Well, this is going to be horrifically painful. But then that's why I keep coming back here.

24:06 and this Texas boy is COLD!

27:27

19:25
Did the sets of squats in sets of 50. My thighs were smoked!

This makes sense, because the wod's with 250 squats were just getting soooooo easy. I'm going to rent a wheelchair for tomorrow.

14:59.48

WOD was #2 on the day. Off to the pool later for about 3500m. I'll be rolling back into the gym on my Rascal scooter, just like George Costanza.

Am I doing these squats with bodywieght or what?

not to be picky...but shouldn't the workout # end in 27 rather than 17?...had to double check Dec. 17th to see if it was a repeat...please bear with me...new to this....amazing system!

Matt G-

I'll rent a scooter too and then we can race. Will you give me a head start?

Abe

Squats are bodyweight unless specified.

Jell-o anyone?

Eric-SLC

23:50

Squats broken up into sets of 25 after 1st round (50/50)

I am very wobbly.

15:58

I lucked out by having a warm morning to go to the track, 35F. No breaks in squats, transitioning to run is tough

4th WOD
27:00

First set of squats done 50/50. After that, had to go to sets of 25. Dragged myself home. I'm gonna pass out now.

3rd Day on Crossfit

24:53

Tough.

24.50, the usual slowpoke on the runs. A great day to be alive and doing Crossfit!

I say if your not feeling as alive as you should..do a crossfit WOD!

19:59
deceptively hard-nice time Matt G.

isn't there a CFJ that discussed and described the 7 CF exercises...or something like that? Im looking for the prescriptions for things like Gwen, Chelsea, Helen, Karen, etc.

26:38!

ChadO,

You can find the girls on Lynne Pitts Official Crossfit Faqs at: http://www.mitymous.net/weights/xfitfaq.htm

(Lynne - maybe we should add the new girls to the FAQ???)

They were also in the November 2004 where they introduce the new Girls. The September 2003, where the first Girls were introduced is still worth getting because it has some interesting stuff on what the differences between them are.

The WOD won this battle. I only did two sets.

Time: 17:01; squats were broken sets.

21:27.
Legs on fire...not disappointed with this WOD at all...quite an attack on the quads.

23:02

18:45
...but I owed instead
Matt G ... someone tried to steal my scooter & when they couldnt.as a parting jesture took a hammer & knocked out all the lights, turnsignals, mirrors , speedometer etc... so I'm now scooterless...I would like to have tried it in the ice storm we had here in SC yesterday...

22:40

this was a great WOD ... nice mix of quads/hip flexors/posterior chain.

17:40

I started the first run at a 6 minute mile pace and ended the last run at an 8 minute mile pace. Legs are trashed! This one was great fun.

26:30, including about 2 minutes of waiting for a *@#! treadmill. It was raining too hard for my sick self to go outside and do it, so I was stuck on the belt with all the other hamsters.

My quads are jello! With fruit and marshmellows inside!

Simple but deadly... I love it!

16:45

Aush: Hi, you must be Pukie?

Pukie: ....

Aush: Yeah I think I ran into you one time on the basketball court when I was 14, that was you wasn't it?

Pukie: ....

Aush: Well I think I'll be going...I have another round to...Hunh? What's that? What?! I...Bwaaahh!!

Pukie: (smiling) Another one bites the dust.

Aush

14:25.98

All out, no breaks, no broken sets.

31 min.

This big boys legs are toasted!

21:40, all squat sets unbroken, runs a painful slog around my hilly block in the rain

So, I'm at my uncle's in Massacheusetts still, and we had a big nor'easter roll through yesterday. Snow was too thick to run today, so I made something up:

Warmed up with 5x samson stretch

Did as many rounds possible in twenty minutes of:
10x OHS w/ broomstick
10x situps
10x laying GH raises
10x doorframe pullups
10x chair dips

(did 10 rounds in 21 minutes)

Then cooled down with some handstand drills and HSPU.

17:55
My dog completed 2 1/2 laps; he still refuses to do the squats.

Actually, I find it easy to get my dog to squat, and even to burpees. "Sit, Stand, Sit, Stand" or "Sit, Down, Jump! - Down, Jump!"

Taking advice to "go thru the motions" the first month. I divided the WOD by 4 to get 200m run/25 squats. Did warmup minus squats.

10:55 AVERAGE HR 88% Thought I'd add rounds if I did it too quick but I was quickly wiped out and a little ill. Will back off intensity a little.

re: dog squats
Maybe its the location. All the neighborhood dogs like to squat in my yard. or so it seems.

9th day for crossfit WOD.

You guys are animals...nice times

think the WOD should have been edited to:
800 meter run, 100 squats for 3 sets.
pull yourself to the computer without use of legs (because they dont work). Post times (in between heartbeats.

time: 2 (beat)5 (beat):0 (beat) 0 (beat) 25:00

thanks for the websit....

It was pouring up here. I waited hoping it would clear enough to run. It didn't. Subbed rowing 800 meters for the run. total time = 29.45

When I got home one of my daughters said"Whats the matter with Daddy"
My wifes reply was along the lines of "if you end up like this whats the point of doing it"

Too tired to reply.

Man did I guess wrong yesterday or what..being out of reception range with my smartphone and no computer I decided to do 4 tabata squat versions: overhead, thruster, bottom-bottom and regular
So I read this morning 300 squats!
Got through them in 25 min despite a knee and lower back revolt.
Ended with 220's alternated with 25 squats.

Still too sick to play...maybe tomorrow.

t.m. 7,6,6
broken sets decent form
h.a. with squats
29:28

23:12. Raining, subbed rowing for running.
That which does not kill us makes us stronger.
Not sure which category this falls under.
JK

I thought about doing 33,33,34 3 times
but no I did 50, 50 3 times gutted this 1
out thats for sure. I pushed off on the balls of my feet not heels is this right.Oh and ass to the grass too. Legs will hurt for a couple of days...

Rounds two and three 50/25/25

20:25
As rx'd 800m runs/100 squats at Liberty Park trail. Had to break the squats up (of course).
Went ice climbing this morning, but after 3 pitches it got too warm and rocks and ice were falling from everywhere, we turned tail and ran away.

Guy,
That's hilarious! I even getthose comments from my climbing buddies. And I do have to laugh at myself while I'm hobbling around.

21:48

19:58.

There's a line in a song by the Queens of the Stone Age that says "I want something good to die for to make it beautiful to live." During the final set of squats, while racing to finish in under twenty minutes, that made a lot of sense.

Uh-oh, I'm starting wax poetic. I'll stop.

-D.

I'm impressed with all of you! Before today I was a virgin crossfit trainee. Finished at a whopping 32!!! Crap - lots of work to do. That's okay - this is fun.

25:41

First WOD after 3 week vacation.
17:22
SMOKED!!!

17:55

25:16

28:01
800m is .5 mile , right?
-Brandt

This is the 2nd day for the wife to agree to the WOD. In negotiations, it was cut to 400m/100 squats, 400m/75 squats, 400m/50 squats (18:56). For dessert, we did Tabata pushups!

20:48 (runs of 800 yards, not meters)

26:22

I resemble one of those flamingo birds that stand with their knees bent backwards. Anytime my knee bends even a degree forward, I fall...hard.

One more thing. My legs are not quite as muscular as the flamingo's.

21:04

Just got over a bad head cold
35:00 even
this Canadian boy is cold! -20 out

18:09 Hopefully the next WOD will be upper body...

26:23

Secret Service Snatch Test:
Number of one armed kettlebell snatches in 10 minutes, alternating arms whenever.

I did 159 snatches with a 36lb kettlebell. I did all snatches over the top style (not GS style) and really enjoyed how much it fried my grip.

Warmed up with PVC pipe Oly drills and med ball cleans. Finished up with overhead squats with a bungee cord.

modified cf warmup
21:46 runs were .5 on treadmill.
as one of my workout partners used to say "i'm so healthy i can't walk!"
cooldown with handstand practice and shoulder stuff.

Squad pt this morning. tire throw (100yrds), farmer walk (50lb. DB), push press (65lbs BB), burpees, squats, sandbag side-to-side loading, bear crawl (100yrds) RAM curls(40lbs) all events were timed off the tire throw. After pt we did a lightning round for 30 sec at each station. Followed by hill sprints and 100 squats X3. I relize this maybe speradic.

22:37
Wife: 26:22

Ran 1/2 miles on treadmill then did 100 bw squats, 3 rounds in:
Joe, 21:44; John, 27:20.

trying to get back in shape from ranger school. this routine kicked my butt pretty good. a little under 30 min.

Josh, I know what that's like man. You have a tough road ahead of you. Start pounding the vitamins and don't eat too much. It took me a long time to fully recover from that school.

Oh, and RANGER'S LEAD THE WAY!!!

25:00 As prescribed first run since i injured my right calf muscle. Slow pace but felt really good. Awesome workout :)

24:28 Soft sand course.

32:24

Good heavens this was tough, and I substituted 3:30 minutes on the air-dyne bike for the runs. I can't run in the cold air, it messes with my lungs.

Squats went, 34/33/33, 25/25/25/25, 20/20/20/20/20

~27:00 (I mistakenly stopped the timer @ 21:30 before the final 100 squats).

All squats were broken (no sets lower than 10 at a time) - but all were A2A.

Convinced my girlfriend to do this (she's a middle distance runner) - she smoked me on this one (21:30) - which is probably good as I'll likely be able to convince her to do more crossfit!

31:07. I was 20 squats shy of my 30 min goal. It took awhile to recover and do those last 20 squats! All squat sets broken in sets no less than 20. I can tell I need a rest day...

20:06

20:38

Sub'd 1000 M Row for Runs. All squats were unbroken.

Tim

24.06 last night in the snow, sets unbroken. Nearly had an Xmas visit from Pukie.
Thank god for rest days.

22:16 as rx'd

19:01

Still feel lousy due to the flu but my back can't take laying around anymore. Didn't push the runs; all were slow. No breaks on the squats - all below parallel with full extension and knee lock. No speed, just a constant tempo.

17:55 Up all night with a pukie child but this was a great way to start the day. Came back to more pukie but none was mine.

A warm 47 degrees in SLC today. Because of this I went down to the local high school track.

Shane-23:00 with 50/50 sets of squats

Mindy-22:30 two complete rounds

27:43

Pushing the 2.5 year old in the Burley.

26 minutes

Dang it!

I am so thinking about taking this week's workouts and transposing them onto next week (I doubt I will have time for Crossfit this week)...except I know next week will be AWESOME as well and I won't be able to pass them up either!

16:30
Good stuff.

First one after a 2 day break. Too much "Christmas Cheer?"
The runs were strong; my squats were sucky!
32:25
Should have been well under 30 min!!!!!!!
Arrrgh!

Laurar, lol, I've had that "problem" before, too.

Ron, I checked back at your times a few days ago. You did more runs and 250 weighted thrusters in only 3 minutes less. I find that interesting because I find thrusters a LOT easier than just squats (as they're essentially a weighted squat and a pushpress and you need to clean the weight before starting!).

started with recon rons pull-up routine, (garenteed to up your pull-up) lol it works though also did 5 rounds max sets on bar dips

finished this one in 21:57 not real happy thought i would break 20 minutes, maybe next time.

24:19

subbed 4 min. of jump rope for each 800 meter and finshed this one in 20:54 all squats were hams to calves.

Did 50 squat sets instead, all unbroken.

17:49

16:40

14

26 minutes

Good way to come back after a few days off for the holidays.

CF warmup
2 rounds in 20:11, ran out of time, was headed for a 10-15 minute final round

Did this in reverse; squats and then running. Did it in 24:16

27:07
"Runs" on t-mill; squats slow but unbroken.

24:11

3 rounds in 16:48
Did 4th round in another 5:49 for a total time of 22:47

17:48 as Rx'd

I looked at my splits; my latter 2 rounds were almost *exactly* the same, the 3rd 800m being only 2 seconds slower than the 2nd.

2nd and 3rd sets were way slower than the 1st set, the 800m being the major culprit.

3 rounds of:

300 skips
100 squats (mini sets of 10)

Time: 23:21

Could have gone harder.

My sister did:

3 rounds of:
5 minutes stationary biking
50 squats

Time= 23:55

did this on 30/12- away from computer
