120807

Posted on by

Sorry for the late post. I’ve been enthralled with Beach Volleyball and Water Polo all night, and just couldn’t turn away. Every part of what I just said is true, except all of it. WTF, NBC? No Weightlifting anywhere to be found, but I have to listen to Sinjin Smith babble on for hours about the difference between wet sand and dry sand? You know what? Fuck sand—I hate the beach. That’s why God invented gymnasiums, so civilized people could play Volleyball without having to worry about chafing.

Speaking of Weightlifting… Klokov withdrew, and this is strictly hearsay, because he’s on “the juice”. Then Dolega, who I have a huge snatch-crush on, proceeded to bomb out. So what could have been one of the best sessions in the history of the sport, was a complete letdown. Sweet. Anyone know when Lolo is gonna be on?

WOD 120807:

BB Gymnastics

1) 5X2 Snatch off High Boxes (just above knee) – heavy, rest 60 sec. DEMO VIDEO
2) 5X2 Clean off High Boxes (just above knee) – heavy, rest 60 sec. DEMO VIDEO

Strength

*The Back Squats are based off of YOUR THREE REP MAX – follow the link, that’s why I put it there.

1) 4X8 Back Squats @ 80% – rest 2 minutes.

Notes: Percentage is based off of 120515.

2) 5X2 Pause Front Squats – heavy (5 sec. pause in the hole), rest 90 seconds.

Conditioning

20 minute AMRAP of:

100′ Prowler Push 165/125# (50′ high handles/50′ low handles)
5 Rope Climbs 15′

Notes: A typical Prowler weighs 75#. The weights listed are with a set of 45# plates added for men, and a set of 25# plates added for women. The total Prowler weight, including the Prowler, is what’s listed above. The pushes should be performed on asphalt, not turf or any other surface that allows for less friction.

  1. 20min AMRAP.. Dafuq!?

    “…if you see anything over 12 minutes, I screwed up…”

    Should be a good wod tho. Looking forward to it!

  4. Lolo is going to get smacked by Sally Pearson. She is, as we say here, “as mad as a cut snake”.

    Here she is as the unexpected taker of silver in Beijing. It’s hilarious.

      • Dan,
        To quote my dad on Saturday night, after seeing my mum dancing at a wedding we were at.. (serious)

        “..bloody hell Deborah, the reason i didn’t come over is because you dance like a cut snake. If we ever saw an animal move like that on the farm, we’d bloody shoot it!”

        Please respond.

  5. The lack of olympic weightlifting in the olympics is bs. I did find it on msnbc kinda. Ive bbeen recording it on dvr but even then in 10 hours you get like maybe 30 mins total of weightlifting then 8 hours of water polo and beer pong oh sorry I meant ping pong cause thats a real sport. Forrest Gump would kick all there asses anyway. Totally all about Elena Isinbaeva she is smoking hot

  6. Foxtel in Aus covered every event, every second.. been awesome… Bring on the big boys tonight.

    Another reason to move here Rudy 😉

  7. You should spend more time in Asia they show a lot of weightlifting over here! cha cha cha

  8. was very disappointed at the no show,in the sport of weightlifting suspicions will be raised when somebody no shows… especially at Olympics… only wonder how chinese & north koreans have masked it so far..
    Sally pearson will lead Lolo over the line at 4pm eastern (according to my calculations based on 6am start in Aus0

  9. Shoulders are trashed. 1-Worked on snatch and clean form.

    1-220 tweaked hamstring. Should have taken the day off.
    Cash out ME PU

  11. Dude really did you not see the Brazil versus Czech in beach volleyball girls?? Thats like porn especially when they hug each other after the point come one now. And yes this is late but weightlifting was bad this year 85 and 105 class just was not what it was supposed to be at all. Lu Xia could have competed as an 85 as well.

    Stayed at 175 as I felt there was some major sticking going on half way up.

    Conditioning –
    Had to modify. Did 15 min and did 10 Strict pull ups w/ prowler push @ 125# because I swear I was doing the pushes on gravel, had no grip on my feet to get that bitch going, other guys had problems too. Gym was packed to day and couldn’t use the ropes. Funny how there will be strict Pull ups for tomorrow.

    Conditioning

    Prowler on track not asphalt. Can’t leave the building with it so….
    Did 31 Heroes on Sat w my husband and the timing worked out so all I did was rope climbs after the first round. Had some tender spots where the rope digs in on left leg. Decided to try switching legs. I think I ended up relying too much on my arms to do it, but decided it’s worth practicing cuz it helped the wear and tear.

  61. 5×2 high box snatch work: 225, 225, 225, 235, 235
    5×2 high box clean work: 255, 275, 275, 285, 295

    Strength: 4×8 squats @ 315lb
    Pause front squat: 275lb

    Conditioning: 4 full rounds + sled push
    -haven’t done rope work in awhile and it showed…grip was smoked after round two

  62. Been getting some extra work in this week. That and a short heavy metcon this morning left me feeling pretty beat up from the beginning.

    Still no Olympic work with the damn wrists.

    Strength:
    1) 365 high bar
    2) 275 – usually would be stupid light for me, but I barely even made it through the back squats today.

    Conditioning: No way to get the Prowler close to the rope. I suck at rope climbs so I just thought I’d get some practice in.

    E2MOM : 1 x 25′ rope climb for 25 minutes.
    -couldn’t even get a decent foot hold by the end. Super frustrating.

  63. BB Gym – Did lifts from the hang instead (no blocks)

    1) 70kg x 5 x 2
    2) 95kg x 5 x 2

    Lifts felt kind of difficult tonight

    Strength
    1) 145kg x 4 x 8 – These got easier by the end of the sets
    2) 120kg x 5 x 2 – These were very difficult after the back squats. Can usually do 130-135kg with this rep scheme

    Conditioning – No rope or prowler. I did a 3K row instead.

    Developing some knee tendonitis lately, it sucks..

  64. I have been following your programming for the past 7 weeks and I have never had gains like this. Last night after my workout I felt relatively good and wanted to do some power cleans. I PR’d by 40 lbs. It was only 265 but I’m 185-190 depending on how much beer I’ve had.

    All the hang and block work has made my movements so much faster and more efficient. Everything has went up. My 3 rep max on back squat is now my 8 rep. This is so freaking awesome. Power feels great.

    • Congrats on the improvements man! Great stuff. I have been on it for three solid weeks and I’m in the same boat.

  65. BBG:
    Snatch: 135, 145, 155, 165, 175 (F)

    Conditioning
    Leg was still ripped up from 31 Heroes WOD Saturday so had to change up the workout
    AMRAP 20 min:
    100′ prowler push
    10 muscle ups
    10 T2B
    5+prowler push

  70. BBG-
    Snatch- 115, 125, 135, 145, 145 (f) on second rep.

    Clean- 175, 195, 205, 215 (f) on first rep made second rep, 225 (made both of these but my grip slipped on both still stood them up on my shoulders. That is what poor mobility will get you)

    BS- 295 all reps (these felt heavy)

    FS- 225, 245, 265, 275, gym closed kicked me out before last set.

    Cond:
    Gym closed so I went to park and did 20 min amramp of 10 bar muscle ups & 100ft of bear crawls per round. Closest I could think of to mimic workout. Plus I need more muscle up work than rope work. 4 rounds + 5 muscle ups.

    Snatch- up to 180 with no misses then missed 180, tried again and made it
    C&J – up to 245 (didn’t feel very strong on these
