  • 2011 CF Open WOD #5 Workout

    2011 CF Open WOD #5

    20min AMRAP

    5 Power cleans 145/100 (MOD: 70#)
    10 Toes 2 bar
    15 Wallballs 20/14

    7 rounds + 11 reps

    These open wods keep sucking more and more! Cleans were heavy enough. I don't have the speed I want to go heavier yet. New project, 10 wall balls every day in warm up to get more efficient with the 14# (ie, stop hitting myself in the face and stop throwing air balls).

  • Countdown Workout

    Pre-WOD: Work up to a heavy snatch triple-( 3 reps, touch & go)
    -finish with 1 O/H Squat - did #45, #55, #65, #65

    WOD: 12 Minute Clock:
    -50 Wall Ball Shots (12 #)
    -40 T2B (21 pseudo T2B, 9 GHD, 20 situps)
    -30 Burpees
    -20 HSPU
    -max reps (Ground to Overhead) in time remaining (#115/85)

    *record weight and reps of (Ground to Overhead) for scoring

    Made it through 12 HSPU's. The burpees slow me down big time.

  • 2011 CF Open WOD #5 Workout

    2011 CF Open WOD #5

    20min AMRAP

    5 Power cleans 145/100 (MOD: 85#. We were advised to do 85% of 1RM, so I used my 1RM from September of 100 lbs)
    10 Toes 2 bar (still working on kip, but most of them were K2Es-- stayed on the bar and off the floor. Who-hoo!)
    15 Wallballs 20/14

    5 rounds + 16 reps

    85# felt heavy but just about right. Pleased with T2B progress. Will be working with Kelly Freeburn to improve Wallballs-- better efficiency of energy.

  • Countdown Workout

    Pre-WOD: Work up to a heavy snatch triple-( 3 reps, touch & go)
    -finish with 1 O/H Squat - did #45, #50 (shared bar with two other gals)

    WOD: 12 Minute Clock:
    -50 Wall Ball Shots (#12/#10)
    -40 T2B (not to slow myself down I did 40 situps as I know GHD would tire me out a bit)
    -30 Burpees
    -20 HSPU (pike)
    -max reps (Ground to Overhead) in time remaining (#115/85) Tried doing #85 but I could only power clean, so I went down to #75 and did 2 reps

    *record weight and reps of (Ground to Overhead) for scoring

    2 points/reps total

  • Push Press 7 sets of 3 reps Workout

    Push Press 7 sets of 3 reps:
    (M/ 39/ 135 lbs)
    Quick warm up, pre warmed up at home so did lots of DUs and some quick stretching
    I started light and just kept going up steadily:
    45 lb bar x 10, starting with strict press, then push press
    95 lbs x 4 push press concentrating on keeping legs tight and NO REBEND
    115 lbs x 3 (started to wear the wrist wraps)
    WOD:
    125 lbs x 3
    135 lbs x 3
    145 lbs x 3
    150 lbs x 3
    155 lbs x 3
    155 lbs x 3
    140 lbs x 3

    POST WOD:
    stretched for a few minutes and went into box jumping and double unders
    I stated doing higher rep 24" box jumps for technique and to get a little gassed/ conditioning
    I did the 24" box jumps for 3 sets
    then I brought in the step boxes to make the box much higher.
    I did about 5 sets of HIGH box jumps as singles followed by DUs
    Then I did a very fast stretch and went home.

  • Jackie and Split Jerk Workout

    Split Jerk 1-1-1-1-1 (60-80- 90 fail -back to 80 - 85-90-95) 15# PR

    Then,

    “Jackie”

    1000m row
    50 Thrusters (MOD: 35#)
    30 Pull ups (MOD: green band)

    Split Jerk should probably be much higher (Burt said to aim for 60% over shoulder press - so 115-ish),. Failed at 90, so dropped down to focus on form and worked back up to it. I ended up getting to 95# (15# PR), so I'm happy with the progress. I probably could've gone a little higher but we were running short on time.

    Broke Thrusters into 10's, used a green band for pullups (because I forgot to set up a purple one and was so tired I didn't care much, lol). Realized after the wod that I only did 35#, the person in the heat ahead of me had 10's on the bar. OOPS. Next time to 45# and purple band.

  • "Jackie" and Split Jerk Workout

    Split Jerk 1-1-1-1-1 (75-85-95-105-115-3 fails at 125)

    Then,

    “Jackie”

    1000m row (my rower had a bad battery, so I used Elizabeth's time)
    50 Thrusters 45#
    30 Pull ups (ring rows. I tried using a band, but my arms were shot from the split jerks and thrusters)

    13:36 (Not happy)

    Note: Need to get under the bar quicker on the split jerk. 35# PR
