Strength day, awesome

go phillies!

First strength day since I started CrossFit. This should be awesome!

Only 3 weeks in using CF - love it. What is the recomended weight for this one?...looks interesting.

Does each rep have to be brought up from the floor?

Jeez, questions like this, I need to get to an affiliate!

One of my favorites.....

#4- go as heavy as you can. score is total load.

#5- nope

let's go get some!

"Only 3 weeks in using CF - love it. What is the recomended weight for this one?...looks interesting."

As heavy as YOU can go. Since you're new, go light and practice technique. Check the FAQs for videos on form.

"Does each rep have to be brought up from the floor?"

No, shoulder to overhead. Use a rack with the bar set to shoulder height.

love it. Can't wait

CrossFit Radio. Can't wait. Talk to you guys in the morning.

Front Squat:
10 x 95
5 x 115
3 x 135
2 x 155
1 x 160 started leaning forward
2 x 155
3 x 135
5 x 115
10 x 95

I'm getting A2A from now on for all of my squats. I've noticed a decrease in my PRs but I don't care.

Push Presses:
5 x 95
3 x 95
3 x 100
3 x 100
3 x 105
Far from my PR. hmm.. I'm just happy to be moving weight. I love it.

Awesome, When looking at the video it looks like the fingers are barely around the bar. When I hold it this way I feel a bit of strain on my wrists, tired moving hands up and down the bar. Any suggestions would be appreciated, (or extra clips)

Thanks!

Allison,
I was in NY today, what terrible weather.

As for the video, she is still bending the elbows way before the second pull ends.

Thanks Sleeveless & Herm. Can't wait to try this one out. GO!!!!

Damn, that pic is pretty hot.

Nice work Allison!
Good numbers on both FS and PP's!

Sweet Push Jerk action, I like it.

The Games site was looin' pretty windy in that there clip. It also looks like they are still beating the heck out of it as far as landscaping goes!

OPINION NEEDED:

My question is does the Crossfit idealogy appreciate more performing reps until muscle failure or planning reps strategically to almost reach muscle failure and cut down on transition time? for example, this Saturdays WOD with running and air squats...i knew i could do 20, rest 3 seconds, do 15 rest 3 seconds, and do 15 and then run. My time was better than I expected. But should I have gone as hard as I could and gotten as many reps as possible and then start up again once I recover? just a question tickling my mind...

Pelch, whatever gets you the best time with the best form is fine as far as I'm concerned. There has to be a degree of 'strategery' if you are doing high reps; you don't want to burn out and then have to wait longer. When I'm doing a lot of push-ups I'm usually down to single reps at the end with about 1 second rest!

jon h: Thanks! 20# off of my FS PR and almost 15 off of my 1RM for the Push Press. But I'm willing to take the cut for a better, deeper squat.

When I was doing the Push Presses in the Globo today a trainer interrupted me to tell me what I was doing wrong. He said my torso was too vertical. He told me I needed to bend less at the knee and lean forward. DUH! What was I thinking?!

I felt like I was in Bizarro World.

#12 Jim D: Shoot me an e-mail next time. Hope you enjoyed yourself even with the rainy weather. I love the rain :)

sick pic! crossfit london representin'

Pelch, #17:

If it's for time, do whatever you can to minimize your time while maintaining good ROM. If your form never starts to degrade, you probably aren't going hard enough, but don't get so sloppy that you endanger yourself.

Other WODs (like FGB or "The Chiefs") require you to go all out for a specified time, then give you a rest, while other ones where you do "as many rounds as possible in x-minutes" require intelligent pacing.

There is a certain amount of pacing that you will have to figure out for every WOD, and that is part of the workout. I always refer back to what we're training for, real life. If you had to dig your buddy out of an avalance, you'd want to do it "for time." If you could do it faster by stopping to catch your breath every 30-seconds, then you're going to have a better chance of saving your buddy than if you went all-out and exhausted yourself before getting him out.

As you keep up with the WODs and become more fit, you will find that you will need less and less recovery time. Good luck!

Awesome! Strength day while in the middle of a 24 hour fast, and after working the night shift no less!
I may have to drop weight a little since I don't have a rack anywhere near shoulder height. Gotta cling it up. :/

funny. that hill never looks steep in a video.

random question.
anyone know the name of the song/artist that's used in the WOD video 'Jeremy'?

Called it and need to work on it.

Perfect.

Woot woot, this should be an interesting first attempt! Highly doubt I'll be pushing it or even make that many reps, but I'll definitely try it out and work on form and such.

So, here's a question. Is there any way to save the videos on the Exercises/Demo page? Forgive me if it's obvious, but I've never looked at them. We're going to be hitting a port sometime soon and that means I can take my laptop off the ship and get access to the videos with the WiFi they have in the Sandbox. It'll be great to actually watch the videos, but are they saveable for later views or are they one-time view only? May be a stupid question, but I believe that you might as well ask a stupid question then risk not asking and it actually be a good question. It's whatever though, lol.

I'll probably couple these push jerks with a run. It depends on how long I can stay on the treadmill without getting bored... I have no iPod or anything fancy like that.

Here's another decent question that I'll throw in. It seems like every time I start a new diet/workout plan I feel like I start to actually get more fat on my tummy area. I don't really know how to explain it... I just feel like I can't lose that fat. Now, crossfit has completely changed my goals from wanting to look a certain way to actually being as strong and fit and be able to hang with the big dogs. Though I'm not trying to get a certain look anymore, I'd still lke to get rid of that pudge, know what I mean? Is there anything in particular I should be doing, or should I just keep riding it out and wait a few months before I complain about no results. I have such a horrible metabolism, I just don't know what to do with it. Damn my sister for getting the good looks and great metabolism of the family... but I got brains :D.

Ok I'll leave you guys alone for now until I post my results.

I just need to say I will be in San Diego this week and will be in a 25 story hotel
let the stair climbing begin :)

I don't see a gym listed on the web page and but I sure hope it has one. It will make workouts a ton easier than making one up although I do anticipate trying the stairs for time wheeeeeee! see how good I can get at stairs in 1 week. I wish everyone else the best of luck this week on all of their trials and tribulations.

Sailor Erin #26
Fat loss is a matter of calories in vs. calories out. There is a fair amount of science behind it but according to the professionals you CANNOT spot reduce. By this I mean that you cannot specifically target where your body will pull calories from to use for energy. Therefore doing 500 sit-up per day won’t specifically reduce the abdominal fat a person has, the fat stores from arms/breasts/hips might be where the body pulls from. Yes your abs will become stronger and underneath that little extra mass you will have nice strong abs. Muscle burns calories the more muscle a person has the greater the caloric burn – increasing muscle mass will also help with the caloric battle.
5-6 small meals per day vs. 3 big ones is a metabolism booster. You will be slightly hungrier sooner but that is because of the decreased amount of food in your meal and you get to eat again sooner.
I am not sure of Gaining tummy fat as you start a new diet - You might want to consider going in for a check-up and have a full blood workup done and have them check thyroid hormone levels. Go on in for a good old check up, meet with a dietician and CROSSFIT your BUTT OFF! Good luck!

Hey Sailor ERIN #26 check out this too it is a crossfit nutritionist web page you might be able to get something out of it.

http://robbwolf.com/

One last post to ERIN #26
http://robbwolf.com/?p=138

check that out it is about fat gain with exercise - who whudda thunk it!

StevieV you're the man. I'm going to try all the stuff Robb says before I run to medical asking for a physical. Hopefully I can combat this without being told I have a thyroid problem. I've always been set kind of thick, but I don't want that to be an excuse as to why I am. Ever since I joined the Navy 2 and a half years ago I've been obsessed with finding my perfect fitness program. I've felt pretty fit before, but I believe CF is perfect for me. I just need to actually get my butt in gear in extra ways to get the body I believe I want. It's so hard to eat right and have smaller meals more often on the ship. Sadly I will have to wait to put that into effect once we get home, but I do have some healthy options. I've at least completely cut out soda (I've actually had that cut out for a while now, but I'd allow myself an occassional one.) I've also cut out Moster energy drinks which were my addiction. I still drink coffee more than I should, and I know I need to work on that. I did quit smoking in like July, so I'm allowing myself my coffee addiction as long as I don't smoke. It's not good to replace one bad habit with another, but stress levels going through the roof are bad for you as well. I'm doing my best to follow the Zone diet. I definitely don't go anywhere near the desserts on the ship anymore, and I don't even take cookies from the people who get them sent in care packages. I actually told my mom not to send me candy or baked goods, so she's sending me dried fruits and nuts. I suppose I'm making big strides, but I have pretty much hit that plateau where I'm definitely not obese, but that last bit of body fat I'd like to shed stays stubborn as hell. I suppose it's a challenge though, and I must face it.

Wow I ramble a lot when I let myself. Sorry about that y'all, lol. Thanks for listening though.

Another fallen hero. Really sad.

Hey, what do you guys use for t-shirt design? Not sure if you'd use a basic Macromedia program or what? Or if there's anyone out there that would want to help me whip up something that'd be cool too. I'm sick of cheap t-shirts. I'd like to use basic under armour blanks. Who do you use that can meet that requirement?

#33 Sailor Erin - keep on ramblin', I look forward to your posts. I still think that you deserve some sort of Zone medal for giving away some chocolate creamy thing called a Hello Panda! I'm just old enough that sharing a common forum on the internet still just amazes me, and I especially love hearing from our troops and learning where they are crossfitting. It actually motivates me to work out harder and be a little more thankful for how good I have it. Life is really good. I'm married with two great kids and I got to build our house myself. I need to remember daily that these blessings aren't a birthright, and they continue to be bought and paid for by America's troops as they have been for the last 235 years. I am so thankful to all of you out there doing your jobs so that I can go out to my shed in a few minutes and destroy myself with push presses and then go put together a hot pink princess car for my little girl's third birthday party. In a few hours, my dad will show up and we will have a barbecue and watch our Redskins get murdered. Thank you, to all of you. I will be thinking about you.

At a globo gym, don't have bumper weights so I can't risk dropping it on the floor. Not a bad round I guess. Also, if you can, post your body weight with your score as this is the true measure of your strength and fitness levels.

Keep up the good work!!

Dani- thanks I appreciate that. That will definitely come in handy so that I can have these videos for later use. I am currently on the USS Ronald Reagan, but I'm actually just here temporarily for deployment as my parent command is a pre-commissioning unit. That basically means that the ship I'm actually attached to is not done being built yet, so they sent me on a deployment so I could get my salt.

Nathan T- I do believe you are one of my favorite people on here. Thank you so much for those kind words. Don't place me in the ranks with the ones over in the desert actually risking their lives though. They are the true heros. I will get there someday, when they actually feel like sending me. I've only been trying to go for 2 years now. I swear I should have been a Marine. But really, thank you.

So... as much as I intended to get to this today, i didn't. I was lazy as I normally am on Sundays. I think tomorrow I will do Murph. I really want to work on that one so I can get less than an hour. As much as that workout makes me want to put my fist through something, I want to master it. It's this odd obsession I have. Let's go for a goal of a sub hour Murph by the end of deployment. I can expand from there. That's taking off like... 23 minutes. Totally doable.

Grab the Kool-Aid and GET SOME!

Time: 11:44, all squats unbroken.

Very happy with the results!

5x5 full ROM HSPUs with 5 minute break between sets. Hands on 12" stools so when the top of my head touched the floor my hands were below my shoulders for each rep. I made all five sets of five without breaking any set....I'll try this another time with 4 minute rest breaks to see if I can do it.

5 minute break

Not sure how my left shoulder would handle a ballistic movement like push jerks so I worked light and really had to focus on getting under the bar fast (shoulders fatigued from the HSPUs). 3 minute break between sets:

Sailor Erin - You deserve to be included with the Marines and soldiers. The flight deck is one of the most dangerous places on earth. Anywhere else is long hours in heat or cold with back breaking or mentally taxing work. Every job takes every thing you have in some way or other. If you perceive a lack of danger, ask the families of the HMS Sheffield or USS Cole about that. It won't always be Iraq and yet you signed up anyway. So, yes you are a hero even if (because?) it doesn't feel like it.

Good morning CF community. Could someone advise me if the split jerk is fine for todays WOD or is it strictly standard jerk? Many thanks!

Hey, does anybody know if there is a way to get to listen to previous episodes of CrossFit Radio? I caught the end of today's but didn't get to listen to Mike Boyle speak. I would have liked to have heard that and any subsequent rebuttals that were made by Coach G.

I did the CFE workout an hour or two ago so I'm waiting before going out and doing the WOD. I will say there is way too much concern over bumper plates and metal plates and dropping and "oh I wish I had bumper plates, woe is me"

If you are in a gym with a squat rack it doesn't matter. Put the stopper bars up to around sternum height and you can drop the bar all day. There are ways to do this WOD and almost all weight WODs without the necessity of bumper plates.

Well, I posted this a couple days ago but it got lost in post number 300 something...so I'ma ask again...

The other day during 30 muscle ups, is it better, in the crossfit world, to do 30 jumping/assisted mus or the 120/120 pullup/dips? There seemed to be conflicting ideas throughout the comments. Which is more effective for developing overall in the crossfit mentality? Is there a coach that's commented on this?

I only ask because I can't stop thinking about it...lol

It's definitely better to go with assisted muscle-ups.

And even if you can't do assisted muscle-ups, 30/30 weighted pull-ups/dips is still better than 120/120 non-weighted pull-ups/dips.

@comment #109- "rads" "is it better, in the crossfit world, to do 30 jumping/assisted mus or the 120/120 pullup/dips?"

I would say do as many muscle ups as you can first, then when you reach failure move to the jumping muscle ups. That's assuming you have a muscle up. If you don't have a muscle up yet I would recommend doing the pullups/dips for the wod to increase strength in those areas first. Then during a time when you are working on skills or as part of your warmup, work on the jumping muscle ups or muscle up progressions until you get your muscle up.

85 was about max the last time so I'm happy with my progress. Core is getting stronger. Worked at a local "Y" today and had quite a few stalkers giving me the eye. One finally walked over and had to ask...."dude what are you doing?" Said I looked all wiry and ripped with little body fat."What are you a mountain climber? Powerlifter? Triathlete?" ....No, just a Crossfitter. A what? So I gave him the website............

Tech work with continual video analysis

Lots of jumps without bar working on opening hip
Lots of reps with PVC bar
1 x 5 @ 20kg
4 x 5 @ 30kg

Finally...we have full opening of the hip :D

Thanks to Jimi for helping me nail this at the Level 1 Cert in Manchester.

109: IMO assisted MU's are better. If it's just you, then jump or use a rubber band (can be hard to engineer w/rings). If you have a spotter the best way to do it is have them help you through the transition by putting their hands where your kidneys are and doing a gentle up/forward push. You're still doing 95 plus percent of the work and this should also get you to learn the timing of the movement a little better. Remember to keep your elbows tight and throw your chest/head forward at the transition.

All that was available here at Hotel 43, Boise, Idaho. Yesterday I finished a couple days of backpacking 20 miles in the Sawtooth mountains. I realize lots of people can do 3 times that much in one day, and I'm duly impressed by their ability, but I'm happy and grateful to the Glassmans for not only dramatically expanding my capabilities, but also for helping me push my limits so much farther than I dreamed possible just a few years ago. Thanks again, Coach and Lauren!

Had to loosen up my right tricep and rotator cuff with band work between each set. Experimented with jerks and split jerks. The split jerks felt a lot better on my knee. Really worked on explosively opening my hips. After watching the video of Charity doing Fran I picked up on some really good tips for exploding the hips. Also, started doing my warmups with chest to bar kipped pullups. Was lucky to get a set of 15. I can usually get 30-40 kipped pullups neck over bar.

struggling with strained biceps and forearms from Nicole/pull ups
just a question if anyone can clear it up,yesterday spent 2 hrs training with ex oly lifters,working on snatch technique etc,Elaine and i have sparked their interest in cleaning and snatching again,their technique is spot on and can see and correct our faults easily,but when i was doin squats ,Tommy said why was i doin them that way ,Ripp/powerlifting style,he said for oly lifting i should have the bar high and it helps get you used to being in an upright position like in the snatch in the catch at the bottom.i understand what he was saying as it makes sense ,but what's the consensus with crossfit as we always seem to be schooled in the Ripp style,i saw Alisonnyc saying something similar the other day cos she's been doin oly lifting,anyone know if its a conflict of interests or should we do both styles?thanks anyone that can clear this up,cheers.

Rounded out the workout with squats (185x12, 12, 205x10); deadlifts (205x10, 255x6, 10); bench (185x10, 10, 8, 135x12), and push ups to failure (22).

Hi all. I don't post much, but lurk plenty. Been following the main site WODs as much as possible, often scaled, and am really enjoying Crossfit.

Has any thought ever been given to having a section on the site to give profiles on some of the main Crossfit coaches, trainers, and fire breathers? Particularly regarding their fitness and athletic backgrounds? I think it would be really interesting and would give some more depth to the site. Thoughts?

Once I hit 165 felt terrible on these. Need more wrist flexiability as always, but I also have a problem with hitting that clavicle bone ( the point of the clavicle that is right next to your trachea) each time I come down from a rep.) Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix that or do I need to suck it up. Any input would be appreciated.

i think i would have lost it being stuck on ship all the time

Question from a 6 week rookie...

On a strength day, like today, will you guys just do the WOD or will you add something else, like a run or some other excercises?

Legs were toasted from yesterday's WOD and a 5K road race that I ran yesterday morning. I'm able to perform well on the running WODs and most of the lower body workouts; unfortunately, I feel subpar when it comes to presses (i.e., pushups, shoulder presses, bench press). Does anyone have any advice on how to get caught up to speed on the parts of your body that are lacking?

i've been including some A2A in my training.

more ROM. no need for ball for depth indicator. watching videos of snatch they all seem to go deep.

are u going A2A for air squats also?

are the deep squats (long term) going to hurt knees?

I switched to the Smith after I failed the first 175. Well, I tried it one more time and got it, but felt like I could lose it. With no bumpers, I got nervous. The Smith bar is LIGHTER than the regular bar... I just don't know how much it weighs, but it feels like 20# tops. So, the last 9 reps were probably more like

If anybody knows the standard weight of a Smith rack bar, I'd be curious...

a weak technique for me, so I needed to keep the weight at a middling weight to get a better feeling of driving the bar off my shoulders and splitting with a stomp. Some were better than others. another really good workout and interesting, too.

Last five sets were at 185x5, 185x5, 185x5, 195x4, 195x5; hit one at 200 but rep two failed and I was done. Felt like my jerk technique is getting cleaner, but I don't think I've done a jerk 5x5, don't have a basis for comparison.

Used 'jerk boxes' and it made the whole deal much more productive - dropping the bar onto the boxes at the end of a set saved strength that would have used to hold the bar and gently guide into a rack. Using only two of these same boxes makes a good squat safety rack, and will be very useful for heavy front squats and hvy overhead squats.

This is my first post. I've only been using the CrossFit method for a little over a week and I'm lovin it, you guys are maniacs! So thought it was about time I got involved in the WODS. My training focus in recent times has primarily involved kettlebells, dumbbells, and body-weight conditioning, but it feels great getting back into the Olympic lifts with barbells once again!

*Set the bar after 4 reps on the last set. It didn't feel that smooth. I felt a lot of tension on the lower back and considering I haven't lifted this heavy in a while, thought I should quit while I was ahead.

CFWU - 3. Regular reps. Superman. Burgener.

125, 135, 145, 155, 165 - 4+1.

May need to keep weight back on delts more. Worried about smacking myself in nose w/bar on way up. Jumps and arm lockouts were pretty good on all reps.

Scaled up to 135 I think.

the bad news: I misread the directions & did push presses...

the good news: 95,95,105,95,95

that's some sort of PR for the chick who used to have the world's most boney arms. Grrr...

Can't concentrate today. My soul hurts.

did not complete the 5th set (back felt weak)(probably could have gotten 2-3 at 165)

23/M/190

135x5
155x4 with 2 failed attempts
155x5
165x5
165x4
165x2 Just make up reps
135x5 cool down

Not too shabby for my 1st push jerk in a long time, I've done 175x5 previously and 185x3. I have my goal to do my BW 185 or 190 as a shoulder press. I got a lot of making up to do.

felt strong can push for more esp with less reps

135 x5
155 x5
175 x3 (bad form)
165 x5
135 x5 (work on perfect form)

I need to continue to improve my form. Felt better on the last set, I am capable of doing a lot more if I perfect my form.
