Hey Coach!

Knee is gewd for the most part! I favor it at times, especially when I’m working on squat re-patterning and mobility, but apart from that, it’s good! Kelly’s Supple Leopard has been HUGE in this area. I really thought I knew how to squat prior to him, but his coaching cues in his book has been a game changer for my recovery.

Thanks for always checking in on me!

Came down with a serious head cold and sore throat this weekend so gave it what I could today living on the I’m sick mantra of “neck down slow down, neck up keep up”. However, I struggled to breath through the gunk in my throat/lungs. A. Deadlift: 365#x5, 385×5, 405×4, 415×3…I still remember the days I struggled for a 405 1RM. B. Jackie as Rx 7:18 (I believe my PR is around 6:50)…off rower at 3:35 then the fight for air in my congested lungs began. Thruster 25/15/10, pullups 20/5/5. …finished with a non-timed Angie to work out some more… Read more »

Jackie RX 9:32 total (row 4:26.3) Jan.3 – 10:00 total (row 4:16) Not real sure what is going on with my row…seems to get slower and slower…I watch the videos and I start out strong…but I crash way to fast. Although, I knew my row time was much slower so that made me push myself harder for the thrusters (25/13/12) and pull ups (5,3,then all doubles using Michele’s technique) I couldn’t get a good grip around the bar on… Read more »

This helped me a lot when I was starting on the rower https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UlWUPkXrq24

Also, breathing is super important, inhale on the pull and exhale on the return, the sound of the erg actually gives a very good rhythm that you can try to synch up with your breathing. I use it to control my breath during the rowing as a way to keep composure and it helps me move in a more fluid/fast way.

Thanx…I think I need to forget the clock and just concentrate on my movement..making sure I’m doing as he says (legs,hips,arms,arms,hips,legs). Watching that…I think I try to pull with everything all at once and for some reason have it in my head that if the handle doesn’t go all the way back in I’m not going to get a good pull…prob cuz I’m so short and my pulls are very short. I’m going to try to focus more.

Also, if you follow the sequence you are going to save a ton on strength all over the place. The difference in your legs is almost instantaneously noticeable.

Had to take a few days off because of a bad flu; which sucked, like a lot but it is flu season now as winter creeps closer, anyways back to work. A) In Kgs, OT3M: 105 x 5 (70%) 120 x 4 (80%) 127.5 x 3 (85%) 135 x 3 (90%) I had the posterior chain strength to do more reps in the second and third sets but my grip failed me. Farmer carries are in my horizon. B) Jackie (Rx), time 11:40. My splits were 3:50 (good steady rowing), 3:40 (five sets of 10), and 4:10 (kipping singles was… Read more »

Are the thrusters @ 45 lb total (ie, empty barbell) or 45lb dumbbells?

empty barbell! The alternative would be pretty awesome but sounds painful 🙂
