WOD 6/30/09
“Compound Fracture”

21 Deadlifts
21 Push Press

15 Deadlifts
15 Push Press
500m Row
9 Deadlifts

I made this one up the other night and test drove it. It was a lot of fun! 
Deadlifts and Push Press will be scaled to about 60% of your 1 RM to keep the pace and intensity high. If you are a firebreather, you can scale up a tad (75% 1RM). Because of the Push/Pull movements in this WOD, this is meant to be done with a rower for maximum benefit. If you have absolutely no access to a rower, then you can run. You should be aiming for around 15- 20 minutes in this WOD.
Allison said the Monday classes went really well although some folks didn’t make it, so now is the time to redeem yourselves, unless you are injured or sick. Consistency is a major key to providing you with results, so if you are inconsistent because you don’t like the particular workout, the group, or think the instructor is too hard, then you are only shortchanging yourself. The progression to elite fitness is mechanical competency, consistency, then intensity. Stay true to your goals, stay committed and work hard – the end result will be worth it.
While you are all grinding away at the WOD I will still be in super-duper Eureka, Ca. with the folks, trying to stay warm. It’s sunny, but cold. That and it seems nothing has changed here since I grew up and left town….
3-2-1…GO!

This is going to be fun!
I am leaving for my summer training Mountain Warfare Training this Thursday, but I’m sure the Marine Instructors will keep us active and busy. I will be back and ready to kick it soon.
Stay Motivated!

Scott was the man of the day at the am class. Big weight and fastest time. His muscular endurance is catching up to his brute strength. That shit ain’t fair!
