It is so important to constantly challenge ourselves physically. We are people wanting to influence each other and others we meet along the way.
This is where we can get workouts for the day, track your times, pr's, ask and reply to questions and comments.

This is also where we will share what events we are participating in and opening them up to the rest of the team to take part in.

Sleep...

If you have not... Read THIS
Also...HERE is a book on the subject.

"Get comfortable being uncomfortable."
"You can't out-train a bad diet."
Two outstanding quotes that I think on a lot...
Especially the 2nd... Not that I am great at eating and planning, but if you truly WANT to be healthy...diet matters!!! What you put into your system, matters... How you feel, what you think, your attitude...all determined by your diet!!!
Well...maybe even more important is...SLEEP!
How, in a society and world, that are as advanced as we are...do we not understand the importance of SLEEP!
Why? Because we are a go-Go-GO mentality...Sleep is for losers, it is a waste of time...
Just wait a second...that is where your body does it most important job...regulating and repairing itself!
SLEEP...DIET...EXERCISE...it all matters and it matters in THAT order!!! BUT, they all work together as well!

Think about this...

Tom Brady goes to bed at 8:30pm every night. When asked about it during a recent radio interview, he said simply, “All of the decisions that I make always center around performance enhancement.”
What does Tom Brady know about sleep that the rest of us do not? 
Maybe he’s seen one of the 750+ scientific studies that have investigated the relationship between sleep and human performance, many of which have studied elite athletes specifically. The results are compelling: Sleep improves speed, explosiveness and accuracy. It enhances our ability to process information and solve problems. It improves our judgment, composure and ability to assess and respond to situations. It accelerates physical recovery from common inflammation, stimulates muscle repair, and helps restock cellular energy in the form of glucose and glycogen. 
In other words, sleep is one of the most sophisticated, potent, and powerful—not to mention legal—performance enhancers that has competition-winning potential. 
It is also one of the most underutilized. Two-thirds of adults fail to obtain the recommended eight hours of sleep nightly. You’re probably not surprised by this fact, but you may be surprised by how it affects you as an athlete. Obtain anything less than eight hours of sleep a night, and especially less than six hours a night, and the following happens:
  • Time to physical exhaustion drops by 10-30 percent
  • Aerobic output is significantly reduced
  • Decreased limb extension force and vertical jump height
  • Decreases in peak and sustained muscle strength
  • Impairments in cardiovascular, metabolic, and respiratory capabilities
  • Faster rates of lactic acid buildup
  • Reductions in blood oxygen saturation
  • Reduction in the amount of air that the lungs can expire
Just like you can't out-train a bad diet, you can’t out-train poor sleep. In fact, research suggests that the physical and mental impairments caused by one night of bad sleep dwarf those caused by an equivalent absence of food or exercise. Put another way: Unless you’re getting at least eight hours of sleep every night, you're undermining all your hard work in the gym and on your nutrition. 
We spend too much time improving our mental and physical abilities to leave anything as powerful as sleep on the table. If you’re looking to take your performance to the next level, you have to make sleep a priority. Here are some ways to make sure you’re getting eight hours a night, from sleep expert Matthew Walker, author of Why We Sleep:
  1. Stick to a sleep schedule. Humans are creatures of habit--we have an easier time sleeping if we go to bed and wake up at the same time every day. If you take only one piece of advice from this list, this should be it. 
  2. Avoid training late in the evening if possible, as it revs up our Central Nervous System.
  3. Avoid caffeine after 2pm. The effects of caffeine can take up to 8 hours to wear off fully. 
  4. Avoid large meals and beverages late at night. A light snack is okay, but a large meal can can blunt our natural growth hormones overnight.
  5. Relax before bed. We’re all busy, but try to schedule some winding down time, like reading or journaling, into your nightly routine. The key here is avoiding “blue light,” such as computer work, cellphones, and artificial light which trick the body into thinking it’s daytime.
  6. Cool bedroom. You sleep better if the temperature in the room is kept on the cool side. 
  7. Dark bedroom. Getting rid of all noises and lights in your bedroom promotes better quality sleep.

Mindset

"Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass...
It's about learning to dance in the rain." ~ Vivian Greene
Just Start.

This is a mindset...JUST START!!! 
As we transition from the D/U's to the exercises, just start. If we can remove that moment of hesitation, we quickly find the first repetitions are always there. We just needed to get going, and not overthink it. This applies to today’s workout, but also, to so much more outside the gym walls.

It is very common for one to await the right moment to start living their life.

Waiting does not push us towards our goals – it does the opposite.
Waiting allows time to slide by, with nothing to show for it… and truth be told, our time here is limited.
There is never the picture perfect time to start, but how often do we find ourselves waiting? For that ideal moment?

We all face “rain”, and even more unnerving at times, “storms”. This is life, and also, uncontrollables. They’re going to happen.

What we do have complete control over is how we will respond to these incidents.
Will we take shelter inside, and await for a better day, or will we enjoy even the harshest of weather, and get outside?

I love the word “dance” in the second half of the quote.

It’s enjoying the rain. Embracing the adversity. And thriving in it.
This is who we are.
Let’s dance in the storm.

(Coach Palley ~ CompTrain Masters)

*Must Jump Up (two-footed take off) to be Rx...modified to step-ups if needed, but know that that is modified...better to use lower box and JUMP vs. Rx Box Height but stepping up.

The workout is the C2B's...how you work your way thru these is the strategy...everything else is focused on just moving smooth...BUT how you break-up your C2B's is the trick...one extra rep can cost you 15-20s extra rest...short bursts with short rests is the key to work toward!!!

Everyone gets a participation trophy for this one... Two (or Three) Tie...ALL TIE!
WE ARE ALL SPECIAL!!!
Honestly, it did not hit me that I tied Oz and Casey until 10s after the WOD was done...Then, like Oz, I was PISSED...I for sure could have mustered up one more rep...Completed 15 TTB at 7:00 mark...went to the bar and got 3 thrusters right away...dropped...took some breaths and, in my head said, just pick it up, then, in my head I said, just a couple more breaths...just get to 10, you will never complete this... so that is how I finished...THEN, I remembered that Oz & Casey did 10 Reps on their 18 set... SOB!!! Shouldn't have taken he extra breaths! Could have beat them both and pissed them both off!

You shall be my people, and I will be your God. ~ Jeremiah 30:22b (I think)

Back NEVER went out, I stopped when I felt the twinge...
Rested a couple days with state football...Then...
I could feel tightness in the leg & quad, hamstring and glute were all spasming a bit...
I could definitly feel something...left leg felt weak and low, dull pain down the leg...
Sciatica...maybe
Pulled muscle...quite possible
Drop-Foot...doubtful
Hypochondriac...for certain!

It has now been two weeks... and nothing really has improved.
To be honest, I am now working out with what i can do again... I just cannot sit around!!!
Those AM workouts keep me sane!

Well...tomorrow... A visit to PETE!

Back-Out!

Was a great day until the Hang Power Cleans!!! Just tweaked the back picking up the bar from the floor... Bad positioning combined with fatigue and the quickness of trying... Sucked, but maybe I got smarter... As soon as I felt the low back, I stopped...
Did NOT use a belt on the Squat Cleans (went to 225#) and the Front Squat (185 @ 21 reps)...My own little rule has been anything over 185 (bodyweight), put the belt on...

Gymnasty is the next 8-week cycle...
Time to get some bodyweight work in!
Get comfortable being uncomfortable...
Expect HSPU, HS Walks, Wall Walks, Muscle Ups (bar & ring)...and ALL things gymnastics to "pop-up" and work on!
As a side-note... I will determine right now, I will not do the HSPU work (subbing out STRICT DB Shoulder Press or BB Shoulder Press vs. the HSPU for this cycle). I want to see if I can gain some strength in the shoulders and avoid the compression in the neck/upper back.

Fugetahboutit

Did this little sucker before...

HERE
 ~ Before anyone gets really worked up... I think we did the 200m as running in FH in outside lane and just counted running to the bar as the 200m total... So a little less than 200m per round...

Today...Sept. 16... i we did the 200m as the small circle outside the back WR door! More than likely a little longer than 200m to get back to bar... Unless Oz & Casey set bars outside...
I had mine set up inside and did this little SOB at 1:30 in afternoon... HOT outside!

Warm-Up
Roll/Mobilize
2 Rnds:

BLITZ

Warm-Up
Roll/Mobilize
4 Rnds ~
50s Slow Row
10s FAST Row*
4 Push Ups
6 Alt. Spiderman & Reach (3/ea)
9 Slow Air Squats

BB Warm-Up

10cal Row
3 Front Squat + 3 Push Press + 3 Thrusters (Bar)

Rest...Then

7 Cal Row
3 Thrusters (Target Wt)

TEMPO FRONT SQUAT
OTM x 7min:
FS Complex: 1 Pausing Front Squat (2s @ Bottom) + Front Squat
1 = 50%
2 = 55%
3 = 60%
4-7 = Work to HEAVY...NOT Max (This is Deload Week)

BLITZEN (Last HERE)
5 RFT:
20 Cal Row
10 Thrusters (115#/80#)

GOAL/Strategy ~ Select a wt. that would allow you to go unbroken on the Thrusters... Think of a weight you are confident that you could get 20-25 times, when fresh! It should be tough to push thru somewhere around round 3, 4 or 5. That is a good thing... Push yourself!
NEXT objective is to know yourself...The rower can wreck your WOD, but if you are confident in your thrusters, or have selected a lighter weight, then it is time to push just a bit harder on the row!
This is a great little cardio/strength combo wod... Favors neither the strength person or cardio person!

Casey & Oz began with C&J and Snatches for 1RM.
These two Clowns begin at 5am (if anyone is an early-bird)!!!

Casey ~ C&J~185 / Sn~135 / 10:31 (95#)
Oz ~ C&J~185 / Sn~135 / ONLY Thrusters UB...no row ?!?!

Stan ~ No Tempo FS / 9:36 (75# / 100cal row = 7:15, on bad rower)
tb ~ 155-165-185-205-215-225 / 9:51 (PR / on good rower / UB Thrusters...did not look at clock until round #5 after rower...off rower at 9:16)

Dang STAN! I was ahead of him till round #4, then we got off rower at same time, he immediatly jumped on Thrusters...I took 3-4 breaths... Son-of-a-gun!!! Great push to finish... Knew I had to get under 10min...Plus trying to stay as close as possible...Knew I could not catch him!!!

O Israel, bless the Lord,
Praise and exalt Him above all forever.
