    Just getting around to posting the WOD from Friday...

    Strength:
    4x6 Bench Press (incresing load...go heavy but not *too* heavy)
    - I got to 100# in my last set and failed on the final rep

    WOD:
    For Load:
    Back Squat
    5-5-3-3-3-3-3
    - 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)!!

    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.

    Strength – Pull Ups

    Every 2 minutes, for 8 minutes:

    Max Unbroken Reps


    “The Barbell and I”

    For Time:

    Shoulder Press, 10 reps

    OHS, 15 reps

    PushPress, 20 reps

    Front Squats, 25 reps

    Push Jerk, 30 reps

    Back Squats, 35 reps



    Rx – 115/75

    L2 – 95/65

    L1 – 75/45 or less

    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.

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

    Strength:
    3x5 Front Squat (I did 75, 95, 105#)
    4x5 Back Squat (I did 105, 115, 125, 125#)

    WOD:
    12 minute AMRAP
    -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.

    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.

    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.

    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!

    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.

    Whoo!

    Fran tomorrow.

    21-15-9
    Thrusters (95/65)
    Pull Ups

    L3 – 15-12-9 Pull Ups, Thrusters as Rx’d
    L2- 75/55 Thruster, Banded Pull Ups
    L1 – 65/45 or less Thruster, Ring Rows (as horizontal as possible)

    I will go Level 1 just to set a baseline for myself. I'm certain it will hurt a lot.

    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.

    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!!
