Warmup:
bear complex, dislocates, pullups, other stretches

Metcon:
DT (95#)
16+ minutes (do the seconds matter after 15 minutes...)

Coached up some rowing

500m rowing buy-out

Re: The Shed 'O Pain
 

10 KBS
5 pull ups
5 burpees
3 rounds

Hi-hang Snatch
Slowly worked up to 135#. I think the hi-hang position teaches when to begin the second pull. Felt pretty good.

@Tim, nice job on the high hang snatches.

Warmup:
kettlebell swings, inch worms, dislocates, kettlebell taters, OHS with PVC

Skill:
snatch pulls, worked on loading the hamstrings and getting the shoulders in front of the bar, both of which freed up the hip to snap forward to meet the bar

Strength:
Snatches (did a lot at 65, 85, 105, 125, and 145)
Didn't try for a heavy one.

Metcon:
13.1
AMRAP ten minutes
30 double unders
15 x snatch (75#)

Got two full rounds and three dubs.

Coaching:
Spent 15 minutes with a frustrated rower. The athlete was able to lower her 500 time from 1:58 yesterday to 1:46 today (and there's at least another ten seconds of power being leaked...) Major correction was "finshing the pull". The athlete was getting to the back and then rocking forward while the hands were still coming back. This reduced the stroke length and bled a lot of power in the last 8" of the stroke. This one fix allowed a full pull against braced legs that allowed the athlete to use her lift strength to pull really hard on the handle. From 118 seconds to 106 seconds in one 15 minute lesson! Life and coaching are good sometimes!!!

Wednesday November 27, 2013

Coaching:
Did 5 minutes of coaching rowing for the whole class (15 people)
Focussing on slowing down, keeping the back in good positions, and pulling hard to make each stroke count (instead of weak jackrabbiting)

Warmup:
row 750m easy, 2 easy rounds of Cindy

Metcon:
20 minute partner AMRAP
While one partner rows 500m, other partner does Cindy
Switch every 500m, rower picks up where non-rower left off.

We got 19 rounds!!! (b/c my partner kicked *** while lolly-gagged on the rower)
