Training programs
  • 2 mile light jog - on treadmill Workout

    2 mile light jog, around 10 minute per mile pace

  • Mainsite WOD - 091912 Workout

    21-15-9 reps of:
    225 pound Deadlift
    135 pound Overhead squat

    I was able to do the Deadlifts Rx'd, but the Overhead Squats I had to lower down to 95 pounds. Once again, this proves my shoulders and upper body are significantly weaker than my lower body! I had to break the sets down into groups of 5, but I was able to get through everything with the scaled upper body portion.

  • Mainsite WOD - 091612 Workout

    For time:
    185 pound Clean and jerk, 30 reps

    Instead of attempting a 10lb PR for the first time, I scaled this workout down to a Heavy Grace weight of 135. Although it wasn't pretty, I was able to get through the 30 required reps, but at some points I needed to break my sets all the way down into groups of 2.

  • Mainsite WOD - 090812 Workout

    Eight rounds for max reps of:
    115 pound Hang power clean, 20 seconds
    Rest 10 seconds
    115 pound Push press, 20 seconds
    Rest 10 seconds

    I'm fairly certain I did this wrong. Specifically, instead of doing one set of Hang Power Cleans followed by one set of Push Presses, I did all eight rounds of Hang Power Cleans, then all eight rounds of Push Presses. Being upper body exercises, I had to scale these exercises down to 95 pounds, and even then I was unable to push through the entire 20 seconds of each exercise.

    Despite lowering the weight, and not being able to get through a full 20 seconds of each exercise, my shoulders were absolutely SMOKED after completing this (for days on end).

  • Mainsite WOD - 901212 Workout

    For time:
    Row 500 meters
    50 Wall ball shots, 20 pound ball
    Row 400 meters
    40 Wall ball shots, 20 pound ball
    Row 300 meters
    30 Wall ball shots, 20 pound ball
    Row 200 meters
    20 Wall ball shots, 20 pound ball
    Row 100 meters
    10 Wall ball shots, 20 pound ball

    I really tried to keep a good tempo up on the rowing, with a dipswitch setting around 8. From there, I kept the wall balls in sets of 10, but couldn't perform all of them at once.
