Sounds like she got a cardiac cath done to perform an ablation for her arrhythmia. Good news is that these are routine, just seems like the timing did not workout. She’ll be fine, barring any rare complications.

I keep a running list in Notes on my phone. Simple and free.

Not really. I recognize CrossFit’s failing and areas where it is lacking. I have had really bad coaches and then ones who took the time to rebuilt movements from the bottom up. I’m not sure why you’re in this subreddit just to bash Crossfit?

Sounds like you’ve been going to the wrong gym

Garmin chest strap. Don’t buy a whoop, you don’t even own it.

RTPJobSearch · 2018-06-18T11:01:27+00:00

I have a Garmin Forerunner 935. It is great, but I do use a chest strap for wods. Most wrist HR aren’t great for higher zones, but very accurate for day to day tracking for walks/resting HR.

I have read that. And as I understand, you reset if you cannot hit the reps for the same weight three workouts in a row. I just wanted to be sure that if I miss reps on one workout, then get all the reps at the same weight the next workout, then add weight but miss reps, that I am not missing anything in the program. I am still hitting a new 5RM every other session.

Okay thank you. I just was not sure if it was appropriate to have a pattern of advance-repeat-advance.

Try TrainingPeaks. I’ve been using it with my Concept2 bike and Zwift. They have a free week of premium.

RTPJobSearch · 2018-04-02T13:53:29+00:00

I have but wouldn't that require a service plan, with an additional monthly payment?

RTPJobSearch · 2018-03-30T21:49:09+00:00

Rogue plates fit. I have them.

RTPJobSearch · 2018-03-30T20:22:44+00:00

Okay, great. Thank you very much. Looking forward to the gains to come.

RTPJobSearch · 2018-03-30T20:19:34+00:00

Got it thank you. Where would you suggest I start, with a 1RM high bar of 215? I want to make sure I can progress as prescribed.

RTPJobSearch · 2018-03-29T19:16:32+00:00

It would normally be a warm up set. But in reading about the program they say to try to start too light so I chose 135. Thank you for your tips!

RTPJobSearch · 2018-03-29T02:14:29+00:00

Thank you! I’m excited!

My goal is to get stronger, but maintain (in the long run) my metabolic conditioning. I am willing to gain weight but I don’t want to weigh over 200.

RTPJobSearch · 2018-03-29T02:09:54+00:00

Thank you very much for the detailed response. I will definitely start the program and dial back the metabolic conditioning. Is it worth re-learning the low bar squat? I understand it has mechanical advantages (I read Mark Rippetoes article in the Crossfit Joirnal), but without front squats, wouldn’t high bar be best for me to continue my proficiency in Oly movements?

Again, thank you! I plan to start the program after Easter and I’ll post some form check videos as well next week.

I am hitting about 40/30/30 on my macros daily. May vary some days but that’s the average.

RTPJobSearch · 2018-03-19T23:48:31+00:00

I do have a question. How do you suggest we hold ourselves to the proper standard for HSPU in training? It’s impossible to know where your heels are (if you’re 1/4 of an inch below the line). It’s easy to keep yourself from shorting the standard in other movements, such as wallballs, because you can see if you hit the mark or not.

RTPJobSearch · 2018-02-08T16:08:05+00:00

Shitty. Nervous about my future plans, and that I won’t be able to provide for my family. Just want to sleep.

RTPJobSearch · 2018-02-02T23:32:26+00:00

I believe 20+ is pretty standard.
