  1. Cj,
    With kb swings kb vertical or just overhead?

    • Wes:

      I think unless stated otherwise, kettlebell swings programmed here on the Competition WOD would be assumed to be to vertical/fully overhead.

      • Wes, usually when we do swings it’s assumed to be Russian swings (to slightly above eye level). Given the lower weight though I’m not sure about this one.

  2. A. 10/9/2-10/10/2-10/7/2 Did t2b strict
    B. 70×3, 75×3, 80×2, 85×2,90×1, 92.5(f), 90×1, 90×1 Having problem with the technique. Should I do jerk behind the neck instead?
    C. 10kg/13/20 – 15kg/18/15 – 15kg/10/13(kip)- 10kg/10/8 Supinated weighted C2B.
    D. 8:29

  3. Lasse what’s your issue with the jerk technique?

    • Thanks for asking Randy.

      I have problem with the timing, not hitting the lock-out when my feet hit the ground. I’m also not reaching far enough with my front foot.

      However, my biggest problem is strength I guess but I hope this press intensive program will help me with that.

      • Gotcha… Don’t know if it helps but today during my jerks, when it got really heavy I dipped TOO much and tended to leak power in that way before the hip extension. I see this in a lot of CF. Just something to look for. Corrected it and got the weight on my next attempt.

        • Yes I had this problem before and it could definitely be one of the issues now as well. I will play around with it and probably film my next jerks.

          Thanks a lot for the help Randy, I really appreciate it!

  4. A. 12/4/2, 12/3/2, 12/3/2 Did t2b strict
    B. 165×3, 175×3, 175×3, 195×2, 210×1, 215(F), 215×1, 220×1, 225×1
    A little too tight to get into a good overhead position today. Should have mob’d more yesterday.
    C. 20#/14/10, 25#/10/8, 25#/10/8, 25#/10/8
    Supinated weighted C2B.
    D. 8:21
    All KBS unbroken. 5/5/5/5 on push press. For some reason the push prss was easier with my left arm than my right (I am right-handed).

    • Talked to another follower on the blog who did part D much faster. My mindset today was to get all the KBS unbroken, but even so I paced the push press too much/rests were too long.

    • John I find the same thing when working with one-handed kettle bell drills…left is always easier than right. I think it may be because I’m paying attention to form/technique more than relying on muscling it?

  6. A. Done
    12/12/12
    20/16/14
    2/2/2

    Undershot the first set of HSPU

    B. worked from 175-230lbs. 2nd set of 2 reps at 205lbs I kinda tweaked my low back bringing the weight down to shoulders. Progressively started to be a little painful. Couldn’t push it

    C. Went with how I felt
    Weighted c2b @ 30lbs
    Did 15 UB c2b for all sets
    Did 12-15 UB ring dips for all sets

    D. Skipped due to back.

    I think i just irritated it, nothing serious, but I look forward to rest tomorrow

  7. Had nothing today. All the volume and heavy weights caught up with me. Warmed up and began working on the jerks and my shoulders were not having it. Failed my first single. Attempted the pullups and my shoulders were stiff and tweaky. Called it a day. Spent the next hour mobilizing my shoulders and upper back. Even had another coach walk up and down my back. Hard to walk away from a workout but my body needs a couple days to recover. This is a huge wake up call how serious the rest day mobilizing is and I will be much better about this in the future. Glad I realized it before being hurt.

  8. lumbago still impeded me so i had to take it easy…

    a. done, with normal press instead of hspu

    b.ups to 225 lbs as 100% (which is 10lbs pr and was very easy)

    had to skip c after first round and d.

    so i just did some rowing intervals 1600m 100m easy 100m hard (below 1:30)

  9. Quick note on Volume guys!

    The cycle has a ton of volume so be sure to listen to your body. WE DONT WANT ANY INJURIES. If you feel tired, rest or limit the sets of exercises that you do. Don’t be afraid to scale back. It will help you progress as an athlete and learn more about your body.

    Make sure that you are eating well and mobilising as much as possible. Sleep is also essential so make sure that your getting enough.

    Everybody reacts differently to volume. Some can handle more than others. Being able to handle less isnt a sign of weakness its only a sign that you react better and get gains differently to someone like Rich Froning who can handle a shit load.

    A good video to watch by Crossfit Football explains this:

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pbGVf9iKGBU

    • I am not sure how I feel about this monkeys analogy . . . certainly not how I would have explained it, but Tino is absolutely correct in saying that everyone will react differently to volume. Some of you will be tempted to add volume to this, and if your physiology and lifestyle (sleep, nutrition, etc…) supports it, that might be ok (as a general rule though, I discourage excess work unless it is limited to low-intensity skill sessions or aerobic restoration). For others, this volume is really tough.

      If you are one of those who finds this volume difficult, you need to first analyze your lifestyle – are you doing the things within your control to recover well. If those are all in line, there is a chance that you just respond better to lower volume training.

      Just know that the program cycles through different volume phases. If it’s just tough, suck it up and hang in there. If you’re feeling nagging injuries, you need to back off and get adequate recovery so that you stay healthy enough to continue to train and progress.

    Today was by far one of the most frustrating days in awhile. I’ve been struggling lately, not feeling 100% in the gym. Yesterday was the first day in awhile I felt great, so I thought I finally had got over my hump. Then to have today happen… Not sure where to go from here. FRUSTRATED!!!

  33. A) T2b 12/12/12 Sub’d rope climbs w/ towel pull ups. HSPU’S 12/14/27 last set felt great so just kept going. I think that might be a PR.
    B) Triples: 185/185 Doubles: 235/235 Singles: 275/295(miss)/305(PR). This was awesome. The weight felt good, 295 was a technical error. So when I missed 295 I knew to just call it a miss and move up.
    I was reading your posts about adding stuff but on a day like this with all the chest and back, I just had to add some incline bench. 5 x 5 135/135/185/225/225

    C. CTB (weighted): 2-2-2-2 Used a weightwest for the weighted CTB, not sure about the exact weight.
    CTB max reps: 18 – 17 – 17 – 10 Did butterfly-kip
    Ring-Dips max reps: 13 – 10 – 8 – 8 Did kipping ring-dips.
    D. 6:43

  35. A. Done with 5 hand stand negatives (couldn’t seem to get even one strict HSPU), and hips to rings instead of rope climb.
    B. 41kg(70%), 45kg(80%), 51kg(90%)
    All successful lifts but none felt great.

    Called it a day!

  37. Took today off due to getting zero sleep at work last night. Thought it would be counter productive to push through it. I will do this tomorrow after a good night sleep.
    Great work everyone! Enjoy your rest day!

  38. Track workout with Invictus Endurance –
    8 x 250M sprints with 150 super easy walk in between
    averaged about 38s for all sets – fastest being 36 and slowest being 40s

  39. A. Done, HSPU: 24,13,13

    B. 3reps: 205, 215. 2reps: 225, 245. 1rep: 265, 275, 285(f), 285(f)
    Shoulda got 285 would have been a PR.

    Chest to bars limited by hands hurting and ring dips by swinging too much on the kip, a bit frustrating.

    I am terrible at swings, think I am going to start doing 30 unbroken at the end of every workout.

  41. At home with my sick baby daughter yesterday so I did this one today.

    A: 12/16/2 – 12/14/2 – 12/12/2 (T2B felt effortless today, used to be one of my many weaknesses :) !)

    B: 65/67.5 – 72,5/77,5 – 80 – 85 – 87.5(f) – 80 (felt solid up to 80kg, 85 was with a press out)

    C: 10kg/15/15 – 10kg/8/11 – 10kg/8/6 – 7.5kg/5/7 (strict weighted c2b, kipped c2b, kipped ring-dips, 15 unbroken kipped c2b is probably a pr :) , then I kind of die :P )

    D: 8:25 @20kg. Unbroken swings, pp in sets of 5 per hand. Failed to press out on the last pp so it took me 15 secs to redo it :D

    Regarding the volume. I feel that I’m probably one of those that cannot just suck it up (though I definitely think it is beneficial for me). I’m also a bit on the old side (38) and with 2 kids everything is not always about optimal recovery for dad :P After a big workload I often have trouble falling asleep and last week I just did not “feel” like working out after the active recovery day. For me I think these are signs of “under-recovery” and I then need to back off. For me it’s definitely not worth pushing through one time too many and get some injury.

    And in the spirit of recovery I will be away traveling this weekend. Hope to see you all on Monday!

  42. A) Done – HSPU’s – 32, 29, 28

    20 Kettlebell Push Press (24/16)
    (10 each arm – switch as needed)
    5.17 min (push press with 20 kb, cause shoulders were all burned out. Didnt want injuries!)

  47. A
    Done

    B
    Happy with this one, set a new PR with 130 kg for the last one. (2 kg up)

    C
    Didn’t have time… :\ Took 10 min break and then did D.

    D
    6:45

    I only set the KB down once, that was after the first 2 rounds. Push-presses was easy on the right arm, but much harder on the left. Both strength and technique was better on right arm.
