Is that 1 set of 1 rep Front Squat or 10 sets of 1 rep? |

1 set of 1 - warm-up to it quickly and be done. |

Does "1 min rest" mean 1 min between reps, or exercises? reps makes sense, but I've never seen notation like this on your site, so I can't be sure. |

Greg,
Been crossfitting for a while, but still feel like a novice when it comes to oly lifts. If I don't know maxes for power snatch and high-hang clean & jerk, should I estimate and go light until a max or heavy single pops up in the future, or should I do a heavy single then hit the workout prescribed? I'm excited to learn through your site. Also, I don't have shoes or knee bands. How necessary are they to actually starting to lift. I have some low-profile shoes I plan on lifting in. Thanks again. |

Nick -
Estimating for now is fine. I would get lifting shoes ASAP - don't get knee sleeves unless you find down the road you really need them. |

I'll be joining in. I started half way through the last cycle. Have had good instruction when I was at CF Ottawa, but not enough time to consistently apply it in a coached setting. Since moving here, I've set up a garage gym. For now my goals are to build on the base I have as best I can. (My O-lift book should be arriving soon)Workout days are Wed-Sun. - Stats: older female |

Just started following the site and will be doing the workouts daily. For all these workouts, is the % we are supposed to do the % based off what our max lift is for that movement? (i.e. for todays high hang clean and jerk should that have been 60% of our max H-HC+J or 60% of our max clean and jerk?)

Hopefully I can really improve on my speed under the bar and my overall Front squat and OHS numbers, seems they are holding me back from a PR in the CnJ and Snatch. |

% refers to 1RM of the associated exercise. Usually if different and not obvious, it will be specified. In this case, it's of your 1RM CJ. |

I'm going to start this 3 week cycle tomorrow, I'll be a day behind and may have to modify some exercises because of a groin injury. Do you think it will work out well just using the power variations of the lifts and taking it easy on the front squats untill i'm ready to hit the lifts properly? |

It will be OK - Can you back squat instead of FS? If so, just do all BS with the same Rx. |

Okay, so I totally screwed this workout up; thought it was 1 set of 10 reps vs. 10 sets of 1 rep. Also, I need to look at the videos for the H-HC&J; I'm pretty sure I was doing more of a High hang power clean and jerk. Took me a couple of minutes to catch my breath and re-place the weights on the bar.
W/U: 500m row, then 3X: PVC O-Squat (15), H-Pushup (15), Good Morning 20.45Kg (15), Dip (12,11, 10), Pull-up 22.7Kg assist (12,11, 10)
Snatch balance with only oly bar - 3-5 x 1
O-squat with only oly bar - 3-5 x 1
Power snatch - 75% (40.9Kg) x 10; 2 min rest
High-hang clean & jerk - 60% (47.7Kg) x 10 (stopped at 5 for about 15-30 sec; 2 min rest
Front squat - 70% (70.5Kg) x 1; focus on speed up
Weighted sit-ups 11.4Kg - 50 total
20-15-10 reps:
Bench jumps - above knee+
Kipping pull-ups
4:23; 2nd set of pullups were broken |

135 1x10 with 1 min rest for both
180 fs 1 rep
50 GHB
completed metcon but did not time it...took 4 mins or so. not really sure
I am sure that it kicked me in the rear though!
Pr'd week before last on snatch 180 up from 175
Pr'd BS 355 up from 335
I am feeling much stronger over all but really feel like I am lacking strength on the first pull of both sn and c & j.
going to try and focus on those through the next few weeks...
Thanks for all the info... |

Greg- I've been crossfitting for 11 months, i'm LEAN (5'11", 170lbs) with decent strength, pullups, metcon, etc. I practice oly lifts only as they appear in main site Wod's. I'm thinking of doing this 3 week cycle with you. My best snatch is probably only 100lbs, my best CJ is 185lbs, but the jerk wasn't pretty.
Questions:
should I supplement my paleo diet with milk or something else so I can get be fatter/stronger? :-)
for today's wod I would power snatch 75#, once, rest, repeat 9 more times, then rest 1 minute before moving to high hang cj right? How long of rest between the 10 singles?
High hang cj would be done at 108#, same as above
I understand the one front squat
is GHB the same as GHD?
Thanks in advance for the help, and for your contributions to the community. You were at my level 1 cert, and I was rooting for you at the games this year! |

Gene -
1 min rest is between the 10 sets of pwr sn/pwr cj. Rest as needed between exercises. No need to change your diet unless you want to gain weight - if so, just bump up the protein and fat a bit each week.
You're thinking of Josh Everett - I'm the other one. |

Hey Gregg what about a future article on fixing the "butt wink" in the squat. Unless you have already addressed this is a previous issue if you could point me to what issue that might be I would appreciate it. |

I started these WODs 5 months ago, a few months after attending the Catalyst Seminar in Boston, and have seen nice gains in the lifts and overall strength. Consistency has vastly improved, especially at what used to be max loads. I recently started eating more - on purpose - and put on about 5 pounds.
I started out at the following:
155 lb snatch
210 lb c&j
305 lb back squat (low bar)
245 lb front squat
New numbers:
180 lb snatch
230 lb c&j
310 lb back squat (olympic style)
255 lb front squat
Greg, thank you for putting these workouts together. Your journal, dvd, book, and seminar have all be very helpful in my development. |

didn't do situps or met-con. Instead did CFE workout 6x3 mins with 1 and 3 minutes rest between.
O-lifting isn't my main sport, I fight so I will typically do 2-3 of your workouts mixed in with 2-3xCFE, 1-3 Cfits, and 3-4 Tiered strength/dynamic workouts per week.
I just did a seminar with Mike Gattone and am looking forward to getting better at this stuff. |
