Great squat! For the pull-ups, more negatives in your future! Keep up the solid effort and they will come.

Dear Coach Michele, Thanks for your support. I was training during the open M-T-W-T- rest on Friday – OPEN wod Sat – rest Sun. For 5 weeks i followed this pattern. Actually It was hard. I started this week as follow: M-T-W – rest day TH – F-Sat – rest day Sun. Do you think that i am going in the right way? My concern is for example Today (Thursday): Gymnastic Challenge, I will miss this WOD due to my training scheme, at this moment I am thinking to go to the box and perform the WOD on my rest… Read more »

I think switching your rest day to Thursday was a good idea. Don’t worry, Gymnastics won’t always come up on Thursdays. We rotate the focus each day/week so that nobody misses out on anything! As for wanting to complete the Gymnastic Challenge, you could if you want and consider it active recovery (listen to your body here) or you could use it as a warm-up or finisher later this week. How is your body feeling?

HOW TO SAY??? After the Open We got the easter breaking week here at our country, so I did the 15.5 on March28th (Sat), then the box was only open for Monday-Tuesday and Wednesday (March 30th-31st and April 01st). I went to the box on those days, and suddenly I felt with pain the rest of the week … I do not if it was due to the 15.5 (i did it rx’d 10’29”) … I begun on last monday and in the part A i am trying to improve my technique (PR is not my target at least now),… Read more »

A. Off 183#. Set 7 at at 133.
B. 15:19
Done with PFT-style pull-ups (incline pull-ups which are surprisingly hard for me) and 83# front squats (should have gone heavier).
Hoping to have enough time tomorrow for running intervals.

Nice work, Genevive. Do you remember the lean-away pull-ups that have been in some of our finishers (Part C)? Those would be good for you to work on for your PFT test.

I haven’t been able to hit the workouts this week, we had a pt test yesterday (canceled) and then a late training day so 2 days gone.

I decided to go with monday’s first part, and then today’s workout

A) High Hang / Hang Clean 10 sets, worked up to 245lbs
from today A) worked up to a 300lb rep and then hit 275×5 pretty easy
B) ran a slow 3 mile instead, need to start adding miles because of an upcoming change in scenery

Thanks, dude. But, I think I get DQ’d for working off the rack. That was a tough one, quads are mush today.
