Sectional Open WOD 1:
30 DU (60 singles)
Power Snatch (55lb rx/43lb me)
Rounds: 5 + 1 snatch

Re: Bec's WOD Log
 

Mar 21:
Skill - Front Squat
5x 63lb
5x 83lb
3x 83lb - bailed the last rep due to being too far forward
3x2 83lb
This should've been at increasing weights, but I was a little overzealous on the weight I went with to start, so I didn't go up.

WOD: 30-20-10
Row for Calories
DB PP (30rx/20 me)
Box Jumps (anything over 20" RX/20" me)
TTB (L sit-ish swings)

Time: 18:39
A bit bummed, I was hoping for 15:00, the DB PP really slowed me down, and for some reason I couldn't string together my TTB at all, swinging too much to get more than 2-3 even at the start.

I think my press is actually getting WORSE, and its the main thing I've been working on at home with 3-5 sets of 10 @ 43lb whenever I think of it. For some reason I just couldn't get over my sticking point with my left shoulder at all. Crappy.

What's up with the shoulder? Is it a hurting sticking point or just weaker than your right? If weaker, why not hit some single arm work? If it hurts or feels sticky, hie to the chiropractor or PT!

It's sort of weird honestly, it doesn't seem to be a true mobility issue in terms of lack of flexibility, it doesn't hurt or feel "tight" even. It is more, If I don't thoroughly warm up, I sometimes feel like my left shoulder hits what feels like a solid spot that can't be moved through. When that happens I sort of feel like I have to "go around it" if that makes sense, as if I need to pop it but can't. I've never had any known injuries to the shoulder and don't have pain, it is rarely any soft of problem more a rare annoyance.
In terms of the press specifically, it was the muscle fatigue on top of the hard stop on the left, I just didn't have the strength to get around it.

Sounds like some junky buildup in there. Have you ever had Graston or ART?

Noop. Given that my experiences with medical professionals range from simply bad to downright traumatic, I tend to avoid them altogether.

Ugh, I hear you. i had to pay a $30 copay to go to my GP to have him tell me what i already knew - that I needed PT on my shoulder. AND ignore his prescription for naproxen (for inflammation) but not to use ice (because it's not inflamed). Um.

Luckily I found a good Graston person and a good chiro that are used to athletes. The chiro even has a copy of the Paleo Solution on his bookshelf, so we are friends now. Haha.

Re: Bec's WOD Log
 

Yea, I don't really know if its a big enough problem to seek out a dr/chiro/etc. There is an oly coach here I hope to train with eventually, who is also a PT, so I figure if I get to that point I can likely get some help from her if it is still even an issue.

Re: Bec's WOD Log
 

Cool - maybe just attack it voraciously with a lacrosse ball/mobilitywod for awhile, see if it helps.

I am also so awesome, that I miscalculated the weight I had, so I thought I had only got to 135, until I started putting together the weights I had on the bar just now (2x15lb + 2x10lb on each side, dunno how I can incorrectly add up exactly 100lb of bumpers..). Regardless, 135lb was a Q2 goal, so either way an early win!

Awesome PR - I love when bad math = kickass numbers.

Also, i had to do rowing Nancy in the height of summer, a million degrees out and no AC in the gym. I really, really thought I was going to die. Good job finishing!

No joke, I was so glad just to finally have weight on the bar, I spent 6 months stuck doing sets at 75lb whenever everyone was going for 1RM.

I am definitely better/faster at rowing, but the rowing Nancy sucked way more (did it running about a month & a half ago), while it was faster this time around I had to rest throughout and broke up the OHS quite a bit. I was also the only one in the group doing OHS, the others did RX weight but FS instead, so that was good too.

8 rounds + 1 roll.

Was not as horrible as expected, it was certainly not a lung burner, but it sneaks up on you in terms of muscle fatigue. Between the dips and the wod my shoulders are smoked.

Was really hoping for something in the 12's. Run's were much better this time around, but my kb swings seemed really slow. Also, we set up stations, and by the time I got in from the run, someone had stolen my PU box, so that slowed me a bit in round 1, but I still shoulda been faster :(

Thanks, I'm just continuing to keep moving forward. My internal mantra since day 1 has been "It can only get better" so I'm keeping that repeating through my head every time I'm at the gym.


Anyway, thanks to tornado, I've been without electricity since Friday night. Both my diet (currently consists of about 75% PB&J), stress levels, and sleep are are suffering quite severely, and it definitely impacted me at the gym today. During the warm up I really felt like I had bit off more than I could chew and was going to pass out, but I kept with it and made it thru the wod, felt a bit better after.

Well I can row somewhat decently (I could probably do 500m under 1:50), but running is pretty brutal, I might even say it is one of the worst movements for me. The running made the rows pretty crappy though, I had to actually full stop for a few seconds once each on the 800m and 400m row cause I was close to being sick.

Re: Bec's WOD Log

Skill - Muscle ups :(
Unfortunately given that I can't even simply lockout and hold my own body weight on the rings, this one left me pretty much out of commission. I really want to be able to do this stuff, kills me that I can't, gave a few attempts at the various assistance work (from a kneel and from seated), but it is just so far off from the strength being there to even do that.

Re: Bec's WOD Log
 

Excellent Chipper WOD, they are always tough, I wouldn't say your time is super slow, were you giving it your all?

Re: Bec's WOD Log
 

Yea, the wod ran way over on time though regardless. The other 2 people in my group actually had to leave, skipping 2 of the movements entirely, so I was there by myself continuing to go about 15 minutes late because it was expected to be more like a 15 minute wod, not a 25 minute wod. The bodyweight stuff really slows me down, surprisingly it was the DB cleans that were the worst hold up, but even so I was hoping to be south of 20 mins.
