yeah, I always use the metal clamps. We have a bunch of rogue plastic clamps, as well as some by another maker, and all of them are pure crap.

Back angle is nearly horizontal and it forces you to leave the bar way out in front of you. You try to compensate by catching it way on your toes: Work on staying back on your heels throughout the first and second pulls, keeping your butt down and back angle consistent during the 1st pull and keeping the bar close to you. |

Yeah definitely the two things that I need to work on. After seeing it, I know that if the bar is forward at all, I'll probably never be able to save it, especially since that was a higher weight snatch than I've ever attempted. I think my starting position could use some work and that would translate into the rest of the movement. I also think my feet didnt really move much from their starting position.
Thanks for the analysis Neek. |

my guess is that the box jumps are going to stop a lot of people and really sneak up on you. even 5 rounds means 75 box jumps on 24" which is a LOT.

Annie got 12+1, Anything over 10 rounds is going to be completely elite. Games competitors, etc. I think for a really good "regular joe" 8 rounds could be a great goal. This one is all about the box jumps. That's gonna be the separator.

i think that i will do the first 2-3 rounds with normal box jumps and then switch to fast step ups/step downs. i am already dealing with some ankle **** and shin splints so completely destroying my legs is not worth it.

That is what my initial thoughts were. The box jumps are gonna finish a lot people off.

We're short on time this week so Coop and I waited at the box for the 13.2 announcement and did it immediately.
got a 136, 4rds + 1 box jump didn't put the shoulder to overheads down, was goal #1 my deadlifts were not the best, I was trying for form and being slower than I needed for that weight. Box jumps were the suck, I repped them all from the top and only missed one of them. I'm pretty sure I could do it a little faster getting the DL to move faster and not break any of the DL sets in half. coop got a 245, presently she's 5th worldwide for women.. out of 11! |

Anyone else think that is a really weak weight for the men? It seems like a minimum of 185 would be right for this one. Of course that would require 2 bars so I guess that's why they do it that way. Also, unless someone is double shock loading on box jumps, shouldn't see any Achilles injuries. Our box does not participate in or even care about these open wods but I might do this one on my own just for the heck of it.

As for the Achilles comment, the critic about CF is that it is encouraging the rebound jump which is what can blow you Achilles. A lot of people will immediately jump up after landing in order to speed up the reps. |

From what Ive read about the rebound jump(which is what I've always done for about 4 years now), the theory isn't the rebound itself but landing with just half of your foot on the box and letting the other half "hang" off the box. One thing I have read is that many people don't recommend rebounds if its higher rep sets(25+ or so). |

oh for just the deadlifts yeah that makes sense since even 185 is not heavy.
as for the box jumps, here is a good example of what i mean and a pretty heated discussion about them: http://sexyas****.org/2012/11/07/box...my-achilles-0/ the rebounding box jump falls in the same category as the SHDP, butterfly pullups and a few other movement that people know they are not good for you and yet Crossfit keeps pushing them in competition settings. |

if you think about these movements, you don't need scientific proof to see that they are probably not that great for your body. all you need to do is do one butterfly pullup and you will feel the amount of stress vs. strict or even kipping pullup. also, while not scientific, there are way too many accounts out there of ruptured Achilles and SLAP to make me want to not do these things since i don't have to. trust me, you will get a great workout even if you don't do butterflies or rebound box jumps. |
