huge day! i got 265 and 280 on my BS,then got really greedy and failed at 300. i'm pretty sure i could have gotten 290...should've tried that instead of 300...oh well, still a big lift for me! for SP, i tied my PR at 140 and failed at 145 twice. for DL, it was amazing! i got all 3 attempts at 350, 365 and 380. my total score of 800 was a super stretch goal and i achieved it! completely jazzed up right now. need to work on my shoulder strength for the next CFT.1 Back Squat 280 lbs 1 Shoulder Press 140 lbs 1 Deadlift 380 lbs
Dante Puliatti PandemoniumGreat Work, Dude!!!
Dante Puliatti PandemoniumNice video! I need your help making my CFT video :) -
pretty bummed with my performance. i let the OHS weight get in my head and was somewhat scared of putting it overhead while so tired. i had 30 reps in sight, just took to many breaks to recover.60 Burpee (Bar Facing)s 5 mins 50 secs 22 Overhead Squats 120 lbs 4 mins 10 secs 0 Muscle-ups
Great Work, Man! Your OHS were crazy good. The fact that you nailed 11 in a row at 120 is incredible... after stumbling on the first two!!! Great job! -
psyched about my performance this time! i busted out the burpees 30 seconds faster and finished all 30 OHS. i had 30 seconds left on the clock when done with 90 reps and put my hands on the rings and all i could do was swing. lol. super pumped about this performance!60 Burpee (Bar Facing)s 30 Overhead Squats 120 lbs 0 Muscle-ups
You are the man! there is no way I could do 90 reps. Too trashed by the time I get to the OHS to do them with any authority! You are the man! -
PR! i got 145 really well. next time i do this i'll try 150 and just keep inching my way up....feeling a lot more comfortable with ducking under the weight.1 Snatch 145 lbs

HUGE day for me! PR'd all over the place. i almost got 230, just couldn't quite get my arms through. so pumped! did some additional hang power clean work after i was done for practice.3 Hang Power Cleans 155 lbs 2 Hang Power Cleans 165 lbs 2 Hang Power Cleans 175 lbs 2 Hang Power Cleans 185 lbs 1 Hang Power Clean 195 lbs 1 Hang Power Clean 205 lbs 1 Hang Power Clean 215 lbs 1 Hang Power Clean 225 lbs 0 Hang Power Cleans 230 lbs

so easy! i need to go up next time. previous PR was 165 for 3. 185 for 3 this time was nothing. i even paused a bit at the bottom on my 3rd rep. loved this!3 Overhead Squats 155 lbs 3 Overhead Squats 165 lbs 3 Overhead Squats 170 lbs 3 Overhead Squats 175 lbs 3 Overhead Squats 185 lbs
Liv said, turm down the volume. I don't want to listen to him breath hard. Lol!!!
Huge Effort, Man! How are you getting the weight to back? I start with a snatch, which is not limiting because my OHS is so weak...
my new power rack is awesome. i can put the bar in the 3 different locations. one of those locations is on the outside. i unrack from there and walk it over to my mats. worked out perfectly!!
-
did this after the OHS 5x3 wod. pretty easy and I PR'd!1 Overhead Squat 205 lbs
-
PR'd on this! i got 205 for and 215 for 1rm. 215 was a stretch, but got it up nonetheless. feeling strong, just have no wind capacity right now.2 Push Jerks 155 lbs 2 Push Jerks 175 lbs 2 Push Jerks 195 lbs 2 Push Jerks 205 lbs 1 Push Jerk 215 lbs
ok, now I'm intrigued. I've never tried this without having to clean it first, which always limited my max. I think I'll try this tonight. Pretty sure your number 1 ranking is NOT in jeopardy!!
HA! i'm pretty sure your shoulders have always been a LOT stronger than mine. get it done man! i'm sure you'll destroy 215!
Well, you've been doing this a lot longer than I have so your core is a lot stronger than mine. I'll have to wear my fashionable knee brace for sure. Jerking is how I dislocated my knee the last time, but that was about 3 years ago and I'm stronger now
Well I videoed it but I've never posted to YouTube so I'll have to work on it. Your record is safe!! -
tough workout, but PR'd on the squat snatch! 135lb squat snatch is so easy now! all 6 reps of 150 c&j were done as squat clean thrusters...i attempted 165 squat snatch and was close, but no cigar.1 Squat Snatch 135 lbs 1 Squat Snatch 135 lbs 1 Squat Snatch 155 lbs 1 Squat Snatch 135 lbs 1 Squat Snatch 135 lbs 2 Squat Snatches 120 lbs 2 Squat Snatches 120 lbs 2 Squat Snatches 120 lbs Not Applicables Not Applicables 3 Squat Snatches 110 lbs 3 Squat Snatches 110 lbs Not Applicables Not Applicables Not Applicables 1 Squat Clean & Jerk 185 lbs 1 Squat Clean & Jerk 185 lbs 1 Squat Clean & Jerk 185 lbs 1 Squat Clean & Jerk 185 lbs 1 Squat Clean & Jerk 185 lbs 3 Squat Clean & Jerks 150 lbs 3 Squat Clean & Jerks 150 lbs Not Applicables Not Applicables Not Applicables
So where did you find this WOD at? Was it something like the leg program I'm going to start next week? I may try this one this weekend. I think I'm getting addicted to the power aspect of all this!
i love these aspects for sure! i got it from the same website. we need to actually talk sometime. here is the link: http://www.mikesgym.org/programs/index.php?show=program&programID=27
okay, so that's pretty advanced for me right now. I'm guessing I really need to focus on my technique before jumping into that or I'll hurt myself. I agree we do need to actually talk sometime! Mike's website is my new favorite!
definitely! i use it more for repetition of the oly lifts to get that form down. let's talk this weekend or something and we can chat about all of this. i have done so much research on all of this, i would be happy to share :)
sounds great!! I work Saturday until 1. After that I think I'm free but I never know from one minute to the next!

not rx'd. i didn't do the squat work because i'm doing my squat program. and i got really stubborn trying to get 160lbs on the squat snatch that i had nothing left nor the desire to attempt a max effort c&j. i should have kept to the rule if you miss twice, move on. instead i tried 10 times! 10! AHHHHHH!!!!!!1 Snatch 155 lbs 0 Clean & Jerks 0 Front Squats 0 Front Squats 0 Front Squats 0 Front Squats
added video proof of my stubbornness and humility. i did actually get one rep of 160, but it wasn't pretty and my squat wasn't full depth...therefore, no rep. Disappointing day.
well, i sorta subscribe to the same addage fishermen do. A bad day at the gym beats a good day at work anyday!!! Still amazing.
Ok, I will admit, Austin and I actually started laughing at your stubborness. Loved the effort and it was WAY more than I would have given. Still great job and you looked great doing it!!
lol! i know right?! i was so close i just couldn't get it done....so frustrating. 155 was no problem at all...160 has to be in my head.
Yeah, that's frustrating when it's just 5lbs. You know what they say about the proverbial "straw?" -
kyle inspired me to do some heavy dl...haven't done them in a while. had a really strong performance on this, but i ran out of weight! good problem to have i suppose. i got 390 for 1, twice, and the first rep at 390 was pretty easy...i'm thinking if i had the weight i go over 400. did some pullup work after this was done (on the minute for 8 min). really good heavy strength night....3 Deadlifts 315 lbs 2 Deadlifts 325 lbs 2 Deadlifts 335 lbs 2 Deadlifts 345 lbs 1 Deadlift 390 lbs 1 Deadlift 390 lbs 1 Deadlift 315 lbs 1 Deadlift 315 lbs 1 Deadlift 315 lbs

not rx'd, but at least i did the movements. i used my bands on the rings to perform band assisted muscle ups on the rings. still extremely tough as you still have to pull yourself up and over the rings to the deep ring dip position. doing 35 of these was rough and ate up a lot of time. 95lb sumo high pulls for 21 reps each round was also extremely tough. very rough wod altogether. and, i am really out of shape. it's been a long time since i've pushed myself through to completion for a tough wod and this felt great. added a video example of what the band assisted ring muscle ups look like....5 rounds of: 7 Muscle-Up (banded)s 21 Sumo Deadlift High-pulls 95 lbs
bands are incredible! the wod was still crazy hard.....that many muscle ups was nuts
This is sick watched your video, freakin beastly I can't hardly even do one muscle up!
That video is really awesome! You just power through them, but the transition into a dip is still ugly and unassisted... which has to be one of the worst parts of the MU. Killer! -
Stupid cold and stupid me. Decided to give this a try.....not sure why. The cold is wreaking havoc in my body. Got through the first 4 sets no problem and then on the 2nd rep of 185 my entire back had a sharp pain shoot up....I still caught the weight and stood up but did not attempt a 3rd rep. Back is very tight and I am laying on a foam roller hoping that helps. Sucky part is 185 was not to bad. Heres hoping my back is ok3 Hang Squat Cleans 135 lbs 3 Hang Squat Cleans 155 lbs 3 Hang Squat Cleans 165 lbs 3 Hang Squat Cleans 175 lbs 2 Hang Squat Cleans 185 lbs
Dude, that really sucks. The cold is horrible and helping us old guys hurt ourselves. Nothing like cold muscles. Sorry if I was the inspiration for you to try this one. Get some ice. -
Pretty pumped about this. 235 was my previous pr and this was easy6 rounds of: 2 Front Squats 235 lbs
Yeah my legs are feeling strong! I've only got 2 more weeks on my squat program and then I wil attempt a new pr! Can't wait!
Any guesses as to what that will be? Oh, I tried to watch the vid but the last two you've posted are listed as private and we can't watch.
not sure what the max will be...i will shoot for somewhere around 255. we'll see. i fixed both videos, let me know if you can see them now...

Holy pr! I pr'd 3 times on the back squat and twice each on the sp and dl. Huge night for me. I got 415 on the dl pretty easy...had I known it would be that easy I would have started higher. So pumped about my performance!1 Back Squat 320 lbs 1 Shoulder Press 150 lbs 1 Deadlift 415 lbs
This is awesome! You destroyed previous glass ceilings, Dude! 320BS and 415DL is nothing shy of monstrous! - Load next 15 workout posts
