Monday’s workout Mobility – done! A1. first 3 at 70%, next 3 at 75% A2. 75/85/95 started a little lighter on these; felt not too bad by the third set B. 2:57/3:05/2:55/2:50 This combination is a good one for me. Little slower on the second set when DU’s failed on me a couple times. Happy with the SHSPU’s – did all the sets unbroken whereas not too long ago I wouldn’t have been able to do that many in a row. C. Z’s with 30# and SC2B’s with a 15# plate Worked on HS walk at the end. Making some… Read more »

I saw the workout today and decided to jump in the class wod and give my shoulders more rest. So today we did back squats and 200 went up really easy. So I tried 210 and failed. Oh well I gave it my best shot. Next time. The wod was: 1000 meter row 20 front squats @ 105 40 TTB time: 8:29 Good lord the row ate up all my time. I must get faster… but have no clue how to do that. I pull hard and study how to row but I just can’t hold a candle to the… Read more »

Hi Tracy, Josh Crosby in the video below, used to teach near our place and these simple tips helped me a lot. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iJl-3xoAT_U . I’m 5’7″ @ 175# and frequently keep up with many taller people at the gym . A typical one hour class covered 10 to 12K of rowing. A test we did a lot in these row classes was. 10 strokes with legs only (keeping arms straight. 10 strokes legs and swing (no arm pull). 10 strokes arms only. This gives you a sense of how much you can actually get from just the legs and a… Read more »

A: 3 Handstand sets accumulated to 20 meters each. 10 meters for the longest sets. Bar MUs 2 and 3 quick singles. Felt the shoulders from HS walks… should perhaps have taken a longer break between HSW and Bar Mus
B: Built in 5 sets from 235# to 255#
C. in 8 sets from 160# to 185#
D: Done and added 6x50m sled pull for hip power. Hips seemed a little sluggish during the cleans after the FSs
