Anyone else feel like they're really hitting their stride right now? Maybe it's just that I'm finally feeling 100% after a back injury in November, but the last 2 weeks of training have been great. All the feelings of being overtrained/worn out back in the fall are gone, and things seem to be falling into place for the Open. But then again, I guess that was the plan.
ReplyDeleteHopefully the rest of you are feeling the same way.
Couldn't agree more! I am feeling so great!!!
DeleteAgreed. I feel the exact same way. seen some big jumps lately too because of it.
DeleteThink Ben programmed it that way?
Yep. Feeling pretty good. Seeing some big jumps as well. Love this stuff. ;)
DeleteBen is da man.
lets go!! good luck everyone.
ReplyDeleteOpen:
ReplyDeleteOnly completed 8 snatches.
So it's 288 reps rx
DeleteFirst time did this wod
Nice work man!
Deletethanks man, but honestly i was disappointed by this result. Burpees occasionally crushed me so cleans were really slow.
DeleteYeah, 145lbs has never felt so heavy.
DeleteGuys if you haven't heard Kevin Ogar severed T-11/12 and severed his spinal cord at the OC Throwdown this past weekend. If you get a chance check out https://fundly.com/kevin-ogar-s-recovery . I also believe Barbells for Boobs will be setting up a site. From my understanding he does not have medical insurance and his medical bills from this type of procedure (procedures) will be extensive.
ReplyDeleteQuick question:
ReplyDeleteLast time we did the open test (7.8.13) we did 30 burpees before the 30 c2b pullups. Any1 know why its changed?
Hope you get well soon Kevin!
Regionals
ReplyDelete1.Back Squats-265lbs. Could have probably done 275.
2.Open Test- So funny/not so funny story here. I got 285 reps. BUT, during the c2b's my bar came loose and it rolled out of my hands on the way down. Landed square on my back. Kinda knocked the wind out of me for a little less than a minute. If it wasn't for that I would've finished the snatches. Oh well! Darn garage get-up. It was a 25 rep PR nonetheless!
Awesome job Austin!
DeleteThanks man! Like Anders, I really feel like I'm hitting my stride right now. I feel great.
DeleteThis is the time to hit it... 7 weeks until the Open!

Agree with that..
DeleteC2B and cleans were suck'ish
Ya. By the time I got to c2b's my shoulders were starting to get smoked and just couldn't string more than 5 together after the first set.
DeleteYup
DeleteI even did some singles :) haha
Good to be back!
ReplyDeleteRegionals:
1) 315 across (groin still not 100%)
2) 260 reps. Had to sub hspus for pullups. I somehow managed to sprain my AC joint before I went on vacation 3 weeks ago so no pullups or muscle ups for this guy. Also, 2.5 weeks off have not had the tapering affect I'd hoped for...
Open:
ReplyDelete17 cleans, 257 total. Slower than expected on the c2b. 23 reps away from my goal.

Blaine and Lee, just out of interest, how tall are you both and what you weighing? Great reps though, good work lads!
ReplyDeleteUmm I'm short 5'6"-5'7" on a good day and weigh in between 160 & 165 in the afternoon.
Delete5'9" / 175

ReplyDeleteMetcon:
Felt really good going into this fatigue and condo started to kick in about 16:30-17:00, (145 felt heavy today)
Muscle ups are my goat especially deep into a WOD. Missed 3 that slowed me down...
Hit 297 total reps. if no misses would have gotten deep into the Wall Balls
Good judge of condo on this one.... time to start cranking it up!!!

Metcon: 344 (1+44 Wall Balls)
You are a machine!
DeleteDefinitely did not see 20 minute amrap. Finished one whole round in 16:40. I would like to think I would have gotten into the doubles with 3 minutes left. Maybe not.
ReplyDelete1. Back Squats: worked from 275 to 305
ReplyDelete2. Metcon: 300 reps. (My goal was to finish the muscle ups, I finished at 19:43 and called it a day) Didnt feel 100 percent but am still satisfied with my score. Programming is on point.

First time doing this workout. I was more just going through the motions with a conservative rep scheme approach. Will attack it a little differently next time. Great stuff though.
1 full round... (Technically 299, as I landed a muscle up and didnt lock it out because I subluxed my shoulder, which then made me take at least 30 seconds to assess if I could continue, so I'm considering that freak issue aside I would have got at least 10 wall-ball)
ReplyDeleteHappy about this but I want to repeat this workout until I'm getting through all 50 WB...
Sending my thoughts and prayers to Kevin O, very scary accident, I'm sure the CF community will do whatever it can to help him as much as possible.
Open Test - 280 Rx (13 rep PR)
ReplyDelete... TTB/C2B were the gate keeper - much too broken to give myself time on the snatches.
Open
ReplyDeleteTest: 271 reps My only "scale" was my 9.5 ft ceiling on the WBs. I'm not going to lie - I'm feeling good like many of you. If it wasn't for my nemesis (C2Bs), I would have made it to the snatches. They literally KILLED me. I think I did 20-25 singles. Awful. Other than that, I felt great.
This will likely be my only full workout of the week since I'm going to start tapering for this weekend's partner competition. I should be back in full action on Monday/Tuesday.
Keep it up everyone. Very impressive scores out there...

ReplyDelete280 reps.
Did wallballs unbroken and went straight to the box accidentally. Luckily one of my buddies corrected me before I had done too many box jumps (think I only did 6 or so). Was up all night battling my restless legs so was pretty zombie-ish this morning. Not making excuses, just noting my state. I'm well aware that there is plenty of room for improvement with some of these movements.
Another sign of my discombobulated state... at one point I looked at the time on the clock and thought, 'Man, I've got plenty of time to finish a full round'. Until I looked up a short while later and was reminded that the clock was counting down. Gulp... not enough time.

2. Back squat 7x5, 275 lbs.

Beast Cheryl!
Delete1. 295# across, felt great. Position at bottom solid and my butt wasn't sneaking out as much considering my long femurs and torso tends to help that happen.
ReplyDelete2. 291. Goal was to make it into MUs. I thought I'd make it there with more time though. Unbroken WBs, flew through DUs and BJs. Naturally, T2B was slow (10,5, 3, singles) and after those I found C2B to be really hard to string together so those were mostly singles too, which gassed me. Burpees >2min. Cleans and Jerks in ~sets of 5. Snatches singles. Made it to MUs with little under a min left.
Warm up with snatches felt great after fixing some positioning issues. Also strung together 2 no-false grip MUs for first time.
Good work Chris! It was a good measuring wod. Next time I'd like to get through a full round!
DeleteYou too Mark! Love watching your progress!

I can't find them on the site. Do you mind posting the link.
DeleteMy mistake, they have posted them on their instagram @wodapaloozamia.
DeleteAlso, I got suckered into the Open Test even though I was trying to "take it easy" this week.
335 reps. Could've broken into the 400s in the right mindset.

Box Jumps slowed me down (since I refuse to rebound) and my T2B sucked. Wish I could have gotten to the cleans faster since it wasn't heavy for me.
Well now I have to grind now.
1. 285 Across. Felt good, felt strong.
ReplyDelete2. 288. Pissed I didn't make it back to the wall balls. Was going on 4 hours sleep, a boat load of other stress and anxiety, not ideal. Oh well, no excuses. I know I can make it through everything on a better day.
On a side note, I can complain about my score, circumstance, all I want, but I just was thinking about how blessed I am to have walked out of the gym better than when I walked in, my prayers are The Ogar Family. I can't imagine the pain he is in both mentally and physically.
DeleteAmen.

ReplyDelete282 reps...meh, not too happy but first time doing it will definitely attack it a little differently next time

ReplyDeleteGot through 3 snatches - 283 reps
Did burpees before c2bs like how we did it back in July. Today was a 27 rep PR!
DeleteBiggest goat right now is probably rebounding box jumps. Built a new plyo box yesterday so will be working on it!
Also, got my tickets to the ECC!
My thoughts to the Ogar family...
1) 275 across
ReplyDelete2) 291 reps
I wanted to finish this one nutrition was off a little Sunday missed a couple meals and I felt it today. Overall I'm happy with it. Sucks going at it alone to thus one would be good chasing someone a little faster. Prayers going out to Kevin. Dex is right good or bad performance in the box we should all reflect on how fortunate we are to be healthy and do what we love.

ReplyDelete1) 295 reps.
I was disappointed with my score.. Having 3 minutes left on muscle-ups and score only 5 sucked, at least for me.

ReplyDeleteNot happy with this performance at all. Motor gave out around burpees. Battling so many injuries its been tough to string together ttb and my shoulder's not ready for butterfly c2b. Frustrating. Diet and lack of mobilization over the weekend didn't help. Looking forward to doing this one again and PR'ing big time.
Thoughts going out to Kevin Ogar. Classes did his wod in support. Most horrific sports injury I have ever witnessed. Wish him a speedy recovery!
2014 Regional & Games:
ReplyDelete1. 275# across. Could have went a little heavier but wanted to focus on really quality reps.
2. 280 Rx. I failed on 4 snatch attempts. My shoulders were cashed. Also, I think some parts I took too much rest.
Open:
ReplyDelete1) 281 - subbed 25lb db thrusters for the WB
Mostly happy with this, everything to plan except T2B where I struggled with rhythm again. Will get this new bar figured out eventually.
1. Back Squats: 275 across
ReplyDelete1. 225 across. Back and hips feel 100%, going to be back at normal weights after a local throwdown next week.
ReplyDelete2. Open test - 274 reps. Huge PR for me, last time I hit a wall on the C2B and didn't finish them. This programming is amazing.
Thoughts and prayers to Kevin. Our community had a loss here the other day. Enjoy the blessings and learn from the struggles.
Also I stopped working out in the morning after I coach, and switched to the evening, seems like I perform better. Less soreness too.
DeleteOpen - Masters - 46
ReplyDeleteHave not been posting, nursing injured shoulder and badly pulled psoas - not able to do the workouts, been modifying and doing regular classes. Feeling sorry for myself
But shoulder much better after cortisone shot and psoas getting better.
Was able to do the tester tonight: 244 reps
Posted to quick, wanted to add - reality check, no reason to feel sorry for yourself over a short term injury /set back....
ReplyDeleteOpen
ReplyDelete267 reps.
I'll take it. burpees really got to me. some serious core-fatigue after T2B and burpees.
Didn't squat got a 1rm attempt on Thursday after a 2 month squat cycle.
ReplyDeleteDid a warm up consisting of 3 rds of 200m row 25 air squats 30 doubles.
WOD 252, f*cked up twice firstly by using a 7kg ball so had to start again then started doing 40 pull ups instead of toes to bar, so that took time and energy out, did around 10 before I realised, been working alot on trying to build power recently so metcons have suffered and could feel it, as people have said the t2b and c2b really tested people. For me though the most complete crossfit WOD I've done, has it all.
Squats- 320 Across
ReplyDeleteOpen Test- 292, Had a couple no reps and I stood around way too long on the barbell stuff. I am disappointed that I didn't push myself on certain elements. This is a 6 rep improvement however those are 6 huge reps. To finish the snatches with enough time to try for the muscle ups is huge. So if I take off my Jeremy the competitor hat and put on my Jeremy the coach hat those 6 reps are a significant improvement. Even if I had finished the snatches last time I would have DNF'd the muscle ups.
