120810

Today’s conditioning WOD is aptly named “T”, as it is a birthday present I wrote per her request. Some girls ask for diamonds, some ask for dresses; but our resident Spider Monkey, and current 3rd Fittest Woman in the World, only wanted a WOD with some cleverly placed numbers, and some Single Arm Overhead Barbell Walking Lunges (sorry, no shorter way to write it).

Happy birthday, #23. Here’s to this year being just a tiny bit better than last year.

My all-time favorite T video:

Strength

1a) 10X1 3″ Deficit Deadlifts @ 85% – rest 60 sec. DEMO VIDEO

Notes: PLEASE watch the demo video. Do not use more than a 3″ riser. If this movement puts significant pressure on your low back, you may use a shorter riser.

  4. I’ve been waiting for this day for a loooooong time. Today, I get to honor a true Hero- her name is ‘T’. I promise to lay every morsel of soul on the line for this sacred workout. Coach- I think your 15 minute cap is outrageous. I will finish this workout no matter how long it takes. I’m not concerned with output today- I don’t care if it takes 3 hours I will finish this workout in her honor. God Bless you T.

    p.s.- I’m wearing my Talayna Outlaw games tank top.

    All i can say is happy fucking birthday “T”… I think those were my exact words when i couldn’t link ctb. Humbling!!!
    But truly… Happy Birthday! You are an inspiration!

  28. Well, I was one of the ones that did the bench mark, but Rudy, I wanted to say thank you!!! I’ve been following your program for a while. 6 months ago I did Annie. It took 22:16 and I was about to throw up. Today, I ran 3 miles, then did Annie in 8:11. I hurt the whole way through, everything about me was screaming stop and I just pushed harder. My double unders sucked, so I was only stringing 4 or 5 together at a time, the most was 23. I just made sure when I flubbed up to get back in it. Thanks to the ab and cor work we have done, my situps were almost unbroken. I hit a PR on my power snatch the other day, and now DESTROYED my old Annie time. Can’t wait to see where I am 6 months from now.

  29. Happy birthday T! Your WOD made me furious!

    Strength
    1a) 245

    1b) 75lbs

    Conditioning
    Scaled to One armed OH BB lunges to 35lbs and had to do standing lunges. No BBs off the platforms. The forward backward movement was interesting. Was not looking forward w this one. Hard but felt good getting out of my comfort zone!

  31. Deadlifts done @ 195kg (430lb)

    Dnf – 2 + 8 in 15:00

    Then another birthday workout for a girl at our gym, 23 min amrap of loads of stuff. Deep joy

    Mfs – 242

  32. All this done after 2 hours using a manual post-hole borer this morning, then eating sugary treats all afternoon for my birthday. Not the greatest preparation. No excuses though..

    Done EMOM for 20 minutes alternating
    1a) 190kg Deadlift (no riser)
    1b) 105kg Bench Press (flat bench)

    Kinda tough but no fails

    Conditioning

    Subbed – 60kg HPS
    Chin over bar pullups
    OH Lunges with 24kg KB’s

    2 rounds + HPS’s

    Freaking tough. The lunges were the worst.

    • Note – They were hang squat snatches, not hang power snatches. And I did 2 of them on the last round

  33. STRENGTH:
    Deadlifts@455 Throughout (Standing on 45lb Bumper)
    BP@235 Throughout

    Conditioning: HOLY SHIT
    Absolutely brutal
    Finished 1 Round and 15 Lunges

    Midline and shoulders were absolutely demolished. Great workout. Looking forward to next year.

  34. BB Gymnastics – did some of my own

    Conditioning
    2 rounds + 2 snatches at cap

    Midline
    Kidding? Respect to those with any midline left to do this

  35. 1a) 435
    1b) 245, went to 205 for multiples b/c my shoulder was acting up.

    Conditioning:
    Didn’t quite finish in the time cap. Wasn’t watching the clock.

    Didn’t have time for midline.

    M/F/S – 3/4/4

  36. Completed midline and conditioning…

    “T”= 18:45 Rx… Took me a round to figure out best way to get in 1-arm position. Wrists hurt.

  37. 1a) 365 (felt too light)
    2b) 245 (felt too light)

    Conditioning:
    Screwed this one all up. Screwed up and did squat cleans instead of snatch not sure how I misread that. Also did 65 versus 75 on OH lunge. I do think I could handle 75 next time though. Goal was 2 rounds so did 2 rounds in 17 min.

    Midline: Ran out of time and will make up on rest day.

  38. Deadlift – was supposed to do 425 but that wasn’t going to happen, so I did:
    365 375 385 395f 375/1×4 405/1×2
    Incline Bench 185/1×10

    “T” 2 rds+5 snatches in 15 mins
