"Isabel"

For time:
Snatch 135 pounds, 30 reps


This was the first time doing snatches, so I scaled big time to get the form down, I did 65lbs time 3:50 or so. Like i said I was trying to get form down.It was pretty good, I enjoyed it.

Re: Nik
 

Wow. It's kind of funny for me to think about doing it with 135 lbs. Hardly made it through with 45! I'm impressed. Where did you learn the snatch from?

Re: Nik
 

pre WOD core work.
3sets of 15 unanchored situps with 25lbs
3sets of 15 back extensions with 25lbs
3sets of 10 GHD's no weight, they are tough enough.

Camile, I learned oly lifting in school, I'm rusty, but I'm pretty flexible so it has been pretty fun to get the dynamic movements again.

No - I wanted to, but I don't want to injure my back. Definitely DO want to try it though. I love getting crazy looks at the gym :)

I saw on the main page comments that this had a huge impact on the forearms... where did you feel it most?

It is a good thing you didn't do this one if you were worried about you back. My back is ok now, a little sore hear and there. This WOD worried me some, I figured if it got painful I would scale or stop. So I went at it slow and deliberate,and it went pretty well.

I used the hook grip after the first set, my forearms were killing me like you read, but the hook grip helped me greatly( Thank you Richard Vanmeerbeek for introduceing me to the hook).

My back all the way up is sore in a good way. Yesterday I felt week and wobbely after the WOD, it was really interesting to do.
I saw alot of people complaining about this one on the main page comments about it being stuped and they weren't going to do it or do somthingelse. I thought it was kind of a wierd WOD but i liked it.

That is what I was hoping for was 10 rounds, but I got burned out fast, thar minuet runs out fast and then you are after another set, it sneaks up fast on yo Give it a go, i liked it.

I didn't post it but after my round was over,I did another 2 sets of 7ea for fun. My bud Brady was up and we have 2 bars set up so I did a couple of rounds with him to keep him going. I liked it, but my calves were toast afterl.
