WOD - Saturday, 11/7/2009

Happy Birthday Matt Swift & Ian Botham!!

Main Group WOD

"Team Rower Challenge"
Each team is allocated 1500m to row per team-member (teams may be different sizes), eg a team of 6 people will be required to row 6 x 1500m = 9000m in total.

The individual distance that each team-member rows is entirely up to the team, and it may be a different distance for different team members.  However, the minimum distance that needs to be rowed in any one turn is 250m, and the maximum distance that may be rowed in any one turn is 750m.  Team-members must take turns in a sequential order and every member must row.  After each turn on the rower, 15 burpees and a 20m farmers carry (M:20kg DBs F:15kg DBs) must be completed before that team-member is allowed back on the rower.  Only one set of dumbells per team may be used at any one time.  Burpees may be performed by multiple people at any one time.

Average calories (total calories divided by number of team-members) will be the teams score.  The highest average will be the winning team. 


Trainer WOD
To celebrate Matt & Ian's Birthday there will be a Trainer WOD at 9:30pm.  All are welcome to stay and watch.

As Many Rounds as Possible in 20 Minutes of:-

1 x Round of Cindy (5 Pull Ups, 10 Push Ups, 15 Squats)
Power Clean 85kg

The number of rounds of Cindy stays at 1 throughout....the Reps for the Power Clean increases by one each round, eg

Round 1 = 1 Power Clean
Round 2 = 2 Power Cleans
Round 9 = 9 Power Cleans, etc

Highest number of rounds completed wins.

Essential Reading - Minimise Spinal Movement

"...as we approach peak working loads or muscle fatigue, it is important that at the moment we reach close to no velocity or bar movement, that our spinal position remain the same. That is, as we begin to move toward what is ultimately a near isometric contraction (mid-way through a press you get stuck) there should be no deviation what-so-ever in your set up positioning. The set up and pull is the same for deadlifting a hundred pounds or two-thousand pounds. Post-maximal loads can be safely handled in an iso-metric position if there is no deviation from an ideal or best-fit set up. We get into problems when there is movement in the spine under load..."  Read more

Fitness in 100 words

  • “Eat meat and vegetables, nuts and seeds, some fruit, little starch and no sugar. Keep intake to levels that will support exercise but not body fat. Practice and train major lifts: Deadlift, clean, squat, presses, c&j, and snatch. Similarly, master the basics of gymnastics: pull-ups, dips, rope climb, push-ups, sit-ups, presses to handstand, pirouettes, flips, splits, and holds. Bike, run, swim, row, etc, hard and fast. Five or six days per week mix these elements in as many combinations and patterns as creativity will allow. Routine is the enemy. Keep workouts short and intense. Regularly learn and play new sports. ”
