Rob PMFF Posted April 5, 2011 Author Share Posted April 5, 2011 Yeah, but the only games showing on FoxSC is Madrid vs. Tottenham, and Inter Milan vs. Schalke. And ESPN2 isn't showing any of them, which is unusual. Shite. 04/05/2011Warm up:3 rounds of - 5 ring dips (red band)5 pistols (used rope for support)5 hand stand push ups (small range of motion)5 kipping pulls ups (touched the floor after each one ) WOD:Part 14 rounds of -Row 150 M12 unbroken barbell Thrusters (45 lbs)7 pull ups (used green band)90 secs restTotal Time - 8:37 not including rest periods Part 210 minutes to find max load for x1 Power clean into x5 unbroken ThrustersLoad - 65 lbs85 lbs95 lbs Maybe could have gone a little heavier, but the fatigue was setting in and my form was bound to be getting sloppier. Surprisingly, doing this second part after already being tired was pretty fun. Endorphines kicking in, I guess. Felt like a beast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob PMFF Posted April 5, 2011 Author Share Posted April 5, 2011 @Carrie - When I first started, I would see people doing handstands, and I'd think I could never do that. Not to mention HSPU's. But it just takes practice, practice, practice. I get better every time and closer and closer to a full range HSPU. @JB - Thanks for the update. I'm glad Drogba finally ended his dry spell in the Stoke game. I was getting worried about him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaryStella Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 rob - for what it's worth when i first started doing kipping pullups I used to drop off the bar after each one. As you get strong and your kip gets better you will be able to connect them so don't feel bad about. I still do that when i get tired in a wod with a high number of pullups. It is faster and less straining for me to just drop of the bar and restart then hanging there resetting the kip. everything is starting to look good on here!

Rob PMFF Posted April 6, 2011 Author Share Posted April 6, 2011 Yeah, I kinda was able to do that today during warm up. 04/06/2011 Warm up:10 Pull ups (was able to chain a few 2's together with kipping)10 Push ups10 GHD sit ups10 Air squats (I always want to say Air biscuits...lol I crack myself up...)10 Hip Extensions30 Double under attempts (Not so much) WOD:For Total Reps: (8 rounds of 20 sec on 10 sec off per exercise)Tabata Sit ups (abmat)Tabata Hip Extensions (My hamstrings were cramping up so bad during this! )Tabata Mountain Climbers (Left + Right = 1 Rep)Tabata Double Unders (I did Singles and divided by 3)Total Reps: 375 Fuck me in the goat ass this was hard!

MaryStella Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 see your getting the kipping connect already! I started doing it in the warmup and then during wods when i start out fresh for each round i do it and then just drop down to singles when i can do it anymore. I mentally keep reminding myself to push off the bar because that is usually where i screw it up. And your right tabata anything is the shit! But it does make you fast and strong!

Rob PMFF Posted April 11, 2011 Author Share Posted April 11, 2011 04/11/2011 Warm up:Run 400 M5 pistols per leg7 pull ups (used green band)5 hand stand push ups WOD:20 min to find 3 rep max for Overhead Squats85 lbs (3 reps), I tried 95 lbs, but only did it once...a major part of what is holding me back seems to be my right wrist...a lot of pain on the thumb side of it, which forced me to drop the 95 lb after only doing it once. If it wasn't for this, I think I could do a bit more weight. Even the wrist wraps don't help that much. 5 rounds for time of -4 push ups4 ring dips (used blue band)4 hand stand push ups (I can tell I'm getting better at these, but the ROM is still pretty small)8 Kettle bell swings (55 lbs)Time - 7:51 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrilliumFortnight Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 Nice work, liking the overhead squat! Sorry to hear your thumb is holding you back from doing more with them, hope it gets fixed up soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob PMFF Posted April 15, 2011 Author Share Posted April 15, 2011 (edited) Thanks. It's my wrist under my thumb, and I don't think it's going to go away. Not sure what is the root cause, but I think I'm stuck with the pain. Oh well. 04/15/2011BW: 199 lbs Man, I wasn't even planning to go today. In fact I was contemplating going to hot yoga. I haven't been there in a while, and I feel like I need to get my stretch on. But I made the mistake of looking at a facebook page rife with witty crossfit oriented slogans. So I said to myself "Just go, ya lil bitch. You'll hate yourself later if you don't." Warm up:Run 800 M"Ultimate OHS stretch" hold for 2 minshoulder mobility 2 min each arm10 kip swings10 empty bar overhead squat10 burpees WOD:10 min AMRAP -15 bar facing burpees15 Overhead Squats (65 lbs)10 pull ups (used green band )Rounds - 2 + 8 burpees I think I should have done better on this. Before I started, I thought I would get at least 3 rounds. But, this morning I feel like every joint on the right side of my body hurts. Probably from yesterday. Plus I'm probably more fatigued than I realize from doing many of the same movements yesterday. Ballz. Edited April 15, 2011 by Rob PMFF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob PMFF Posted April 15, 2011 Author Share Posted April 15, 2011 Yeah, I just hope I'm not overdoing it sometimes. Looking at the WOD's posted on the website is like someone sticking their chin out at you and daring you to hit them...It's hard to resist.

Not sure what that was all about Very strange. Felt like I could have gone heavier on the power cleans. Rx was 155. Couldn't have gone that high though. Maybe 120 - 125.

Rob PMFF Posted April 22, 2011 Author Share Posted April 22, 2011 04/22/2011 Warm up:Run 400 Mpractice power cleans, toes to bars, and wallballs WOD:20 Min AMRAP -5 Power Cleans (115 lbs)10 Toes to Bar15 Wallball Shots (20 lbs at 10 ft) Results - 5 full rounds + 5 Power cleans + 6 Toes to Bar My shoulders hurt so bad I can't even describe it. They still hurt this morning from Wednesday's WOD. Now it's worse. Really tough WOD today. (Scaled version of Sectional 11.5, Rx was 145 lbs) At the end, I wasn't really tired in a cardiovascular sense, but my skeletal muscles were so fatigued that they were useless. It was kind of a strange paradox. I wasn't winded and my heart wasn't racing, but my legs and arms were just done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
