Slideshow for "push press" and "push jerk" won't load for me. Any other links or descriptions handy? Comment #1 - Posted by: kevindhodges at August 22, 2005 7:20 PMWhat is the downside of using a Smith machine for these exercises and those we did today? To my mind it allows me to lift a higher weight with a reduced risk of injury, which has to be good. I'm sure there's a strong counter-argument, does anyone know what it is? Comment #2 - Posted by: Matthew Townsend at August 22, 2005 7:29 PMwhat are the specifics of the shoulder press? Comment #3 - Posted by: Andy at August 22, 2005 7:40 PMso what's the difference between a push press and a shoulder press? Comment #4 - Posted by: dan at August 22, 2005 7:40 PMDon't use a Smith machine--the value in these exercises is largely in their athletic nature. Using a Smith machine locks you into a plane of motion that is unnatural for the movements. In short, you are losing benefits AND you will probably eventually develop knee, hip, back or shoulder problems from the Smith's forced up-and-down motion. A good rule of thumb is to always use barbells, dumbells, or kettlebells for all of your weight work. Comment #5 - Posted by: PaulM at August 22, 2005 7:46 PM"What is the downside of using a Smith machine for these exercises and those we did today? To my mind it allows me to lift a higher weight with a reduced risk of injury, which has to be good." You will not be stabilizing the weight yourself, which is a main part of the benefit. It would be better to use a lighter weight that you can perform the exercise with great form, and still get the benefit of core stabilization, than to use the Smith machine. Another downside of the smith machine is that it locks the path of the barbell into a straight course, whereas your body's natural motion isn't exactly a straight line. This has been shown to cause injuries in the shoulder girdle. So, just drop the weight a bit, and get the full benefit! Comment #6 - Posted by: Jesse Woody at August 22, 2005 7:46 PMsorry, I must have been typing at the same time! Comment #7 - Posted by: Jesse Woody at August 22, 2005 7:47 PMMatthew, I think that the argument against using a Smith machine is that your muscles are missing out on the stabilizing and balance work that they otherwise would get with the traditional barbell versions of yesterday and todays WOD. The traditional barbell lifts are more functional and realistic movements IMO, for example the back squat is analagous to the fireman's carry. On the Smith machine the range of motion is limited since you don't have to worry about the weight moving forwards or backwards (only up & down). Whereas if you are fireman's carry a person you really need to balance that body weight else you could do a faceplant with all that body coming down on you. It's been argued that kettlebells or other odd type objects (Strongman) are beneficial in developing those stabilizing muscles too. I think that weightlifting gurus (which I am not) would probably argue that doing more weight on a Smith machine is not safer and may even be promoting bad form and technique.
kevinhodges Thanks everyone. Points taken. Comment #10 - Posted by: Matthew Townsend at August 22, 2005 8:32 PMOoh la la, I'm getting that warm, fuzzy feeling...love doing the presses! Comment #11 - Posted by: Jon at August 22, 2005 8:59 PMMatthew, Also read the following (especially David Werner's and Coach's posts on this page): shoulders in ears, people! Coach's words: "'How', you might ask, 'would someone injure themselves lifting overhead?' By lifting overhead with an inactive shoulder is one obvious answer. When lifting overhead, working to put the shoulder in your ear protects the shoulder. I first learned this as a young gymnast." Do it(head nod)...do it. Comment #13 - Posted by: ediddy at August 22, 2005 10:15 PMBW: 165lbs. Kevinhodges I had the same problem till I downloaded a java program and it fixed it Jess Woody I have a Free Spotter that the bar hangs on ropes. when you take up the weight it works in all directions for all the benifits. If you fail in a lift you just let go and it hangs in the air where you left it. Live strong Comment #15 - Posted by: Hooger at August 23, 2005 12:17 AMGreat website Valley CrossFit, looks you have some fun toys to play with up there also. Comment #16 - Posted by: Andrew at August 23, 2005 1:27 AMThanks John, this link that suggests that Smith machines can actually be quite dangerous, says it all: Thanks CJ for the tip on looking at the presses video. Comment #18 - Posted by: FrankF at August 23, 2005 2:41 AMWod pretty poor effort today, just felt ordinary Today BW 81kg weights in kilos, I did split jerks cause i'm practicing for the oly lifting course MP - 40, 45, 47.5, 50, 52.5 Bench press 70x3x3 Looks like a fun day I look forward to it. Question is everyone using the same hand spacing for all lifts? I was planning on using the grip I do cleans with. Thanks. Comment #21 - Posted by: allen yeh at August 23, 2005 4:34 AMYo Philly! I am a few days behind - will catch this WOD on Thurs Comment #22 - Posted by: Jerry Hill at August 23, 2005 4:36 AMBwt: 117 SP: 85/95/105/115/120 Too distracted and tired to safely put up more weight. Comment #23 - Posted by: kelly moore at August 23, 2005 4:45 AMQuestion... I have done seated military presses for years with no resulting shoulder problems, and it is a rom that I find easy and comfortable to complete. People have always tried to get me to do them from the front saying they are safer. What is the feeling from crossfit? Today's WOD doesn't specify...behind or in front of the neck? Standing or sitting? Comment #24 - Posted by: pwoodruff at August 23, 2005 5:07 AM40 x 5 Worked my way up to 160 lbs. max. Failed at 165. Every movement from the floor. Comment #26 - Posted by: Ted Zink at August 23, 2005 5:24 AMPHILLY was an awesome time (still hurtin) I'm going to go for this one w/o the smith machine. Should be a fun one. Comment #27 - Posted by: Jeff at August 23, 2005 5:34 AMPwoodruff, you aren't always going to have a bench around to sit on and support your back so from a functional perspective, you will want to go with standing presses. Not to mention you can't do push press and push jerk while seated. As far as behind the neck or in front, I always found BTN uncomfortable on my shoulders and have also been advised that it is less safe than in front (don't have references to hand but will try to find them if you want). For technique cues have a look at the vid below (was linked above earlier but deleted in a clean up I guess): http://www.crossfit.com/cf-video/Presses.wmv Cheers, kempie Comment #28 - Posted by: kempie at August 23, 2005 5:46 AMBW: 165# all weight in lbs. SP: 50, 60, 70, 85, 95 Lost my nerve on a couple of the lifts. No safe way / place to bail. Also need to work on JP form; don't think i was getting low enough because i my arms weren't quite locked once i hit the ground. Comment #29 - Posted by: john v. at August 23, 2005 6:02 AMSP: 95, 105, 115, 120, 125(fail) -Finished with some pull-ups & push-ups. Comment #30 - Posted by: David B. at August 23, 2005 6:09 AMCFwu then, SP- 115/125/135/145/155 Everything went pretty smoothly, I probably could have used 10lbs more on each set. But I had nothing to go off of... Never done this workout before. Comment #32 - Posted by: Manny P at August 23, 2005 7:24 AMWhat does it mean to do 1-1-1-1-1 Thanks Comment #33 - Posted by: worm at August 23, 2005 7:39 AMworm: You got it the first time . . . one rep, add more weight, one rep, add more weight. This pattern doesn't show up in the WOD very often (so no need to worry about the lack of "cardio"); it's a "max effort" kind of day . . . trying to build up to a true all-out 1-rep-max as the last lift in each of 5 efforts per movement. Comment #34 - Posted by: davidjwood at August 23, 2005 7:52 AMSP 135-165-175-185-190 worked up to 220, i think i could have done more, im not sure if my technique on the push jerk was as good as it could have been. it felt like i was using my shoulders to push more than getting under the bar and pushing it up with my legs. is that right? Comment #36 - Posted by: jeremiah at August 23, 2005 8:18 AM2nd day of a technical WOD. Whats up tomorrow, FGB?? Comment #37 - Posted by: Wayne at August 23, 2005 8:36 AMbw 165 bw 165 press 115 SP PJ Will be away for a couple days as I have a comp this coming saturday. Steveo Body weight 84kg SP: 45 - 55 - 65 - 70 - 75(fail) Good day out. Haven't shoulder pressed in years so happy with 70kg. Should have looked at the PP Max Effort day so I could have at least matched PR(77.5)but will get it next time. Have not done PJ before and it is a lot subtler than expected. My body really wanted to PP but I made sure to reinforce with a PJ before dropping the weight. Can't believe that I am push-pressing same load as I am front squatting (both held back at the moment by my ability to clean the bar). Fun WOD Cheers, kempie
Steveo Comment #42 - Posted by: steven stackpole at August 23, 2005 8:49 AMGood luck with your comp Steveo! Are you up for another strongman event?? Cheers, kempie Comment #43 - Posted by: kempie at August 23, 2005 8:49 AMKnock 'em flat, Steveo! Nice work Valley CF! Way to spread the love in SoCal. Shoulder Press: 95lbs, 115lbs, 125lbs, 135lbs (fail), 125lbs Shoulder Press: 40#, 40#, 40#, 40#, 40# Push Press: 45#, 45#, 45#, 45#, 45# Push Jerk: 30#, 30#, 30#, 30#, 30# I finished up with some assisted pull-ups, jump rope practice, & stretching. Comment #46 - Posted by: Leanne at August 23, 2005 9:17 AMThanks for the response Kempie. Your points make sense. Reading that, seeing the video then re reading coachs instructions again, it all became clear. Duh! The basic press is the same all the way through, but the second and third movements are slightly different allowing more weight to be used, hence coach's request to increase the load on each of the 15 sets, not just within the individual exercise; your end #age of the sh press is at least the starting #age of the push press; then your end weight of the push press is at least the starting #age of the push jerk! Anyways... sh press; 125, 135, 140(f), 135, 135 All weights taken from the floor. Tried to go up by 20 lbs each lift. Felt a little tired so was unable to get a PR. 3rd WO today. This workout was too easy. When you are a physical specimen like big darryl is you really need to do allot more. I did this WOD as Rxd three times in a row. Here is my load. "Big Darryl" needs to learn how to spell "CrossFit" and "a lot" while following the instrx for the WOD.
huh, i didnt know the tough guy convention was coming to town. cfwu x3 WOD: tried split jerks on the first two jerks, but i didnt feel comfortable w/ them...probably because i never do them. anyway, switched to regular push jerk and felt better. need to work on those splits. swim WOD later (B4 if the pool has a brick, otherwise, D1) as well as bar muscleup work tonight.
I rode 20k home from work (cycling) and the did the WOD Live strong! Comment #53 - Posted by: Hooger at August 23, 2005 10:39 AMSP 65-75-85-90-95 where is Sue A. Comment #54 - Posted by: Katie Jo at August 23, 2005 10:57 AMPerformed 3 sets of 5 reps of 1.5pood KB bent presses each arm. Tehn 3 sets of 5 reps of 2KB military press, push press, then push jerk. Cant wait to get a 2pood KB. Warmed up with 2 hours of BJJ at the academy. Comment #55 - Posted by: Ben E. at August 23, 2005 11:39 AMin pounds Shoulder press - 95, 105, 115, 125, 130 140 is my PR for push press from the previous push press 1RM day. Couldn't match it today. New to the push jerk movement so did a bit of practice with a pipe and empty OL bar and went light. Comment #56 - Posted by: EMelton at August 23, 2005 11:46 AMSP - 135,145,165,175,185 I really don't have much confidence in my PJ yet. Especially with no bumpers. I feel like I could do more, but don't want to get kicked out of the gym if I drop the weight from up high. Comment #57 - Posted by: Sergio C. at August 23, 2005 12:03 PM124,129,131.5,134,136.5 A day behind. Did the O'course in 10:34, a little slow because it was damp and slick, then some breakfalls. Then did OHS 65-85-95-115-125 I had vowed to take a week of rest...then you start dropping the max-effort days (which I love). Skipped yesterday because of a busted-up knee. Thought I'd give today a go... Shoulder Press: 85#, 95#, 105#, 110#, 115# (at this point, my wrist was hurting a bit, but I said, eh, what the hell...) Push Press: 125# at that point, I had to quit, it's already been a month since I sprained my wrist, and I tweaked it pretty good...ugh. Otherwise, fun times :D Comment #60 - Posted by: Jesse Woody at August 23, 2005 12:41 PMShoulder Press: 95#/105#/115#/135#/145#FAIL Had no shoulder press 1RM on record BW -172 First time Comment #62 - Posted by: Danny Boy at August 23, 2005 12:53 PMshoulder press - 95-105-115-125-135 I really need to work on my form with the olympic lifts. I just am not dropping underneath well enough. Comment #63 - Posted by: Patrick at August 23, 2005 1:32 PMMax only and all from floor. I will go higher when I can clean more weight First post: Question, should I lower the weight slowly after each rep or is it the movement designed to drop the weight from the top? Comment #65 - Posted by: corey at August 23, 2005 1:51 PMhey mike C., for all you retards you do spell allot like this. Need a dicitonary and english lessons?? Comment #66 - Posted by: Mike C. is a loser at August 23, 2005 2:06 PMSP - 65, 65, 95, 105, 115 The PJ was the hardest. Balance and form began to really suffer on PJ and towards the end of PP. Comment #67 - Posted by: Ronnie at August 23, 2005 2:16 PMsorry, typo. PF=PJ in that earlier post. Comment #68 - Posted by: Ronnie at August 23, 2005 2:18 PMCisco CrossFit team (Bricker and Brand for today) executed WoD as follows: (in lbs) Brand-- Hope you guys don't mind....just wanted to say I got my first muscle ups today. Did yesterday's WOD since I'm a day behind, then worked on MU form until I did one. Then just so I knew it wasn't a fluke, did two consecutive MU's. Congrats Tom! Bodyweight 140lbs Still can't get bodyweight overhead. I feel like I've stalled out on the overhead lifts. Hopefully I can break through this, because its really starting to annoy the hell out of me.

Steveo, I hear you about lowering the weight, but that's the price I pay for having no room for a home gym and the wife will not park her princess mobile outdoors. As for the "allot" comments: As it was used in the post above, "allot" was incorrect. As in "I can do allot more." Should have been a lot. Two words. Always has been; always will be.

Comment #149 - Posted by: B_White at August 24, 2005 8:16 PMSP: 115/135/155/185/195 That was all I had. Darn near every muscle in my body hurt starting the workout, from DOMS, but I don't think it hurt my performance. That always amazes me. Comment #150 - Posted by: Barry Cooper at August 25, 2005 9:37 AMFirst WOD back after rehabbing a pulled hammy. Did this one 8/25. as RX'd: lost form badly on last two failed lifts, kept reverting to push press instead of push jerk. would have liked to have gotten at least two bills.

Jeremy Comment #163 - Posted by: Jeremy at August 26, 2005 4:40 PMBW = 71kg All weight in KG except for Push Jerk. Had problems doing the second dip on the Push Jerk at heavy weight, either it was a confidence issue with it being the first time or a case of MHF. Need to work on the Jerk!
