I will post the HTFU WODs on this website and will keep everyone in the loop as much as possible.  I would also like to see as many of the HTFU crew doing these WODs together.  We will get better as a team working with and pushing each other.  I will be doing the morning sessions at 8:30/9:00am and the extra work will be done in the PM session.  Try to cordinate the evening times with each other, but please don’t plan on starting HTFU any later than 5:30pm…it takes just too long to complete.

The crew as of now…Darcy, Offutt, Coach, Andrew, Jake, JL, Ox, Mighty, E$, Furious, Ben & Cain

BB Gymnastics
1) Snatch: 2X1 @ 80%, 1 @ 85%, 1 @ 90% – rest 60-90 sec.
2) Clean & Jerk: 2X1 @ 80%, 1 @ 85%, 1 @ 90% – rest 60-90 sec.
3) 4X2 Tempo Back Squat @ 5% heavier than last week – rest 60 sec.
Notes: Quick descent, 5 counts (seconds) in the rock bottom, bounce and quick back up.

 Strength
1a) 7X3 Weighted STRICT Pullups @ 75% (or more than last week)
1b) 7X3 Thruster @ 70%
Notes: Rest intervals should be no more than the length of time it takes to transition movements. You may time this total effort, but DO NOT go so fast that there is a possibility of missing reps, or having to break sets. There should be no more than 45 sec. rest between sets. If you could not use 70% for last week’s pullups, try to use it today or at least get closer. If you did use 70% last week, go up to 75%. If you do not have a 1RM Thruster, base off of your 1RM Push Press. Racks MAY NOT be used for the Thruster.

 Skill/Strength
15 minutes Stone Shouldering practice.
Notes: If you have limited experience with a stone, then take this time and work on your technique with light stones. If you have are familiar with stones, then go a head and work up to a few heavy singles (DO NOT do many).

Midline
5 minute AMRAP of:
Alternating TGU @ 24/16kg

MetCon
The 32 Hokies Hero WOD is the MetCon for the day.  Skip the stone shouldering if you dont have time to do a 2-a-day, otherwise break this up into 2 sessions with at least 2 hours between sessions.

HTFU starting at 9am!!!!


Friday February 10, 2012

Today will be the last day of SMOLOV squats for some of you.  Max test next week, but a nice break from squatting comes before that.

Today also marks the last day of the +50 Bench.  We’ll work up to a new max and leave the program for a couple of months.  We’ve already seen great gains from this program and I believe we’ll see the same increases from SMOLOV!
