Late log. A. Find the transitions a challenge. Can just do one. MU okay for the first five then had to slow to one per minute. Total of ten. Dips okay but hard. B. Did 158? Too easy maybe. C. Rope climbs are a total mystery to me…not the going up but the coming down. I burn all my energy and start to burn (rope burn) my calf. Just did two then scaled. Swapped bike for run. Push press was fine 10s and fives. Swapping bike for run because no-one else is in the gym and don’t want to run… Read more »

Joined the class WOD today, of course had to modify. Here was the WOD:

Find your 1 RM thruster in 5 mins
At 7:00, 3 rounds for time:
2 rope climbs
7 thrusters at 60% of the 1RM

I found my 1 RM DB thruster 60#
And then subbed rope climbs with 9 Box step ups 20” holding 35# DB. I didn’t allow myself to drop the DB. 2:44

Then did 10 rounds max effort ass bike :30, rest :30. Hit 89 cals, maintained 72-69 rpm.

Last Wednesday I did only the Handstand Push Up Skill. It was a special night because I took Karate Brown Belt Testing. I got the belt and survived with a few bruises and gave a few bruises to the guys that were testing me. It took two days to recover. I’m very happy for the acomplishment.

A1. Done
A2. Done Easier Version
A3. I had to rest a little bit more and was able to perform only 9 Strict.
A4. 5-5-5-5-5-5 Straight legs

A. Done
B. 215 didn’t build to 1 rm last week so worked up to a challenging triple and stuck to that. That would put me at 305 but I probably could have used 225 to 235. Rather go light and move it well and fast for now.
C. Skipped for today. No rope, super hot and humid and short on time.
D. Done. 10 lbs and 50 lbs

D. Done w 5 and 25

A. Thought I’d have a go at RMU today, but modified a little to reduce volume…
– 3×3 RMU progressions on a box with foam roller
– 3×3 RMU progressions with feet on box
then:
– 1 sRMU every 30 secs for 3 mins only (6 sets)
– Skippped dips, but tried a couple of kipping RMU.
Shoulder felt ok, just tight and weak. Especially in the dip (so weak at the bottom).
B. Box squats at 160kg
C. Round 1 4:54; Round 2 4:50
D. Done with 5kg DB and 37.5kg DB

They’re fine, thanks for asking. I’m just a whiner because I haven’t used a false grip in forever 😉

Hi all, is 1RM box squat typically heavier than regular back squat?

Nichole Kribs-DeHart

Hey Chris – most people will be lifting more in a traditional squat vs a box squat but really they are two different things. A box squat breaks the stretch reflex you’d have in a traditional squat so it helps athletes develop power from a dead stop position as well as helps athletes utilize more posterior chain (most CF’s need help with that).

Chris Gramolini

Thanks, I can use all the posterior help I can get!
