W.O.D. 2.5.10
The Lyons Press Medley

Shoulder press-Push press-Push jerk

Keeping a barbell in your hands throughout the sequence of the 3 movements, perform 3 reps of Shoulder Press, 3 reps of Push Press and 3 reps of Push Jerks prior to re-racking the barbell. You will add weight to the barbell based on your level and ability. Perform the same sequence (3SP/3PP/3PJ) and re-rack. You will continue to increase the weight on the bar and the weight will eventually get to the point you cannot perform the Shoulder Press. At this point continue the Press Medley with only the Push Press and Push Jerk (3PP/3PJ). When the weight gets too heavy that you you fail on the Push Press you will continue the Press Medley with Push Jerks (3 reps) only.

Skill:
3 Rounds not for time
20 GHD Sit-ups
10 Knees to Elbows
5 Toes to Bar

Reminder:
FREE class Saturday 8:30 AM. If there is ALOT of snow that causes us to have to cancel this class it will be rescheduled to March. The next FREE class will be Saturday March 20th at 8:30AM. Also, please check in with the blog to see any class cancellations due to weather!! We will try our hardest to remain open, but if your safety is at risk we don't want to chance it.

Enjoy your day Shawn...

6AM-ers...nice energy this morning! I know it's hard to be up that early with excitement and spirit, but you all had it this morning! Solid Work!

Jason Lyons said...

Interestingly enough, when fresh, you should push press 30% more than you can press and you should jerk 30% more than you can push press. I am curious to see what the average is for the class when this is all said and done. So far, Aim is the only one that got above a 30% improvement and only in going from press to push press.

I imagine the percentage increase will be lower because this is not 1RM and we are continually adding on weight leading to muscle fatigue but this should show you, regardless, where you need improvements. If you did not go significantly up, ask yourself or a coach why and we will work on it.

Happy B-Day Shawn!!!

Shawn Tammaro said...

Thank you all for the birthday wishes! I'll see you at class tonight to do my 29 burpees. Also, if anyone is up for grabbing drinks tonight we will be heading out to Conshohocken (Pub or Guppies) after class. It never snows inside the pub so we should be ok.

Thanks again!

Jen S. said...

Thanks Steph! Same to you! You are such an inspiration to me :)

ps - sorry i'm such a grouch puss in the morning....haha

Hi Shawn, I hope Lizzy gets your tape for your birthday ;)

What score was i supposed to right down, the last weight i was successful on or the one i failed on. I wrote the numbers i failed on. If it was supposed to be the successful 3 reps my numbers were 80-100-95. I have no doubt my push jerk form (and my core strength) had something to do with the fact that i failed on the jerk after succeeding on the press,but also it was muscle fatigue...they gave up on me...when i attempted to redo the 100# PP & SP the second time...i couldn't even PP it.

SHAWN..happy bday! A drink in the snow sounds like a plan (especially since we'll be cooped up inside on sat) What time you going?

Jason Lyons said...

The weights that you record should be the weights that you successfully lifted. Sorry for the confusion.
