15 jump squats
time=11:11
A great day today. Felt really good during the wods and smashed my old 'fran' time by 2:30! now its finally down to a half-decent time.. next im looking to get under 3mins. i think if i can go unbroken, then thats a possibility. Pullups were all unbroken, however the thrusters had to break up 11-10, 5-5-5, 5-4. So heaps of room for improvement in regards to those. Having said that i feel all the bench pressing and squats made the thrusters seem much lighter and didnt tax me like before. Im getting fitter! woohoo! My ultimate goal is a sub 2 fran (twice as fit?) which may take years but at least im one step closer.
Strength training is going well. 5x5 deadlifts finished with a 5kg pr and there is loads of room for more. Just keep doing what im doing and be patient/consistent. Wod#3 was fun. I love snatches and the 3 position snatch ive seen from outlaw is a great way to be consistent with form from multiple positions and work on power through hip extension. More of these in the future and loads more wods/strength will be inspired from 'Outlaw', hence the link above.

The following is a blog written by olympic lifter Jon North. I have been reading his blog for a while now. Not only is his writing unbelievably good, his tips on the oly lifts have done great things for my technique and efficiency in the movements. This one was recently put up by Jon, going into the details of the clean and more specifically, being able to make explosive extension either via straight or a slight bend in the arms.. Its a controversial weightlifting topic but im going to try it out and see if it might suit me and help me to get a better clean.
Row Your Boat:
I am a big believer in the arm bend. I call it “rowing the boat". Here are a few reasons why bending your arms will help you lift big weights: First of all, rowing the bar into your hips creates much more force and explosion at the finish of the pull. Secondly it tightens up that superman pull, allowing you to stay in better positions. It also allows you to stay over the bar much longer. If your hips hurt from striking the bar low on your hip, then the arm bend will help you clear the “ouch bone”! If you need more bar speed in your lifts, then please go to the store and buy some arm bend, because it will put the bar in 6th gear!
Every athlete will be different. Some will do better with straighter arms, and some will do better with more arm bend like myself. I hope this helps some people, I know this has helped many of my athletes, including myself. Do what works for you.

As the bar gets closer to
the hips, the bend in your arms should slightly increase. Once the superman pull
is over and he has stopped fighting crime, it’s time to row your boat to the
finish line! How hard you row the bar into your hips determines how much
hang-time the bar will have in order for you to get under and win the Olympics!
Every athlete will be different. Some will do better with straighter arms, and some will do better with more arm bend like myself. I hope this helps some people, I know this has helped many of my athletes, including myself. Do what works for you.

wod#2
Snatch skills:Snatch grip deadlift
Snatch pull
Hang snatch
Snatch balance
Snatch drop
Squat snatch 60kg x 3
For quality!
wod#3
1000m row
25 pistols
15 hang clean 80kg
time=9:45
Following a linear progression back squat, like the one on crossfit football. High Bar because it translates to front squats and olympic lifting which will be better for the upcoming competition. Will swap to Low Bar after the competiton.
Wod #2 was just time to focus on technique with pvc pipe. The box is going to focus alot more on oly lifting like the outlaw way which will be great and im very confident will result in badass atheletes in our box.
Wod #3 was a bastardised version of the regionals wod 2. Half the reps and both Jac and myself had to scale the weight which i was reluctant to do at the start because i think im stronger than i really am. (gotta check my ego at the door). Jac was awesome in pushing me at the end to finish the last 5 reps off instead of walking away from the bar, she beat me by a minute and is quickly turning into a badass of her own!

"Holy Trinity"
wod:
12-9-6
Power snatch (40/60kg)
OHS
Thruster
(cut-off 15:00)
Didnt finish this wod in time. Extremely dissapointed as i had chosen this wod and was so sure i could do it. I love all the movements and have been working very hard on them. My lower back was pretty wrecked from the day before and it was hard to continue to snatch after the frist round. The clock finished when i was 3 thrusters through on my set of 9.. Gonna try this again with a fresh back and im sure i will be able to finish in a reasonable time.
