''Weighted Pull-ups & BSG''(11.16.2010)

“Contemplate the mangled bodies of your countrymen, and then say;
'What should be the reward of such sacrifices?'
Bid us and our posterity bow the knee, supplicate the friendship and plough, and sow, and reap, to glut the avarice of the men who have let loose on us the dogs of war to riot in our blood and hunt us from the face of the earth??
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animated contest of freedom, go from us in peace.
We ask not your counsels or arms.
Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you and posterity forget that you were our countrymen.”

Those athletes still working to develop their Deadhang Pull-up capacity should sub in 4 x Max Rep Deadhang Pull-ups (use scaling as necessary). Take a minimum of 1 minute rest between efforts.

''Ouellette'' (11.11.2010)

Today we are honoring Cpl. Ouellette, below is an article describing his ultimate sarcrifice:
''Cpl. Ouellette was serving as squad leader with 1st Squad, Company L, 3rd Bn., 8th Marines, in the Now Zad district of Helmand province. While on a foot patrol with his squad, an improvised explosive device detonated directly underneath him. The explosion severed his left leg and peppered him with shrapnel. Most of the Marines in the patrol were knocked over and stunned, but Cpl. Jesse Raper, who during the time was a lance corporal and a junior Marine in the squad, quickly came to Cpl. Ouellette’s aid.
After Raper placed a tourniquet on Cpl. Ouellette and dragged him out of the explosion crater, Cpl. Ouellette immediately assessed the situation and began to direct his Marines to provide security for their position. The IED explosion stemmed into an ambush, and Taliban forces began moving in and firing upon the squad’s position.
As leader of the squad and senior Marine in the patrol, Cpl. Ouellette directed fire from his riflemen to thwart the Taliban’s attack. Though he was bleeding severely and being treated by corpsman Petty Officer 3rd Class Matthew Nolen, Cpl. Ouellette continued to motivate his Marines to keep bringing their fight to the enemy combatants, who were just meters away attempting to envelope upon the Marines’ position.
Cpl. Ouellette then reported the attack and requested reinforcements over a radio transmission to the company’s headquarters. A friend of Cpl. Ouellette, Sgt. Randy Moffett, described Cpl. Ouellette’s tone as calm and direct.
Vengeance-piloted Marine Corps AH-1 Cobra helicopters arrived to the scene in moments after Cpl. Ouellette’s request them and delivered a precise and accurate attack of firepower to the Taliban fighters who were danger-close to the Marines. Cpl. Ouellette continued to direct the attack from the sky over the radio.
When describing the close air support from the Cobra’s, Raper said the Taliban were met with their fate, “and it wasn’t a good day for them after that.”
The expertly-applied fire from the Marines on the ground and in the air soon became the demise of the Taliban’s attack.
Cpl. Ouellette never submitted his charge of the squad during the firefight and only relinquished when his Marines were met with reinforcements and began to return to their base – an act deemed courageous in the Marine Corps, according to Marines on that patrol. He was evacuated by ambulance where he lost consciousness and succumbed to his wounds while en route to the base. He was 28 years old.
''The part he played for this ambush was phenomenal and incredible … and seriously heroic,'' said Moffett.
For his conspicuous gallantry, bold leadership, wise judgment, and complete dedication to duty, Cpl. Ouellette was posthumously awarded the Navy Cross, the highest award presented by the Department of the Navy and the military’s second highest award for valor next to the Medal of Honor.''

''Heavy Press 5-5-5'' (11.01.2010)

"It is of interest to note that throughout history, the rise and fall of nations has seemed to coincide with the rise and fall of the physical stamina of their people.
Greece rose to the height of her glory (leaving her indelible mark upon the world) during that period when the physical vigor, the patriotic zeal, the independence and freedom of her people were at their height. Athletic professionalism for the few and a lack of strenuous participation among the many brought about a decline in the national physical stamina and a consequent decline in the power of Greece.
The same may be said of the great Roman Empire and of Egypt. History indicates, too, that a decadent nation realizes the costly blunder it has made only after defeat at the hands of a physically superior enemy. A period of reorganization follows and attempts are made to imbue the nation with the need of physical improvement."
--"Gymnastics and Tumbling", Aviation Training Division, Office of the Chief of Naval Operations, US Navy, 1944.

9 x Deadhang Pull-ups (Supinated)
-Samson Stretch
-Sumo Squats
-Shoulder Opening Drill (wall)

Notes: For the Rowing portion of the Warm-up Drills use a damper setting of 1. Rowing with the damper setting this low will make each pull feel like it provides far less resistance (Remember to take note of how much wattage you are producing during the first 20 pulls or so).
Athletes attempting to compensate for the likely degradation of pace/time will usually begin increasing their number of strokes per minute. Raising the number of strokes per minute will NOT yield a better performance, emphasizing the following will:
While remaining focused on ideal/proper Rowing mechanics attempt to dramatically slow the speed of each stroke's ''recovery'' phase (return towards the flywheel).
The drive and recovery speeds should be as consistent as possible from stroke to stroke. Maintaining this consistency is as simple as applying the following points of performance. The chain should remain taught during the entire pull and recovery; slack in the line, slapping, and other irregular motion should be interpreted as too much speed on the return.
Hint: Keep the following thought on a repeating loop in your brain during the warm-up, ''About 1 second on the way out and 2 seconds on the way back in''.
