I am unable to do the double unders at this time due to an injury to my calf. Anyone have any suggestions of an exercise i could do as a replacement?
I reckon Tababta sqts would be good and avoid impact to the calf.
Focused on catching the weight lower on the clean and push jerk. Still not where it should be. Shoulders burned during the double unders.
REPS
133: 5 minutes of double unders
25: 5 minutes of 95 lb clean and push jerk
61: 3 minutes of double unders
15: 3 mintutes of 95 lb clean and push jerk
41: 1 minute of double unders
9: 1 minute of 95 lb clean and push jerk
Still can't do doubleunders; I got maybe 3-4 each round. Spent lots of time with the rope tangled around my ankles and trapped in the tread of my shoes.
While I was disappointed with the jumping, I was pleased with the cleans and presses. I decided to try using 95# - I was unsure if I safely and solidly put that weight above my head. All the cleans were fast and butt to the ground and all the presses were tight. 11-9-4 for the rounds. I gained confidence after the first round; I'll be looking to try this weight overhead in future workouts.
Finished the WOD with another 9 minutes of regular jump roping.
Nice job Kevin!
modified slightly
instead of double unders did 100yd (approxim) sprints and 5 burpees = 1 round
5 min - 4 rounds (had to stop and discipline kids)
5 min - 20 reps clean and push jerk
3 min - 2 rounds
3 min - 10 reps
1 min - 1 round
1 min - 8 reps
should have pushed harder on both but it was pretty tough WOD
I have a hard enough time with single unders so I just jumped rope with the help of billy joel as the time is shown on my iPod & did all tle clean& push jerks with a 2inch thick large grip bar @ 85lbs.

moped up the floor to SAY GOODBYE TO HOLLYWOOD 3:40 and I said HELLO to CROSSFIT once again.
If I could do double unders for 30 seconds I'd be happy! 5 MINUTES? PLUS, 5 minutes with 95# clean and push jerk? To all of you that can actually perform this WOD as stated - VERY IMPRESSIVE!!
I can't bring a jump rope to my gym. So, I did as many clean and push jerks as I could with 95# until I almost met Fainty (Pukie's cousin). Then I did lunges (4 alternating steps) stopped and did 5 reps of shoulder press (this is just like that one WOD where you're supposed to walk 1/4 mile lunging and performing shoulder presses every 4 steps). Needless to say I didn't go 1/4 of a mile. I did manage to walk across the gym floor 3 times.
Total work out time including mile run = 33 minutes.

Time - Double Unders - 95# Clean/Press Jerk
5 min. ..... 192 ....................... 26
3 min. ..... 122 ....................... 15
1 min. ....... 76 ....................... 11
My form on the Clean/Press Jerk's was horrible. Struggling for the first 5 minutes did help me work out some of the kinks in my form, did better in the other 2 intervals. I jump rope alot but hadn't done Double Unders regularly, now I know why. Not very consistent, could only do about 30 to 45 seconds straight without stopping.
This is my first posting. I have been doing the WOD's for about three weeks. I thought I was in relatively good shape until I started doing Crossfit!
Was not able to perform the double unders consistenly (spent more time untangling myself that jumping rope) so I jumped rope as fast as I could for the alloted times.
Reps for the clean and push jerk:
5 min: 33
3 min: 20
1 min: 11
I was definitely able to distinguish the difference between a push jerk and a push press!
Great WOD!
The double unders are more frustrating than playing golf!!! I kept the jump rope going for 5, 3 and 1 minute, but double unders were messing me up.

Thanks for the suggestion guy
Got together with Mark Mueller at his place for this one.Mark has the total Crossfit set-up at his place and it was great training with him.
Not proficient at double-unders yet, so I just did straight skipping for all three rounds.
Reps for the clean/jerk:
5 min= 28
3 min= 21
1 min= 14
Followed the WOD with weighted pull-ups for a total of 34 reps.1 set of unweighted for 5 reps.
Closed up with 3 rounds on the heavy bag.
Forgot to add, I only used 75 pounds as my form in the clean/jerk was a bit rusty.Great WOD.
Good combination. The double unders warmed up my shoulders for the C&Js. Got through it well, but my double unders are mostly like single unders! Anyway, since yesterday was a rest day and I missed several WODs last week, I made up my own WOD for Saturday:
Deadlift 15, 12, 9
1 minute heavy bag, alternating leg roundhouse kicks
Push press 15, 12, 9
1 minute heavy bag, alternating leg roundhouse kicks
Squat 15, 12, 9
1 minute heavy bag, alternating leg roundhouse kicks
30 kettlebell swings
1 minute heavy bag, alternating leg roundhouse kicks
dumbell snatches with each arm (only could get 10 for each arm)
1 minute heavy bag, alternating leg roundhouse kicks
I was nuked.
I didn't feel particularly strong with this workout. I did use 95lbs., but I mainly concentrated on form for the C&PJ. Rounds of 17, 13 and 7. Truth be told, I was pretty ticked at myself for not getting more reps...but I guess they'll come (in the end I'll trade reps for good form any day).
Double unders weren't real good...no consistency to them. I mainly just skipped rope for the alotted time, occasionally attempting to work in the double unders. I need to practice.
I've got to say that my c&pj form is HORRIBLE - this is my first go at them...used 75lbs. Found that I was overpowering the weight with my upper body and not getting down into the squat to lift the load with my legs - I think its a confidence and technique issue.
Double unders were great - never knew how many I could do!
Rnd 1: 5 min - dbl undrs - 247, C&PJ - 22
Rnd 2: 3 min - dbl undrs - 177, C&PJ - 13
Rnd 3: 1 min - dbl undrs - 81, C&PJ - 5
Double-unders and 95# power clean/push jerk:

Back won't take squat cleans, so power cleans was the flavor of the day.
