subbed hang power cleans @ 75# for deadlifts b/c of my lower back. rounds 1-4 ring dips with diminishing rom towards the end. i tried to touch bicep to top of ring each time. rounds 5-6 started using skinny purple band. rounds 7-10 switched to thicker purple band. total time: less than 40 but more than 35 :) i definitely got to work on my ring dips today!
Event 2: Max L-sit for time (1 attempt) Max distancesoftball throw (2 attempts) Max distance handstand walk (1 attempt)
Event 3: 1 rep max weighted chest-to-bar pull-up for load (2 minutes) 1 rep max snatch for load (2 minutes) 2 weighted water jugs carry for distance in 60 seconds
I'm liking the programming so far. Varied and functional for sure!
A lot of people on facebook or games site were complaining that swimming was "technical" and not a good test of fitness. (Not sure if they've read crossfit's definition in 100 words, apparently not cause it includes "Swim") Handstand walks are way more technical than swimming.
I ♥ the Games wods! Those are some fun events - totally new and totally different from any "normal" wod. Events 2 & 5 are like feats of strength and very similar to some of the cash-outs Cori makes up. :)
People (those that choose to comment on posts) sure get upset when something besides "typical" workouts show up. Have they forgotten about "broad time and modal domains"?
Big Dawgs: 225 / 185, ring dips
ReplyDeletePorch: 205 / 155, ring or bar dips
Pack: 185 / 135, bar dips
Pups: 135 / 95, bar or box dips
DL: Your back position is more important than your pack position. What is the heaviest weight listed that you can move well?
Dips: Do the most advanced dip you can do with proper form and range of motion. Rings, Bar, Box, with or without bands - get full r.o.m.
Go Brooke. Looks just like my jumps
