WOD 111223:
Strength
5×2 Snatch Grip Deadlift @ 125% (of 1rm Snatch) – rest 90 sec.
Notes: Maintain posture – chest up, back scooped, knees back – no matter what. If the weight is too heavy to maintain, obviously, go down. Use straps.
Dynamic Strength
1a) Back Squat: 10×2 @ 65%+25% Band – rest 40 sec.
1b) Bench Press: 10X2 @ 65%+25% Chains – rest 40 sec.
Conditioning/Speed
4x100m Shuttle Run – rest 1:1
Notes: Set targets/cones 25m apart. Complete the 100m using 2 down and back ALL OUT sprints.
“I’ve got a red v-neck, a green v-neck, at least 3 black v-necks, I don’t really know – I’ve probably got 8 or 9 total.”
You even have one with Lions and UZI’s: http://www.forgingelitesarcasm.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/fucking-elite-shirt.jpg
Yeah, but can you do something more like these?……http://www.hulu.com/watch/287085/saturday-night-live-digital-short-v-necks
Strength 160#
1a. 160# with 65# bands (this is feeling light!)
1b. 130# (no chains available)
Conditioning/Speed – :21, :22; :23; :23 (with such short rest periods, legs were jello-y at the end)
M/F/S – 2/3/3
feeling good all the way around.
Strength:
230#
Dynamic strength:
1a) 155 on the bar
1b) 135 on the bar
Kind of frustrated with the dynamic work. We’re haven’t tested our bands resistance, so it was all guess work. The percentage on the bar ended up being more like 45 and 55 respectively. Even with the lightened load, both movements still felt SLOW. Speed/strength is gonna take a while to get up to speed (no pun intended). Going to do the speed/conditioning later, but won’t be posting times.
M/F/S-8/4/6
205# Snatch Grip DL
1a. 225# + 70# band
1b. 165# + 70# band

First time sprinting since surgery in June. Times suck, but I am fucking ecstatic that I sprinted (my favorite thing). I feel like this:

Keep sailing…
Posting for Tom K. because he’s a lazy piece of shit (and he’s my boss) –
225# Snatch Grip DL
1a. 260# + 70# bands
1b. 225# + 70# bands
:19, :20, :20, :20
S) 255
A) 225/155 with red/blue bands. Def felt easier
C) 21-23-22-21. Love to sprint
Decided to make up the 5k from last week rather than rest completely…
5k run – 19:35 (PR by 10 seconds)
Conditions:
0 degrees C (32 F) into a stiff wind on the way back. Sunny. Beautiful day really.
First half felt good…2.5 k out and back….realized about 100m in on the way back that the wind was gonna SUCK bigtime. Only looked at my watch once…with about 150m to go was at 19:09 so I burnt it in for a PR.
Not teaching today. Hadn’t eaten anything yet….was wrapping presents this morning and the trailer from the move Without Limits (Steve Prefontaine) came on my iPod….yes it’s on there. Was changed and out the door within 10 min. No warmup, just ran.
MFS
2/5/3
and FWIW I’d rather do the 100 burpees again than that.
Snatch DL 205#
1A. 195# + ~100-110# tension
1B. 195# + ~50# chain
Sprints were different because of our set up, did 4×100 yards with 5×20 yards so there was an extra turnaround. 20-22 secs.
First time following/posting. My name is Ashley Denton. I’m from CrossFit Durham in Durham, NC. Found out about Rudy through Epic’s blog.
Strength – 155#
1a. – 155#
1b. – 90#
Had a hard time knowing which bands to
use. I’m pretty sure to use thicker bands
next time. Same with bench.
Conditioning:
:25
:31
:30
:29
Figured out we finished that we ran too far. Know better for next time.
Is their any kind of replacement for chains?
Snatch Grip 175
1 a 135 and doubled up 30lb bands
b no bench (c’mon craigslist) 4 clapping push ups
Sprint 20,21,22,22
On the sprints… Do we touch the ground like a 3 point touch or just pass the line with both feet?
Good question, Cheryl. I had to post from my phone last night (from memory) and forgot that distinction…
Do them “suicide” style, touching the line with your hand each change of direction.
Good question, Cheryl. I wondered that myself. I touched the ground.
200
1a) 155 + red bands
1b) 110 + chains
Conditioning
No time. Will do tomorrow for warm up.
MFS: 3/3/6 – lats and bicep still pretty sore.
Wait…is this a “your workout is my warmup” joke?
Snatch Deads 255 felt good
Squat 225 plus purples on WS rack (felt slow as shit today)
Bench 155 plus chain (used football bar)
No suicides today played hoops easy. Should be gtg on cardio tomorrow
1) 225
a) 275 + 85ish
b) 155 + 60ish
19, 19, 20, 20
Had to do them 20m apart…gym is small even with the wall down
Felt great today. Amazing what a rest day can do. I do a really bad job at taking days off, guessing at some point “overtraining” can be counterproductive… Couldn’t rig the bands to work and don’t have chains, so modified a bit by increasing weight on both 1a and 1b, and increased reps on 1b.
Snatch Grip Deadlift – 245
1a) Back Squat: 225
1b) Bench Press: 10X5, 175

– these sucked, reminded me of college rugby practice. really felt it after the 2nd one and it showed. still very wrecked from wed wod.
Snatch deadlift @ 155 … Focused on form and recorded it because I want someone tonevaluate my set up on the bar ( video tomorrow)
Backsquats @ 155 + green bands ( they are abot 2 inches thick… Not really sure if this was the right resistance but they felt hard lol)
Bench press @ 95×5 (felt light) then 105x 5.. I have no Idea what my max bench is and I was guessing somewhere around 145.. These were relatively easy but I didnt have chains so I used bands … Same size as for back squats but set them up a little further away to increase the resistance at the top
Sprints :23 :23 :23 :22… Definitely did not push because I felt fine after…3 points of contact … Need to work on the take off!

One last met-con since Im taking two days off
1k Row and 10 Muscle-Ups-5:40(should have been sub 5 but my new wood rings are so damn slick. It’s hard and somewhat scary to link more than 3. I almost dislocated my shoulder a few weeks ago on slick wood rings so I am a bit nervous when using them.)
