Go get em bro - I'm going for 385 (raw)

i like JM...simple yet always very informative

BW (175)deadlifts, max reps in 5 minutes: 66 reps

triceps work.

For deadlift? Socks work. Myself, I'll be tryin out my vibrams that just came in today. :]

4 months ago to this day (June 23rd 2009), I had a second shoulder surgery (SLAP Type IIa repair, 3 anchors, subacromial decompression, and sucapularis fix).

Today I hit 5 reps of an overhead squat of 99#, a 5 rep front squat of 176#, a 5 rep shoulder press of 93#, and a 5 rep deadlift of 352#. Life is good :)

Nice Herm. Good to see your shoulders are going strong.

What would you recommend doing if the most weight I have access to is 310lbs? My max is prob closer to 320... Should I do like a 2-2-2-2-2?

M/185/23/70"

I hope I can go over 300 for only the second time. I seem to be stuck on 285...

Since I started crossfit my squat has gone way up my pull-ups and push-ups have improved like crazy but my deadlift hasn't moved.

Nice to see you are back Herm...now you will make us feel weaker haha!!!

Nice times Corey Bibolet great performance bro

Big hugs and bad english for all

I'd really like to know how that BMW 120 got in the background, since they don't sell it in the US.

Who said they're in the US??

I LOVE MILES KEY.

#17 fdmo69: Miles' gym is CrossFit Hove in the UK.

Sweet. I got 345 the last time this WOD was posted. I am shooting for at least 375 today. Wish me luck.

#2:

You can also try roguefitness.com or againfaster.com for shoes.

Need advice on an alternate. My two lumbar hernias are bugging me and my legs are tired from yesterday's WOD, so I think it would be better to skip out on DL 1RM for a while. I was thinking on doing a Tabata with push ups, superman, squats and knees to elbows. Even though my legs are wasted I could pull off squats without stressing my back. Any recommendations?

Any suggestions for mid back back spasms??? Started in the middle of fran four days ago and I cannot stand missing WODS, it's making me crazy....

RE: comment 2

Lifting shoes for DL's? As was said before, socks or my favorite, Chuck Taylors. Flat soled shoes work best for deads. OLY shoes pitch you forward a bit too much for my taste.

It seems that once again, I will not have access to a weight set (out of town). Any suggestions for a suitable substitution (I have virtually no equipment where I am).

#17 fdm069 - Nice observation skills!

Good to see your shoulders are coming along Herm

Going at these raw. Usually use straps but I didn't have them today. I love using just socks ad getting funny looks. Always makes me laugh.

Questions for anyone who's been to a gymnastics cert!!!! Is it as intense as the level 1 (physically)? do you do any wods like at the level 1? I have a 4-5 hr drive home afterwards- am i going to be exhausted???!! I am going to the cert next weekend in CT...anyone going to be there?? Thanks in advance!

In the photo is Warren and Jo at CrossFit Hove, it's my ugly mug on the right!
Big thanks to Team Jacob

so the rest time between sets is 1.5-2 minutes?

did 5 x 3 the other day:

140-150-160-165-140

no belt but used straps

last time i did 140kg max. My weight is 72kg. Today i'm gonna lift twice my BW!

#28 Raine,
Tucker advises not to do any wods during the 2 days of the Gymnastics cert,because of the strain you will be putting on your core muscles the 2 days,going into hollows all the time,while performing the gymnastics moves,i was extremely sore for a couple of days,felt as if i'd torn something,but it's all good pain .

I think my technique was not good on the first few. I really focused on technique on the last 3 sets and I felt like the lift was too easy and just ran out of my 7.

Wow that for some reason hurt worse than normal...good form but it seems I feel weaker..I got up previous PR of 405 then busted the bar by droppin weights...Man I felt weak though...But hey good enough for me for now...I will get my strength back..

As of OCT 1 I quit chewing tobacco, drinking and started Paleo diet...so yes that might be cause of weaker form for now..SUBRAT!!!!!!

How much rest time are we supposted to take between sets?

Should each set be at max? Or, do I work up to a 1 rep max?

What this stuff about socks? Do you do the deadlifts in your socks?

again???

oops, i guess it was a part of CF Total when we did DL 1RM a few days ago.

I use alternating grips for the heavier weight but all the video examples of the deadlift show both hands facing the same direction on the bar. Is it okay to use alternating grips for the heavier weight? Please advise, thank you.

#48. Here's my 2 cents.

Any grip, any stance, heaviest weight as possible for 7 singles. Just like some people do wide stance squats for singles. Do what's best for you.

In my PL days, I used to pull sumo style. In OL years, I switched to regular stance DL. Nowadays, I pull regular because, for me, it transfers more in other lifts like clean and snatch.

But I might give a try at sumo DL today as I want to reach high numbers.

BIG PR day, not BR day...not sure what BR might mean...oops

I saw one early post on what they did for a warm up. I am new, and tend to do about twenty minutes of cardio/treadmill, and some stretching. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Am I wrong, but I thought that this wasn't 7 ATTEMPTS at a 1RM Deadlift, but that you are acatually supposed to lift the max weight you can at each round. It should be 7 COMPLETED 1 RM lifts even if you have to change the weight. Someone tell me if I am wrong but posted a failure seems a little rediculous. Also, why are people posting the weight they warmed up with? It should be only the max weight for each round. Please, someone at HQ tell me whats up, becuase I think people are crazy. Here's my COMPLETED(!!!!!) lifts.

Last week of 6-week strength cycle. Squats 5x5

5x3 back squats up from 235 in 12 workouts. Only 1 linear stall along the way. Will do deads tomorrow then new CFT next weekend. Skipped recent CFT as it was premature.

Relax Eric Pelletier, we are just having fun with our workouts, crossfit is about escaping boredom and routine. When I played college ball we didn't just review the tapes of our wins, we also reviewed the ones we lost! (shocking ! lol) . excepting failure isn't an opposition in my book, but you can learn from it and the only way you learn is by acknowledging it my friend. so I say post your extra sets and your failures be freeee!!!

Quick question is it ok to use straps or does it go against the whole ethos or all round development.

The reason i ask is that my grip failed before i perhaps got to my max 1 rep.

Thx

IMO the intent is to work up to your 1RM, to do 1 set of 7 reps of your 1RM is a brutal deadlift workout, and again, IMO would hurt more than help...ref some of Tate's vid lectures and not to misquote Rippetoe...a heavy deadlift day can take easily a week to recover sufficiently from, and after you pull your 1RM you would add weight till you fail to pull the next rep..then you are done. Some of the strength days you could possibly try again, but i wouldn't attempt a failed PR weight on DL. Hope that rambling helped.

3 months into Crossfit and my max deadlift went from 270 to 310!
Feels pretty good after yesterday's humbling experience. Now if i can just get my diet dialed in...

DL: Did my first ever DL last week, starting at 125 and going to 200. Felt like I could have lifted more,but was nervous about the back. Today:

185-190-195-200-205-210-215 kept going 220-230-240-250-250 not maxed out, but stopped
Goal:300

10 failed muscle-up attempts

weighted pull-ups (45 lb): 5-4-4-3-3

Ball Slams (12-lb d-ball): 6 sets of 12, tabata style

Cooled down with a rope, where I got my FIRST DOUBLE UNDER! The next ten were like riding a bicycle (not exactly).

Hardest part of workout: the burpees, BY FAR.

Not sure if you're being serious, but if you are, lighten up a little, man. People can post whatever they want that they feel will help them for next time. A lot of people post failed attempts so they can refer back and know what they tried last time. Some people may post what music they listened to or if there dog peed on their weights. For some people the post is more for themselves than anything else. This is supposed to healthy and fun, relax a little. I dig the intensity but save it for the workouts.

Herm, welcome back Brother. Good stuff.

Whew....my form needs some work! Low-back will be yelling at me....

315-315-405-450-500-520(epic fail)-405

Went with a wider stance after 400 to help with low-back inflexibility. Felt great! Finished up with some 95lbs sumo deadlift high-pulls, figure that was stupid since we haven't seen those for a week or so on a WoD....would be my luck that we have to do them tomorrow.

This was a real challenge today to reach & repeat 255. (w/up=1000m row, 10 min. DU ladder practice to 315 + 2x CF w/up)

I was wondering if anyone could offer any advice or suggestions for a problem I have with heavy lifting. The last time I did heavy deadlift (when I went for a CrossFit Total), on my second attempt deadlift at 365 lbs, I almost passed out. I was able to get full extension and return it to the ground without falling over, but I lost sensation in my face, and arms, got a little bit of tunnel vision and went temporarily deaf. Obviously, this sounds pretty serious, but I was wondering what some of your opinions were on this situation. I know that the recommendation for heavy lifting is the Valsalva, but has anyone else had this problem before, or any coaches out there dealt with a client complaining of a similiar problem? I've lifted heavier than this in the past (my PR is 400 lbs), but haven't had anything that bad happen prior to this.

Decided to do the deadlifts today sumo style.

Eric K - I passed out cold one day deadlifting. It was a miracle I didn't get seriously hurt, but my husband/coach said that I was just oxygen deprived. It scared the crud out of me. I know it's not the same, but it is something that gets your attention. let us know what you find out!

Take care everyone - great numbers!!

Goat-Based Warmup:
3 rounds:
2:00 PNF hamstring stretch each round
25/50/100 double-unders
2/4/6 muscle-ups

The Goat-Based Warmup works my three biggest current goats (flexibility, double-unders, muscle-ups), while allowing for a warmup by increasing reps each round. It also provides a defined progression: I'll continue this particular warmup until I can do one of the exercises unbroken in the last round: 100 double-unders or 6 muscle-ups. Then I'll swap in a different goat, with a similar rep scheme.

The Goat-Based Warmup takes about 20 minutes.

Cash out: Work on butterfly kipping pullups - 20 straight, in rhythm. Felt good, but hands sore.

I was close on both attempts at 376 - I was up, but not locked out at full extension. Grip held me back today, and I had a couple tears even though I trimmed callouses beforehand. Felt good about last 356 - I focused hard on not rounding my back, and was still able to get it up.

Late report.

Then added 5 x 5 with 315-365.

Today just wasn't a good day. 385,395,405,405(f)...started to black out on the last one, took about 5 minutes and MANY deep breaths, then dropped down to 365 and STILL came close to blacking out...worked on double unders and HSPU's...Disappointed...

I started using straps after being unable to use the overhand grip exclusively to lift, instead of going mixed grip. Is this suggested? What do most people do?

Question for the group/coaches?
Like mentioned by
#236 - Posted by: Clinton Canaday, I was getting really light headed after the heavier DL. Lots of straining and grunting on the way up, of course! I would tend to do 3-4 deep inhalations prior to the lift then from a full inhalation, stain up with a loud grunt (slow exhale). Is that normal for the DL or am I doing something wrong?

still losing interest, cant seem to get back to doing each exercise everyday...

My back is very tender right now lol

First time doing this WOD since my hamstring injury in the spring.

135-225-315-405-425-425-425(F)-405

Normally I would have continued with the 405's for three more rounds, but my mind was getting the best of me on the 1 rep maxes thinking something was going to pop. Grip was the limiting factor, otherwise felt strong. So I continued with 5 rounds of 3 deadlift reps each as follows:

315-315-365-365-365

Again grip was the limiting factor. Wasn't quite done so continued with the following as fast as I could:

12 deadlifts 225 lb
21 push-ups
9 deadlifts 225 lb
15 push-ups
6 deadlifts 225 lb
9 push-ups
15 push ups

After this I was pretty well spent.

Didn't truly max out, just worked on some deadlift progressions due to slightly torn hands. Didn't want to make them worse and tape was not cooperating.

225x5 - 295x3 - 315 - 315 - 365 - 365 - 365 - 365

365 felt good and pretty easy, should still be on par with my PR of 400

225, 245, 255, 275, 285, 285, 305.

Did this after grappling, bought in with 50 kettle bell DL 80lbs, 20 pullups, 50 pushups, 50 4 count flutter kicks.

475 Easy with straps i borrowed from gym buddies
500 Thought I would see how far the straps would take me. I almost cleared the knee, but failed.

Falling in love with deadlift. It is so mental. My goal is 600lbs in a year.

-major grip issues - many 2d and 3rd attempts - fail was due to grip - core strength and power feel close to normal again - just need hands
