“Butterfly Pull-up Technique with Chris Spealler and Christy Phillips – video [wmv] [mov]
Kudos to the eight athletes that braved the torrential downpour to come work their butts off! Everyone attacked this one with confidence. I am continually impressed with the improvements I see in our athletes.
Great class this morning! 60#SP 145#DL 8 rounds. Thanks David for pushing me to get that bar up on that last rep.
Hate that I missed you guys this morning…I felt like I needed an extra day to recoup from a nasty stomach bug. FYI- I watched the butterfly technique video … practiced it on my bar this morning and it made things totally click. Great video!
Melissa I am glad you are feeling better. Yay on the butterfly!!
Thanks Michelle! Now, if only I can get something to click with DU’s 😀
Complete as many rounds as possible in 12 minutes of:
3 Shoulder Press @ 60# (board says 65, but I can’t add!!)
5 Deadlift @ 165#
7 + 7 Missed getting that last rep by mere seconds!! Thanks Christina for encouraging me to do 165 DL. It was tough, but DL is what I need to work on.
11 rounds +3
Deadlift @ 225
Shoulder Press @ 105
Should have upped the shoulder press a little, but I was still huffin plenty at the end.
60# Shoulder press and 145# deadlift, 10 rds 6 reps. I was partnered with Cherish. She kicked butt, especially at the end!
11 rounds + 4 reps (46/115)
11 rounds + 2 reps RX’d.
11 rounds – (115/ 225)
11 rounds (115 / 225)
12 rounds + 6 reps RX’d
11+5 115#/250#
9 rounds plus 3 reps – (115 press, 225 deadlift)
Deadlifts rocked my world. 300 is my 1rm so 225 got heavy fast.
11 rounds + 2
I started with 135 press and completed four rounds with it. The third rep of that fourth round was very slow to come up. I knew I would not be able to sustain any amount of intense at that load for the remainder of the workout, so I dropped to 115. Deadlifts were all scaled to 225.
How could I forget? Thanks to Alex I., Freddie, and Jeff for the push during the workout!
11 rounds + 1
70lb press / 135lb deadlift
The press killed me. I really had to fight for each one towards the end.
65# shoulder press and 165# deadlift 8 rounds + 5
