ok - that video was ridiculously awesome.
i don't think that settled any rumor questions, however. |

Jason -
Check the exercise demos page. The muscle snatch is the same as the muscle clean in principle. Db split snatch is exactly what it sounds like - snatch 1 DB at a time from about knee-level (start between the knees) and receiving in a split position. Alternate split legs. |

For a nominal fee of $5000, I would be happy to personally teach everything about hooping. |

Well, now I just have to figure this out... What is wrong with veganism/vegetarianism? Are there any articles I can take a look at?
By the way, I started watching that video and did not "figure it out" until about half way through. I am a moron. That was very unkind. Funny as hell though! Will there be more? |

$5000 is a bit expensive. How much for the yoga class? |

4 rounds for time of:
100 m sprint
10 Turkish get-ups – 25% BW
1 min rest
Is this 10 TGUs each side?

I hope for the $5000 that the hoops are included in the price. :) |

Good for you, Aimee — I know how hard it can be to bounce back after a setback like that. It's great that you've found a sport that really challenges you to be all you can be. Hooping is great; I've read some great things about it on Robb's blog before.
I also particularly loved seeing the results of how Greg's yoga training has helped him manage his anger so well, and become such an example of peace on earth. Namaste, brother.
And sign me up for that Cert! |

I'm glad Aimee has finally found the path to virtuosity and true physical health through a plant-based diet. Now I will have someone to eat with at Nationals next year! She has seen the light. Now it is only a matter of time before Burgener and Everett follow suit. ;-)
Sweet video. The dumbbells on the treadmill are classic. But you forgot to show the hooping on the Bosu scene!

Greg,
I am a collegiate track athlete currently in season. I run the quarter mile and train 5 days a week. How often should I do performance menu workouts? Will my recovery be affected adversely by the running? Additionally, what would you recommend so far as staggering the running workouts and the lifting (i.e. lifting in the morning etc.)
Any other suggestions you might have regarding athletic prowess under my circumstances would be greatly appreciated.

Colt -
This training will definitely fatigue you for running - I'd say first and foremost to taper it prior to any meets. As far as scheduling, you'd be better off running fresh and lifting afterward if possible. |

In his Perf Menu article on shoulder rehab, Mike Rutherford recommends only doing external rotations, but not internal. I've got wonky shoulders and have been doing internal and external. Would Mr. Rutherford be willing to elaborate on his recommendation?
Should I post this question on the Forum?
Thank you for your help. |

Aimee,
When you are ready to take your hooping to the next level, you'll need to increase your strength with a weighted hoop! http://www.sports-hoop.com/

Regarding the 1-arm split snatch: an earlier reply specified alternating legs on the split. What about arms? Is this 24 on each arm per round? Or 12 on each arm per round?
Thanks. |

Thanks for the comments Greg. Your site has been a major benefit for us in our OLY training.
IL Championships results
Snatch 80 , missed 85 twice and done it regularly before the meet
CJ 100 , missed it the first attempt and didn't get to try 105 as planned.
Great learning experience. Thanks again for the site. |

John -
For the split snatches, you're doing 12 per arm - I'd like to see all 12 done with each arm consecutively with an alternation of the splits legs every rep. |
