Becca's message to herself for 14.5
Coach,
ReplyDeleteIf we qualified for Regionals for Teams, do we switch from Open to Regionals until May?
Thanks again for putting this programming out there!
Greg, if you are referring to you qualifying... congratulations!
DeleteThanks Adam! Made it in Teams. Happy. I think it will be next year, with another full year of CompWod and "goat shooting" :)
DeleteBen, thanks!!! I know everyone here is tremendously thankful for the programming on this site! I myself have seen a nearly 800 person jump in position on the leader board from last year to this.... due in no small part to this programming! Now for us Open guys... any chance you will bring back the Get Ha-uge phase? If one thing is certain my absolute strength and power endurance are weaknesses that need improving!
ReplyDeleteHere is what Ben replied to Tyler Bennett March 24:
Delete"We no longer follow a periodized approach like "Get Ha-uge". The approach we follow now is posted in the programming philosophy."
Hope that helps!
Had to dig deep today to do the program after doing 14.5 yesterday. Feeling flat...
ReplyDeleteOPEN
Score - 5 Rounds + 200m run + 7 reps
All Power cleans unbroken , C2B is one of my strong points but I just could not hit butterfly properly today, was some weird looking gymnastic kip with a butterfly attempt. This slowed me down a bit. Should have had 6 full rounds +
Resting up now till Monday night then gonna hit 14.5 again
Nice work and good job yesterday too!
DeleteHey Jeremiah. My name is Adam. I'm new on here and this was my first WOD following the OPEN prescription. Sometimes I have to work out by myself, so as a way to stay motivated and push myself, I saw you had the best performace. So I wrote down your score on my white board and gunned for it. You won:) I'll try and get you next time:) I did 5 rounds + 100 meter run.
DeleteOn another note, I like your pic of you in Africa. I've done quite a bit of travelling myself on little mission trips....mexico...Dominican republic...jamaica
Open
ReplyDelete4R+3 strict pullup
Did strict pullups as my left shoulder still painful since 14.1 ! 14.5 did not feel me better.
Cleans in UB round 1 then 4/3
Pullup UB then 4/3
Can't wait to start a new year prep to kill those weaknesses. I don't know for you all but for me, this year's open have more exposed myself to my weaknesses than last years.
14.5 - did it this morning with rest of the CompWOD-ers from Apex.
ReplyDelete13:24 - 21/12+6/9+6/8+4/9/6/3. I am happy with my time. IF I redo this ill break up the thrusters a little more in the higher rounds and try to take shorter rest breaks. Awesome work this year to everyone. It's awesome to be a part of great group of people. I hope a CompWOD weekend gets set for this summer to meet some of you guys.
Nice work Clayton!
DeleteThanks Mark. Great work during the open!
DeleteClayton, FANTASTIC job during the Open. You really put up some awesome scores. I am looking forward to watching your improvement over the next year. Congratulations!
DeleteThat means a lot coming from you Michael. It's athletes like you that keep me motivated.
DeleteGreat work Clayton, we will be redoing on Monday!!

ReplyDelete13:57. My Open season is over. I am looking forward to getting back to training and rooting for those of you who qualify for Regionals, the Games and the Masters video qualifier.
Keep up the great work everyone. This community really is special to me.
Nice work Michael! Your enthusiasm and positivity is a beacon for this community. You are one hell of an athlete too. Thanks for the inspiration an looking forward to the coming months of training with this community. I said I was done with 14.5 after I finished it.. But I may give it one more whirl on Monday. Change up my strategy - break up the thrusters earlier and do all step ups.. See what happens!
DeleteStellar work on the Open Michael! I ready to get back to training also
DeleteGreat job Michael! I thought you were in the top 200? If not, for sure next year! I have always looked forward to your posts, keep pushing it, and maybe we can meet up at a Ben camp as Steeve says.

ReplyDeleteDid 14.5 this morning with most of Apex Comp followers - 12:26 First open workout this year that I felt good going in as these are strong movements for me. I'm content with my time and not sure if I'll redo. All of you crushed the open this year and good luck to all that are going to regionals!
Great job Austin!

4.) 5:08rx
Had a ton of fun with this one. Wish I could have rested the full time to push my times a little bit. Thanks, Ben, for everything you do for the community! This has been a wonderful experience since following.
Best of luck to you at Regionals!
DeleteThanks, Michael!! I always enjoy reading your posts and am inspired to push myself like you always do. I'm very happy to be a part of this community, it truly has been a great experience:)

ReplyDeleteSo for folks following the open programming...do we jump into training for the 2015 open. With seeing the strength portion in the open this year should we do 2 months of Get Huge as "Off Season" training? Was just curious for what's in store.

Sometimes you just have to take a step back and have some fun. I was planning on dropping back a day on the regional programming like i had been doing before the open started. So I used today to rest a lot and just have some fun at the gym. Jogged a 5K for a good friends son that has CF this morning. Broke out the ole axel bar and did a few different emotms and complexs. Refreshing day and ready to hit this day of programming tomorrow!

I've been doing Crossfit for 4 years now. I have my Crossfit Level 1, and have been coaching others in Crossfit on the side for a couple years. I train in my shop building out back behind my house. I have just about everything I need back there. Enough about me.
ReplyDeleteI'm very impressed with the programming on this site. Please consider me part of your community. I have aspirations of making it to Regionals 2015. I will be following the OPEN prescription.
OPEN:
5 rounds, 100 meter run. I've been having mobility issues, so this was my first workout in over a week and a half. My goal was to make 5 rounds. I'm happy with my performance. I give my intensity score a 9.
Thanks, everyone!
