Evil genius.

Hmmm...don't know whether to scream in horror or chuckle with anticipation. HAHAHAHAHA, I'll save the screaming for after the workout :)

nice work on the pull ups George

Daaaammnn Coach (grinning)!! A good Saturday morning to look forward to at least.

What is a thruster? How is it performed?

Zac,

Links on left side of main page. Click on the one that says "Exercises" and then knock yourself out.

Outstanding progress George! I like the pullup bar....

hey leo and jason, stop being a bunch of posers and make it hurt bad....your times are lacking....better get on it.........hunter derrick and I are coming for ya!!!! ;) happy hunting fellas good luck on this one.

Hey Paresh "Hunter and Derrick" we don't see you posting and you haven't posted for quite some time now and I haven't seen you past since now. Are you supposedly to ELITE now to post? LOL What was your time on today's WOD?

Last but certainly not least Bring it On!

Strong work George!

It seems that every day there are several people who have questions about the exercises--no fault of theirs. I propose that every day, below "Post time to comments" there is a link to the Exercises page labeled "Descriptions of exercises" or something along those lines. Just a thought.

I've occasionally seen links to some exercises but the exercises page is a place everyone should visit frequently. as is Lynne's FAQ page

Evil genius indeed.Deceptive workout in every way. Got to 14 minutes on target but had to drop to 6 pull ups and 10 thusters after that.Whats tommorrow ,maybe running..how about some sprints over 100m ?!!!

Completed 21 minutes. Had 21 pullups at 22:02

Warmed up with 3x10 double 36# kb snatches.

18 rounds with 75# thrusters, strict (up to round 10) and kipping pullups. It took everything I had to make all 17 thrusters in a minute; 19 was out of the question with a total of 10 broken reps that round. 20 pullups on last round.

5 minute rest.

Same WOD using body rows on rings and 20# two hand cb sheild casts. Much to my surprise the body rows nearly did me in; just barely made 19 in a minute. Sheild casts became more fluid as time went on.

thru 10 as prescribed, and then manage, manage, manage at 5 a round for the last 10 rounds! :)

Dan:

Completed AS RX !! (no rack for BB)

I can't believe it. I did'nt think I had a chance in hell.
Well, just goes to show, I am still discovering how well CrossFit is preparing me for 'extreme' physical exertion!

Biked to gym. 6°C with 30k cross winds this morning...out here in Eastern Canada, Hey!

...way to "hang in there" George...inspirational...great form too!

All those years of school, you'd think I'd learn to read.

Got through 16 pull-ups, but I was doing 95# thrusters. And I wondered why they were smoking me so bad. The pull-ups were going well and I could have done at least 18. I'll try to get it right on an off day evertually.

up early for work, didn't go for the 20 min,forgot the instructions

15 rounds + 11 pullups

Team Ruthless Crossfit Va.

I hope I did this right.I used a 40 lb. weight vest to punish myself for yesterday's performance.
I had to drop the vest at minute 17 to finish up on time.Got 19 thrusters in the 19th min.--20 pull ups in the 20th min. and stopped.I hope that is the way it was supposed to be done.

Pulse was 160 at conclusion.

JeffT

Are the thrusters suppose to be barbell?

Went ok until minute 10, then broken sets from there. Probably would have been better to stick to instructions versus thinking I could do the thrusters w/115lbs...idiot! Didn't nearly get required #'s after that, but feel good about the progress, even after only one week. CrossFit can be described in one word: frikinbuttkicker! Thanks for waking me up...so many years wasted :(

Whole sets up to min 17, then speratic random movements in the likes of the exercises.

somehow managed to pump out 13 full rounds, but then pathetically only 25 of each movement until the 20 min mark....these clock ones are always killer

This is the second WOD that I read wrong this week.

I did one thruster, one pull up the first minute,
2 thrusters, 2 pull ups the second minute, 3 thrusters, 3 pull ups the third minute and so on.
I like the looks of the posted wod better.

Anyway, I lasted 12 minutes and one pullup away from 13 minutes.
Good workout. Heading for a 15k trail run tomorrow. Eliminating my chances of misreading the wod yet again.

John:
Used 80# instead of 75# (didn't bring the right plates).

Completed up to round 16 successfully. Got 16 thrusters on round 17 and was about to crank out the 17th when the timer went. R18: 12; R19: 11; R20: 13.

That was a blast! Really enjoyed this one.

Machiko:
Subbed 2 x 10# DBs for thrusters.
Subbed ring rows for pull-ups.

Completed round 13 or 14 successfully then was down to about 10 reps per round until the 20 minute mark.

(2 pu's shy of)
16 minutes

then 17 thrusters
11 pu's before time ran out

18 rnds & 5 thrusters But... it all began to unravel @ the 75# 17 thrusterpoint... it took minutes 18 &19 to do 18 PU & 5 thrusters

COACH.. you may be pleased to know that I used the same wts that my dad & I got in 1961..? '62 @ that time YORK BB sold a 75# set & that 75# NEVER felt heaver...of course @ age 13 my goal was to just be able to military press 75# .. I dont think that the BP had been invented yet
ANYWAY LIFE is just one long happy WOD baby!

Rounds 1 thru 15 completed unbroken with 20 lb
vest.

Shed vest for remaining 5 rounds.

All rounds unbroken except rounds 19 and 20.
Thrusters broken 12/7, pull-ups broken 15/5.

This protocol sneaks up on you fast; you think
to yourself, this ain't so bad then WHAM!

Maybe next time I'll try to complete it with
the vest;)

WOD: 20min
BW=191lbs
Unbroken until round 15. Pullups were on rings and thrusters were with 2 1.5pd KBs. Rounds 18 and 20 were done as body rows. Warmed up with joint mobility and 1.5KB TGU/windmill combinations(3L+3R).

cfwux2
on the minute all the way to 15 thrusters
got to 17 thrusters at the 20 minute mark..
17 thrusters broken 10-7

Made it through minute 11 with prescribed reps. Used 60# bar through minute 9 on the thrusters then went down to 55# and at minute 15 went down to 45#. Managed to continute after minute 11 with 9 pullups each pullup round and 10 thrusters each thruster round. Finished with hollow rocks and L-sits.

stayed on pace for first 12 minutes got to 15 rounds of thrusters and pullups (assisted at the end) within 20 min

13 rounds
...then went 5-10 reps of each for the last 7 minutes 55# thrusters
Love how these feel great in the beginning... seems to give you false hope.

Made it through round 9. Rounds 11-20 were very broken & usually not prescribed reps (went for a minute then switched).

14 unbroken.....then died.....then
R15:6 R16:7 R17:7 R18:8 R19:6 Rd20:7

ROM warm up

WOD:
Was on point for first 9 minutes. I used 55# bar for thrusters on first minute and 65# for the rest.

The remainder minutes looked like this.
10 3 pull ups 11 5 thrusters
12 3 pull ups 13 5 thrusters
14 5 pull ups 15 5 thrusters
16 3 pull ups 17 5 thrusters
18 5 pull ups 19 5 thrusters
20 3 pull ups

As rx'd through 15
16 6 pullups
17 8 thruster
18 7 pullups
19 9 thruste
20 10 pullups
unbroken through 13 min

results: i can't lift my arms anymore.

20 full rds as rx'd.

Did 16 solid rounds then fell to pieces, doing 5/5 then 10/10. Was reasonably pleased with the performance though. Afterwards did KB swings (but got kicked off KBs by an idiotic trainer bc they are for 'trainer use only' - whatever, gotta let it slide), turkish get-ups, and a vain attempt at L-sits.

Got through all 19 thrusters in allotted time
got to 14 pu's in time
did 14 at 16 min mark
did 10 at 18 min mark
did 10 at 20 min mark

Then did 100 pushups with feet elevated on bench for a total time of 29:30....NOT cool!

Well, what can I say? Things went from good to bad to worse to MUCH worse. Got up to 14 pullups and finally had to break them into 2x7. Still did them in under a minute, so I'm guessing they still count. 15 thrusters were done in about :41, and I was panting HARD. 16 pullups were out of the question, so I rested 1 minute, then did 7 STRICT pullups. Was up to 17 minutes by now. Did 10 thrusters, 4 STRICT pullups, and 10 thrusters to finish. Needless to say that I got my ass kicked thoroughly!

15 rounds.....

This one was evil.

Had to take a break after the 15th round for a minute. Then alternated between 10 and 10 to finish out the 20 minutes .

Anyone else think this was going to be easy till about round 10? How foolish of me.

Afterwards, made one of my squad members do tabata thruster, situps, and pushups. He thinks crossfit is evil. He..he...

Lasted thru 14 pullups and 17 thrusters. Sets of ten aftr that.

hello dan from eastern canada. Nice to see another maritimer on here. I'm in Saint John.

21 full rds as rx'd + 20 pullups bwt 213
I felt pretty good, but half the skin on both my palms ripped off from doing pullups on some rusty old rebar we taped up. Oh well, looks like I'm gonna have to take the rest of the month off, rrrrrrrright.

13 rounds + 11 pullups

16 complete rounds, then started paying the man!

Gotta love it...

Van

Got the first thirteen rounds unbroken, and I managed to get rds. 14, 15, and 16 done in the remaining :06. Not bad...not where I want to be, but it's a start.

Keep hammering away, something eventually has to give.

as rx'd thru 14 minutes
6 T's @ 15
12 PU's @ 16
6 T's @ 17
12 PU's @ 18
7 T's @ 19
10 PU's @ 20

On time through round/set 13 (thrusters). Total for 20 minutes was: got through set of 17 thrusters +3 pull ups.

This was nice; after the first several curious minutes of easy sets (spell that "what certain disaster looms ahead?"), you could see the inevitable ass kicking coming like a freight train.

15 rounds + 8pu+7thr+8pu+8thr+10pu
pukie rode hard but never got off his horse.

BW 157

11 rounds

Then 5-8 reps of each until 20 minutes. I had a pretty decent walk between exercises, but this snuck up on me.

13 rounds + 8 pull-ups.
Finished off the rest alternating w/ 5 thrusters & 5 pull-ups.
Another deceptively tough WOD!

18 rounds

Toast!

17 Rounds... got the 18 pullups at 19:30

Hello Shawn,
I visited ST John a few years back in December and really loved it.Stayed with a chap called Jeff Christie(RCMP).Very cold ,of course !

1 pu away from 14 rounds complete. completely fell apart after that.

20 rounds.
But I subbed 75 lb bent over row since I didn't have access to pullup bar.

Getting ready to head to the gym right now. Missed yesterdays because I was flying back. Was going to do it today, but I believe this one will be enough!

Coach, I was barely able to read your post on 050922... Awsome! And MattG, once again yu hit the nail on the head w/your posts.

BW 180lbs
75lbs barbell

Completed minute 14, then sets of ten till the end. ouch!

Recovering from cold/stupid arm injury:

30 min jumprope w/ some doubles & crossovers

100 wall ball @20lb, broken
100 24" box jump, broken

CF warm-up x 3
Used 20lb dumbbells for thrusters
First two pull-ups were dead hang, all rest were kipping.
11 Rounds
Then four rounds of 5 and 5 rounds of 3 until the 20 minute mark. Fun workout!

cfwu x3 w/ reduced dips and pullups

focus: DL up to singles w/ 265# focusing on form

WOD: 18 rounds + 15 thrusters and 20 pullups. damn...4 thrusters short of completion. this was fantastic. my forearms were absolutely shot afterwards.

maybe some run work later.

20 rounds...

18 complete rounds + 9 thrusters + 14 pullups. After 18 rounds I was gassed and lost my focus on the thrusters.

16 rounds

9 minute run, then 3x samson, situps, pushups, back extensions warm-up.

Then 10 rounds as rx'd, then not so great sets after that.

Then 15 minutes on a rower.

14 complete rounds as prescribed, then
15 - 7 thrusters,
16 - 16 pullups
17 - 6 thrusters,
18 - 18 pullups,
19 - 7 thrusters,
20 - 16 pullups + 4 pullups in 15 seconds,
all sets of pullups unbroken through minute 18, all sets of thrusters unbroken through minute 11

Completed 11 rounds. After that I got in a set of 13 thrusters, 15 pull-ups (broken), and 10 thrusters before the 20 minute mark.

as rx'ed
19th and 20th minute broken
really cool quad cramps starting in the 15th minute

that was fun!

False hope for sure! I am new at this and have very little strength, the least of which is upper body.
15# dumbells for thrusters
gravitron pullup machine at 50% body weight (I am 125 lbs)
min 1-14 were all good, then had to back down a little. I didn't expect to be dripping in sweat so quickly! I am loving the way I feel after these!

20 rnds as rxd.

first 17 rounds unbroken. then it hit me hard.

can anyone tell me what kipping is???

Seems I thought the same as everyone else. After minute 10, I thought "man, i'm in trouble".

37.5lb. dumbells for thrusters (to meet the 75lb. requirement).

Kept up through 10min. The rest were 5 thrusters and 6 pull-ups, until minute 20 which was 8 pull-ups. I ain't goin' out like that.

20 rounds in 20:17

On time until the last round, just had to finish that last round.

Solicited a few more guys to do it with me. They liked it.

Spread'n the love

Walked in to the locker room at the L.A. Workout my girlfriend attends to see a guy posing in the mirror. Figured I'd get some crosseyed looks for sure today.

CFWU x3(minus pull-ups, plus flutterkicks-50/4 count per round)
WOD all the way through rd 14 as rx'd. After that:
:15/15 :16/10 :17/17(the looks got intense when I almost met Pukie) :18/08 :19/19(more looks) :20/10
More pain in the shoulders, but still loved the workout!

17 rounds finished as rx'd
round 18 (managed only 16/18 pull ups in the alloted time)
round 19 finished 19 thrusters as rx'd
round 20 managed only 10/20 pull ups in the minute alloted.

Much harder than it appeared, but aren't they all?

Finished minute thirteen. The following 7 minutes went as follows:

Minute/Reps
14/8
15/8
16/8
17/9
18/8
19/10
20/9

Having to write down the reps probably caused me to miss a rep or two in the last seven minutes.

Total thrusters=69, pushups=79

So tell me...what do you guys do for cardio?

Finished through 12 then it all fell apart. Thrusters good, pullups bad... continued to 16 in the 20 minutes given.

finished 12 rounds

continued to 14 by 20 minutes

As Rx'd:

Jason: 20rds except on that 20th round only completed 12 pullups within that minute

Leo: 19rds

Finished round 17, then 15, 12, 12. Then did 3 x 10 30lb Turkish Get-ups, 3 x 10 135 Deadlifts, and a little ab work.

Made it with literally seconds to spare, all 20 sets. During the last set of pullups my hamstrings cramped up bad.

scaled up slightly used 40lb pair of DB
man-o-man, you know it is bad when you think of pullups as a chance to catch your breath.

Prior to WOD did OHS 135/ 155/ 175/ 185x2,2/ 175/ 155x6,8,5

After did handstand practice

themes
"Crossfit, where's the cardio?"

16 rounds; then quit like a wuss. Back was already f'd up from the previous round of WODs and wasn't in the mood for any more pain.

Warmed up with some clubbells: mills and 2-hand mills.

Holy Snot Bubbles,

14 complete sets then I hit a wall that shot me back to set number 3 or 4. Continued until 20 minutes with only a total of 15 pull ups and 10 thrusters completed in the last 6 minutes.

Great workout coach!

As Rx'd up to 11, with assisted pullups.

Minutes 12-20: thrusters 7-10 reps, pullups 7-10 reps with rising assistance.

As Rx'd up to 13, but with 45lbs on the thrusters and assisted pullups.

Minutes 14-20: thrusters 7-10 reps, pullups 7-13 reps with rising assistance (last set at #20 on cybex machine)

12 pull-ups.

11 thrusters.

After that, it was just a mess.

SO CLOSE! No cigar.

BTW=150.

18 rounds on the pace. 19 rounds completed, plus five pullups of round 20, in 20 minutes.

Chipped one of my front teeth on the down-swing of a pullup. That was lame. Now I can't stop tonguing it.

-D.

15 as Rx'd then two more sets total of 17

Got to 16 before breaking up sets of pullups. Broke down entirely in round 19. Did the first 4 minutes in one (ie 4 thrusters and 6 pullups - didn't seem too much for one minute and otherwise the first few minutes seem a bit easy. The same can't be said for the last few).

lasted 12 minutes

50# Thrusters
Pull-ups

16 Rounds in 20 min. Fell behind in round 12. I really liked this WOD.

oops. I misread this WOD and denied myself of the remaining 7 minutes in heaven. I'll getcha nex' time.

13 minutes. The last 2 minutes I actually ran over time to complete the reps.

Used 15lb dumbbells for thrusters.
Most pullups were negatives after round 4.

I think I pulled something in my neck. :(

Thrusters @ 70#
Sub pushup for pullups

Kept pace through 6 mins. 7-20 broken.

Crossfit NYC Rocks!!

Maintained until 14 or 15, then it broke down.

Thanks!

broke pull-ups at 14
broke thrusters at 15

Don't really remember the reps after that. Just slogged my way through to the 20 minute mark.

As rx'd
Last set of pull-ups broken. Sucking wind after round 16
Another kickin wod

One of these days, I'll finish as rx. Stumbled through 8's in 20 minutes, thrusters were easy,but pullups were supported or negatives throughout. It's been a lo-o-o-ong time since I've done pullups. GREAT program--and outstanding WOD,

....and I can't read, either...!!!

20 minutes, 65lbs for barbell thruster, pull-ups broken at 6 minute mark, reduced load pull-ups at 12 minutes, thrusters decline to 7 at 12 minutes,45lb thrusters after mostly 10 reps per minute. Ugly.

Jason: as Rxd for 15 rounds then reps as follows- Round 16- 8 pu; Round 17- 12 thrusters; Round 18- 7 pu; Round 19- 11 thrusters; Round 20- 7 pu.

as rx'd for 10 minutes, then switching every minute

last round: 8 well-spaced thrusters
4 very difficult and heavily assited pullups

jump rope warm up
20lb dbs for thrusters
jumping p/u

14 rounds
8 thrusters in rnd 15
then alternating 10 p/u, 10 thrusters til 20min mark

As Rx'd for 16 rounds then the thrusters on 17 was a no go. I was thinking the same as CraigV BWT 185, "Dude, how are pullups a rest?" and I hadn't even read his comment until now.

Could only muster up a 52lb alice pack for the thrusters :-(
Made it to the last round of pullups at 11 of 20 when I ran out of time; had to finish though 21::23

CROSSFIT is the most balanced exercise regimen on the planet. THE TOTAL FITNESS PACKAGE.

Skipped Friday's workout and didn't do Saturday's until Sunday! Warm up today was 7 hours of garage cleaning/organizing, including moving a palette and 1/2 of cultured stone.

Did 17 rounds total, took about 19 minutes. Great workout - ramped up the heart rate nicely. Sub'd 30 lb db's for thrusters.

Leanne did 5 rounds of 6 ring rows and 20 box step-ups. Slowly getting back into it...

13 Rounds and 12 pullups on round 14 (75# thrusters)
Finished off the remainder of time to 20 with
2 pulls to complete round 14

10 min,then rest 40 seconds, set of 7, then 65# and sets of 6 till 20...ouch!

thrusters more like ppresses, consider lighter next time.

wu= run 1 mile 8:02, xf wu will less dips and pu

13 rounds as Rx'd. Made the 13th thruster with a few seconds to go. After that it was all downhill. Finished out the 20 minutes but never got the complete reps.

Well, I sort of wussed out on this one. I made it to 13 minutes, then called it. I was so toast, I really didn't have anything left to give.

Got to 10 min of complete rounds then it went down hill from there...
Got to 14 Pull-Ups and 15 Thrusters in just over 20 minutes

Completed 22 rds. as rx'd

BWT:187

18 rounds with 95# thrusters, did the last set of thrusters (19) without the barbell and finished with the 20 pullups

Nice shirt Ryan!!!

Orangeview, represent!! Bet he gat a PR.

thru 14 as rx'd

:15/5 thrusters
:16/5 pull ups
:17/5 thrusters
:18/5 pull ups
:19/5 thrusters
:20/10 pull ups

awesome WOD.

What kind of pull-ups? None specified so I'm assuming just the standard ones

Performed Sept 25, 2005:

All square through 12 pullups and 13 thrusters, then: 10PUs, 9 T, 6 PUs, 8T, 10PUs, 7T, 7PUs and complete failure without assists.

I started sensing tough sets to come at 11 thrusters.

FWIW 9 straight PUs a new PR.

16 Rounds completed. Then did 5/5/10/10 for the 17th, 18th, 19th and 20th minutes. Did this one two days late.

This one was a smoker. As rx'd through 14.
R15: 10 Thrusters
R16: 10 Pull-ups
R17: 8 Thrusters
R18: 8 Pull-ups
R19: 7 Thrusters
R20: 10 Pull-ups

17 complete rounds using 40# DBs. Then the thrusters hit me like a ton of bricks.

18: 11 pu
19: 8 thrusters
20: 8 pu

Followed by collapsing, gasping like a fish out of water, etc. Great workout!

Should have read this right before starting instead of going off of memory. I used 95 lbs for the thrusters and kept pace through minute 11. Stopped in minute 12 instead of going full 20 min.

Kept pace for 13 rounds on the minute, fell behind in round 14, but completed the full 20 rounds in ~31 min.

got to round 17, then only made 12's from there on. totals thruster 88, pullups 96

I misinterpreted this WO

I kept working until the 20 min mark was up and managed to finish at the 18 min milestone, I'm not sure if this was better or worse but it was one hell of a WO

Interesting workout!

kept up through 12 pullups, then only managed 6 thrusters;

finished the remaining 7 thrusters then the 14 pullups and quit there (about 17 min) at the request of my shoulders and wrists;

then did a mile on the treadmill, 0.5% incline, 8 mph, in a new effort to add some running miles to my legs every week to try to get past some IT band issues; we'll see.

Did this late with 65# thrusters and 30lb d-ball slams. Made 19 of 20 rounds. Missed the last set of thrusters. HR 186 at completion. BW 205.
