WHITEBOARD – 18 January 2011

Workload:

Mobility WOD

Then:

Max Split or Push Jerk
*If you do not have technique for the Jerk perform 3-3-3-3 Push Press. Work up to max weight in the 4 sets of 3 for the push press

Then:
50 Burpees for Time

Notes: For the jerk, try to keep the bar in a solid position in your dip.  The biggest fault (once someone has a good set-up) is to dip with their torso coming forward and the bar coming off the rack position.  If the bar leaves your rack position before you fully extend (drive the hip straight) you are missing out on a lot of power!  Take a look at a solid dip position from an athlete over at Performance Menu.

 

Bottom of Dip Position

    worked up to Max

    225 Split Jerk

    I did something to my neck over the weekend and it’s still not right. Couldn’t get my shoulders straight overhead.

    50 burpees for time: 3;36

    *Sidenote: if you want to know what it feels like to be set on fire while underwater, put icy hot on, workout for a bit, then take a hot shower……I would advise against it as it is not a pleasant feeling at all.

    50# dumbbell 1RM (R&L)
    feeling a nerve-like tweak in my lower back, left side. left calf is sore, and back of left thigh is tender (unweighted, before workout). something to keep an eye on

    I like the TGU. Good skill work and whole-body balance and awareness.

    (Personal note: 1 rep dead-hang pull-up before and after workout. woot!)

    Since I am coming off of the lovely neck spasm, I didn’t want to push my luck with any overhead movements, so i did:

    Front Squat work:

    180# 5 sets of 5

  • John Donne – Meditation 17

    No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main. If a clod be washed away by the sea, Europe is the less, as well as if a promontory were, as well as if a manor of thy friend's or of thine own were. Any man's death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind; and therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee...
