130403 http://wp.me/s2O3Xp-130403 Today is the third day of Smolov for the week and last heavy day of the week. Don’t know what 13.5 is gonna look like, but Dave Castro says its going to be ridiculously hard, and a real test of heart. [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gb6HpuO2WpU&w=… View Post

130402 http://wp.me/s2O3Xp-130402 Today we’re going to continue our plunge into the smolov cycle. Remember during this strength cycle you should choose between HBBS or Front Squats. Don’t mix it up. Always make sure we are getting full range of motion on each rep unless stated otherwise. View Post

130328 http://wp.me/s2O3Xp-130328 I was pretty excited when I was found out I was right about the barbell aspect of 13.4. I’m also glad it’s a sprint. Today’s an “off day.” But those don’t really exist so here’s what we got. Some mental reps and stretching. Also if you’ve got any strategy… View Post

130327 http://wp.me/s2O3Xp-130327 Even though I have a hunch we’re looking at some barbell complex from the games site I’m gonna program one in here today as well. Lets make sure we’re getting perfect reps in each time. We’re taking tomorrow off to do 13.4 on Friday.
1. Behind the neck… View Post

130326 http://wp.me/s2O3Xp-130326 Today we’re going to move some weight. I’ll also use today as a baseline for the next couple of weeks. The good news is you’re going to move some weight just in time to rest up for 13.4. The other good news its gonna be fun. Let’s get it.
1. 20min to… View Post

130325 http://wp.me/s2O3Xp-130325 Figured we’d start the week of with a nice little AMRAP. We’re going to move some weight this week and wanted to make sure we emphasize mobility. Make sure you sprint through this one. Should look for 4-5 rounds. Scale the weight where necessary. Also, I… View Post

132113 http://wp.me/s2O3Xp-132113 So, we’ve all seen the 13.3 wod. I’ll give you today to go for it. You’ve got 12 minutes. My suggestion is to make sure you finish the wall balls in under 8 minutes. If you have a sub 7 karen then you are in the game. The DUs will be your rest, but don’t… View Post
