  5. I'm not sore at all, just pi**ed about rope climbs. . . more skill stuff which continues to elude me.

    ReplyDelete
  6. Re yesterday....quads and hammies are smoked, glad today is a rest day...

    Mike P - you could be a demon on the rope man...just need a few minutes of practice when fresh. If I had to guess I would say that you rely way too much on your arms.

    ReplyDelete
  7. Wayyyyyyyy too much arms, probably not enough flexibility too.

    ReplyDelete
  8. I only did the squats for time in an interval format and my legs are smoked. I can only imagine adding in the climbs. Yikes

  9. My quads and hamstrings are in bad shape. I am not doing well with stairs today.

  12. Mike P: here are my rope observations for you (and anyone else on the rope who is heavily arm reliant).

    Short version: climbing the rope arms only, or relying on them a lot, is a luxury most people do not have. Ask Froning about losing the games because he couldn't use his legs properly (at all) in 2010 on the rope. There are three reasons why people burn out their arms on ropes: slow to perform the unwrap/rewrap move, flawed foot blocking, and general terror of heights leading to clinging (I suffer from this last one).

    Longer version: If you look at people who are good at ropes, they are on it for as little time as possible. They either do the J wrap (super fast) or they do the spanish wrap with speed. The more time you take to bring knees to elbows and rewrap your foot block (whether you use J or spanish, either way), the more you kill grip strength. Of all the things we do, I find grip strength is something that when it's lost, it's not coming back for...a while. Like, hours.

    Also, it looked to me like your foot block was unstable--it's hard to tell from the ground but toward the end it seemed like you were having trouble catching. If that's true then any coach can help you work on that--it's really about finding foot placement that works for you and everyone's a bit different. But if your foot block isn't stable, you will be forced to use up more of the grip strength to stay on the rope.

    There's also a video out there somewhere that was released around the 2011 Games that showed some helpful techniques. Better seen than described.

  16. Forget stairs, walking is not fun today. My entire lower body is toast...

    ReplyDelete
  17. I was planning to WOD tonight, but couldn't because of shoulders, not legs. I don't have full range of motion for my left arm. Its from Mon + Tue. Apparently my upper body had enough!

    Congrats to Jim C. for getting another muscle up tonight too! After all that work, he still got a muscle up and Jess got it on video this time! Woot!
