Wednesday 12.15.10

Some of the athletes at the 2010 CrossFit Games doing some "Toes to Bar" reps.
Challenge:  
HSPU Day #30

SWOD:
Shoulder Press 1 rep @ 90%+, then 3x3 @ 80%+. 

Metcon:
AMRAP in 15:00 of:
- 5 Power Cleans (155/105)
- 10 Toes to Bar

For the shoulder presses, we did this same rep scheme on 11.17.10.  Increase your weight on your 90% rep from last week, and then try and add 5-10 lbs to the 3x3 weight from last time.

For the metcon, if you can't get toes to bar, do knees to elbows.  If you can't get knees to elbows, bring your knees as high as you can.  Don't, however, go to an easier option just to keep going.  If you can do toes to bar, at the point where you miss a rep, rest for a few seconds and then get back on the bar with toes to bar.  If you start with toes to bar, then go knees to elbows when you get tired, then eventually end up doing knee raises, you will not be able to judge your progress the next time this comes around.  Challenge yourself, don't cheat yourself.

    Thanks Craig for the lesson on toes to bar...I couldn't do it before because I wasn't leaning back. Now that I know how to do it, I will practice for sure!

    HSPU: Day 30-This may be my last day of the challenge. I think I am going to convert to 10 per day for the remaining time of the challenge to prevent injury. I definitely am getting stronger....
