchmark- 5 meters first time, 7 meters second time

    5. Metcon- Come a long way in 3 months, couldn't do muscle ups with no false grip in May. Made it through 7 rounds and 5 power cleans in the round of 8. Muscle ups were still the limiting factor, power cleans were no problem.

    1. We are definitely polar opposites....those cleans tore me apart, I was lucky to pick the bar back up without a full step away and rest after each. I was able to get angry a few times and get sets of two or three back to back, but not one single rep were easy.

      Awesome progress though, you are making some crazy progress in such a short time, fun to watch it happen and be a part of it.

    2. Thanks man, you guys are always giving me something to shoot for in the gymnastics department. Nice handstand walk!

    3. Sounds similar to boat I'm in with MUs. Only false grip at the moment. Waiting for the breakthrough to no-false grip to happen!

      Delete
    4. Good job bro, I struggle with the mu's as well, no false grip are really rough for me, false gripping at the moment and they were a big limiting factor, the cleans were definitely the easy part! But like u, I'm making progress, a short time ago I would've died out and lost my mu's all together after about a total of 5.

  8. Reg:

    1. 185x4....just couldn't get the last one after 5 attempts, I called it and moved on before I let it get to me.

    2. 225, felt better than expected, even jerks felt quick and accurate.

    3. 225, stuck with this to make sure I would get good pauses and not give up back upon assent. Still got tough near the end with full glute to achillies pause.

    4. appx 100+ feet, this is from one end of gym to other and back again with one turnaround....fell on second turnaround or I might have gone further.

    5. 9 cleans + 3 MU's. Those cleans really took it out of me quick, but what I wasn't expecting was a complete dip failure on the top of the rings...it seemed like it came out of nowhere.

    1. Nice job on the handstand walks, impressive. And you edged me out today on the metcon.

    2. Thanks Drew, I used to work on handstands almost every single day as part of my warmup....two years later I'm confident in the skill. I usually do a bit of handstanding before any overhead work as well as a way to get my shoulders activated so I guess I'm upside down alot. Somehow it doens't help my HSPU much though.. too bad, cause those are terrible for me.

  9. Open/Masters (43)

    WOD: 8 rounds even, last MU just in time, happy with this, as 205 is getting pretty heavy
    Snatch: 5 sets of155 x 1
    ran out of time for front squats (have to start earlier than 5:30 am!)

  10. Are you guys doing everything unbroken? Or just go as long as you can with minimal rest? Trying to understand when to know you are done with this metcon..

  11. I tried to keep manageable sets the whole way through. Did 2-3 on cleans and muscleups. Probably would have been a little better showing if towards the end I had gone to singles if needed and really pushed the pace. Spent to much time resting to hit that 3rep per set mark.

  13. Regionals:

    1. 148 lbs.
    2. 176 lbs. I did this as a complex on the EMOTM10. I haven't jerked in a few weeks and I felt like I needed the practice.
    3. 209 lbs. Anybody ever heard of vasovagal response? Scary shit. I was planning on doing this at 245 lbs. and as I was working up to that weight, at 220 lbs., as I was driving out of the hole, I collapsed and had a little mini-seizure-like episode. Took a moment or two to get myself together, did a quick evaluation and decided to take it a little easy on this one...If anyone else has ever had this happen to them, please post so I don't feel so freaked out!
    4. Five attempts. Best effort was about 8'.
    5. 8 rounds plus 3 cleans.

  21. First off, let me just say, I loved today, the movements, the flow, everything.

    1) 217 Across. Yes, I got out the 1# Chips.

    2) Started at 245, but the jerk felt wierd, I felt myself get real overextendy so I backed it down to 225, then did the last set at 235. Which isn't across, I know, but it happened.

    3) 225 Across

    4) About 21'. I haven't worked on it in about a week. It's amazing how fast it goes, took 5 or 6 attempts to get this number. Will throw this in my warm ups now a few times a week just to keep the flow.

    5) 9 Full rounds + 3 cleans. Really happy about this, I was aiming to get 8 full rounds. Paced myself a bit too much early, but was still pretty smoked by round 9, so it was probably fine. I probably had another round in the tank though.

  22. Regionals - M/36/173/5'10"

    2)242# Felt pretty good. Could have went a little heavier.

    1. If you have a strong base for c2b pullups and dips, then work the core. Add hollow body rocks to your warmups.

      work that transition with the band on the low rings - the fastest situp in the world = MU on the reg.

  32. My coach wanted me to do the open program today.

    1) My mu's were a lot better than I expected them to be, but I tore pretty bad in the rd of 6 and that slowed me down, I killed the cleans, unbroken through rd 5 and then went 3/3, 4/3, and 4/4. Got 7 rds + 8 cleans.

    2) 165# no misses

    3) 295# (coach said to do the 3 sec pause on these even though it wasn't required for the open)

    1. American Dream - 7 rds + 11. Strict muscle ups with smallest band, no ceiling height. Too slow on the cleans, but at the end failed on muscle ups.

    2. Snatches - felt heavy and unstable underneath it today. Did a few reps at 135, couldn't stabilize 155 then gave up. 1RM is 200lbs, so don't know what happened. Still fatigued from the OHS the other day I think.

    3. OTM front squats 10 x 1 - 305lbs. These felt pretty good.

    1. 7 rounds of cleans plus 4 MU. Cleans @ 185. Did Bar MU because the rings aren't up in the new gym just yet. I tore my palms pretty bad on the MU so I stopped with 4:00 mins left. On the plus side that was the most bar MU ive ever done.

    Skipped 2 and 3 because of the hands.

    2) C&J Complex: #205 - Not happy with this either. Hit #215 last Monday with this.

    3) Oly Pause Squats: #225 - These felt good actually. Held them for a solid 5 sec. Wanted to go heavier because of the previous poor movements, but thought that this would be better to stay.

  50. Rough day of training. Definitely feeling the effects of the intense volume on day 5 in a row for me..

    Regionals 21/165lbs/93rd in SE in 2013

    1. Snatch- 185-
    had a hard time hitting it at first. missed about 3 or 4 times. hit it 3 in a row, then missed twice before calling it a day. odd forearm/wrist pain that made it difficult. decently heavy tngo snatch's yesterday might be the culprit

    2. C&J Complex- 225-
    did 245 last week on the same complex, but front squats were slow and tough, and jerk felt really off. at this point i was mentally done with the barbell.

    3. EMOTM Oly FS- 225
    another WOD I thought I'd hit waaaay heavier. was thinking 265 going in, but I was spent. didn't fail, but came pretty close a few times, losing lumbar.

    4. Max Distance HS Walk- just under my 100 ft. marker, so about 99 ft.

    Later that night after coaching...
    5. American Dream- Rx 9+18
    -I'm not sure anyone actually reads this, but you should for a funny story. Was UB on my muscle-ups through the round of 8, but by round 6 of the cleans, I felt a slight cramp starting in my right calf. I pushed through it, and every clean I'd feel it start to flex and go away. By my round of 9 mups, my calf would cramp slightly on my kip. So it comes down to my final 10 seconds.. Need 3 muscle-ups for 10 full rounds, and I'm definitely capable of going UB on the those 3.. I get my first, and on the next attempt my calf cramps up completely, and I'm out of commission. Like a little girl, dangling from the rings after my missed rep on muscle up #9, i'm screaming "HELLLLLLP.. stretch my foot back." Pretty solid pain. Went away after about 5-10min.

    Definitely a sign that tomorrow's a rest day. Will hit Tuesday's work on Wednesday.

    2. Dylan, I can't always keep up with you, but today it seems we are a dead match. You got a few more MU's but other than that we did the same things almost verbatim..I did not cramp though :).. I guess what I need is for you to continue to train too many days in a row, just to keep us in the same range.
