Smackdown Wrap-up and Complete Results

  

A big thank you to Jacob Grimes of Complete Nutrition, Jerry, owner of Mac's BBQ, Kendell Solomon with Nalco, and Slade Dietz, Esplanade Rehab Hospital. These are our Gold level sponsors who were instrumental in making this event happen.

 

These are our bronze level sponsors. Extra thanks to Sid Stovall, with Ascuba Venture, they were very generous with some great prizes!

Also I'd really like to thank all the judges, esp. Mark Tuley, Xavier Sandoval, and Zach Ballard. Special thanks has to go to Kristal Bower for working so hard obtaining sponsors and cool prizes. I also really have to thank Maggie Selzer (multi-tasking Maggie, that is) for some great competition photos, and for her contributions as wod architect. Big thank you also to Kendell Solomon and Joe Willesden who were busy bbq'ing all morning of the competition, then stopped to do a brutal wod, and then went back and made sure everyone was well-fed. Really appreciate you guys' hard work!

Finally I'd like to share the complete results with you here. Congrats to ALL the competitors!

Rest Day Thoughts

Saturday Crew

First off, great job to all who joined us for "Otis."  This hero wod was created by SeaCity CrossFit, and the idea to pay tribute to Lt Col Christopher "Otis" Raible, comes from Jen Ausland. Thanks Jen, great idea! I have a feeling we'll be doing "Otis" again. It was a tough partner wod, and it was really great to see everyone really pushing themselves hard to get it done. Carrying a heavy sandbag 2k is no joke, and you guys all did really awesome. 

Sept 22, 2012

Saturday WOD

Meet at 8:45 on Ocean Drive at the staircase where Leming Ave intersects with Ocean Drive. Park at Oleander Point and walk north a few hundred yards.

"Otis"

 As a team, carry a 75# sandbag 1km

Then, perform the following in order:
80 wall ball
80 hands off pushups
80 kettlebell swings
80 jiu jitsu sit-ups
finish by carrying the sandbag 1km

• partners must stay together on the run
• workload can be distributed in any manner desired, one partner can do more or less
• movements must be completed in order, and all reps finished before moving to next
• only one partner may work at a time, the non-working partner will remain standing, not squatting nor kneeling, and hold the sandbag, which may not touch the ground at any time. Setting it on your shoulder or back is acceptable.

Strength:

3 x 5 deadlift

Let's take the strength seriously today people. Here are some good initial goals to shoot for in terms of strength with the deadlift. If you're a beginner, these are not going to happen overnight. But they sure aren't going to happen if you're rushing through our strength portion, and conserving your energy for the met-con. Strength matters, give it your serious attention. Do not rush through.

Women - 1.5x bodyweight
Men - 2x bodyweight

A thorough warm-up is in order to elicit a full participation of fast twitch muscle fibers when deadlifting. Short circuiting your warm-up is an amateur's mistake. Do about 5 legitimate sets of 5 reps before beginning your work sets. Take your time. 

Example: Female 150lb. with a 1rm of approx 225.
Her warm-up. 5 x 65, 5 x 95, 5 x 115, 5 x 135, 5 x 155
Her work sets, 5 x 165, 5 x 175, 5 x 185

Conditioning: 
For Time:
Run 400m
30 burpees
Run 600m
20 burpees
Run 800m
10 burpees

• beginner (3-6 mos) make it 10 min, and reduce the weight and box size
• intermediate 6-12 mos make it 20 min and reduce the weight 
• advanced - do the workout as rx'd
