Needed to do some shoulders.

Hoo-RAH

Does this mean 7 sets?

Yea, is this 7 sets of 3 reps?

#3 & #4: You're both correct — 7 sets of 3 reps. If you haven't done standing shoulder presses, start lighter than you expect and work on form. They're deceptively difficult (I've only done them once and it can get kinda dicey if you go too big too early).

Like I said, only done these once for weight (CFT) & wanted to try them again seriously. Looks like that'll come tomorrow! Game on!

Great video. Nice work Miranda! Looking strong! Congrats on on your finish in the sectional...Urine the big time now!

When Kelly talks, I want to hear it all! So much to learn from him...

Is there a compare-to date?

is it better to do behind the neck or no?

#9 jorgo
these are off the chest, standing usually

That's a great video of the sectionals! Got me all fired up!!!! I love you Miranda...I pee all the time during WODs...it's a true sign of maximum intensity! Good luck at your qualifier!

Miranda you are amazing. I must say it's great to see my L1 Cert Trainer piss herself! LOL

Looks like a good WOD, oh wait, my shoulders are killing from Rolling Grace two days ago... 3, 2, 1, GO!!!!!

I hate missing WOD i guess im doubling up teusdays and wednesdays

Do we bend our knees like done in push press to do shoulder press? I know is not an explosive press... Thank you.

Hooyah Johnny Pacific!!

BADA$$ PICTURE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

great video from the sectionals ...and now i feel much better about my incident during the double unders during the washington sectionals...lol...although i didn't have to clean the floor...blood sweat, tears and sometimes a little piss...leave it all on the floor!!!!!

Oh ya can't wait my shoulders are the only part of my body not sore.

Okay so I was thinking how much I like most of the music that are on the videos. Is there any way we can get a list or put the song title or even just the artist somewhere? Cause they would make a killer workout playlist.

Shoulders have some of this. 3.2.1..Go

How much rest in between sets???? Is this a met con or like a 80-90% max effort - please help. I miss Bingo's Newbie commentary.

Rest as long as needed.

2-5 minutes between sets

Justin - Thanks for the help!

75-85-95-105-115-125-135 not max for a triple, just getting the shoulder shaken out

Only in CF could someone get away with pissing on themselves and not be ridiculed! Lol! God I love CF! (I'm not being sarcastic nor cynical)

That is a great picture! Must be great to practice EOD in warm, clear water. I imagine the real thing doesn't occur under those ideal conditions too frequently.

Nice to see a strict press wod! My press is definitely the weak part of my CF Total,

#26 7x3 means you stay at one weight for all 7 sets, while 3-3-3-etc means you go up in weight each set.

i find it interesting that on the day we have a video of kelly starrett talking about getting better by putting ourselves in the best fit body positions (in discussing one of the most elite crossfitters) we also have a video from sectionals of some high intensity output that includes some fairly/very bad form and technique. any burpees actually make it more than an inch off the ground? how many people lock out on the push press? taking nothing away from the competitors and the work that they put in, but it seems the judging standards were somewhat substandard and the slop that was allowed was well above what should be expected by anyone performing the wods that the athletes performed.

115, 120, 125, 130, 135, 140, 145 (Failed, got it twice with a little help on the second one)

Please tell me this photo is not Navy EOD.

I thought the sectionals video was one of the better I've ever seen.

As I was watching, I just kept thinking of all the bandwagon trainers I've heard in the past year criticizing the lack of form in CrossFit and watching those elite athletes perform at their physical end, but still executing perfect form and mechanics on their deadlifts, sled pushes, weighted thrusters, and kipping pullups, and ROWING! One comment said their form broke down on the last exercise (burpees) get real.

I've been CrossFitting exclusively since the L1 cert in August 2008, and on and off before that. During that time I acquired a shoulder injury that held me back for a bit, but it was entirely my own fault for stacking workouts toegther inapprpriately. I'm sure others have done this, where they finish the wod on the main page and see another one that looks fun on an affiliate site and going for it.

In the last couple of weeks I've seen posts from people complaining about the programming with regard to overtraining. Some have been incredulous that it is even possible to get 75 pull ups in a set on last Saturday's workout. It's possible and any of us that say we are doing it, are indeed doing it. After having done this for almost 2 years straight, even at 38, nothing seems impossible anymore. I was certain that I would finish "War Frank" after the first set, and disappointed myself when my flappers ripped off and I couldn't withstand the pain. Finishing the last set with 75/75 was easier by comparison (although time consuming) than it was to do the 75s on Saturday, with only 1 day of rest in between. I knocked them out in sets of 15.

Advice (from a nobody) try it, scale if necessary, and listen to your body. If you need to take an extra rest day and live to fight another day, do it-but complain elsewhere. We don't need to hear it.

Comment #23 - Posted by: 12th Psyop

Between sets rest as much as is needed, but not so much that you cool down. You don't want to get cool/cold before doing your next set for fear of injury. I find about 90-150 seconds works well for me. And the amount of rest tends to get higher as I increase the weight, if that makes sense. The goal here is to attain your 3 rep max. Many people try for this about about set 4-5, because if you ramp up to the 7th, often times you are too tired to max-it and fail. These are just some comments/ideas I've been told about and that work for me.

Also, it's important to warm-up, both CFWU, probably some burgener WU w/ PVC, and then a few light sets of shoulder press to get the motion going. I usually try to focus on precise technique during the lighter rep warm-up sets in hopes that the good form will carry over to the max. It does not always happen. However, we are willing to sacrifice form for moving large loads long distances quickly, right? And with that your strength will increase and as that does, your form for lower weights will improve. I hope that makes a little sense. It's early here.

Navy EOD are the only ones that do diving operations. Just wondering why you say that.

where are the ladies posting?

shoulder press is SUCH a weakness for this girl!! ugh!

Comment #68 - gman

Other Navy units dive. Navy Seabees have underwater construction teams. Navy also has mobile diving and salvage units and of course you have your Navy Seals.

Don't know why #43 stated that, but there are multiple diving units in the Navy.

Warm-up: 1. practiced double unders: 3 sets of 15 (first to sets were unbroken then lost it) 2. CF Warm-up, 3. Burgener snatch progression warm-up

Loads:
95, 115, 135, 145, 155 (2 reps, then fail), 150, 155 (2 reps, fail), 150

Then,
60 air thrusters - 30 sec plank - 40 air thrusters - 60 sec plank - 20 air thrusters - 90 sec plank: 8:18 --> slow as hell.

#69 well here you go!

Cool photo. Brings back fond memories. The yellow line is a marker line attached to a peanut buoy. The green bag is a 20 lb. satchel of C4. Attached to this satchel are two lengths of det-cord, and a strain relief line, looks like 550 cord. He is going to tie the satchel in, near a mine shape, to either BIP it, or just squeeze it. Though he is wearing SCUBA in the photo, in an actual MCM mission, he would be using a MK16 semi-closed circut rebreather. And yes, "Navy" EOD units are the only units with EOD diving missions, generally speaking.

Yo #108

Well if you do the exercize right it should take at least 15-25 minutes depending on rest time. Also, are you doing a warm up of any kind? Because I know that my warm up takes about 15 minutes. So conservatively this workout should take 30 min. with rests. If you don't like standing around to rest do something for 2 minutes like sit-ups, run, something.

Just my 2 cents in.

More failures than I would've liked... it's good because I pushed myself and wasn't afraid of failing, but bad because I don't want to have half my sets be fails.

40 min elliptical, 3.82 distance, 444 cal

175, 185, 205, 210, 210, 215, 225x1 then fail shoulda just done 215 again but decided to go big lol

did "Fran" after in 3:45 new PR!!! dropped a minute off my time because i can do all the pull ups unbroken now!!

115,115,120F3,120,125F3,125F3,120F3

Been a good week so far: War Frank on Monday (scaled to @ 66% (15 pull-ups and 15 dips instead of 15 muscle-ups) = 39 minutes), Tabatas yesterday (Medicine ball slams, Rowing for calories, Push-Ups, Treadmill at 8mph, Chuck Kellers (plyos) for 312 total reps, 39 counting minimums (no count for the running).

Today was a newly imagined bit of hell:
21-15-9 for time
Dumbbell Snatches - R arm
Dumbbell Snatches - L arm
OH Dumbbell Squats - R arm
OH Dumbbell Squats - L arm
Pullups

Used a 25# db, maybe could have done 30# without tearing my arm off. 18 minutes to complete. New PR of 8 bodyweight pull-ups to start the first round of those. ;)

haven't been wodding lately, and definitely not heavy so this was to see how I'm doing strength wise despite some back issues -

no prev 3 rep (but alst 1 rep was 72.5)

55-61-67-72.5 (failed after the second)

felt pretty good about that - definitely havent' lost strength there - although I'm probably not gaining it as fast as I would like either.

That's a great video of the sectionals!

SP triples 115-125-130-135-140-145(new 3RM+10)
Sets of 6 GHD situps, 6 BE, 3 box jumps 36" box between rounds, did ONE LEGGED BOX JUMPS to 18" box on last rounds - a cool new wrinkle for sure!

Buy in: 5 rounds of 8 kb pushups, 10 1-arm kb swings 1 pood, 10 situps, 10 du's, 3 box jumps 36" box.

Cash out: bench press 3-3-3 185-195-195. Then 10, 9, 8 ... 1 of power cleans 135 lbs, dead hang pull ups.

Sweet day! Infinite energy. Shoulder strength way better, I think from more bp and from buying rings and doing ring workouts. Love combining strength and agility training, what a rush!

Shoulder a little tender from yesterday's OHS, but didn't affect performance today. Happy with this - technique getting better. 1RM a year ago was 135.

Cashout: 100 DUs for time (1:36). Not a PR, but close. Basketball dribbling skills/drills. Then 100 air squats with no breaks, just for fun.

got pointers on form
10x45 worked on form

-Started with 95 pounds
-Worked up to 135 on fourth set and failed after
1 rep, so decreased by 10 every set after to
keep "good" form.

It's tough doing some of these WODs on my on. I need some coaching. Gotta join a CrossFit gym as soon as I can!

I heard a good one yesterday at the gym that I thought I would pass along to all of you:

I was in the middle of a workout when I heard some guys talking about pullups. One of the guys was P/U challenged and said that he had a hard time with them. He jump up onto the bar and did some p/u's, but wasn't going to full extension at the bottom. His buddy said, "I heard it actually not good to go all the way down because it stresses your joints too much. Something about the joints send signals to your brain or something; but its actually better to keep your arms bent because you keep more tension on the muscle." Ha, ha, ha.... I just shook my head and kept working out.

But, these are the same guys (because I have seen them) that put 315lbs on the bench, lock their arms out on the start, and complete each rep with their arms locked out. Talk about stress on the joints.

It's amazing what people don't know what they don't know.

Just thought that was a funny story, but after re-reading it, it's really not that funny....

Were you at the UT/NV sectionals? If not, what gives you the right to "judge the judges" based off of a few reps on video?

As a competitor I was very impressed with the Judges I had. As well many of the judges that were there, did a fantastic job of upholding standards. I can recall my last judge as being the most demanding such. And I am more than grateful for him doing so, because it reinforced ME holding the standards.

Let's get a few things straight...1. It is the athletes responsibility to move to standard. 2. It is the judges job to ensure the athlete holds the standard, and when the athlete does not hold true to standard the judge must not allow the rep.

Just like in other sports, the "REFEREE" doesn't always see what the audience/coach/players/towel boy/security guard sees. But they do their best to catch everything they can. To catch 100% of faults, 100% of the time is near impossible.

So who is to blame? The athletes who are churning out WOD after WOD to near body meltdown. OR The Judge who is not always at the best angle, all the time, to catch every bit of spilt milk. Or maybe its "CO"...the individual who judges others based upon 1 video...YOU BE THE JUDGE, cause it's not my place to do so.

PS- THERE WERE NO PUSH PRESSES. The entire movement is called a THRUSTER. Proper wording would be " Did the athletes not reach FULL LOCKOUT on their THRUSTERS?".

-"Take it for what it's worth, I'm just sayin'."-

After War Frank's intense workout, I've been pretty intimidated by the thought of more met-con this week. Some good old-fashioned untimed sets of 3 are a welcome alternative.

Finished it off with a warm-down of bodyweight bench press for max reps and 10 x 45# DB press. Surprised to get a 1RM PR after already doing several SP reps, and only 9 days after doing 1RM SP for the CFT. Some diet changes may have helped, as well as getting some good rest last night.

VERY strict Should Press... NO LEGS.. NOT PUSH PRESSES. I REALLY wanted to do the push press.. .I mean I'm training to be able to get it over my head... but just don't use your legs... in ther real world you don't have clauses like that... but train the movement corrrectly and all other varyations of the movement (P.P & P.J.) will hopefully follow right?
Did a bunch of Cleans and Clean and Jerks after the WOD. The cleans felt really good, ,but the Jerk was off.. probably becuase my shoulders were really tired. Funny how sometimes when you're tired your form is actually better becuase you're too tired to overthink it. I was just aiming for the jump so to speak and that felt good.
I did 115 lbs x 5 power C&J and 125 lbs x 5 power C&J and then 135 lbs x 5 Power Clean and then 5 F.S.

(warmed up with 45 lbs for 10 and then did some P.P. & P.J., then used 75 lbs for 10 again to warm up and lots of D.U.s as well as lots of streatching)
