Pull-up Bar Drills: Moving Toward the Lever with Jeff Tucker, CrossFit Journal Preview - video [wmv] [mov]
Posted by lauren at May 3, 2008 5:56 PM
Awesome! Great way to end the night thinking about this for tomorrow.
thanks for the early post. Great job to everyone on "Murphy."
Wow. I have to get used to the workout being posted 3 hours eariler. I was really confused when I came to the site this time.
I can't wait to meetROBERT SOUTHERLAND tomorrow atCFsan Diego.
I'm about to do a workout at CF Throwdown.. Fighters and CF Men... ooollala ;)
DAY 1 in the ZONE is going well.. I guess. I'm hungry and want bread
Should I be maxing out with every set (and thus decreasing the weight every few sets), or working towards a max?
Big day tomorrow with my first "official" CrossFit Total at Cynergy Crossfit! All in preparation for the East Coast Crossfit Games... it's on, mofo's!!
Hello all
Two Months post L5/S1 microdisictomy surgery for herniated disc. Looking for advice/knowledge about recover workouts/stretching. Hoping coach might chime in. Iam a Federal Air Marshal and my Phy. fitness is everything. Did "Murph" yesterday in 43:57 as my first FULL workout back. Thx in advance for any advice/help/knowledge
P.S. Iam the #1 crossfit fan
Wow, the pull-up bar drills in the video looks like a great way to learn the "college boy roll" for those who do the o-course...I know that is something I have to work on, I definitely gonna be practicing these exercises
The way my shouders feel after all those push ups ... I am good for about 5 lb shoulder press ...
my arms are still dead from "murph"....should be fun thou
Aaron #6,
I would check the message board for that question. There will probably be a ton of info already there that would help you out, and if you post a question, you will probably get really detailed responses there. Good luck.
Dang, I've been doing my own WOD's these days but this one makes me wish I wasn't. This one is sooo tough.

More better faster
Thanks for the early post. I love this workout!
#6 Aaron,
Go easy! 2 months doesn't sound like that long of a recovery. I had L4/L5 and L5/S1 done 7 years ago and remember recovery time to be more like 4-5 months before heavy lifting and a lot of running. I know a lot of people that pushed it too hard, too fast and ended up with 2nd operations and/or lifetime disabilities. My advise...take it easy. Good luck.
Still 2 days behind but will catch up eventually. Off to do my sub 20 min 5K run now, well hoping to do a sub 20 min anyway.
#6 Aaron my L4/L5 herniation still gives me grief from time to time 6 years on, although I did not get it operated on. The key to me doing these workouts everyday is core strength. I struggled to move freely at all before Crossfit, but now I barely have any trouble.
If my form is poor in any heavy lifting, I will know about it the next day. Take it very easy on the recovery and don't push too hard too soon.
Good luck with the recovery and remember GHD's are your friend.
My right arm seems to be significantly weaker than my left (I am right handed by the way). Any suggestions on how to even my arms out?
So I was all psyched to do Murph today, my toe has not been that bad the last couple of days and I have never done Murph before and felt really inspired to get at it, then I woke up this morning.
Sometimes soreness comes a day later than you expect, after the 10 thruster+ 10 pull up workout I was surprisingly not that sore the next day. Then I woke up today(second day after) and I couldn't extend my legs or arms in normal fashion and my lats and rhomboids seemed to be very pissed off at me.
So I decided today was probably not the day to do Murph, but I will meet him as soon as I can. Until then I am going to not move for a while and not because I choose to.
Anybody else sometimes experience this deceptive second day soreness?
TempleOwl: What you are experiening is DOMS (Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness). I don't have the bandwidth to hit you up with a good link on it.
I just signed up for my first Cert: Level I, September 20th up at Camp Pendleton. I'm psyched.
Also, I finally get back stateside at the end of May. I'll be living up in Del Mar but I work down at 32nd street. I have been incorporating Crossfit into my workout since spring 2006 but I think its time I stepped it up and joined one of the affiliates in San Diego. Does anyone have any suggestions based on where I live and work on which location to lean towards? My apartment is right off of Del Mar Heights Rd. Thanks.
Off to do battle with Murph. 3,2,1...
I'm never that excited for max effort days. I don't know why, but I like to feel like I really did a workout when I'm done and ME days don't make me feel that way.
my shoulders are soooo bad.
i hope these help, i get some pain in them and they pop a lot... but i must obey the WOD.
#6 Aaron,
Your psoas muscle attaches to either side of your spine at the T12, L1-L5, through the hip where it joins the iliacus, and inserts into the thigh. It can have many trigger points and adhesions in athletes, and the constant tension in the muscles can lead to issues in the lower back discs, especially L4-L5. Long story short...stretch your hip flexors every single day, mind your limits, and drop me a line if you want more info on how you can treat the trigger points within the muscle.
Good luck!
heavy lifting days excite me because they feel like active rest. taking 2 or 3 minutes of rest feels like an eternity after crossfitting for a while.
#22 warm 'em up and stretch em out, my shoulders are garbage and i don't take care of them as well as I should but guaranteed every time that I go hard without a warm-up I hurt myself and get set back for sometimes weeks.
Hey guys, I have a random question but maybe someone here can answer it. My deadlift is not bad but my squat is pathetic. My squats are deep real squats but they are just nowhere near my deads. What gives? I'm pretty sure my deadlifts are pretty good form as well. Just my body type or lifting style? No idea. Any input would be great. Thanks,
John
Did some presses at CF Throwdown tonight. What abad a$$ gym..
I think I'm in love
I was praying for a WOD like this after Murphy. I can actually remember saying "Tomorow had better be a max out set, because my heart cant take to much of this. I pushed throught though, but at 20 pull ups left and 1 mile to go I was looking at 35 minutes, then my crew and I recieved a grass fire emergency and had to roll. Took care of that and went right back to the gym to finish. I wasn't going to sit this one out I came way to far.So my time was around 50 minutes. First Murphy though, so I can definetley improve.
Oh by the way, Men's Journal just published an article on Crossfit. It filled me up with pride showing it to all the people in the gym. I was like, Yep, thats my workout! HAHA!
#18 Adam - My legs are incredibly sore. Specially my hammies. I am the type of person who ALWAYS gets sore for some reason, even after 13 months of CF. Somehow between pushing the run hard and hitting the thrusters hard (21min run and 14 full sets of the thrusters/pull ups), my legs decided to revolt against me. I had to listen to my body and skip "Murph" today, which really pisses me off. I am going to make a game time decision tomorrow, either "Murph" or the regular WOD.
#20 Caliswo - I would love to get some more info on D.O.M.S.
I have compressed discs between l4 and l5 and l5 and the sacrum. I used to have trouble getting off the floor. Since I started crossfit it rarely bothers me. Thanks coach. Hopefully, I can make it through life without having to have surgery.
#25 john
I was the same way. I used to squat using a high bar technique ( the bar rest on top of the traps).
Recently I switched to using the low bar technique (bar rests just below my rear deltoids or almost on top of my rhomboids) and my squat has gained around 30 pounds. The reason why it went up so much is because the low bar technique allows a person to activate their hamstrings in the lift very similar to the deadlift. The high bar technique only allows for partial hamstring recruitment, and the front squat recruits virtually no hamstrings and thats why your dealift is strong and your squat is weaker. There is a great article on it in this month's journal by Mark Rippetoe, I also think he has written about it in one of his books, but I'm not sure which one. I think it is STARTING STRENGTH, but again I'm not sure.
#20 Caliswo - Thank you.
bs2103, I'm with you I would also love to get more info on D.O.M.S.
#18, #28, #31 Click here for a very good description of DOMS: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delayed_onset_muscle_soreness
Long story short...your muscles got thrashed and they are healing. Do some active recovery stuff to improve circulation, but mind your limits while you recover and you'll be stronger than before once you've healed.

Welcome to the "west coast"
You are going to like it here!
Question?
Are split jerks acceptable with the push jerk? or does it need to be the standard parallel landing?
Just looking to keep it correct...And RX'd
Thanks.
#34 - "Are split jerks acceptable with the push jerk? or does it need to be the standard parallel landing?"
Split jerks weren't rx'd; push jerks were.
Tonight at HEL: Quarter Gone Bad. 65#/jpu/knee burpees = 94. Fun wod. next time I'll go heavier but not much. I burpeeing so hard I hit my face on the floor!

Check out Greg's warmup on the workout/demo page.
m/220/33/6"0
rest week, day 6.
Question:
How much time is recommended between sets and exercises? I want to be able to lift the maximum amount of weight, but I don't to lessen the intensity. Thanks much.
I will certainly try the lowbar technique but i mean there is a huge discrepancy between my squat and dead, on the order of 200 pounds. Something is up.

31yo M, 162cm, 72kg
Did with 50# dumbbells -- felt a little heavier than a 135# barbell, which is what I usually use. Felt good, especially after Murph yesterday.
Does anyone know where the demo of Annie doing this WOD is posted? I tried to find it on the exercises page and can't.
I actually just tried this WOD the other day (I have been off the main page for a few weeks). I tried sticking with one weight (or close to one weight) throughout, i.e.:
SP: 155/165/170(f)/160/160
PP: 170/170/170/170/170
PJ: 150/155/155/155/155
Is that ok, or should my first two or three sets all be lighter, and my last set be my one attempt at a new PR?
First muscle up today! It weren't purdy, but hey, if you can't celebrate here, where can you celebrate? The strangest part is that I did it after a scaled Joshie WOD so pullup strength could not have been what has been holding me back for the last several months--just technique.
To all those working toward similar goals my advice is keep at it. When it came to MU, kipping pullups and the Olifts I watched all of the videos and kept doing it over and over and over--well past the point of frustration--and for each, one day it just 'clicked'. On to handstand pushups now.

Dear Coach-
I've been doing CrossFit since Nov '07, after I had my daughter. I've lost 60 pounds so far (I gained nearly 70 from the pregnancy) and feel great. I still have a long way to go but I never thought I'd get this far in the first place.
Anyway, I wanted to thank you and all of those who work so hard to make CrossFit what it is today.
Thanks!!

Shoulder Press was really off today, just couldn't get past that sticking point. I think my shoulders and chest are still a little beat down from my Thursday workout (weighted dips, keg carries, tire flips). Adding the hip and leg drive on the PP and PJ made up for it though, and those felt much better. Almost got the 5th rep of PJ at 135, but I was getting pretty gassed by that point.
no new PR's today.... just getting back to it since i went home on R&R.

fails on 135 made me wish I had a gym w/ bumper plates. luckily i just guided the barbell down to the squat guards and it crashed really loud . . . not embarassing at all . . .
press was reached at 115#
push press was at 125#
push jerk was at 115#
first real attempt at push jerk with poundages. did notice that the weight got easier to move with more hip involvement. I am still tired from yesterday's Murph. I'm taking a rest day tomorrow. Later.
I have been doing crossfit for a few months now, and everytime i do overhead lifts, my forearms and usually includes my elbows. Any reasons why this might happen?
opos, that should have HURT between "forearms" and "and"

If you're doing this workout right, you should PP significantly more than you SP, and you should PJ still more than you PP.
Else you're not getting the technique of the PP and PJ and you're missing much of the benefit.

workout question
do you do all your shoulder presses before you do all your push presses etc or do you do 1 shoulder press, followed by 3 push press followed by 5 push jerks?
i have done the second style before for this number and it was very hard
man, i LOVED this workout. Don't know why but it was just a great one for me. Did it strong, plus a CF warmup and mile run, then into the sets.
Only bad thing is that i had a nice Zone lunch right after but couldn't resist a coke zero for some reason :-o

I think I may have wanted to start with a lower weight. I took about a 3 to 5 min break between each lift because they are my maxes and it's not a metcon workout. Also on the pj's I felt my form start to break and I don't have bumpers and I was almost droppin it on every rep so I just dropped the weight and worked on form.

hav'nt been able to catch up with the workouts because of a cold, but did my first ever muscle up today! On my homemade rings!
Today's Brand X Class workout was a "fun" team workout:
While Team A does an exercise Team B runs, then Team A runs and Team B works. Team can't start the next exercises until all of their team members are in from the run.
HSPU (400m)
Toes to Bar (200m)
Tire Flips (400m)
Rope climbs (200m)
Squats (400m)
Team B 798
Team A 919
I was lucky enough to be on Team A and my team members were great at motivating me to keep up my running pace. I had to sub push ups for HSPU so 10 pushups = 1 HSPU. That meant I contributed 3 hspu to my teams amazing score, and I did do one complete rope climb. I did better on the Toes to Bar and the Squats. The guys all did amazing work.
I'm sure Team B was amazing too but I was too busy dying... I mean, running to tell.

(#169 Justin - it calls for push jerk. Do push jerk. When it calls for split jerk, do split jerk.)
I gave this one a shot today, but my rib area is still really hurting from Wednesday's workout. I made it through the press okay (work sets = 1x110x5), but my first pp was agonizing, so I bailed. Time to stretch, ice it up, and take some Vitamin I.

Overall, a nice lunge PR although I could have held my chest up higher. I just wasn't feeling the overhead pressing...probably because I'm not used to training in the morning with so little food. Yes, that will be my excuse for not setting more PRs today. haha!

Sore from yesterday. Glad there was no squats needed today. Could not get the push jerk right. Something else to add to the list to work on.
WU: press/push press/push jerk 45# 65# x5, 85# x3
Press: 135/145/155(f)/150/150
Push Press: 155/165/ (realized at this point that these are 3 reps each. started over out of self loathing)155/165/170(f 3rd rep only)/170(f 1st rep only)/170
Push Jerk: 170(f after 1st)/160/165(f 1st rep only)/165(f 1st rep only)
i think form would have made a 5-10# difference

Wow, Do you use your shoulders for Murph much! Considering that I usually shoulder press 145lbs and my Push Jerk is almost 200lbs, today was an exercise in concentration, humility and perseverance. It took me almost two hours to complete this workout, it usually takes me an hour. Today was not a mental game, it was totally physical. I just had no strength left in my shoulders today. I used today to really focus on technique. Starting Strength by Rip is just indispensable, I don't know how anyone in the gym could get by without reading that gem.

Just started week 3 of CrossFit. I forgot that the PP's were supposed to be 3 reps per set, until it was too late. It was a thrill to do the jerk presses--this was the first time I felt successful doing a somewhat challenging technical lift. Can't wait to do more!
I skipped the wod to surf again. I couldn't help it. Mugu had head high barrels and hardly anyone was out. How can you resist that?

I could tell one lift when I had the technique nailed - the weight seemed to elevate itself up. Fun stuff. Paul

Not nearly as good as last time and I was rushing so I didn't take much rest between sets. Pretty sore from yesterday.

Running late so had to storm through without any rest periods in between.
Guess I was still tore up from Murph, I started way too heavy, and did alot of failing. I nailed the Push press progression, everything else was ugly. Oh well, live and learn, still a good time.

Should I be maxing out with every set (and thus decreasing the weight every few sets), or working towards a max?

-one of my many self identified "weak points". I understand the progress of the press into the push press, into the jerk....but by time I get there I am smoked.

I don't know why I don't read dozens of other people saying this --- but this workout is THE HARDEST WORKOUT IN CF. I'm not kidding. I can handle Murph, I can handle Eva, I can take Nancy or Nicole like a man on fire, but this workout is grueling torture for me. Too much goddamn anticipation and buildup to each lift. This one's brutal, and y'all are delinquent in not saying it.
Also, I'll pay 500 burpees to the first person I meet who claims it, if I don't beat EricBrandom's 265 lb PJ by August.
