Mobility Monday @ 5:30 & 6:30:
Shoulders! Today we'll use our lacrosse/baseballs, rollers, and other objects to work out kinks in our shoulders. Our goal is to find the "hot spots" that are causing pain or limiting mobility, and get them loosened up.

Weekly Notes:
We will be hosting the Sectional WOD 11.3 for KoP athletes on Thursday from 5-7PM. This weekend there will be T & P Adventures on both Saturday and Sunday at 10AM since CrossFit King of Prussia is hosting a Kids Certification. T & P Adventures meets at Frosty Falls- Family & Friends are welcome.

gymnasts are strong...i am sore...i am not flexible...i will start doing gymnastics once a week in my training...gymnasts are strong...that is all...

shoeless said...

Jason, what kinds of gymnastics stuff are you going to start doing in your training? Any major points you took away from the weekend you want to share with us all?

Jason Lyons said...

i have finally realized that i need to maintain my body's flexibility. i will try to incorporate more ART or maybe hot yogi every once in a while. in terms of actual work, i will be working mostly strict things on my gymnastics day.

strict pullups
strict muscleups
straddle to handstands
hollow rocks

my 2011 goal is a strict muscle up and 2012 goal is strict pressing my body weight.

Highly recommed lifting with JAY E. His energy in WOD 2 yesterday made me feel like a monster!! It ranks very high on the list of the best time I have had in 10mins!! It was a great day with a great community...every experience just gets me deeper in love with this sport and its players.

Peterson said...

jason,

Could you explain the difference between "strict" and just a regular pullup/muscle up? Is it no kipping?

Jason Lyons said...

peterson,

yup, you got it...

strict muscle up, means you pull the rings down and transition with active shoulders and press up.

strict pull up is simply a dead hang.

pure strength, not using a kip for the advantage. i am not saying i will never do a kip again in a workout...however, if i have 15 dead hang pullups, i will bet you that i can get 30 or more kipping.

congrats on the mu by the way. i want to watch you do it and talk to you about it. maybe you can help me get to where i need to be.

No problem Jason. My first one (Pre-WOD, which only Lindsey saw the whole thing) went really smoothly. The 2nd one, after the WOD, which EVERYONE saw, was not as good.

On my transition in that 2nd one, I have the issue of having not enough kip combined with having the rings too far out in front of me, not tucked into my armpits. Then I have to work to get them there, and finally do the dip, which was a struggle.
