Push Jerk 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2
Maxed out at 80lbs mostly because i could not get heavier weights into a good front rack to push, became too heavier just holding in my arms0 -
Yesterday we did clean and jerk for a 1RM. I still feel more comfortable with a push jerk than a split so I'm sticking with that for now.
Got up to 195 (a PR) and stopped there to save some for Grace, which we did next.
4:12 RX. Not even near my fastest time. Usually I can get a good rhythm going (clean, bounce, jerk, drop, repeat) and I just could not get the timing of it down today.0 -
Turned up yesterday and the box was empty!
So I worked on my oly instead and got PBs:
Clean and jerk - 37.5kg
Deadlift - 75kg
Not as much as most on here yet, but Im pretty chuffed with myself!

Scale for jump rope I believe. jumping onto and off of a 45 lb plate. I've done comps where we did burpees that way. When you come up you jump onto the plate and off.0

Ok, so basically requiring you to jump a little higher each time, which is how one coach was showing me how to do DUs. Thanks!0

I might need to start another DU threads. I need to scrap what I'm doing and start from scratch. I can do one at a time, I can sometimes string 2 together but that's it.0

i'm with you. before I started crossfit (in Dec), I couldn't even do singles. I can now do singles and am working on DU. I can get one and then I think I'm stunned that I did it and mess it all up.0 -
I started from nothing and can just string together 8 singles now. Whole new skill (one of many!)0

Today's WOD is already messing with me and I don't WOD for another 7 hours!
Strength:
Complete 7 sets of the following:
1 Thruster + 1 Push Press + 1 Push Jerk + 1 Split Jerk
For Time:
50 S2OH 155/105
*Every time you drop the bar, complete 7 Chest to Bar pull ups
I think my strategy will be sets of 10, OH work is my goat.
If I make it out alive I will let you know

Heavy, but I’d really not want to drop that bar. Since I don’t have good wrist and shoulder mobility, I wouldn’t be able to rest it on my front delts efficiently, I’d probably rest it on my back. I might even try to shake out my arms one at a time with the bar on my back.

I ended up not rx'ing as the coach was firm on a 12 minute time cap. I did 95 and it took me 12:58. I was getting the side eye from the coach all throughout that 58 seconds I started with 10 reps and ended with 10 because I was not going back to that rig! but during the middle it was 5's because I did not want to push myself to failure and then be stuck doing 2's or 3's when I got back to the bar. I don't know if it was a good strategy or not, but it's what happened! 0
