Post Cert COMA

So the Level I Certification was over this last weekend and it was awesome. Freddy, Mike, Tyson, Miranda, Rory and Jolie were also awesome. It was great to be among the great at a sport that I have such passion for. Some information I already knew and some just made me do alot of thinking. The lecture that made me think the most was the programming lecture. Not just because I want to do my own programming but when I look at the mainsite WOD or on an affiliate site I look at it in the M, W, G format and how that format will effect my power output. Anyway, two days and 3 WODs later I am certified. The elevation was not the greatest to me but I can not make excuses I just sucked at "Fran" at elevation. Here is a video of me doing a 54" box jump and Josh at 43"

Josh can jump higher we just did not get it on video.

I did not do the posted WOD. I was still tired and did not feel up to par so I worked on my snatch. I did the Burgener warmup, some muscle snatchs, power snatchs and full snatches with 65# to work on my form and technique. Here is a video of a hang squat snatch with 65#.

29 something was my time. I was still not into it, did not feel right. The 25s were great and then everything fell apart from there. I tried the butterfly and could not get into a rythmn and (as always) pushups took way to long. Not a good day.

With a continuously running clock do one pull-up the first minute, two pull-ups the second minute, three pull-ups the third minute... continuing as long as you are able.

19+10

This was a PR and it was a great day. I used the butterfly for most of the WOD and it felt great. Faster cycle time means more rest. I did not feel it until about 14-15 and then as I was tired I started to kip as I lost the rythmn.

I am glad I went to the certification and am now going to finish all the provisions to be legit so I can start training individuals that would like me to.
