Been waiting for months to post this one…
What you see above is an Antipode Map. Basically, an Antipode is a a spot on the globe that is directly opposite to your current location. When I booked the trip to Australia, and began to look at flights home from Perth, I realized: I would literally be as far from home as possible.
For a person that grew up in a trailer park, and had never left North America until last year, this is clearly pretty interesting little factoid.
“But by the grace of God I am what I am, and his grace toward me was not in vain. On the contrary, I worked harder than any of them, though it was not I, but the grace of God that is with me.” – 1 Corinthians 15:10
WOD 130118:
Strength
1) Every 20 seconds for 3:00 (22 total reps): 2 Banded Deadlift @ 50% Bar Weight + 25% Band Tension
Notes: The bar should be loaded with 50% of the 1RM Deadlift. Band tension should equal 25% of 1RM at the top of the lift. Judging band weight and setup is explained in this DEMO VIDEO
2a) Bench Press: 2X5 @ 80%, 2X3 @ 85%, 3X1 @ 90% – rest 60 sec.
Notes: All reps must be performed with the hips (ass) in contact with the bench.
2b) Strict Weighted Pull-ups: 2X5 @ 70%, 2X3 @ 75%, 3X1 @ 80% – rest 60 sec.
Notes: 2a & 2b should be performed in alternating sets.
Conditioning
1) With a 10 minute clock…
5 minute AMRAP of:
KB Snatches 24/16kg
-then (no rest)-
Run 800m
*Rest the remainder of the 10 minutes.
2) With a 5 minute clock…
2:30 minute AMRAP of:
KB Snatches 24/16kg
-then (no rest)-
Run 400m
Notes: KB Snatches may be apportioned in any way, but an equal number per arm is the goal.
Love the verse, good stuff.
I remember this got pretty heated last time we had KB Snatches, but are they from the ground or swing? I can find many links that show both, but sometimes for former is called a “Ground to Overhead” – to me G2O would then allow shouldering the KB and pressing or jerking it overhead, opposed to a single movement.
I think from the ground is more difficult overall (more distance to travel), but from a swing is more intensive on your grip. Each has it’s pros and cons, and people were arguing both ways last time.
Thoughts?
ALWAYS from the “hang” or swing unless noted. Use a traditional “Russian” swinging style.
Absolutely one of my favorite verses.. His grace provides and His love endures!
Can’t wait to hit this one tomorrow.
