WOW, a model B ergometer... been a long time since I have seen one of those.
Hi there guys.'
Im a newbie here and this is my first post. On the WOD above. When does one start to actually count the reps? right from the get go including the warm ups?
Thanks,
JPW
this place rocks!!
120x3 170x3 220x2 270x2 270x2 280x1 3o5x1 280x1 280x1 260x1 but all off the lowest setting on the power rack,,
135 to 225 warm up, 315 for the 3's, 315 for the 2's, 325 for the 1's. the last couple hurt!
Thanks,
Tim
Start counting after your warm-up, i.e., the first heavy triple.
Beltless trap bar deadlifts:
185x3
205x3
225x2
235x2
245x2
265x1
275x1
285x1
300x1
310x1 (PR I believe)
Despite waking up at 4am (less than 4 hours of sleep) and still feeling a little lower back strain from poorly executed kb snatches this was one of my best deadlift sessions to date. The 310 went up slow but strong; not a max effort. My much desired triple bodyweight deadlift is only 5#-10# away!
Will be doing GTG for TSC pullups and pistols throughout the day.
Started out lighter than last max deadlift wod hoping to improve but was 5 lbs shy of PR.
BW 172
135x3
185x3
205x2

275x1
345x1
375x1
395x1 Pretty shaky
405x1 missed and didn't move
375x1
I was happy just to do this exercise and not reinjure my back. Went from 135 to 215 and was happy: just a warmup for you guys, but satisfaction and hope for the future for me.
No Belt and I took my time...a relaxing day from Pukie.
Warm-up -60 seconds holding 145lb at the waist and slowing lowering the bar stiff-leg style.
225x3
235x3
245x2
255x2
265x2
275x1
285x1
295x1
300x1
2 minute rest
305x1
Muscles feeling full but not pumped..My 300 form was 80% and I had a bit of a rounded back, I took a 2 minute break before I went for 305.
Does anyone know when a 185lb person would be considered strong in the deadlift?

Kelly, Chad - thanks for the kind words yesterday! I've drawn a lot of motivation for my workouts from my anticipation and excitement for this October's level 1 certification seminar. Both of you continue to amaze (and slaughter) me with your strength to weight ratios.

I must have been really tired. Make that another 20-25# for triple body weight...
My deadlift really suffered from yesterdays workout (all in Kg): 60/3, 80/3, 100/2, 115/2, 130/2, 140/1, 150/1 (this was a weight I got 3 with last week). I tried 160 but could barely budge it so went for a set of 6 with 130.
Started at 160 lbs & added 5 lbs/set. PR @ 205 lbs. Felt like I could do more.
Still haven't gotten more plate, so modified to: 17*300# deadlift for time. Completed in 3:51.
Not as strong as last time, 07/02, only able to get 6 reps before first break (-4).
Deadlift:
2x (3x 205#)
3x (2x 215#)
1x 225#
1x 235#
1x 245#
1x 250#
1x 255# wobbly
1x 255#**
**Previous PR was 235#. Moved the bar right over the top laces of my shoes, really helped keep weight on my heels and made the lifts much smoother - especially the initial lift off.
Finished with some front squats and abdominals.

I've been doing crossfit for about a month now, and this is the first time (in my life) I've done deadlift over 110#. Nice endorphin rush.
3x255#
2x265#, 275#, 285#
1x305# New P.R. by 5#. Went up smooth and fast; form was as good as it's ever been.
MISS 315, 310, 305.
4x255.
Strange pulling today - no lumbar rounding at all; the weights either moved or they didn't. Finished up with 5x5x215# at 35#-plate height for speed off the floor and 2x5 one-leg back hyperextensions per leg, 10 straight-body lift negs.

havent deadlifted since last Oct, working my way back slowly.
Woke up this morning with a "twinge" in my back. Didn't feel like I should go heavy with deadlifts today. So I did "Diane" instead. Lifts at 225 were clean and easy, HSPU's suffered from Sundays workout but were still good. Dropped about 1:30 minutes off my last time. Hope to fit this WOD in this weekend.
couldn't get to the gym today, so i made up my own WOD using 2 50# dumbbells:
3 rounds (21,15,9) for time of
.DB swings 50#
.DB pushpress 100#
.Ab wheel (knees)
.Deadlift hi pull 100#
time = 19:25
some of you (eg. kelly, ryan, matt) could probably do this in 8:00 or so...
i'll do the deadlifts tomorrow.

165 for all sets, but I need to work on form anyway (second time doing d/ls).
practiced free standing handstands for 60 second intervals
What the heck is kipping, it has to do with pullups???? A comment on the "Angie" workout-- are the pullups people doing very strict with chin up and over the bar to a full extension at the bottom or simply half-hearting it and calling it good? There are some super fast times posted, great job for those with ability to go under 20 min.
Chalk used, no belt.

I will NOT be looking forward to running 400s tomorrow...
New guy here. I am 42 years old and have been doing army physical fitness training with my 18 year old son for the last 6 months or so. He left for Fort Benning last week. I am working out now with Chris my 14 year old son. I weight 190 lbs, Chris is around 120 lbs and this was the first time for him to deadlift. I haven't deadlifted for years.
Me 3x(155,175),2x(195,225,245),1x(265,285,305,315,325lb)

255# was way beyond my previous best (175). Thanks to all on the message board under the squat improvement thread who helped me with my DL form. Knees were strong and did not bow in like always. 255 was smooth. Could have maybe gone to 275. Only 50lbs from 1 1/2 bw deadlift!
Sean,
Kipping is when you jerk your body to help make the pullup. It is forbidden in some exercises or competitions, but for most of CrossFit's workouts it's encouraged because it's a functional movement.
A head cold lingers so I substituted a cousin of Elizabeth:
Snatch 95lbs
Ring pushpus
21-15-9 in 13 minutes
Thought maybe this could be named "Katie."
First time doing regular deadlifts instead of sumo deadlifts.
Need to work on form: felt back rounding as I lowered weight. Anyways, these are the highest poundages I've tried with any type of deadlift:
3x145
3x165
2x185
2x205
2x205
1x205
1x215

Finished off with reverse hypers and some running.

Welcome to the site John and Chris. I think it's awesome for a father and son to work out together like that.
Ugh, I screwed this up a little.
I warmed up with 3 sets of 6x135# DLs.
In a bold (or stupid) move, I loaded the bar to 205# (bodyweight = 200) thinking I was going to bang out 3 reps. I eeked out one. So I figured that instead of going down in weight, I would just skip the sets of 3 and 2 reps and do singles. If you count my 18 reps at 135 it was still a pretty good workout for me (still a newbie). I tried this routine on July 11 and maxed at 215.

"Tabata This"
12 reps Rows(on hotel machine crap)
20 squats
6 push-ups (ugh!)
12 sit-ups
finally back to 2x bodyweight, but still down 15# from PB. grip is shot lately - probably from all these pullups!

I still don't have any more weight plates than the last 2 times I max d/l'd, so equal PR is the best that I could attempt. I injured my back part way through my last max d/l effort, so I was quite happy to match my PR; I was *very* attentive to good form this time...
