1 MINUTE PER STATION, NO REST BETWEEN STATIONS, 1 MINUTE REST BETWEEN ROUNDS....

3 ROUNDS FOR TOTAL REPS

SPLIT JUMPS (JUMPING LUNGES)
PUSH JERK 55#
JUMPING SQUATS 35#
CLAPPING PULLUPS
SDLHP 55#
SANDBELL TWIST 6#

2-22-10- 345 reps (MODS- alternating lunges, chest-2-bar pullups 2.2.3.3 bands)

I can't yet handle the split jumps on my ankle, but with any luck someday, that'll be do-able.  Clapping pullups...not a good idea in bands, also not allowed in bands.  Coach wanted chest-2-bar pullups if not clapping, so I had to increase my normal assistance to ensure that chest-2-bar would still be possible in rounds 2 and especially 3. 

OVERHEAD ANYHOW 7x3
GET THE WEIGHT FROM THE FLOOR TO OVER HEAD ANY WAY YOU CAN...FOR WEIGHT.

2-23-10-  Clean & Jerk- 95, 105, 115, 120, 130, 135x1
               Snatch- 63x5, 75x1

I was using the Clean and jerk for my way overhead on this one cause the initial pull on my snatch needs more work still.  I got to 120 and I was doing squat cleans.  I have power cleaned up to 125, but full on squat cleans need to be worked on.  I knew I wanted to get to/past 130# as that is the weight where I had an epic fail last summer, resulting in my hand being injured.  Cleans and anything overhead still cause some problems for the hand, but I was determined.  After the 120, Coach said we were only going to get 1 more round due to time, so I jumped to 130.  I got all 3 reps.  It was definitely easier than I remembered it being last summer.  We had the option to stay and complete our rounds during the 730 warm-up or to do them during the 730 session.  Babur, Patty and I wanted to get a few more in so we stayed.  I got 135x1.  I probably could've done the 3, but man my hand was beginning to ache.  Patty finished her 2 remaining rounds and not to be out-done I decided to use her bar doing snatches for the last 2 reps of my round six and all of my round 7.  As usual, I bent my arms a little early.  Although beyond that, they felt a little better than they have in recent past. 

SPEED DEADLIFTS AND PUSH JERKS
Speed deadlifts 10 singles at 50-60% of your 1RM.
Push Jerks sets of 5 for weight.

2-26-10- DL-195#
              PJ= 115, 120, 125, 125

The deadlifts actually felt pretty light, this part of the WOD was definitely easy.  I switched stance every other rep, so I did 5 in sumo stance and 5 in closed stance.  I need to work on my closed stance to get the weight and comfort level up...competitions in crossfit do not allow the sumo stance. 

The push jerks felt pretty good except for the very last rep.  I actually got a several with good lock-out!  I can't complain about today.

PULL-2-INVERTED-HANG
10-1 MINUTE- ROUNDS FOR REPS (2 MINUTES REST BETWEEN ROUNDS)

2-27-10-126 (MODS- I did what we call the Rollie Pollie...laying on the floor holding onto weights overhead, and trying to get into the P2IH position (rolled on your shoulders anyway) on the floor).

I have done this WOD with this same modification before.  I have done this modification for this particular exercise on more than one WOD.  This is however the first time that I actually felt any muscle anything in my upper back, which needs to be engaged to actually do these on the rings or on a bar.  I actually still have soreness in those mucles.  That must mean that I was doing things right.  Typically I try to completely do these using my abs, therefore don't engage those muscles.  Don't get me wrong, abs are needed to get tucked into a ball, but rolling over and getting upside down is back. 

I still don't think I am able to do these in the air...but I am finally making the correct progress to get closer to the goal.  My back muscles actually inhibited full range of motion in later rounds as went on.
