WHITEBOARD – 26 January 2011

Workload:

1 Round of:

5 Intervals of:
30s Kettlebell Swings (55/35 – To Chest)
30s Rest

5 Intervals of:
30s Wallballs (20/14)
30s Rest

Then:

5 Rounds of:
5 Goblet Squats (25% bodyweight)
5 Box Jumps
*Rest 60-90s inbetween rounds.

Notes: Don’t kill this workout. Keep a good pace but do not consider it absolute sprint work. For the second part, it is not meant to be overly difficult. The goblet squat weight should be just enough to help keep your torso erect  but shouldn’t be overly difficult to complete the 5 squats. The box jumps are meant to be done explosively and fluidly. Try to catch the jumps in a 1/2 or full squat. Pick a height that is about 70% of your 1 rep max. If you don’t know your highest box-jump pick a height you are confident with.

What are we looking for in regards to the picture of the day (all comments in regards to my beauty aside)?  What do we want the line to intersect to show a solid receiving position?  Also, can you see the flaw in my positioning?

    Think I am glad I worked out before the WOD was posted. I created some fun for myself with double unders, one arm kettle bell snatches and handstand holds to forward rolls

    Double under PR: 23 consecutive

    Dana’s flaw? Ugly surfer shorts? Or is the line supposed to intersect with your ankles?

    The line should be more over your mid-foot, not towards your toes.

    Also, you seem to have grown a horn. I would get that checked out. Kemm could recommend a good doctor’s office…

    Off day, getting ready for the big Dunkels vs. Dynamite game. Chip Davis doesn’t want to pull a hammy!

    Hatch Cycle Week 12 Day 2 “The Final Countdown”
    Back Squat:
    1*5 190
    1*5 220.5
    1*5 236
    1*5 236

    Front Squat:
    1*5 162
    1*5 190
    1*5 202.5

    So, Hatch is done. It was truly satisfying to see the hardwork pay off with some massive gains. Here are some pre and post numbers that I’ve been keeping track of:

    Pre-Hatch:
    Back Squat: 315
    Front Squat: 270
    Clean and Jerk: 230
    Snatch: 178
    Strict Press: 155/60
    Push Press: 210
    Deadlift: 415

    Post Hatch:
    Back Squat: 370 (+55)
    Front Squat: 310 (+40)
    Clean and Jerk: 275 (+45)
    Snatch: 215 (+37)
    Strict Press: 170 (+15/10)
    Push Press: 230 (+20)
    Deadlift: 430 (+15)

    The numbers speak for themselves. It’s been a great three months.

    55#KB swings, 20# wallballs, 2pood goblet squats, 24″ box jumps.

  7. Freddy's avatar Freddy says:

    Wodded. Substituted strict weighted pull ups for the box jumps because of a foot pain issue.

    3 reps at 25#
    2 reps at 45#
    1 rep at 55# for a PR.

  • 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...
