Training Board is about…

Weightlifting, nutrition, paleolithic and "Zone" dieting, weight loss, my workouts, and reflections and reviews of various related topics that interest me. But mostly, I just use this blog to track my workouts.

If anything I have posted seems useful to you, let me know with a comment.

About Me

I'm a level I "sports performance certified" USAW coach, and I train, and work as an assistant coach at Asheville Strength and Conditioning, a great little gym here in Asheville, N.C.

I work with clients who want to get strong and fit, and specialize in helping older, detrained individuals reclaim their fitness and youthful athleticism.

Also, it should be said that I used to train with, and still love many of the folks down at CrossFit Asheville. A lot of the older portions of this blog deals with CrossFit and reflects my earlier fascination with CrossFit's "fitness as sport" model of training. I've learned a lot from CrossFit since I first discovered it, back in late 2008, even though my own training is now more focused on developing pure strength and capacity in the basic strength lifts.

CrossFit Asheville WODS • November 10, 2010, at 10:15 pm

Single Support Deadlifts Rowing Pull Ups and Sprints

Warm-Up Calisthenics. Pull-ups (10, red band). Push-ups (15). GHD extensions (10), Deep Overhead Squat Sit, Overhead Squats (10) and Sotts Press with PVC (10).

Strength. Single Support Deadlifts both legs x 5 x 45 / x 5 x 95 / x 5 x 110 / x 5 x 120 (pr) / x 5 x 125 (pr). Sore glutes and back later, like last week ain’t healed up right yet. This will help.

WOD. From CFA today:

700m row
Immediately followed by
3 rounds of:
100m sprint
7 chest-to-bar pull-ups
For time.

I finished this in 6:14. I used a red band on the pull ups, like a puny arm. It’s ok. I’m getting stronger.

Additional volume. Leaving most of this duty until tomorrow. Did do unassisted pull-ups 1-1-1-1-1-1-1, in just a minute or two. Gonna do a modified Russian pull-up progression. Tomorrow 2-1-1-1-1-1-1. Etc.

Mobility work. Crawling and rolling and dynamic stretches.
