Ohh, my wrists are quivering already. I can see this taking over an hour!

oooh this looks fun! tomorrow is my scheduled rest day. will make it up on saturday, can't wait!

Do we do one set of shoulder press, followed by one set of push press, followed by one set of push jerk all with the same weight or do we split the exercises up?

If there is anyone who is having trouble with the technique differences between the 3 lifts, there's a great video in the Exercises & Demos section that shows all 3 being performed at once.

#4 Catfish,
You do all of the Shoulder Presses, then all of the Push Presses, and finish with all of the Push Jerks

just to clarify because the video isnt loading for me, the push jerk is the same as a push press, except with an extra dip, catch and extension?

just wanted to know what a push jerk is i couldn't fin it on the net. with this wod do you keep the same weight each time or try to lift sa heavy as you can

Thanks Brandon

Should all of these be done from cleans?

Cool!
I like this idea, because it will allow me to sort of like slowly progress through the workout. It's all in a logical sequence, so it should be great for novices that are trying to learn the movements and improve form. Can't wait to do it!

#6, yup but with more weight and more explosive drive.

#7, up the weight each set if you can.

#9, sure you can do that. Or just put the bar on a rack so you can easily perform the exercise without wasting energy...

I like these kinds of progressions, i.e. Back squat->front squat->OHS, or Weighted PU->strict PU->kipping pullup.

Just catching up on yesterday's session. Am posting from Australia and just did my 2nd round of pain.

24m/92kg

"Nicole" - 7rnds, 8th ran out of time on the run.
-3,2,3,3,3,3,3,2

It's a long road ahead!

so should i be working up to a max with the weight for each exercise? or is this gonna be the same weight all the way through for all 3 exercises?

you could probably do the same weight all the way through. by the time the shoulder press smokes you, you'll be ready for the push press, etc.

i just wanted to talk about creatine a little bit. i have used creatine, cycling it four weeks at a time. creatine responds well to my body, and really gives me a boost. i live in alabama so i don't take creatine during the summer. i don't take it b/c the temp. is so hot. hydration is key to creatine, and sweating and hydrating don't go hand in hand. it's better to cycle it during the winter and use the summer as a "natural" time.

Great programming... it's like Christmas come early three out of every four days!

'Till another post in the next 12 hrs...

bear,

Personally, I think taking creatine is a bad choice. I am generally against supplements all together, unless its natural like additional protein for your daily intake. I have never taken it before in all honesty but I hear that once you stop taking it, side effects kick in (since it traditionally builds water weight). It reminds me of baseball players taking steroids ... what have you got to prove? If going all natural isn't enough satisfaction for you, just be careful when taking supplements. There really isn't too much research out there to prove me wrong, but supplements can have adverse side effects depending on the person. Thoughts?

it mostly depends on what you're definition of natural is. there is creatine present in red meat, so its not like its some artificially created chemical that your body would never see otherwise. supplementing protein intake with protein powder could be called unnatural by the same logic. my advice would be if it helps you towards your goals without causing any adverse affects go for it.

and on another unrelated note...i was curious about the girls named WOD's. Obviously the guy named ones are named after fallen soldiers (which is an awesome way to remember them by the way) but do the girls names come from anywhere? are they named after anyone in particular?

Here is the tri-panel video that Brandon mentioned:

http://media.crossfit.com/cf-video/SPPPPJ155.wmv

Perfect study material for this workout.

I worked with a lot of trainers and was a nutritionist for a while; the biggest issue I saw with creatine over time was that at some point you stop... if your purpose is for a contest or to see how much your body can actually achieve, then it's not so bad of an idea because you can reach your goals and then stop... if your purpose is for your health and overall fitness, I would not suggest it.

I guess it's all about purpose.

Creatine is one of the most researched performance supplements ever. It can help with muscular endurance by giving up a phosphate to metabolized ATP (ADP) thus creating ATP which can mean one more rep. The water weight is intramuscular as opposed to subcutaneous which is hypothosized to effect microlevers thus enhancing strength. Side effects? Only if you already have bad kidneys.

Creatine is used for performance by elite athletes as much as it is for aesthetics by Arnold wanna-bees.

ok - 1 week worth of treatment, massage and rest on my left shoulder and neck. will take rest of week off, then hammer time on Monday. Can't wait to come back!

I've used creatine in the past and, at least for me, it appears to work as advertised. It really did seem to give me the ability to rip-off one or two more reps than before. As a result, because you're working that much harder on every set, you tend to make gains quicker.

Further, I took it on and off for years with no ill effects at all. (I didn't really need those kidneys, anyway--kidding, kidding....) So, at least it can't hurt you.

The only problem I found, however, is that you tend to gain water weight and you really need to hydrate like crazy. In my case, because I completely dig riding my mountain bike with my faster and skinnier buddies (i.e., sticks with lungs), increasing weight adversley affects my power-to-weight ratio on the climbs. The power I gain from the improved training effect when using creatine does not appear to compensate for the additional water weight I put on, or the additional water I'd have to carry in order to keep me hydrated on a hot day. Hence, insofar as getting dropped on the steeps pretty much sucks out loud, I'm of the opinion that creatine is a net loss for me.

Now, I guess if you're not worried about the extra weight, then it's probably going to work for you. So, if you're a bouncer, SWAT officer, T-shirt stretcher, or hot dog eating champ, have at it I say.

Zach,
This is anecdotal but back in the 30s/40s/50s they decided to name Hurricanes with girls names rather than some number because it would be easier to remember, so a similar approach was taken to the WoDs. Besides, if something leaves you on your back, out of breath and wet, well, you can see the similarities...

Completely burned out. I hope these numbers will go up. Form on PJ not great, should have done some for warm up.

Patrick, take the weight from the racks; you dont want the extra fatigue from cleaning the weight to hamper your shoulder strength.

I take about 3g of creatine and glutamine a day. I've done this for a long time and when i stop i dont see a difference. I take it because i figure i dont get much creatine through my food (i avoid red meat) so i might as well take the 3g i deplete through exercise. I dont cycle it. When i take 5 to 8 grams a day, i do notice a difference in my strength. Im stronger for longer and its very noticeable. Ive seen some people bloat horribly, and some people not have an effect at all. Experiment.

I did a similar workout the other night, although i only did max stict press and max pushpress for singles...i got 155 on the strict press and 205 on the push press. I have some work to do though, because i weigh 195 :).

What?! I thought today was going to be a rest day. That was pretty stupid...

I actually did rounds of 3 sp, 3pp, 3 jp with the O-bar to warm up and get the form down. Looks like that was a good time to do it. Can't see if the form comes as easily when I up the weight a bit.

Only had time for shoulder press and push press.

My right knee was hurting from yesterday's run, so that affected my push press numbers.

I'm pretty sure my form wasn't right on the jerk presses. I tried to make sure I followed the correct form, but it still felt like I was doing it wrong.

These types of workouts rock. It seems to be an evolving type of workout. At first you start recruiting only a few muscle groups, really pounding them with weight. With each additional exercise you recruit more and more muscle groups while still taxing the first group, really pushing the capacity on that first group. That is not even taking into account that the Push Jerk is more dynamic and explosive in nature than the previous two.

If anyone who knows what they are talking about (unlike myself) care to correct or back up my ramblings with science/experience I would greatly appreciate the learning experience.

As always thanks to the CF crew for posting these workouts everyday.

Just wanted to say that I am loving the new "Tip of the Day" format on the WOD post. Thank you for those.

There's something backwards about that picture! I think I know some people from anatnoM.

I take creatine myself and I really have never seen any ill or side effects on myself. I used to take it as they normally prescribe on the container, and I did notice a very distinctive gain in strenght, recovery and of course in weight. Not the mention having to hydrate like crazy. But that was when I was just lifting weights "a la Arnold". What I have noticed is that after a cycle, if I did not start taking it again within a few weeks, I'd just lose what I have gained and that was it.

For a few years now, I only take it for recovery purposes. I throw a scoop of it into my post workout protein drink, and I think it works wonders for me. The next day I feel fresh and ready to go for the next workout. As it was mentioned before, experiment, find out what works and stick with it. I see no problem with it.

What a delt work out. Im totaly smoked!! I've only been doing crossfit for a couple weeks, and its amazing. It feels like my whole body benifits from it, unlike BB type workouts. Thanks

Testosterone and human growth hormone are not artificial they are produced naturally by the body so by that logic they should be legal too?

If creatine enhances performance it should be in the same category as any other performance enhancing drug regardless of where it may naturally occur IMO.

WHoever has yet to attend a cert or a speciality cert--what are you waiting for? Its an experience like no other. Its like a shot to your health!

I just wanted to say thanks to all those involved in producing these instructional tidbit videos each day. They make a world of difference in technique improvement and motivation when it comes time to hit the gym.

Surely it is the mark of a true teacher that can change your technique, thereby increasing your poundage, with a simple phrase or position change.

Thanks Rip!!

Did Nicole today. Have 10 mile run tomorrow so hopefully will do this on Sunday.

On a sad note,we lost another Law Enforcement Officer last night. A Sergeant from the Broward County Sheriff's Office, Florida was shot and killed while checking out with two suspicious vehicles last night. Earlier this past week another Broward Sheriff's Deputy was seriously wound when he was shot in the face while on a traffic stop. He is fighting for his life now.

#18 MGOLD,
Thats a pretty bad example since both are naturally occuring. To promote supplementing protein (which is a synthesized form)but say creatine is bad because its not natural (which it actually is when it comes from red meat) is a bit of a hypocritical statement since as a supplement both are sythesized to some extent. Also what does baseball and steroids have to do with creatine and why does it have to be about prove anything? Muscles are about 75% water based (when Hydrated), water also assists the body in the repair and recovery of the muscle tissue, so how is supplements something that helps saturate the muscle tissue become a bad thing? The only way I know of is to not use it properly! Like anything else excess is a bad thing. Just my honest opinion and I am no DR. feel free to take off for spelling

HOW MUCH REST TIME BETWEEN SETS AND BETWEEN LIFTS SHOULD I BE TAKING? I usually take about 3-330 on max rep sort of work out days?

Bear-
Creatine helps some folks in anaerobic efforts, others appear to be non-responders. It's interesting (to me) that creatine appears to decrease oxidative stress, cortisol levels and protects against ischemic reperfusion injuries. It costs pennies to supplement and is safe. Search the message board in the nutrition section for more details.

Awesome!! I was planning on using today as a recovery day, still hurting from Wednesday, but I can't pass on this one!

I need some advice:
Does nyone have tips on how to get better at L pull ups? I've already started doing them in my warm up, i know that will help. Also i need help on linking muscle ups together. I just did my first one a week ago, so is it a strength thing or what. I can do 3 in a row but its feet to ground, i guess it more like three sindles with like 2 seconds rest.

#66: bend your knees... and kip when you get near the top. that has helped me string 5-7 muscle-ups together and beyond that, it seems to be a matter of forearm flexor/extensor endurance when transitioning (although my triceps start to blow up too). If sets of 5-7 are good enough for Rob Miller, I figure that's a pretty reasonable tick.

The idea of doing L pull-ups as part of warm-ups is brilliant. I have been doing muscle-ups as part of warmups for months, but never thought of subbing L pull-ups for regular ones. Thanks!

Not sure if fatigued from week or previous lifts but had very poor form with push-jerks. Decided to treat them as a form workout. Marked improvement towards later sets.

Just thought I would add my 2 cents to all the creatine talk.

#16 - bear
I have always felt that if your one rep max on lifts goes up while taking creatine than you are experiencing a placebo effect. Creatine will extend the time you perform a certain lift by putting more phosphate in a muscle. This allows ADP to be converted back to ATP more quickly. It does not make you stronger but will allow you to go longer.

As far as hydration, you usually need more water at first but after a few days you hit an equilibrium. I think you would be fine taking it during the summer as long as you drink plenty of water when you are cycling on.

#18 - MGold
Do you take a multivitamin? A lot of what goes in there is synthesized. It is as natural as taking creatine. Once you go off you will urinate more than usual as your body metabolizes the creatine. Out with the creatine means out with the water. You can easily lose a few pounds of water weight in a couple days.

#19 - Zach
Human growth hormone is also naturally occuring, but I would not put it in the same ball park as creatine. I do understand your point though.

#48 - Jay I
I see you thought of human growth hormone also. I do think you are being a bit unfair lumping creatine in with HGH and steroids. Creatine is not a testosterone precurser. You can also say Gatorade or other energy drinks can be performance enhancing. I think you should read a bit more about creatine before lumping it in with actual muscle building compounds. It may not change your mind but you will see it functions differently in that it allows you to do an extra rep or two.

BTW - I don't take creatine. :)

Oh ya, more more thing I wanted to say about creatine. If you are going to have a liver/kidney function test performed you should not take creatine. It will make you urinate a very high level of creatinine which can make it look like your kidneys are not functioning properly. I would also avoid it if you have kidney/liver problems.

Had to do the workout with dumbbells. I work in an office building fitness center and we don't have a single oly bar of any kind. I started to do it with an EZ curl bar, but that felt weird.
Anyway,
SP 55's
PP 60's
PJ 70's for 2 sets, then 65's

I requested a bar last week, and they told me we can't get one because they're afraid someone will swing it around and break a mirror.....I brought in a 55lb kettlebell, a 20lb medicine ball, rings, and parallettes; people look at me like I have three heads when I work out in here

#68 yeah i started dong false grip pull ups and ring dips as part of my warmup and three days later i could do a muscle up.

Wait...so the only difference between the three is the movment/techinique to get them up? Will this work anything else or just shoulders? I may just have to go with the CrossFitOmaha workout, right now my right shoulder is shot.

*QUESTION*

I missed "Nicole" yesterday, can I do "Nicole" this morning and then today's WOD this evening or will that be too much training in one day?

Woo Hoo I loved this work out!!!! I was pretty retarded though by the time I got to the gym I forgot how many sets I was supposed to do of each lol so I ended up doing 7 sets of each instead of 5.

...didn't have time for push jerks

I hate forced rest days. I'm playing in a football tournament this weekend, so I'm not training today. I skipped last night WOD as well, to keep my legs fresh. Today's WOD looks like so much fun too. I'm hoing to have to add this one (and maybe yesterday's) in sometime next week.

First WOD in 2+ weeks as one of my kids was really sick. She feels better now and the WOD felt great!

5'4", 175 lbs.

Shoulder Press: 1x135, 1x155, 1x175 (new PR), 1x185 (f), 1x175 (f)
Push Press: 3x175, 3x185, 3x195, 3x205, 3x215 (f on 3rd rep)
Push Jerk: 5x135, 5x155, 5x165, 5x175 (f on 4th rep), 5x195 (f on 4th rep)

First time ever doing push jerks. Felt weird but I liked it. New PR on shoulder press, guess this stuff works!

Hey everyone,
I have a quick off-topic question. I have a staff member that is trying to pass a fitness test. She eats well, and I have been going through some work outs for her. Can someone provide me with some suggestions on how to improve her push ups? She will fail her upcoming PT test, if I don't help her out. She is over 6ft tall, but has a very weak core, and cannot push herself off the floor.
Cheers, Rhino

I have the same question as Comment #94. How much time am I supposed to rest between each rep in a set and how much time should I rest when transitioning between exercises (ie, last set of shoulder press and first set of push press). Thanks.

form was getting better

Yesterday events conspired against me--home late, finally got back extension machine I ordered over a month ago, and it was pouring down rain--so no workout.

Today's WOD:

CFWU x3 (10 reps--nice to have back extension machine instead of using Swiss ball!)

Shoulder press (x1 rep):
30/35/40/45/50

Push press (x3 reps):
40/45/50/55/60 (failed last rep--but, hey new PB by 15 pounds!)

Push jerk (x5 reps):
35 for all five sets--never done this one before, so worked on form, which is abysmal. Definitely need more practice with this lift.

Tomorrow I have a date with Nicole.

The should. press and push press took a long time, about 20 minutes.
As I got pressed for time, I did all rounds of the push jerk in about 6 minutes.

I thought the Jerks would be easier, but after nailing the first couple reps each set, I would start to get pretty winded. Whew. They were a mix of straight push jerks and split jerks, alternating legs.

Wow, what a WOD! I have a feeling brushing my teeth tomorrow will be a chore!

First ever CrossFit workout.

Had to use the Gravitron for pull-ups to finish the warm-up sets.

SP: 115lbs. X 5
PP: (115 lbs. X 3) X 5
PJ: (115 lbs. X 5) X 2; (95lbs. X 5) X 3

Looking at other posts - it appears that we're supposed to increase the weight with each set. Makes since. First time doing a push jerk - a few practice reps with just the bar helped figure out the basic form. Rest times varied between sets from 30 sec to close to 2 minutes between 4th and 5th sets of both PP and PJ.
Finally motivated to give CrossFit a serious go after so much about it for so long.

I did this with my new found CF buddy, Josh Murphy,and believe me, it helps to work out with a partner.I thought I could go higher on the jerk press, but I was getting fatigued at that point in the workout so I had to settle...barely...for 135. Great WOD. Thanks, Josh,and Coach! BW:176 Y/A:58

I liked this. My PJ were the best ever, form-wise if not the most I have ever moved. I think the beauty of this is that the shoulders are taken out of the equation by the time you get to the last PJ, you really have to drop, cause you dont have the delt strength to muscle/press-out the weight.

What a marathon, I wasted too much time in the early round of the push press and by the time the jerks came around I was a hurtin' unit. I
could have gone heavier on the jerks but it would have been at the expense of my wrists. I'm just feeling so drained now waiting for baby I was mentally defeated before this one started.

Shoulders and wrists were beat by the end. It was amazing how much the squats took away from my PJ, I feel I definitely could have done more, but my legs were exhausted.

Changed this WOD a little to fit into my Miami training - 1 round each of the following triplet before changing hands and repeating for five total rounds:

My shoulders hurt from letting the bar down when I did my Jerks from behind the head. Aside from that this was a really fun work out for me. My shoulders are getting very strong very fast from doing the WODs for a month straight. I cannot believe these results. I can't wait to do a work out where I get to max out on Push Jerk. My old max was 209 last lacrosse season, I think it might be a little better this year. Oregon Ducks Lacrosse gonna win it all this year.

I worked up to what I thought was my max press and did 5 reps. By the time I reached the push press I felt like I was done but kept going. After that, I used the bar to get used to the push jerk, then 95 to finish off. My weight went down instead of up during the workout which probably means that I need to work on my form but I am glad that I finished.

During the 140 push-jerk set I started to feel a shooting pain in a nerve at my right wrist an inch or two below my thumb every time I lowered the bar back to my chest. This was obviously due to the large momentary increase in force pushing my wrist back. On the next set, I was concentrating on eliminating this pain and ended up failing. The pain still persisted even when I dropped back to 125 on the last set (except when I lowered the weight very slowly). Is this just a wrist strength issue or is it something else? Any advice here would be greatly appreciated.

Can't wait for everything to calm down to get back into the routine.

#186 Big Jig,

Yeah, that's what I was referring to in my post just above yours. I had some joint pain, but I felt that was tolerable. It was the nerve pain that did it for me. Not sure what to do about it. I tried keeping my wrists straight on the next set, but that is part of what caused me to fail.

Only have 125 lbs, so that's what I used for the entire workout. I don't have squat racks either, so I power cleaned the weight from the floor every set.

Male 38 60KG

SP 20kg, 30kg, 40kg
PP 30kg, 35kg, 40kg, 45kg, 50kg
SJ 45kg, 50kg, 55kg, 60kg, 65kg

NO rack so I had to clean the weight for each set. This hurt much more than I anticipated. When I had to break the SJ sets it just got worse since that meant extra cleans off the deck.

Cheers,

Kong

I know this is probably a stupid question, and off subject, on the down motion of the back squats, how far down are you supposed to go, its kinda hard to tell by the videos, are thighs parallel to the ground?

I cleaned all the weights and was hoping to do the whole thing with 135.

on the second push press when i cleaned the weight it felt like both of my shoulders tore something so i rested and continued with 115.
By the end of push press's my wrists were hurting so i just stopped. good workout though

I have a hard time believing that some people are able to do a STANDING shoulder press with more weight than they can push or jerk without using their legs.

forgot to add to my comments:

on my final rep of the push jerk i absolutely CRUSHED my nose on the up part of the lift.

bar hit the tip, almost blacked out, don't remember racking the bar, nose a bit bloody, dizzy, nauseous, WOW!

anyone else ever not get their mug out of the way?

crazy, glad the bar didn't crash down and kill me because i am in the process of buying a ton of life insurance, lol.....hope someone gets a laugh out of this!!

have a great rest day!

#235 - maybe because you only had to do 1 shoulder press rep vs. 5 push jerk reps? That's a lot more work.

Friday 8-10-07 WOD
I started light to test my sore elbow. By the way, don't ever let anyone demonstrate MMA moves on you after you've both been drinking.

Shoulder Press - 1 rep each of 95-100-105-110-115-120-125-130-135-140-145
As of a month ago my 1 rep max was only 135 healthy.
Push Press - 3 reps each of 95-105-115-125-135-145
Push Jerk - 5 reps each of 95-105-115-125-135-145

After WOD, attempted max double-unders and did 38 before I messed up. Also hit the lake later in the day for a swim.

Hi everyone,

I was wondering what would be any sort of sub for this. My ceiling is to low for the full range, and taking my fathers equipment outside is a no go. I really hate not being able to do this.

Shoulder Press: 95 - 115 - 135 - 165 - 175 (fail)

Push Press: 135 - 155 - 165 - 175 - 185

Push Jerk: 135 - 155 - 165 - 175 - 185

Toward the end, the push jerks were starting to resemble push presses. Needed to be more violent on the drive.

Shoulder Press: 115 - 115 - 115 - 115 -115
Push Press: 115 - 115 - 115 - 115 - 115
Push Jerk: 115 - 115 - 115 - 115 - 115

Shake on a few of the push jerks but getting better.

I also really enjoyed this, though it took forever, and my most limiting factor was also wrist pain due to to much flexion.

Obviously, I see the progression from least effective to most effective lift here. From now on, if I need to get something overhead, it's pushjerks for me. If I need to get my chin over a bar, it's kipping pullups as well.

Thanks Coach.

I just looked up my old push jerk for 5 reps maximum and found out that I PB'd today's workout so I'm pumped about that even though I cut it short due to wrist pain and mental exhaustion.

My gym was closed for "cleaning". So I went to the track and did Murphy with a ten # pack. Time 49:30

ROM's
2 mile run (was going to be a 5k, but PFS in knee started acting up)

WOD
135 all the way thru.

Continuing to take it easy w/the lifts. Went w/135 all the way thru. Going lite still enraged the disk issue I got, But it feels so good when I'm lifting. Now it's time to use Motrin and Brews to fix that disk.

Get some, Go again!

Wanted to hit this one hard as I have always struggled with lifting wights on my shoulders. Given the my home garage gym doesn't have a full compliment of weight plates, I cut the rest periods down to 15-20 secs between each set to go for as much fatigue as possible. Gotta say I was amazed how well I coped. This is fairly and squarely due to the 6 weeks I have been doing CF.

Wow, can't believe how fatigued I was when I got to the Push Jerks. Couldn't imagine doing 5 reps at 145, even though I could do the push press at that weight, so I went down. Even then, my form was pretty poor, so I dropped down where I knew my form would be better.

Could have done more on PP and PJ but rushing, breaks minimal and still no squat rack to ease weights off and onto.

Spent 3 hours hunched over pc prior - arrived with neck and shoulder pain.

Push jerk to 205#

A couple of failed reps included. Push-press and jerk required substantial and aggressive commitment.

Messed this one up a little bit, thought it was all for singles...didn't matter much by the jerks, my wrists were shot.

Did @ home so did FSC to get weight to the rack position...all were EXCELLENT.

Pressed up to 145 easy, barely missed 155.
Push press up to 185, not bad.
Jerked 185, did a couple.

Tried Zercher sandbag walk, got a minute plus a couple seconds...can't wait to try again.

Hit the press progression from a while back finally

Pretty happy with this - some nice breakthroughs. Ran out of pop for the jerks though - too far from breakfast.
