Here's an example of training for all of you who are competing in the Challenge on Saturday:
Monday - wod
Tuesday - wod
Wednesday - wod/off
Thursday - off/practice/foam roll
Friday - off/practice/foam roll

And this is the example of practice/warm-up that everyone who's competing in the Iron Curtain can do during all this week. Perform daily, work on weaknesses extra. Skip the gymnastics warm-up this week.

Row 10-15 good powerful but relaxed strokes
5-10 thrusters with empty bar/ladies bar
5 overhead squats (bar)
5 squat cleans from mid shin (bar)
5 push press/push jerk (bar)
1-2 MU's from straight arm (RTG ONLY!)
2-4 HSPU (RTG ONLY!)
2-4 pistols each leg (RTG ONLY!)
5-8 Pull-ups (CTB for RTG)
5-8 Wall balls
10-30 Double Unders
20-30 Abmat sit-ups unanchored
Sprint 100-200 m

Go through the list once each day. I'll have it written on the whiteboard tomorrow morning.

Keep checking the Iron Curtain Blog for the exercise description, scoring systems etc.

Posted Ramzi's uber plan of attack on the Iron Curtain Blog.
Gotta get that edge by any means possible!

November 16, 2009 | Registered CommenterLeo S.

Did you establish a Ramzi player profile??

Hey Britt, if it helps, I have been practicing my DUs at home with the trick you told me about on Thursday... Seems to be "clicking" more and more... we'll see!

Squat Clean and Split Jerk x1:

95-115-135-155-165-175-185fffffff

225# on the C+J (ties my PR).

190# on the other part of the workout.

Got 20 consecutive DU's after the workout, so I was pretty excited about that.

November 16, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterSean A.

That furniture commercial is the stupidest thing I've ever seen! I am now a stupider person for watching it.

November 16, 2009 | Unregistered Commentergeorge

Sorry, more stupid!

November 16, 2009 | Unregistered Commentergeorge

225# pr

November 16, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterAndrew

C&J 115# PR; 95# for the WoD. I liked this one.

Practiced pullups, DUs and did a couple sprints after. DUs are getting much easier thanks to Britt's trick.

November 17, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterMolls

What's the DU trick?

November 17, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterChris H2

Single single double single single double...

Seems to be working well for me. I think I got 10 unbroken last night after the WoD.
