- First time back squating while wearing my new Reebok Lifter Plus shoes and I LOVE them!!!!! Lifted 75/95/105/115/125/145/165 and felt like a bad *kitten* getting to 165# (my heaviest yet)!!0 -
Today's WOD (and my first in over a week since I tweaked my elbow/forearm.) I"m a bit concerned about the pullups as I think the initial tweak came when I was doing a similar ETOM ring row set. Might do banded pull ups this time around. We will see.
If the elbow is good will probably do this at Level 1 mainly because of my OHS. My core still needs a ton of work.

Took me 18:30 at Lvl 1. My shoulder strength sucks, but I was able to do the back squats without putting down the bar. 10, a rest, then the last 25 without a break.
And someone put my weights and bar away while I laid on the mat in pain afterwards. I need to pay that one forward.0 -

Yesterday (I workout after work and almost never get on the interwebs in the evening):

WOD:

-7 pull ups (assisted or ring rows for beginners)
-9 ring dips (parrallette dips for beginners)
-11 burpees
I did assisted pullups with the green and blue bands (I made the decision last week that I was no longer going to do ring rows if assisted pull ups were an option in the WOD), parallete dips, and (because I tweaked my calf muscle a bit ago and pulling in my knees and popping up was painful) pushups on my knees. Completed 6 rnds + 7/9/9 reps.0 -
Warm up - 3( 50 (jump rope singles) + 10 (plank side knee raises) + 15 (DB Row, 10 lbs.) + 30 second plank )

WOD - Start clock at 12 minutes. Run 1 mile. Using remaining time on the clock, AMRAP hand-release push ups
Rest for 7 minutes
Start clock at 12 minutes, again. Run 1 mile, again. Using remaining time on the clock, AMRAP weighted butterfly sit ups (25 lbs.)
Collapse in a sweaty heap.0 -
1 mile weighted run. Weight is the athlete's choice. RX for men is 135, L2 95, L1 65
This was kinda fun. Did 85# and got to about 500m before I caught my foot and the edge of the sidewalk and rolled my ankle. No damage but I had to drop it. Probably dropped about 8 times and eventually would drop, then pick it up in front of me and walk with it until my traps loosened up. Did the final 300m straight too. 22:28.
Had one guy do it RX (115) in 17 minutes with no drops. As he said he's not the fittest guy there but he's dropped a ton of weight relatively quickly so this was right in his wheelhouse.0 -

I like his one. Could probably get through the first few rounds doing regular pushups but might have to switch at some point.
My cardiovascular would probably hold me back a bit too. But that is improving.0 -

I liked this one, too! I can do some regular (non hand release) pushups, but I'm not nearly strong enough yet to get myself straight up off the floor doing HRPUs on my toes.
We did a similar workout to this one a few weeks ago of DLs and bar facing burpees. I thought I was going to die. Jumping over the bar for the burpees was adding insult to burpee injury!! lol!0 -
We've been cycling through the girls this week and for some reason finished on a WOD I did in January and never thought I'd have to see again: CF Open WOD 12.1. AMRAP in 7 min of: burpees!
75.

For those of you scaling push-ups to your knees, my coach shared a little secret with me (before I even started CF, she's a good friend of mine) that worked wonders! I went from barely getting one "real" push-up, to being able to do 20 at a time (hand-release at that!) in very short time with her method.
She said, "get off your knees!" and advised that I roll-up to to the plank position and then work the negative by lowering myself straight down. I still resort to the roll-up method when there are way too many push-ups in a wod and my arms become to exhausted to push up anymore. Her reasoning was that you will gain strength in the needed muscles more with the roll-up (working the negative) method than you will with going to your knees.
I haven't done a push-up on my knees in nearly a year.0 -

This is a great tip, and I def want to get off my knees, but what do you mean by "roll up to the plank position"? I understand working the negative, but the "roll up" has me confused.
Thanks!!0
