Re: I've got a Monster in my Pocket!!!
 

Yesterday

800m run

2 x 10 each:

OHS, 45#
hip/back ext
GHD sit-ups
pull-ups
ring dips

Deadlift

10x135
8x225
8x275
5x355
5x375
5x395
5x415
5x435

"Tabata Something Else"

pull-ups 13-13-12-7-7-5-7-7 = 71/5
push-ups 16-16-16-16-13-10-10-10 = 107/10
sit-ups 14-14-14-14-14-14-14-14 = 112/14
squats 20-20-17-11-15-13-13-15 = 124/11

Total = 414/40

Had to wait an hour and a half after I finished the deadlifts to do "Tabata", because I didn't have enough time left to do it before the class I had to teach. Made it a lot later than I like to work out, and also put me in recovery limbo. Lousy showing.

800m run

2 x each:

20 forearm to instep lunges
10 back ext.
15 abmat sit-ups
10 kipping pull-ups
10 ring dips

Weird WOD; I needed something upper body today, since my legs are toast from the past week, so I decided to give this a shot. I don't know how I feel about it. I don't really feel that the first element is really suitable for a metcon. The risk of falling off the rings in a fatigued state is too great.

Re: I've got a Monster in my Pocket!!!
 

Chris,

I don't know if you were ever following the "heavy metcon" thread related to Gant Grimes' Hybrid program, but I just did a workout called "Fight Gone Heavy" that I lifted from there, and I loved it:

[U]Apply FGB format to[/U]
95lb jumping back squat
135 power clean
36" box jump
135 push press
Row (it sucks enough already)

I thought it would be good for anyone with a strength bias. If you decide to try it sometime, would you let me know how it goes? Strong work on those squats, by the way. What bar position/depth do you usually use?

Re: I've got a Monster in my Pocket!!!
 

DNF'd on "Kalsu" yesterday. Just completely burned out; a lot of stress in life this week, in addition to the usual holiday crap. Haven't been eating enough carbs either, so I cranked that back up today.

500m row
20 hip extensions
warm-up presses

5 rounds

5 x 175# Press, 10 sec rest between reps
2 min rest
25 kettlebell swings, 2 pood (unbroken)
2 min rest

3 rounds

10 hang squat cleans, 135#
30 toes-to-bar

205x1 (PR)

5 rounds

Lost time to fixing a tangle in my rope before my third set of double unders and mentally quit after that.

1000m row

2 x each:

20 forearm to instep lunges
10 glute-ham raises
10 toes to bar
10 chin-ups
10 HSPU's

Tabata Thrusters, 135#

5-5-5-4-3-4-2-3 = 31/2

10 min AMRAP

5 pull-ups
10 push-ups
15 squats

11 rounds + 5 pull-ups + 3 push-ups

Thrusters were awful, more than I anticipated. Not happy with the half Cindy. That pace would barely put me at my 20 min chest to bar PR. Doing it immediately following the thruster workout didn't help, nor does the increased height of the pull-up bars in the new box, but I should have hit at least 13-14.
