ReplyDelete... man 5 reps short of the "bonus round" - so close and yet so far - C2B you have now become my best friend - congratulations - I am going to kill you this year.
Never Commented before, but that Video of HKB pregnant and Butterfly just demanded a concise and congratulatory" HO LEEE CRAP"! Amazing. My hat is off to the young lady!

DeleteDid 241 on friday and i don't know if i could do better on this one... Really confuses to do it or not.

ReplyDeleteSunday - repeated 14.2 (despite saying I would, and glad I did). Second attempt 245 (up from 192).
Nice job Victor!
DeleteDaaaamn Victor! Almost makes me want to redo it... Almost.
DeleteGreat job!
DeleteAwesome job!
DeleteGreat work Victor....what did you do different to get into the rd of 18's?
DeleteI am in the same boat as you...I hit 197 on Saturday and going to redo after school today.
Awesome performance Victor!
DeleteGreat job Victor! That will propel you up the leaderboard. Congratulations!
DeleteThanks gents. I gotta admit that the night before I had some margaritas and came in on Sunday with a "could give a shit" attitude started moving and went for it. I think I got re-think the way I mentally approach my game.
DeleteOpen.
ReplyDeleteFriday's result - 197.

So anyway rather happy with Friday's result.

Nice work...great improvement!

ReplyDelete179 friday
190 today. Happy with the result.
Hey Guys!
ReplyDeleteI ended up waiting until Saturday to do 14.2 back was super tight last week
Ended up with 195... would have loved to get into the 200's and get into the 18's but my hand ripped open so early... just had to power through the blood
Just wondering if there is a Built by Bergeron female leaderboard?
Will do posted work tonight! Goodluck to all re-doing!
Great job!
Delete14.2 - 250.
ReplyDeleteWasn't sure if I was going to be able to do 14.2 after a pulled a muscle in my lower back last Monday. Showed up at Michael's gym in Tampa and almost had to crawl out. Completed 1 rep this morning just to have a score and it felt good, so I kept going.
Joey, I am happy you are feeling better! Great score, too. It was nice meeting you. You are a very nice guy. Good luck the rest of the way.
DeleteWaited til Saturday to do attempt one because crazy sick friday - 182. 188 today - extremely disappointed - C2B are very strong for me, but grip gave out out of all things. 2 WODs limited by grip so at least there is an obvious weakness to train in the coming year. Enough griping - on to 14.3.
ReplyDeleteDid 14.2 Sat ended up with 140 going to attempt it again later on hoping to get to the round of 16. Forearms were shot Sat
ReplyDeleteOpen
ReplyDeleteScore - 188 Reps
This was my second attempt, since I was still adjusting to time zone here in Kuwait . I felt great today respiratory wise ! Unfortunately the muscles were a bit fatigued from doing it Friday. Happy with the 20 rep improvement over 166 on Friday.

DeleteRe did 14.2 improved 31 reps. Got int the 2nd set of OHS in the round of 14. Wish I could of finished them all. The OHS weren't the problem it was that set of 14 C2B pull ups. Shoulders were smoked. Happy with it but still need work on those pull ups.
Nice job Rich!
DeleteThanks Mike, everyone on this board is improving. I bet if we all looked back at where we were to where we are at now there would be stark differences. On the improvement side of course. 6 months ago I couldn't even OHS the bar or get 30 DU's in a row or think of getting a clean & jerk of 225, but it's all happened due to Ben's programming and dedication. Still have a lot to gain and improve upon and I look forward to that.
DeleteOpen
ReplyDelete14.2 take 2 - 76 (6 reps better). Overhead squats, as usual, killed me.
I tried my best to catch you Ilya, but I just didn't have enough in the tank! Nice work...every rep counts!

137 today
Re-did 14.2. One rep improvement. 131. Like in 14.1, grip was the limiting factor, as was general efficiency on the CTB. I am making a list for 2015.
ReplyDeleteGreat job everyone! There are quite a few people on this board that are in the top 2% of their divisions. Very impressive group of athletes.
Great work Michael!
DeleteThanks Keith. I really appreciate it. I am a little disappointed, but I will carry on! :)
Delete1 rep improvement: STILL IMPROVING.
DeleteYou rock Michael. Keep this attitude, it's inspiring people more than you think.
I second that Greg. Great job Michael!
DeleteHey Tony Biolo - great job on your re-take! I missed your post from yesterday, but I wanted to congratulate you! That is a big deal!
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
DeleteThanks...Been waiting for your post! I thought you could get to the 16's for sure! Grip is hitting everyone hard! I will give you some grip if you give me some of your "tank" (stamina & endurance)!
DeleteAgree...this is a VERY impressive group of people! Motivating, positive and helpful!
got docked a couple of reps so now the official 14.2 is 170...still happy with making it to the 16's...
I thought I was going to get into the 16's today. I had a good pace, but dropped my 14th OHS on the second round, probably lost 30 seconds in that debacle. Only had about 20 seconds to crank out some pull-ups and I literally could not hold onto the bar.
DeleteI am just hoping 14.3 lets me rest my shoulders and grip a little.
Again, great job. You should be very proud.
Also, did some punishment work (modified version of Saturday's Open work):
Delete5 rounds
200m run
15 box jumps 30"
10 wall balls 30 lbs.
I am not using a 20 lbs. ball again unless it is in a competition.

Also on the fence about redoing.. 264 on Friday. Hand ripped, and quads sore as heck. https://vimeo.com/88616511

ReplyDelete14.2 redo: 131, satisfied, as I wasn't going to redo, got talked into it at last second, 13 rep improvement, have to work on being more efficient with butterflies.
Great job Peter!
DeleteThanks Michael, sure is hard trying to keep up with all the fit old guys here!

196 and completely DE-GLOVED my hands :(. Couldnt hold on after that.

Everything felt weak and worn down today. Not unexpected I guess.

2 rnds of: MUs to ring dip sets (total of 25), 50' back rack walking lunge (no ropes)
Stopped after 2nds due to some left shoulder pain and uncharacteristic lack of stability during WLs. I think the past couple days are taking their toll.
Open 14.2 = Lesson Learned
ReplyDeleteFriday: 64 reps (with 6-7 no reps)
Saturday: 39 reps WAY too eager and a big mistake. I wasn't ready mentally or physically.
Monday: 74 reps The pressure was on. I deleted Saturday's WOD because I was so disgusted, and Friday's wasn't valid. Damn, that was a close one.
I would have loved to make it to the next round, but my pull ups just aren't there yet, so I'll take the 10 rep improvement and RUN! If Castro programs any more pull ups this year, I am prepared to hunt him down.
Friday and Monday's videos are posted if you click on my name. As always, all feedback is welcome. Thanks!
Had a little free time at work today and watched your video. Way to stick to those pull ups man! Keep working and they'll come. OHS depth was DEEP! Very solid workout.
DeleteAwesome drive and perseverance! Dude, your OHS are solid! great depth and they look awesome at the top too. I thought your pacing was excellent, which is probably how you were able to get a 10 rep improvement in spite of doing it 3x in 4 days!
DeleteBut dude, I'm worried the video submission standards are going to be the reason for your rejection. I'm def not an expert here but I know the judges friggin' invalidate videos because there's no 2nd person in the shot and movements aren't clearly seen. Its obvious you are getting c2bs, but I'm worried some judge is going to invalid your video because you can't actually see your chest hit the bar.
Great job, Jon!
DeleteThanks guys - I appreciate the feedback. And Chris G, I hear you...and I hope that they don't invalidate for not having a 2nd person because it just doesn't make sense. Last year I dragged my kids into the video, but I didn't want to torture them this time around ;o) Back to practicing...
DeleteGood work Jon, nice improvement! Your OHS look great and solid. For the pull-ups, it is hard to tell from the angle, but it looks like you really muscle them, you may want to be more aggressive with your hips (I'm no expert, but that is what I'm told I do as well). Nice garage set-up!
Delete14.2- second try - 205

Didn't want to do it again but my training partner topped me on his second attempt so competitive nature took over.

Anyone know a resource that teaches effective butterfly C2Bs? I've been working them for months, have watched stuff from Spealler, and just can't get the rhythm yet. It really crippled me on 14.2.
ReplyDeleteI'd say speals videos are the best. Follow him on Instagram. I'm pretty sure he posted himself doin CTB in slo mo the other day.
DeleteI'm in the same boat. I usually can do a few but I bombed this workout. Onto 14.2 though. http://gymnasticswod.com/content/butterfly-pull-progression-pt4 I have been going over these to help me get better. Been improving steadily. THese are just butterfly but improving your position here will allow for maximum power. I have noticed a big increase in efficiency over the last few weeks.
DeleteThanks guys. I appreciate the tips. I've been trying to post on this site since September, but could never figure it out. All of my posts just vanished. I think I have it figured out now. :)

I'm sorry guys I failed to post in the past week, caught a sinusitis which made me drop back from my box for almost the entire week. Happy to see the damages were limited this week :)
In a real good position for the Open right now. I'll fight for my life in the 3 other workouts.

Open 14.2 retest - 112 up from 85 reps on Friday. Thanks for all the feedback guys. Did OHS unbroken for 10s and 12s. dropped quicker on the pullups.
ReplyDeleteOn a funny note, video is kind of a disaster. i stopped after the second set of 10 OHS and walked around like i was done with the round. my buddy told me about 30 seconds later to do the pullups.
