Something I never imagined doing was RXing all the WODs in the Open, but I did! Naturally there were some movements that when we got to them, I couldn’t get past them, but that’s besides the point.. It also helps that they completely overhauled the Open in my opinion, to be more accessible to the…
The last time I PRed my Bench Press, was years ago, and it was around 150lbs. I asked my friend Nick to come to the gym with me me tonight, he hasn’t been to CFTC in years. He came, we benched together, and I ended up PRing at 175. It was unexpected, I didn’t count…
How I’m getting stronger and improving my weights, I have no idea, but that’s fine. I’ll take the progression of it. Today we did Back Squats 5 sets of 3 reps. I did 275 3 times, which… to me was pretty crazy. That was only a little off my 1 rep max! WOD was: 3…
The ole never miss a Monday plays a large role in this one. I hadn’t done Nasty Girls since April 12, 2013. Nasty Girls is the following: 3 RFT 50 Air Squats 7 Muscle Ups (or 21/21) I did 7 bar dips, which is something I’ve never done in a WOD before. 10 Hang Cleans…
Deadlifts?? Clean and jerks? I’m in. 14 or 15 Min Time Cap, thank God.. Death By Clean and Jerk Complex 1 DL + 1 C&J (185/130) *deadlifts increase by 1 every minute* So I don’t remember if it was 14 or 15 minutes for the time cap, but I do know that I pushed it…
Clean and Jerk 3 x 3+1 2 x 2+1 then For time: 10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 Hang squat clean + 2 lunge + Push Jerk (95/65) Toes to bar The C&J were great, of course. I didn’t push it, and I also knew this wasn’t being recorded. I chose to focus on warming up and technique rather than…
10 Min EMOM. We got this. Power Snatch – Hang Power Snatch – OHS I believe I had 75lbs on the bar. Good times. WOD was 12 min AMRAP: row for calories 15/12 12 Box Jumps 6 Squat Snatches 135/95 I never squat snatch. I did this time! All my reps. All the rounds. I…
Back-logging a little bit, but whatevs. My site. My rules. My old Strict Press PR used to be 105. Today we did 5 sets of 5, with increasing weight of strict press, and I did 105 on my last set of 5. Happy that my shoulders and upper body are getting stronger. WOD was…
Wall Balls? I’m in. A bunch of filler around it? I will make do, but please, let me do more wall balls! For time: 1600m Row (I biked 2 miles each rowing session, as the rowers were full) 100 Double-unders (attempts for me.. I did not want to do burpees!) 50 Wall-balls 100 Double-unders 1600m…
Just like it sounds, we had a 3 Rep Max Power Clean, and I PRed it! I went back and tried to find more info on the last time I did Touch and Go cleans, 3 in a row, at this weight and I don’t know that I’ve done it before. So. PR for me!…
