Brett Marshall - shoulder press to failure, push-press to failure, and then, push-jerk to failure. [video]
Posted by lauren at November 18, 2006 5:11 PM
This will be perfect for me tomorrow. Yeah running!!!
Time to beat Rob again...muahaha. I'm thinkin this will require steel toes.
as a friend and fellow warrior, that video gives a very small glimpse into Brett's (AFT's) determination, coachability and perseverence all in one
i speak as one but i know others will see, he is a large asset to the CF family b/c of these qualities
what i have seen for years, everyone gets to experience, i am proud and humble
Coach,
Asking for another shoulder press after a push jerk failure? You're sooo funny.
Is the CFWU supposed to be done on running WOD'S?
I can't believe AFT made the WOD picture, that is too funny.
OPT, so are you gonna kiss him now?
Just started back yesterday for first time in 6 weeks. Can't even explain how good i feel after only one day back on X-fit.
is this kinda like a max effort day where you rest as much time as you need or do you try to finish all 3 as fast as you can with a running clock?
chris, run as fast as you can and rest as much as you need to, keep time for the runs and rest seperately. that way when you do it next time you will have something to judge yourself from.
Chris S:
Finishing all three as fast as you can would make it a 2400m run and not 3x800m.
Coach said rest. So I am going to. It would be useful, however, if Coach would tell the group how long to rest. Then we'd eliminate these questions and have a more accurate gauge of effort. I plan on resting for 1 minute past after my breathing returns to normal.
I will also do the CFWU first. It gets me ready for effort.
90 seconds of jogging or walking is a pretty typical rest interval between hard 800-meter runs.
Chris S, some will rest 1:1 (length of time to do the run same as rest before next round). Some will rest 2:1 (half as much rest as the run). Some will rest a set amount of time. Some use a heart rate meter and could rest till heart rate is at 50%. Some just walk around the track once.
As said, write down how you do it so you have some benchmark to compare yourself with later.
that was a pretty pitiful showing
800m 3:55
rest 3:30
800m 4:03
rest 3:30
800m 4:13
might have something to do with the deadlifts yesterday, my glutes and lower back were a little sore. not to mention I'm about 10# heavier than when we did this last. I've got the workout dialed in just can't seem to get my eating habits right.
Travis-
Are you gaining muscle? Is your body composition changing for the better? It may be that your body is adapting to the stress that Crossfit is introducing to it. Crossfit can pack on some muscle if the conditions are favorable. When was the last time you did this WOD? 10 lbs in 6 (if you did it on Oct 5)weeks isn't unheard of. I know that I have no problem gaining that fast if my diet supports it.
This may sound crazy. What other exercises do you do, or is the WOD the only physical training done on that day?
1SG-
Just so you know, I'm standing at parade rest as I type this. Don't ask how me how I can do it, I just can.
It all depends on how you feel and what your current fitness level is. The WODs left me floored for quite a while, and that was while scaling them down. I was scoring over 300 on the APFT and still smoked to the core. Your body will adapt over time, given your diet is where it should be.
I do extra depending on how I feel. When I'm in the rear, I do 4 WODs a week after work and on the weekends, in addition to unit PT. When I'm forward, I do some cardio/sprints/HIIT in the morning, and then a WOD in the afternoon, depending on what's going on. If I can only get one in, I'll skip the cardio and go w/ the WOD.
I think you'll find that CrossFit is a good mixture of cardio and weight lifting, and may not want/need to do any more. Just make sure that you're eating right, drinking water, and getting rest days when you need them, and you'll be amazed at your improvements.
JR,
Thanks! I am trying to make this work, and trying to get as many details as I can get. We have been in the sandbox for 4 months now, and the run in the morning and the gym in the afternoon was getting a little boring.
Oh yeah, At ease!! Once again thaks for the help.
JR, unfortunatly my diet does support gaining ten pounds in 6 weeks. Just not muscle. I think I've gained pretty much all the muscle that I'm going to easily; my body comp has gotten better, but nowhere near where I'd like it. Now I've got to burn off the fat. Which theoretically shouldn't be too difficult as there is plenty of it. But the difference between theory and reality is a joke for another day.
This was a little complicated from the timing factor....do you factor in the rest time? Is there a target rest time? I finished the three rounds in a total of 14:20. I think I underestimated stamina on the first run and went a lot harder on the last two. Interesting workout...might need to hurt myself more later tho.
1SG-
The WOD is a great downrange workout. I am almost at the halfway point, and it has been my workout from the start, and once you and your joes have been XFitting for a while and get the hang of it, you won't want to do anything else. Plus, you won't spend a lot of time dong it; I easily work out a time to do it with my patrol schedule. Also, I'm one of those guys that can "naturally" max the APFT due to genetics/luck, but there were plenty of areas where I was weak and didn't know it; XFit exposed those just through the WODs. Trust me, it will pay off, not only for overall health, but when you give your guys an APFT and tape test and the difference is in the numbers. Don't forget to do the CrossFit WarmUp. In my opinion, it is an integral piece of the puzzle. Hope this helps.
Travis-
After reading your comments the other days about seeming to hit a wall with dips and then a slower time on Diane, I think that you actually may need to take a 50% week or a rest week. It sounds like your body is fatigued and especially where you are, you are going to feel the fatigue quicker. Stress of being where you are will show up in your body first before you are aware of it mentally.
Kate
I will be subbing 6 hours of cleaning out gutters, trimming grapvines, and raking leaves for the running. Proceeded by the CFWU x 3.
Kate
Probably a stupid question, but what consists of the CFWU? I currently do a "continuous" warm-up of high-knee skips, hk runs, butt-kicks, backpedal, lunges, "athletic position" carioca, "a-p" shuffles, and 2 20 yard sprints from "ready position". Any help or a link to see the CFWU would be appreciated. Thanks.

1SG / Will,
Crossfit is slowly gaining popularity here in Afghanistan as well. The best part is the time and intensity. Those are hard to match with any other type of workout.
Now we just need to get some rings.
Legs are still a little wobbly from yesterday and I just finished a 4 day bout with the an intestinal bug.

excellent video, great work Brett.
It was much easier for me to spot the differences between the push press and the push jerk.
Jake #24:
CFWU is in the FAQ of the site. Soooo...yeah, dumb question. :)
didnt feel too good. 3 800's in 13:30. Took about 2 min rest between. Afterwards did 50 pull ups(full range, been cheating some), 50 full range dips(haha), Got some help on clean form. Feelin alot better on the motion now
Great job, Bret! The other day, I did push jerks and i hit my chin when I pushed the bar. Should I tilt my head back? push the bar forward? Any suggestions would be greatley appreciated! Thanks
15 mile easy run, 2:22 (first 9, 1:38; last 6, 44 min.) Taped my arches and soleus and felt great! I'm ready for the marathon, 7 weeks to go!!!!
I am running the disney marathon raising money for the lukemia/lymphoma society, as many of my friends parents and clients have or had some form of cancer. If any one's interested in donating or interested in doing a distance event through team in training, here is my website.

Adam- My rings are currently en route (Tyler Hass's Power Rings). I brought a set with me downrange, but the Army lost them with the majority of my team's duffels. Once my rings are here, my setup will be pretty much complete minus the rope and rower. Then, "Crossfit ASR Cheyenne" might be the most forward-deployed unsactioned XFit facility in the world. We aren't even on a FOB, just a little 200x300 meter outpost. Best-kept secret in Iraq. Happy Crossfitting!

Won't rest so much next time, unless of course, my 800s get faster, in which case I'll need it.
First week with x-fit. Excellent program!
My legs were killing me BEFORE the run. Turned in 3:15 - 3:43 - 3:42. Walked 400m between runs.
a good approach is to set a timer to 4min and take off every time the alarm sounds. That way your rest is based on how fast you finish. if it takes you 3:30 to run an 800 than you only get 30sec rest before you take off again.
I want to be like Coach when I grow up. Who wouldn't want to train under him. Time for another Cert,

5:00 rest between efforts.
My best so far this year.
One of these days I am going to have to drive to a track and see how fast I can go without speed bumps, sharp turns, the 180 degree turn around and inclines. It seems like the turns slow me down more than the fatigue.

Wow! So took a long break from when I first started Xfit to now. Lost all my workout buddies with a PCS. :( So it took a little longer to get back in the swing. Today was my second set of WOD's and I am actually behind this set. My roomate and I have started to build a gym in our garage piece by piece, so it has been great to just walk right out of the kitchen and into the "gym". I plan to talk my roomate into trying it, we will see, I think he will do it out of sheer curiosity. Anyway did Diane this morning and must say it was very difficult with dumbbells and realized the need for an olympic bar and a mat for the HSPU. Will do the 800m run tomorrow.So very happy to be back at it. How could I forget it rocked this much, and hurt this much? :)
Three efforts for time of:
Run 800 meters
Subbed row 1000 meters

Played round of golf as warmup. Also my excuse for being slower this time. Wanted sub 3:50; Strategy was to try to maintain pace of 1:50/500, and let myself slack to 1:55 as I got tired, but didn't work. Next time try 1:55 pace and get stronger.

Stoked about the negative splits. My warm-up was not all that great, and I think it cost me a few seconds on the first 800.
2:44, 3 min rest, 2:54, 3 min rest, 2:49.
Runs 1 and 3 had 5-10 kt tailwind. (Failed to beat 2:36 PR.)

3:26 for final 800
Ran on treadmill at 9.0, 9.1 and then varying speeds between 9.0 and 8.0.
CFWU x 2
Subbed 3 x 1000 rows on the C2
3:53 pulling hard 1:50ish pace as long as possible. Nearly gassed at 500, had to slow it down a bit to finish.
4:11 - Different strategy - moderately hard pull (2:00 to 2:05) then sprint last 175 meters
4:15 - Gradually accellerating from start to finish, beginning at a 2:20 pace finish at 1:45. Probably increased speed a bit too slowly. Still left gasping at the end.

Off of my pr (2:40) significantly. It looks wierd to run faster on the second round but there was a strong head wind on the first and third runs, and subsequently, a tail wind on the second.

these look like my mile times from 30 years and 60 pounds ago BUT, i ran them without walking which is a PB in and of itself. i definitely could not have done this when i started crossfit almost 3 months ago or when we did it last time on 10/05.
2:45, 2:51, 2:51
Rested for the same amount of time as each of the first two sets took.
wu: 800 meter jog, much less structured than last time this popped up
wod: 3:15, 3:09, 3:02, descending splits but slower than last time-blaming it on the lazy warmup

catching up on these I missed last week. Looking forward to this one. Subbed C2 1000m rows.
3 sets wu -- sq 15, abroller, hanging leg lifts, pullups, dips x 10
3x 1000m rows which were crazy good workout. I was laying out on the concrete driveway of my house gasping and watching the finches nest in my house.

5 mins rest in between.
Today (actually done on 11/21)
1/3 cfwu - squats
3:09, 3:17, 3:23
with :45 less rest (used 4:15 rest in between for almost a 1:1 ratio). This seems hard to believe given that I was sporadic for a while on WoD's and have only recently begun hitting it hard again. But I'll take it. Now, need to get the times down to at least one or two sub 3 mins.
