WOD 120106:
Strength
*If last week’s High-Bar work seemed easy you may raise your base number approximately 5%. If it was difficult stay right where you are.
1) High-Bar Back Squat: 1X10 @ 60%, 1X8 @ 70%, 1X8 @ 75%, 1X8 @ 80% – rest 2-3 min. between each set.
2a) 4X5 Shoulder Press @ 85% of last week’s 3rm, rest 60 sec.
2b) Front Squats: 1X5 @ 60%, 1X5 @ 65%, 2X5 @ 70% – rest 60 sec.
Conditioning
Choose one…
Row: 3X1K – rest 1:1 – 30 burpee penalty for every set that deviates +/- 5 sec. from the fastest set.
Run: 4X800m – rest 1:1 – 25 burpee penalty for every set that deviates +/- 5 sec. from the fastest set.
Swim: 5X100m – rest 2:1 – 20 burpee penalty for every set that deviates +/- 5 sec. from the fastest set.
Notes: All work should be at approximately 90-95% RPE.
Skill
5 minute AMRAP of STRICT Muscle-Ups.
Notes: If you do not have strict Muscle-Ups work on as little kip as possible. All reps should be performed with a full turnout and extended arm to start.
oooo i think i will do the swim!! fun!!
if anyone needs a point of reference for how to pace the 800s, then the mcmillan run calculator will help: http://www.mcmillanrunning.com/index.php/site/calculator. just plug in a distance time (like your 5k) and use the split range for “middle distance runners” under speed workouts. it is usually accurate w/in a couple secs.
Huge help. Thanks for the link JMac.
Thinking about trying this new energy supplement before going for a swim today-
a small amount of pu$$ies may experience…..paranoia
Nice work Jay and Kevin that was badass!
Thanks man but your muscle up/DB workout x 2 trumps us both !!

No Rope so did Tommy V “ish” from your outlaw crossfit site.
Thrusters/Wall Walks (FML this sucked)

Rushed into this. Less than 10 min after tommy V. Didn’t want to make the owner stick around any longer. Last 5 were brutal. I think fresh I could get the 100# for 25.
Back home tomorrow. Couldn’t have dreamt up a better scenario to train down here.
Gary of CF Predators is awesome !!
NICE work on your Tommy V PR!!! Looks like you’ve been taking care of a goat over the last year and half. Good for you. On another note, I see a silver lining. Thanks for posting that!

3:07; 3:11; 3:07; 3:15*last 2x laps a kids class ran on the track with me-slowed me down a bit. But, it was fun having the little kids race me.
1) 145, 170, 180, 195 – only got to my 4th rep on the last set. i did something to my knee while i was on that rep. i think i’m trying to bounce too much. i don’t seem to have enough control in the drop when the weight gets heavy. no bueno.

2b) 126, 136, 150, 150
i am going back this evening for the conditioning and the skill work. someone walked in the door with a 6 week old black lab puppy and that was it for me. i will forever choose puppy dogs over running/rowing.

MU Amrap: 15

conditioning:

Press: 165
Front: Went light at 210. I’m going to do the Wod Club Open on Sunday so I’ll be doing plenty of front squats then.
Run: Slow. My body performs exceptionally in the 1 to 10 second time domains. Sprints, jumps, explosive lifts. Beyond that time frame I stink. That being said, loved this wod SPECIFICALLY because I suck at it.
MU amrap: Didn’t do this as an amrap but more of a “practice strict muscle-ups for 5 minutes”. Did 10.

3x 1000m row rest 1:1

MFS: 3/5/4 – Still sick :/
hi bar squats based % off 325 felt like I was getting legit work done using 325 as my max as oppose to 300
press 130 for all sets (right shoulder still not all there)

Goat, work with bands was plan, however, got major calf cramp that would not go away. Still hobbling hours later. WTF. Will hit these tomorrow to get the skill work in.
1) 185, 210, 225, 240
2a) 120
2b) 155, 165, 185, 185
4 x 800 run-(track was actually 0.48 instead of the full 0.50)- 2:39, 2:40, 2:44, 2:41
Strict MU- 8, got first 3 consecutive then 2, 1, and 1
1. 135, 155, 165, 180
2a. 80 on all sets
2b. 115, 125, 135, 135
Conditioning: 800’s 3:20, 3:23, 3:25, 3:19 I think our corse is a little short of 800 but it has a little hill. I did 25 burpees.
Skill
4 Strict MU’s (First 2 were ugly but later figured out how to lean back a little and transition over the rings better)
1. 140, 160, 175, 185 95% of 245
2a. 60#
2b. 120, 130, 145, 145 95% of 215
800 m run: lapped the school parking lot twice, so not exact. But not too far off. My PR for 800 is 2:30’s on a 200 meter turnaround path. Times today: 2:34, 2:31, 2:33, 2:38–hamstrings were feeling F-A-B-U-L-O-U-S. No burpees.
Muscle-up practice tomorrow. Had to go teach bootcamp.
M/F/S: 1/1/2 felt GREAT after rest day
Thougt I posted earlier but I dot see it, ether I fucked up and posted it somewhere else, Or I neglected to hit the whole “post” button. Oh well.
1) 240, 285, 305, 325 (yeah, that final 8 sucked some serious ass, holy cow!)
2a) 155, 150, 150, 150 (last set was easier than the first by a long shot)
2b) 190, 205, 220, 220 (feeling better)
Conditioning – swimming bitches! Oh wait, I suck at swimming…
1:54, 1:56, 1:56, 1:58, 1:56
Muscle ups – 3 with a little kip. Oy
1) 225, 260, 275, 285 – last set was suppose to be 295 but 275 felt like a house, last set was much slower than the first three, had to pause between every rep. I was surprised I got all 8 with 285.
2a) 145 all sets, these felt good 3rd set was a little difficult
2b) 190, 205, 225, 225 – these are getting a lot better, they aren’t as fast as I think they should be, but I am able to keep my elbows up and ass back the whole time.
Runs – 2:39(we realized this was obviously a little short, so we lengthened it) last 3 were 2:51, 2:56, 2:53. These were difficult, but after every run except the last one I felt like I should have pushed harder. This is one of the reasons why I hate running.
Skills – I think I finally got the technique on strict MUs, got 2 in the first minute and then I failed about 4 times the next 2 minutes. Then a light bulb went off and I realized what I was doing wrong, and I got 4 more in the next 3 min. I know it was a total of 6 min but I was happy I could consistently get them.
High Bar Back Squat – 200, 230, 250, 265 (last set was difficult, glad that it appears I’m not alone feeling that way)
Press – 4 x 5 @ 135
Front Squat – 170, 185, 2 @ 200
4 x 800m run – 2:39, 2:39, 2:41, 2:42
Had to leave the gym to get the runs in. Will do the strict muscle ups tomorrow.
Posting reluctantly only because Rudy requested we post….not because I’m proud of these times or numbers…work in progress.
HBBS 70, 75, 80, 90 (using an old 1rm, need to retest that)
FS 70, 75, 85, 85
SH PRESS 55 for all (neck still strained scared of big weight over head)
row 4:19.5, 4:21.6, 4:21.8 the threat of burpees actually motivated me incredibly!
no time left for mu’s and probably couldn’t have done many after the row but did one for fun between my squats….
1) 130, 140, 150, 160
2a) 75
2b) 120, 130, 140, 140 – Easy reps.

After having to walk through everyone for not quite a block I sprinted it back to the gym as fast as possible. I gave myself a free pass on the burpee penalty due to an act of God.

Should have done all sets at 185. Last set was cake.
2b) 240×5, 260×5, 280x5x2
These feel too easy, but I’m basing my numbers off what is probably a bit more than my 1RM..?
Coward’s Practice
-Had to remeasure since I knew my times couldn’t be right. Actually 705m instead of 800m.
2:35, 2:31, 2:32, 2:29
That last one hurt.
Strict Muscle-ups

Fucking beast..

1) 95, 110, 117.5, 125
2a) 65, 60, 60, 60
2b) 80, 87.5, 95
Started too high on presses. 60 was actual % of last weeks 3rm. I got 65 for the full 5 anyways. Figured out something with form on the last set that made it way easier. Something may have just suddenly clicked in my head. We’ll see how it changes things next press day. Last set of squats at 125 was getting rough.
Conditioning:
Row: 3x1000m with 1:1 work/rest.
3:40, 3:40, 3:39
First row was totally cold. I did the strength work and then had to coach some classes so near the end of the Oly class I was coaching I jumped on the rower while my guys were squatting and did the rest of the workout.

This was half-bodyweight. I know its not a real muscle-up, but it is patterning it.
Good seeing you posting here man! Such a bummer about the broken hand, but it’s awesome you’re staying motivated and training hard. And at least you’re still able to squat. Keep it up!
