Thursday 8/27/09

For today's workout you will need to work up to your 1RM Dead lift. If you know that already, then you can go straight into this workout after the warm up.

For weight.

10 x 1 rep of 80% of your 1RM Dead lift (1 minute between starting of each lift)

In this workout, you will start with one rep at 3, 2, 1 go. You will do your 2nd rep at 1 minute, third rep on the 2 minute, etc...until you have completed 10 reps. You should do you final rep on the 9th minute.

Then,

3 x max reps of hand stand push ups. (2 minutes rest between sets)

Post weight of DL and number of each set of HSPU to comments.

265 DL...about 85% 1RM, but felt like I could have gone 10 or 20 LBs heavier, which means my 1RM has improved.

HSPU - 23, 15, 10

315 DL (1RM was 405, so I think I could have lifted heavier).
Used the bands for the hspu's: 20, 15, 12.

295 DL...could have gone a bit heavier. Need to get 1 RM again.

No HSPU- agrivates a previous injury.

DL: 315. This was my previous 1RM when we last did football total in July I think so I'm pumped. Not even sure what my 1rm is now but that is a good proble
hspu was 8, 10, 7.

MBK said...

Can anyone explain how to use the bands for the hspu? I have never used them before. Thanks for the help

JJ said...

295 DL, felt like I should have gone heavier...

Multiple sets of HSPU really shows the room for improvement in that area...

245 DL definately need to re-check 1RM... when did we do that last? June?

Used the bands to assist the HSPU's
They are great to help form and full range of motion.

Reps= 17, 11, 6

HERE IS THE BAND ASSSISTED EXAMPLE
http://crossfitednavalley.com/?p=25

This example has a three band method, but it can be done with just two...
I use on Green (big) band looped on itself over the bar, and one blue band(thinner) passed through the green to make two loops (one for each shoulder). Legs can wrap or steady on the band.

240# on DL. Should have gone heavier.

HSPU - 3-3-0....still working out the chest/tricep issues from the summer. However, my strength is far better than just 3 weeks ago when I could not do 1 unassisted HSPU.

Worked muscle-ups a bit afterward. Got my first set of 3 continuous. Small gain, but a gain nonetheless.
