Ben's WOD 2/1/14

Warmup:

Jump rope
Stretch

WOD:

AMRAP 12 minutes

100m run
10 burpee pullups
25 double unders

4 rounds, 8 burpees

-I was getting really frustrated on the DU. I couldn't string them together very well.

Lift:

Finally, I got to learn the snatch. We practiced for 15 minutes. I only went up to 95 but with more practice I can definitely do more weight.

Cool Down:

10 minutes of yoga

-Seriously, I love that we do yoga like this at the end of the class. Also, this was my first class that wasn't taught by Linda.

Open Gym:

I decided to go back for open gym to practice some things.

First I rowed a 2k to warm up. I did the first 1500 at a 2:05 pace then the last 500 staying below 1:45.

I then worked on power cleans for about 15 minutes doing 5x5 at 125#. After that I did 5 sets of ring dips where I would do 3 strict then kipping to failure. Then 5x5 front squats at 155#.

Then I practiced TTB and DU for 15 minutes or so before hitting the foam roller and stretching.

Myriah & Clyde's WOD 1/31/14

A) 30 overhead squats with a dowel on trainers count

B) Find a 1RM overhead squat 
1-1-1-1-1-1-1

C: 130#
M: 80%

Omg. Freaked myself out. Dropped an 85# on my neck and couldn't mentally get any weight past that above my head. I am definitely capable of much heavier weight since my squat is my best lift but getting the bar up overhead from the back of the neck is a really scary thing. End rant.

C) Jackie!!
1000m row
50 thrusters 45/33# bar
30 pull ups

C: 9:46
M: 10:06

We both killed it. I was really hoping this one would be good for me but was nervous about the pull ups. I had to break them down into about 3s but realized after about 15 that I could take smaller breaks on them. I'm not tired it's just my arms give out. But still really happy with both our results.

Myriah & Clyde's WOD 1/29/14

A) Strict pull ups from dead hang
5-5-5-5

M: Just did as many as I could. Usually around two with a slight wiggle.
C: 15# plate added on him 

B) AMRAP in 7 minutes:
5 dead lifts
4 high hang cleans
3 front squats
2 push press
1 jerk
@ 95/65- Was all about cycling and not setting the bar down in between sets.

M: 8 rounds, 5 deadlifts
C: 100 reps (he refuses to change it to rounds for me)

Rest 7 minutes

C) AMRAP in 7 minutes:
5 V-ups
10 push ups
15 air squats

M: Once again, couldn't tell ya. Somewhere around 7 rounds. Push ups really slowed me down.

B) 5 rounds for time (10 minute time cap)
30 double unders
10 alternating arm dumbbell snatches 45/35
10 toes to bar

M: couldn't even tell ya if I tried. Possibly around my 4th round. It was so bad. I couldn't string together double unders and my toes to bar were so off. Pretty disappointed.
C: 8 toes to bar remaining

Myriah & Clyde's WOD 1/16/14

Went to open gym and combined some of the workouts we are going to miss this week.

Here is my workout:

A) 3 rounds of 20 hand release push ups for time (rest two minutes between each set)

52, 1:10, 56

Much more tiring than I imagined. By the way, if you want to try this the men had to do 30.

B) 7-7-7(+) Dead lift 
First at 70% 1RM, 75%, 80%


Deadlifts are hard. But I love them.

C) 1-1-1-1-1 Hang clean + Clean (reset each time)

66, 85, 85, 90, 95

Wasn't sure how high I would be able to go with a hang clean. Turns out much higher than I thought. Also, started doing them at 2 reps each then C pointed put it was just 1 so I wish I had started higher.

D) 2x15 toes to bar trying to go unbroken as possible- rest 1 minute between rounds 

This was hard too. Definitely not even close to unbroken.

E) 3x5 kipping HSPU

First set with 10# plate then last round just abmat.

F) One set of five kipping pull ups to make sure I still got them. It's been a while. Wanted to do three sets but my hands were done at this point from the barbell.

C's workout:

A) 4x5 Back squat


B) 2x15 toes to bar unbroken- 1 minute rest in between

Ben's WOD 1/15/14

Warm-up:

Dynamic stretching and mobility

Strength:

2 rounds of 30:30 (30 seconds work/30 seconds rest)

  • Battle ropes
  • Air squats
  • Tire flip
  • abmat sit-ups with 15# kb


4 rounds of 8 reps wide leg squat lunges

  • 45 - 95 - 95 - 115
3 rounds of:
  • 5 kipping pull-ups
  • 5 strict dips + kipping until failure

WOD:

splitting the work with a partner AMRAP 15 minutes of 

200m row
10 KB swings 55#
8 burpees
6 side shuffles (100m)

--I was going to do a different WOD since this is so similar to what I did last night but the group needed another person so I jumped in. I ended up doing all the swings and burpees for my partner, then splitting the side shuffles. We both had to row at the same time. I'm not sure why but with 5:30 left everyone started picking up their equipment. I got back on the rower and kept going until they realized we weren't supposed to stop until the time was over. So, not the best WOD but at least it was something.

A) 7-7-7(+) Back Squat

M: 135-135-145(16 reps)
C: 155-165-175(14 reps)

Will have to tell you about that tomorrow. If you recalculate our 1RM with those mine would be over 220 and Clyde's would be at 300...

B) AMRAP 7 minutes - 1 minute rest between each minute and pick up where you left off
5 wall balls 25/20
5 burpees

M: 11 (or 12) round + 3 burpees
C: 12 rounds + 3 burpees

This was HARD! C said the 25# was insane. Definitely a crazy workout.
