Comment #3 - Posted by: Nick at September 8, 2007 7:48 PM

Thats gotta be the old dump of a gym up the road from OCS...that brings back fond memories.

Does anyone know for sure if thats the gym by OCS on MCB Quantico?

Comment #4 - Posted by: Mike_in_austin at September 8, 2007 7:50 PM

Looking forward to a good strength training day, especially since I want to get in a nice run tomorrow.

The first couple of times I did front squats I hated them, had to really lower the weight a lot and had a hard time really getting down low. Finally realized I hated them because I was forced to use better form. Over the years of weight training, running, and basketball without stretching, I had lost a lot of flexibility in my hips. When I did back squats I would just cheat and lean forward some as I got low. After a few months of really focusing on form and stretching my hips and upper leg muscles, it has become "fun" to do front squats. They remind me how important good form and flexibility are and that stretching really does help.

That there's a lot o' sets! This'll take a while. Better get to the gym early!

Comment #15 - Posted by: Buretto at September 9, 2007 3:41 AM

#12 Dustan.
Hook Grip. Rest your middle finger of the overhand onto the back of the thumb. This means the bar can balance in the fingers not in the fist.
People I know generally use this for cleans and pulls.

If you obtain a copy of "Starting Strength" by Mark Rippetoe he has diagrams and photographs that illustrate this grip. I was lent this book by a fellow crossfitter here in the UK and it is excellently written and organised, I thoroughly recommend it to anyone serious about improving their own form or coaching others.

Comment #16 - Posted by: firemanben at September 9, 2007 3:50 AM

cheers #13 firemanben,

always wanted to know but #12 dustan beat me to it. The more I do crossfit the more I love the really tough lifts like squats and deadlifts. Its not only a physical thing, but definitely a mental thing as well. If the mind isn't in it, you are never going to be able to these lifts heavy or with any benefit.

Have a good week all. I am looking forward to it.

Comment #17 - Posted by: bladeboy at September 9, 2007 5:30 AM

Just started crossfit last week. Todays 1-1-1-1..... how much weight is done for each of the 10 sets?

Comment #18 - Posted by: james at September 9, 2007 6:19 AM

UFC fights a let down last night, and I'm dectecting a pattern now that Henderson lost...

Comment #19 - Posted by: gaucoin at September 9, 2007 6:21 AM

#18 james

Start with a single rep that is comfortable. Add weight for each successive rep until you reach a max and/or fail. I typically try to achieve a new pr by about 1/2 to 3/4 through the series and often have to back off for the last couple lifts.

If you are new to the lift, I'd go relatively light w/o hitting failure. Focus on form. Watch the videos for this lift under the Exercises link. If you're working near a max, you need to be able to either dump the bar, have two spotters (one on each end of the bar), or, as a last resort, use a squat cage.

Comment #20 - Posted by: ScottH at September 9, 2007 6:27 AM

thanks for the input

Comment #21 - Posted by: Dustan at September 9, 2007 6:31 AM

You make a squat cage sound like a bad thing...

Comment #22 - Posted by: Jesse at September 9, 2007 6:34 AM

Mike_in_Austin-

That's definitely the gym from OCS. I was there in early July getting my large and small bag issue. All I really remember is that it was humid as hell in there.

You choose the weight and adjust the weight accordingly every set. Also you try to increase the weight every set (and if you absolutely can't thats fine too), so don't be afraid to go light the first few sets...we all do... That's the beauty of Crossfit. Its getting fit with workouts at YOUR ability no matter your current strength

Depth on the 130s was not great so I lightened the load to get full depth.

- Purposly performed every set extremely slow while still staying in motion. Paused for a second in the bottom position before moving upward again.

- Felt a strange sensation in my shoulder and elbow joints so didn't increase the weight further then 90Kg. Don't know if this feeling is caused by a lack in strength, technique or both (?)

Did some fooling around in the rings in between sets =D

Oh man, I'm gonna be in that gym for OCS.

Did Grace yesterday with squat cleans. I couldn't run afterwards - not because of soreness, but because I literally couldn't move my legs enough. Now you're asking me to do front squats? How ironic - they're my favorite exercise and I can't even imagine doing them today.

CFWU x3 (10 reps)

Front squats:

65 lbs
75 lbs
85 lbs
90 lbs--fail
90 lbs--shaky, but made it (PR)
85 lbs
85 lbs
90 lbs--easier than either of the other two attempts at 90

F/58/139

Found that I was letting the weight slip from the rack position slightly and slide my arms just a bit. Really kept it racked in the proper position for the last attempt and felt I could have gone at least a bit heavier using completely proper form.

Very tired....had to work a 10 hour night shift. No sleep possible before the shift; only allowed myself 2 hours this morning so I can manage to sleep tonight.

10 minute snatch set - 93L/93R. Hand switch at 5 minutes. This was as much as I could do today; left hand is taped due to a burn across the palm I acquired from thoughtlessly grabbing a hot cast iron pan handle. Ouch. Good thing there is plenty of cool water and coconut oil around - the burn seems to be healing fast.

30 minute break. During that time barefoot and beltless barbell front squats: 10x1x155.

10 minute jerk set - 83L/84R. Hand switch at 5 minutes. Maintained a stress free 16 rpm pace.

2 mile walk.

Can someone help? I had the bar on my fingertips and rolled my shoulders forward to accept the bar. The bar was sitting on my shoulders and up against my throat--almost choking me. Humerous parallel to ground, elbows up and in. Right wrist screaming--bad pain not good pain. couldn't max out as anything above 135 was really killing my wrist.

230# singles seems about right compared to my 3 rep max of 215 a few weeks ago. I think I am going about 2 inches deeper now....wonder if Rippetoe would agree ;-)

legs strong throughout. hip strength definately limiting me at the bottom of the motion, but i'm pleased with the results... never done a 1rm on front squats before, so nothing to compare it to, but my 3rm from 08/20/07 was only 115.

Comment #116 - Posted by: J-n-Longview at September 9, 2007 3:55 PM

I see a lot of people using different approaches to this workout, and just wanted to comment. My understanding is that the idea here is to do 10 singles, as close to your 1rm as possible. When I see somebody counting 135# as their first set, and then ending up over 200#, that doesn't seem to be in keeping with the intention of the WOD.
I mean obviously you can do whatever you want, but I'm betting it's more effective to be as close to your 1rm as possible on every rep. Just some food for thought.

this same question popped up within the last two weeks, and i wrote a nearly identical comment to yours. absolutely, after warming up, that first set should be a 1rm.

in my personal case, i'd never even done a 135# front squat, so that's why i began there and worked up. i will certainly know better next time...

Today was a much better squat day. The wrists were killing me, mind you, but the squats felt gooooodddd.

Finished off with some handstand practice.

#75 (Hans),

I downloaded your Tabata timer, and Java, but I still for the life of me can't get it to work. I consider myself a nerd, so I may have to hang my head in shame once I am told what I need to do to get it to work.....

FS
5x65 - for form and practice
1x95
1x115
1x125
1x135 - started rounding the back a bit
1x135 - better, more aggressiveness helped
1x140 - not bad, a little rounding again
1x140

Singles FS PR = 140# with nice, below parallel depth. Next time will start with 115 (a little over 80%).

Squats -- in general are probably my weakest overall CF area. Therefore, I am going to focus on perfect form -- even if the weight needs to be lighter. Plus I have no experience with front squats.

As such, all done "butt all the way down":

1 X 105lb
1 X 110lb
1 X 115lb

Took an extra rest day on 9/9, so we did this on 9/10.

K-
WU- CFWU x 2 (minus pulls) and shoulder WO from 9/10
WOD-
65-75-85-95-115-115-125PB-135F (wrist pain)-125-125

Depth was A2A, form was good, remembered to look up each time and then didn't tip forward. Wrist pain became and issue at the end.

J-
WU-CFWU x 1 and shoulder WO from 9/10
WOD-
185-255 poor form-205-255 poor Form-225-225-225-225-225-225

Used crossed arms hold, as flexibility is an issue. In the end, focused on form and depth.

Thanks Coach!

I go so low on my squats that if you put a tennis ball under my butt, I'd squish it on the way down. 285 has been my PR for months now. Was so close to breaking it today. Just lost concentration on the 295 rep when the bar hit the guard rails on the squat rack at the bottom of the lift.

Comment #251 - Posted by: RB at September 10, 2007 6:38 PM

I just started CF today, been reading about it for a few weeks now.
I did the front squats but found it difficult 'cause of my wrists.
Never tried the hook grip and boy this is some serious stuff.
I been lifting weights for a few months and CF is a total different approach to staying active/heathy.
In pounds(excluding barbell wt):
70x1 80x1 80x1 90x1 90x1
110x1 120x1 120x1 140x1 140x1

What I don't understand is this......for a guy that can squat 400lbs, how is it that I can not do quite well on this front squats? I gotta get my wrists stronger...

Flexibility is horrible, cannot get the bar in a good rack position. Tried a broom stick, the bar, and added weight. 115# still could not get the bar to touch my shoulders so just held it in my hands. I need to do some serious work.

2nd time ever doing front squats - still having form problems but much better this time. Even my wrists were feeling better. Weights were low, but I figured I need to get the form down first.

95,105,115,135,145,155,135,135,135,135

Didn't get all the way down on 155. Afterwards did:
front squat 95# x 7 rep (2 sets)
back squat 135# x 7
ghd situps x 10 (2 sets)
back extension x 15 (2 sets)
10 chin ups

I did this about 12 hours after doing the Filthy 50 (did that last night and this this morning), which was probably not my best move, but I'm a few days behind. It'll be interesting to try it again when I'm feeling fresher.

(done 9/12/07)
First WOD in a week due to cold/bronchitis. Still feeling it, but max reps shouldn't be a problem.
1x185,195,205,205,215,225,235,245(pr),250(pr)
I guess the extra rest days helped me get a new PR. Could've gone 255 or 260 but form was waning.

Forgot to post so I now I forgot my #'s.
Started with cleans and worked up to a PR of (205). Then proceeded to FS, forgot the exact amounts but I my last was around 300-315 lbs. Note: post on the same day or a week may go by the time u remember.

First attempt at M.E. front squats. Was very satisfied with how this went.

60/65/70/75/75/77.5/77.5/80/82.5/85

85kg is my PR for this lift.
