[QUOTE=Jeff Kilinski;806941][B]Terry, [/B] Have the posted the Master's Div WODs for the games anywhere? I'm pulling for you. We'll be back from the woods so I'll catch it live on the webcast. [/QUOTE]
Thanks Jeff, no we won't know until 30 minutes before the WOD, should be interesting, I am hoping they have some heavy weight in a WOD instead of bodyweight movements, but whatever they come up with should be interesting. 7-6-10 5 rounds for time: -50 double-unders -10 chest to bar pull-ups [B]Time 10:15[/B], lost count did 5 or 6 rounds, DUs not so good needed more room, gym was crowded, tried new rope From the Games website...WFS [url]http://games2010.crossfit.com/blog/2010/07/2010-games-competition-format-update,608/[/url] [I]Masters will be briefed on their first workout at approximately 12:30pm on Friday at the Track.

Re: Over 50 Crossfitters Sign In
7/7 WOD
Bench Press 5-5-5-5-5 Followed by: 7 Rounds for Time: 50 Mountain Climbers 8 Pull Ups 135-145-155(f3)-155(f3)-155(f2). I guess I wasn't going to get 5x155# (basically bodyweight) today. :ranting2: 7:34. Sprinted through first set of 50 mountain climbers, and was then surprised by how gassed I got. Pull-ups once again disappointing, hard to string together kips. I think the problem is partly using a high box to reach high bar, and the box is in the way of my feet, preventing me from swinging the kip. Fun crowd this morning. The Claw |

7/10 WOD
3 Rounds for Time: 40 M Overhead Lunge (45#) 20 Push Ups 15 Pull Ups 11:52. Once again, harder than it looks on the whiteboard. Overhead lunges definitely the bottleneck. By the end, only able to take 5 steps between breaks. They gassed me so much my push ups and pull ups were impacted pretty seriously too. On the positive side, my push ups are now basically all chest-to-deck, and my pull ups are all basically legit now. The Claw |
Re: Over 50 Crossfitters Sign In
after warmup, took my gym's Crossfit class.
Today we did: 150 single arm thrusters ( OLY bar w. 25# on one end and sitting on a plate at the other end. 150 sit ups, and 300 single jump ropes. Partican as desired. I did this one a third at a time. Completed in 13:40. This is the first time that I've ever finished a workout before others. Left me time to do drills for hang cleans, split jerks, and snatch. Hamstring just about cured. So I guess the repair suggested by Stephen would work well with either back squats or SLDL's. |

Tamara Cohen, another fire-breathing lady on the forum used a dead lift program to rehab her torn hamstring. The WOD you posted above looks like a fantastic one to perform during hamstring rehab. The high-rep lighter weight thrusters will work the injured area and the other two exercises in the triplet won't exacerbate it. I'm having a bit of a senior moment, but what is SLDL? Also, I don't quite understand how you did the one-armed thrusters with a bar/plate. Were these seated? Thanks. |

Re: Over 50 Crossfitters Sign In
7/12 WOD
50 Double Unders/ 25 Wall Ball Shots (20#/14#) 40 Double Unders/ 20 Wall Ball Shots 30 Double Unders/ 15 Wall Ball Shots 20 Double Unders/ 10 Wall Ball Shots 10 Double Unders/ 5 Wall Ball Shots 11:03 as Rx'd. Double unders getting better, but I'm still not able to string 30 together, much less my Elite Goal of 40. Getting closer, and I think this one is in sight. I am trying to do all movements legit, but wall balls are my biggest offender. The combination of both squatting deep enough and getting the 20# ball over the mark on the same rep is tough! I think this really is a matter of just telling myself to do it; and take a second to focus on it before doing so. I saw this quote from Jack Nicklaus on some crossfit website or another, and it applies here: "I never hit a shot, not even in practice, without having a very sharp, in-focus picture of it in my head." Small class this morning, with two visitors Edgar (who's becoming a regular by now) and Josh from Scottsdale. Courtney joined the 6 am class and was inspiring in sticking through the WOD with all legit reps. Also got to climb a rope for the first time in warm up! Looking forward to a whole new palette of scars and marks on my body from the rope. The Claw |

Re: Over 50 Crossfitters Sign In
Stephen said:I'm having a bit of a senior moment, but what is SLDL? Also, I don't quite understand how you did the one-armed thrusters with a bar/plate. Were these seated? Thanks.
SLDL is a stiff legged dead lift. Holding a BB in hang position, set core, bend down and drop to DL position w. legs straight. The one arm thruster or one armed split jerk is done while holding one end of the BB(this would be the end that has a plate). Set core, bend legs together or do in split position w. one leg behind, weight is in rest position thru decent and then as hips open the weight is pushed up. The other end of the BB is resting in a hole on a 45# plate. The latter just keeps the BB from rolling. Today's work out was 3RFT: (scale) 40# DB snatch 21 reps (30#) right hand 21 L-sit ups (15 R) 40# DB snatch 21 reps (30#) left hand 21 L-sit ups (15 R). Completed in 16:50. Last time I did this was 11-29-09. At that time I did 20# snatch for 15 reps and 15 L-sits. All the L-sits were done w. hands in parallel position and legs were bent at the knee. |

Pat,
Thank you for the explanations! SLDLs are something I apparently need to learn - ASAP. I think a poorly executed, accidental straight leg lift is what caused my hamstring tear. Understand now on the one-armed thruster/split jerk. |
