Had to try to think of something to say for first post - how deep do you try to go on one-leg squats? If you can't get to thigh parallel to ground can you hold something for balance?

Congrats Mike on CF Oakland - as luck would have it I'll be back in the bay area Oct. 10th so if you are open for business you can bet I'll be there every night.

Are the squats in Cindy bodyweight or what? (New to CF)
Thanks

John B, hold your.. doorjam?
Marc J, yes.
Have fun!

P.S. But the goal is to work with your balance.

Ah, perfect! I've always done Cindy, but I think I am finally going to be able to ask Mary out! (Okay, that sounds a little dirty ;) )

Crossfit Oakland ?!?!?!? now here is a place where working out with your body armor should be mandatory ...

Bebeck -

Thanks for this. I made myself laugh by thinking "Cindy" looked easy (always a wrong conclusion I've found with CF) so wanted to have a go at Mary. I'll see if I can get to parallel anyway on the squats. Can't say I expect it to be fun! (Or to run out of fingers and toes counting the sets completed.)

16 even while being interupted by my wife for about a minute and a half.

Congrats Mike, I'll be there for the Grand Opening!

Why is it that there are CF gyms in all the places I've lived (L.A., Oakland, Seattle, and Huntington Beach), but not the place I live now (Minneapolis)? Any other Twin Cities residents interested in going in on a space? Seriously, let me know.

If I had a dollar for every time I drove by that corner in an ambulance, I'd be a rich man.

Oh wait, I did and I'm not.

-D.

Cindy, 11 sets in 20:17.

New to CF but if a Minneapolis space pops up I would be interested. Are there any groups meeting to train now?

15 rounds, same as last time.

How many rounds should you be able to get before you switch over to Mary? 20? 25?

Cindy: PR. 19 rounds even.

Last date with Cindy got 21 full rounds + 5 pull ups.

After the seminar decided to really focus on form this time out, so squats were not counted if i rounded my back or didn't go rock bottom. Pull ups had to be from dead hang with no kipping and pressups had to be down until my chest hit the floor up to full extension...

This meant my score this time out was only 16 full rounds.......ouchy.

Cindy

27 rounds + pullups and 6 pushups

PR by 3 rounds.

Team Ruthless CrossFit Va.

Cindy with 20 lb. Vest--full ROM on all exercises/reps

20 rounds in 20:09

first time with vest(PR is 34 rnds. w/out vest)

JeffT

13 even. Same as last time. Pushups are my nemesis.

20 1/3 rounds as rx'ed (Cindy)

Cindy

13 rounds + 5 pullups

All pullups negative. Pushups were my killer.

Cindy
15 rounds + 5 pullups + 10 pushups + 8 squats.

So close!

Cindy -- 8.33 rounds

Cindy - 9 rounds - I think she liked it more than I did :)!

Cindy - 10 rounds even

Most pullups were jumping negatives and last two rounds of pushups were from my knees.

Pullups are my weakness.

Crossfit Virginia - Team Ruthless

Cindy - 16 rounds

14 (+5 Pull-ups and 2 push-ups)

bw 135
Cindy - 27 rounds +5 pullups

I suppose I should make the leap to Mary, but Cindy is good for my ego. JeffT, did the 20lb vest make Cindy substantially harder? I would think so. Where did you get your vest?

Mary for the first time: 6 rounds, 5 HP, 10 one legged.

Cindy was 27 today. She was 11 in July and turned 16 in August. She's sure growing up. Next time I see her she'll probably be about 30...Ihope!

Didn't have it this morning, 13 rounds plus 5 pullups and 8 pushups, nearly a full round shy of my best. On the plus side I didn't have to break any of the pullups.

BW 195 per last post

"Cindy" - 13 rounds

Cindy

24 rounds (pr by 2 rounds)

26 rds even.

Forgot, I did Cindy not Mary.

32 Rounds (up from 27 last time)
AVGHR 167

All sets unbroken.

14 rnds + 5 Pull-ups + 9 Push-ups

short from last time by 1 Push-up and 10 Squats, but I don't feel too bad about it since I did today's WOD after an hour of martial arts practice.

Double WOD day! Catching up by doing yesterday's WOD later this afternoon.

Cindy, 9 rounds; a round or two better than I expected. More breath-limited than muscle-limited, squats especially strong.

This was my first WOD, nice to start with something simple. The workout definitely kicked my butt! I managed 11 rounds, but I could only do 5 pullups for the first 2 or 3 rounds, and by round 9 I was maxing out at 8 pushups. On the squats, should you be going deeper than thighs parallel to the ground?

Can't wait to see what the WOD is tomorrow!

I chose Cindy:
14 rounds +5 pulls, and 8 push ups.

PR by 2 rounds:) Yea!

10 rounds of Cindy . . . slow and steady.

All squats done as OHS with first 35, then 45-pound bar.

Shoulder still weird . . . it's a long way to recover.

Cindy: 14 Rounds, 5 pull-ups, 4 push-ups

cfwux2

MARY=19.57.80 for 8 rounds
5 hspu's
10 pistols
15 pullups

pistols 1/2 rom
hspu's 3/4 rom

cindy: 24 rounds

Mary - 9 rounds + 2 HSPU. New PR for Mary.

HSPUs done full range off 12" stools, head to floor each rep. New PR with the first five sets all consecutives. Breaks on the remaining rounds. Full range pistols done 5R/5L; right easy as usual, left difficult as usual. No breaking on any set of kipping pullups.

This WOD becomes something of a grinder with those full range handstand pushups!

14 rounds
just didn't have it today.
great job Josh Everett!

Just wanted to know who was giving Dan dollars for riding in an ambulance?

Karl,
Good point on form. Funny how our scores go down if we're really conscientious of our form and honest in our efforts. Me, I'm just fat and lazy; that explains my scores.

Read the article by Alwyn Cosgrove on T-nation regarding what works and what doesn't. He said some god things about bodyweight exercises before external loading (Coach has also talked on this subject). So, I'm concentrating on bodyweight movements for a while to build my stability.
Last night: 5 rounds of 10 push ups, 15 sit ups with the AbMat, 20 squats. 11:00
Today: Cindy.
To quote Karl, me old son, "Ouchy."

Okay so I stopped at ten minutes, but I am using the whole "I already did legs this morning" excuse. Not very good but my quads were about to murder me. Maybe I'll do the other ten later on today. My results were 10 rounds in 10.35 minutes.

21 rounds in 20:17 all unbroken.
Last time 17 sets. Still whinning about the squats

Last 3 rounds were my fastest. Took about 10 rounds to get my legs to stop burning from doing squats.

second time doing cindy, first time did 14 rounds, this time did 17 so I'm improving.

Mary 7 sets as rx'd (I propped my heel on the one-legged squats after the 3rd set but did full reps...)

First shot at a WOD. Reduced time to 10 min.
6 rounds of Cindy.

Standing at the bottom of the mountian looking up at all of you.

I did cindy
20 rounds 2 pull-ups

I can never decide which one to do so I am going to do mary later.

Cindy for 16 rounds

Cindy
4 squats short of 14 rounds in 20 min.
PR is 15 rounds

Cindy - 13 rounds + 3 PU's

Last time I did Cindy and got 26+ rounds.

Today; Mary for 9 rounds + 5 hspu.

cfwu x3

WOD: Cindy...4 squats short of 21 rounds. for squats i did OH squats w/ a broomstick. went through the full ROM i could do w/ good form (i.e., w/o rounding my lower back and dropping my pelvis). squats held me up (as usual), but they were better than last time. pullups were kipping w/ alternating grip switching sides each round.

run practice at the track and maybe some HSPU work later.

"Cindy" 18 rounds plus 4 pullups

today I led PT for ROTC and did tabata intervals with pushups, situps and squats. Everyone pretty much hates me now...awesome!

Talissa: 15 sets +5/10/4 (last time was 14) and today was day 2 of sinus infection. WooHOO
Thayer: 11 sets +5/10/9 (started assisted PU at set 4)

Oh and did Cindy

17 rounds as Rxd

Crossfit OAKLAND? Too cool. How far from the M/B center are you located?

"Cindy"

16 rounds +5 pull-ups

Wow. That was a smoker.

Cindy: 23 rounds + 5 pullup/5 pushups

PR by 1+ rounds

Cindy, wanted to do mary but shoulders were tight from handstands yesterday.

16 rounds + 5 pull-ups, unbroken except for final 2 rounds of push-ups.

Great day with Cindy.

5 pull-ups assisted
10 push ups on knees
15 squats

I completed 14 rounds + 5 pull-ups + 10 push ups + 5 squats

I am proud of my improvements from the last time. I lowered my pull-up assist by another 10# and all my squats were rear to ankles and unbroken. Even with this I improved my amount accomplished in 20 minutes. Last time it was 14 rounds even.

Mary
8 rounds (1 better than last time)
felt better about form, too.

I've always liked the Brady Bunch, so I decided to do Cindy today...my first time. And you always remember your first time, right? :)

Anyway, modified doing incline pull up on homemade rings suspended from a chin-up bar and knee-pushups, I did

8 rounds + 5 incline pull ups.

I had about a minute to go, so got down to do push ups, and my arms revolted worse than Russians under Soviet Rule. :)

I couldn't get off the floor on my first down....

9 Cindys (squats @ 110 -- still working up to body weight)

++

Cindy=21 rounds in 20:04 ouch!

WU=10 min light stairclimber
then did the wo from yesterday light
65x4, 85x6 front squat

++

17 rounds + 5 pullups

- 10 pushups from previous Cindy.

I realize now that my squats were too slow. went over 1:00 per round after just 10 rounds.

It's been a long time since we've done Chelsea, so I wanted to see if my dates with Cindy had prepared me for her sister. The last time I did Chelsea, I think I got 23 or 24 rounds, this time I got 30 rounds (5 pullups, 10 pushups, 15 squats) in 30 minutes. Thanks Crossfit!
By the way, woohoo for CF Oakland, I'm there. Any idead when it's opening? In answer to Clay's question, that building is at 33rd & Broadway, just down the street from the M/B center.

CF WO
Did "Cindy"
24 rounds, 3 more rounds than last time.

My first date with Cindy: 15 2/3 rounds...wasn't satisfied so I took her out again about an hour later 16 rounds.

Cindy
15 rounds + pullups.
1 round less than last time but I've been lazy the past couple of weeks.

Kat: subbed 50# lat pulldowns and incline pushups; 13 rounds

7 rounds of Mary + 5hspu's, 5.66 rounds last time
front squat from yesterday:
133 x 10 x 3 westside style with 45 sec rest b/t sets, missed yesterday, tacked on to todays wod

"Russian Mary"
9 rounds
Subbed 2 1.5KB military press for HSPU(Have the RKC cert Fri and want to implement tham as much as possible in the WOD). Improved by 4 pistols and 15 ring pullups since trying last time. First round unbroken on ring pullups. The rest were broken into 5's, 3's, and 2's. Warmed up with joint mobility. Will rest up tomorrow and drive to St. Paul, MN. Getting excited about this weekend! Thanks coach, Lynne, and the rest that contribute for motivating me and getting me ready for the RKC cert weekend!

Cindy - 20 rds in 19:~~

Trying to get fancy with my super watch, timing each split, I ended up fumbling with the watch trying to switch between Chrono and Timer to see how much time I had left when the timer went off. Fine motor skills deteriorated, along with response loop while catching my breath between rounds. I'd push the button and it took a few seconds to realize I didn't push it hard enough, push again, wrong mode, push again, etc. Next time I'll tick the rounds on a piece of paper until the buzzer.

I started out by trying to get in a few extra rounds in the early minutes, shooting to be at 12-13 by the ten minute mark, then maintain 1 rd on the minute to 20 minutes. I managed to get ahead by 1, 11 rounds in 9:52, then proceeded to squander my gain over the next 9 rounds.

Fun, fun, fun!

Crossfit Boulder Creek

Kim - 8 rounds but almost all pullups were regular. This is an improvement from last time where all pullups were jumping.

Jenny - 9 rounds jumping pullups, started with regular push ups but switched to knees.

Maddy - 8 rounds (first crossfit workout) started with jumping pullups then switched to ring rows, knee pushups.

Nathan - 9 rounds. Jumping pullups. Switched to knee push ups towards the end.

Beth - 13 rounds as prescribed but switched to knee push ups halfway through.

Cindy: 24 1/3 (5 pull ups)

PR by one round and first full Cindy in about 7 months.

First time Cindy, third WOD ever, bw 170:

13 rds, 16:37...then started whining.

Love it.

cindy
assisted pull ups
pushups: on toes first 5 rounds. after that, 5 pushups on toes, 5 on knees

13 rounds in 20:30

haven't done that many pushups since basic -- funny how they are easier when you don't have someone screaming in your ear that you are a worthless pile of poo... ;)

and notable: first time pushups haven't hurt since the injury

Hi all,
Second time doing as prescribed
Lisa 10 pounds and then she stopped due to wrist and knee pain. Duration ?.

Jon 27 rounds (pull-ups on rings) in 20:10. The push-up became difficult at rep eight for the final six sets. I have profound respect for those who do 30+ rounds.
Until tomorrow...

Cindy

20 rounds

Mary

11 rounds in 20:44

I think I was on rep number 9 when the clock hit 20min. Those last few reps were murder. All exercises were complete sets accept for the last round of pull ups.

Pull ups done on an attic ledge.

HSPUs were a lot of negatives and partials. Did extra because of this. I need to work on more full -head below hands- HSPUs.

Pistols were unassisted.

forgot to mention that I beat my old score by almost a complete round, and I had better form this time.

Me and Cindy went through the motions 21 times, she's left me nackered!

What a gal.

Clay,

Not sure what the M/B Center is...are you talking about that Kaiser facility? We're at 3300 Broadway, just a few blocks down from MacArthur.

We're not yet open, but will be soon (within the next couple of weeks).

Stay tuned.

Cindy:

11rds. Painfully so. My quantity of pull-ups have degraded lately. Even sets of 5 ner the end were hard.

Looking forward to doing Cindy again. Only next time I hope to last longer (where have I heard that before...?

Awesome Mike,

CrossFit Chinatown!

Don't worry, I will grace you with my presence (for you to 'school' me).

Ron - I am sure Dan has gotten dollars for a lot of things done in cars. In THIS case he was either driving the ambulance or working in the passenger seat. Now he puts people in ambulances if they cross him.

Peter S.
I'm hoping you understand that bodyweight squats for Cindy are just that - squats with your body, only. No additional weight required, although 9 rounds with 110# extra is impressive... or did I missunderstand your post above?

"cindy" 22 rounds in 19::49
"Crossfit is so good it can't be legal"

I'm new. This is my fourth WOD. First one that I ried to do close to RXed.

Did Cindy. subbed 47 kilo BB push-presses for push ups. got 14 rounds and 1 pullup.

Well, scrolling down the comments I noticed there were other "Tim's" besides me. I'll post under TimR from now on :)

Sweated out 18 rounds with Cindy in 19:48. 3 round improvement from last time. Usually squats are what hold me back, but I was flying through them. Did pullups on a flat bar for the first time - usually do them on the wide-grip bar. The flat bar seemed tougher, but I think after doing nearly 100 of them, I am a little stronger :)

Mike, the m/b center is/was the skanky mall at the corner of Macarthur and Broadway--Back in the day, anyway. Glad to see you guys opening, will have to come across the Richmond bridge and workout with y'all.

Julian: 13 rounds.
Jonathan: 75% of the Cindy WoD.
Brand: 15 rounds.

17 rounds

was a little fuzy towards the end. might be 16. anyway a PR for cindy.

knees no likey after all the front squa'n yesterday

18 rounds plus 5 pull ups & 1 push up.

PR by 4 rounds.

Kudos to Brand and Julian.
I managed 15 rounds in 15 minutes (barely squeezing a workout in between meetings - corporate life!)
Hence the 3/4 Cindy.
JK

Looks like there's a lot of other guys named Tim on the CF comments, so I will start posting under TimR.

Cindy as rx'ed: 18 rounds in 19:48 - 3 round improvement from last time.

Woops! Tried posting a few minutes ago and the screen froze. Looks like it made it on here anyways. Sorry!

Cindy
20 rounds in 19:35

13 rounds + 5 pullups & 7 pushups.

Last time 14 rounds. I'm happy with the results for a couple of reasons: 1) felt like warmed over crap (swollen lymph nodes/oncoming cold and bad sleep the previous night); 2) All squat sets were unbroken - a first for me. My legs might be catching up (surpassing) my upper body (I know, one piece... but heck this is big for me after years of abusing myself with body-building exercises and being a "show-pony").

cindy for 13 rounds and the timer went off as i put my hands on the bar for 14...this was my very virst crossfit back on aug 10...pull ups were unbroken, and i just overall felt a whole lot better than i did...i don't say it enough, so...thanks, coach

Cindy, 20:00 min.
1-8 reps as rx'd
9th rep pull ups broken (4+1), push ups & squat as rx'd
10th rep pull ups broken (3+2), push ups broken (8+2), squats as rx'd
11th rep 3 pull ups to failure, 8 push ups to failure, squats as rx'd, saw Pukie laughing at me from across the gym at 20:00 min, so after a short breather, CII for 2,500 meters to show that clown who's boss. Cindy is one tough gal...

Cindy

House-BWT:248+15lb. vest
33 rounds

Utah-BWT:185+12lb. vest
33 rounds

My Lord. 33 rounds . . . with a vest.

Amazing.

Cindy: 17 rounds = PR!

Not only did I do a round and a half more than last time, but I did all my pull-ups without assist, so it's a double victory for me. Kip is my new best friend and my abs are my new target.

Oh, first 5 rounds of pull-ups unbroken. All rounds of push-ups and squats unbroken. All squats below parallel.

Cindy 16 rounds!!! PR!!

I did 5 more rounds than last time AND I only had one set of pullups that was broken!!

Woohoo!

Neil - 10 hungover rounds.

Nathan - 15

Ron- Jonesey is correct. I spent two years and change as a paramedic in Oakland and made about fifteen dollars the whole time. Thanks AMR!

Mary: Got 5 HSPUs into round 12.

HSPUs nose or forehead to floor, wall for balance. Rock-bottom pistols. Those were sucky after yesterday's front-squats.

Soundtrack: Isis.

-D.

Cindy for 8 rounds. Stopped because if I went another round I was gonna meek Pukie the Clown. Sometimes early morning workouts before breakfast are rough. Got some water, then walked half a mile.

As Rx'd:

Leo (Mary): 9rds + 5 HSPU + 16 pistols

Jason (Mary): 9rds + 5 HSPU + 6 pistols

Tyler (Mary): 5rds

Little (Cindy): 10rds

18 rds as rx'd

Steve-0

Cindy
21 Rds

Cindy 9 rounds
modified: jumping pullups; and knee pushups for the first 4 rounds, pushups off the hood of the car after that.

Back-off triad day 2:
1/2 Cindy: 9 rds + 5 pull-up + 10 push-up in 10 min.
Disappointed with numbers, but worked hard on getting "real" push-ups with full shoulder extension.

Eric2's Pregnant Wife:
Cindy: 23 rds + 3 pull-up (PR!!!)
1st 6 as rx'd, remaining rds with jumping pull-ups and knee push-ups.

Grethel (CrossFit Murrieta's 1st (non-paying) client):
Cindy: 13 rds
Jumping pull-ups, knee push-ups.

Cindy
22 rounds + 5 pullups and 10 pushups
Focused on form particularly full extension on the squats

I had a partial rip of a calous....You guys should have seen the look on the face of the 24 hour fitness people when I asked them for something to wipe the blood off of the pullup bar, they thought I was crazy. It was classic...

13 rounds total, 8 or 9 unassisted, I can't exactly remember. 9 through 13 with jumping pull-ups, . Man...what a day. whew!

Cindy 24 rounds

FYI: Seal Quest Challenge #5 is to do 25 rounds in 20 minutes. Nice job to those who completed that many or more.

p.s. How do you breathe during pullups?! Even just doing jumping I have to stop at the bottom and take another breath.

"Cindy" 16 rounds with :33 to spare. WOD was done outside - sunny and 75 - which added a little challenge. Finished with a 2500m max effort row as a punishment for not getting 18 rounds.

"Cindy"
23 rounds + 5 pullups + about 10-15 minutes of panting/sweating/reeling on my back staring at the ceiling. much better now, thank you.

Cindy 15 rounds + 5 pull ups

Pull ups were modified. Jogged 1/2 mile before.

cindy
35 rounds + 5PU

“Cindy”
Complete as many rounds in 20 minutes as you can of:
5 Pull-ups - sets 1-8 as Rx, set 9 = 4+1 jumping pull-up, set 10 = 3+2 jumping pull-ups
10 Push-ups - as Rx
15 Squats - as Rx

ROUNDS: 10 + 15 Squats, 6 Push-ups

Although I did the same number of rounds today as last time, I made some good progress in my pull-ups. Last time I was only able to do rounds one and two as prescribed. After that I needed to do assisted pull-ups. In today's effort, I was able to do eight rounds of pull-ups as prescribed - no assist. In rounds nine and ten I needed to do jumping pull-ups, but I believe this is also an improvement because they seem tougher than assisted pull-ups. Finally, last time I was able to crank out 12 extra squats before the time ran out. Today I did 15 extra squats and 6 extra push-ups. Afterward, I played around with some pikes and bridges on my power-wheel (http://www.crossfitkc.com/gear.php?productID=13) but Pukie poked his head over the Eastern Sierra and told me to cut it out.

That said, I am, as always, mighty impressed and humbled by everyone's efforts today. Two that caught my eye were Allen Yeh's PR of 16 rounds. 5 more than last time - GREAT JOB ALLEN! The 24 rounds by masterpayne is totally inspirational too. Thanks for the heads up on the challenge of 25 rounds. It is nice to have a goal to shoot for.

Cheers, Scott

After posting, I saw Jake's 35 rounds + 5 pull-ups of Cindy. HOLY COW STRONG WORK!

Cindy: 10 rounds- almost met Pukie. Off to go practice HSPU's for a while. Any tricks of the trade regarding HSPU's?

Cindy:

7 rounds as prescribed, plus 4 rounds jumping pullups

Our Auburn group is growing, 3 regulars and 2 (maybe 3 on friday) new guys.

Cindy:

She's an abuser. 15 rounds/20mins. First 9 rounds as RX. 10-15 I could only get 3 pull-ups and between 6-7 push-ups consistently with good form.

Cindy

As RXed 17 rounds clean form. WOW!

Last time, lost track and couldn't remember if I did 16 or 18. I'll split the difference and say 17.
Like Scott McAndrews, I'm humbled by the scores of others here.
Legs were tired... picked the wrong day to do along run for morning PT.

Oh yeah, That was "Cindy" by the way.

Still not feeling great, warmup then OHS 135/155/175/185/185/155x6,8,10

Mary 9 rounds in 20 min pistols were my bane as usual(needed a 1.5 inch heel lift and they were still really hard), did 10 rounds in just over 19 min last time(not the 10 rounds in 9 min like I posted, but I figured anyone reading would have realized I missed a digit in my old post)

Reserving Cindy for a challenge with a non crossfitter at work. ;)

Today's workout at Brand X:
Big Dogs: 135+, Pack: 96-65, Puppies: 45-25, BC's: PVC Pipe

I started with 65 then went down to 45# during cleans

run 400m
Clean 5x5x5
run 400m
Front Squat 5x5x5
run 400m
Push Press 5x5x5

Started out too heavy and took off 20lbs because I was going to slow in the first set of cleans.

17:15

Who is this House person that did 33 rounds of Cindy, with a BW of 250 plus a 15lb vest. That is absolutely incredible. This is not meant to slight the poster, Utah(also with 33 rounds), in any way. As another of the heavier-weight crossfitters(at BW=245), 33 is absolutely sick, and makes me feel quite worthless. And motivated to improve.
Next time we do cindy, ya'll should make a video.

13 and 2/3 rounds

best of 25, only got to 22 this time. leaves room for improvement

Cindy - 18 rnds

Mary - 9 rds + 5 HSPUs. Pullups on rings.

Cindy seemed like the popular girl today, so asked Mary out.

Kudos to all of you that did 30 rds + of Cindy. Absolutely amazing!

Score is down im happy getting closer to a true "Cindy"

we just did Chelsea last week at +1 for 25 min, so we felt froggy today and did FGB. Had to substitute "step hops" alternating right and left for box jumps; and double unders due to lack of a rowing machine, but still got the work done.

My first Crossfit workout back in January was FGB with Curtis and John U. at Crossfit Rainier, and I got a 199. With my score today, and the bonus fact that I got my first muscle-up this A.M., today was a good day. Thank you Coach and Laura and Curtis and John and Mike Perry and everyone else for a great lifestyle change.

Last time: 10 rnds plus pulls

This time: 9 rnds plus two pulls

All pulls were from dead hang, alternating grip after the sixth rnd

Pushups were chest to ground

Squats were to the ankels

Cindy 14 rounds. this workout combined with the front squat workout the other day...it is difficult to walk. :D

Only did 15 but changed squat for sit-ups, as I did 9km run plus sprints and plyo's.

Tracy did 14 rounds, 2 round improvement.

I had gymnastics, will do Cindy tonight

Pushups on knees after round 4
Squats as rxd

Mike Joyce

Cindy, 23 rounds, PR by 1

BW 224#
Fast day today.

Ever since the "tight shoulders" video and the "chin to bar" thread I've been forcing and expanding my shoulder ROM throughout the day. I felt this made an enormous difference in today's WOD.

Cindy, 15 rounds + 5 + 7 (PR)

John- 21 unbroken sets

Chris- 10 broken sets, pullups was my weakness, or as John so elegantly put, I have identified a potential growth area.

16 rounds, 5 pullups and 2 pushups...Cindy

Mary

7 rounds, 5 HSPU, 2 pistols, ouch

I felt so blech today. Was yawning and sleepy all the way to the gym and I ate like crap the night before and this morning. Need to try again sometime soon, I rested too much and I'm sure I had at least 1 more round in me. Pfeh..

Mary - 11 complete rounds, with some modifications. HSPUs against a wall, with a 3 inch pillow on the floor. Single leg squats are just that, not pistols. Pullups were singles only at the end in order to break 20 minutes.

Done today, Cindy.

13 or 14 rounds in 20:30

Also slowed the squats to "mature" form.
Awesome DOMS in the hams today.

Mary
8 rounds + hspu, pistols, & 6 pull-ups
The pull-ups killed me. Had to break them up in 5s after 4th round.

14 rounds - pullups still the weak link.
first 7 rounds I alternated between pronated and supinated grips then switched to supinated for the last 7.
not bad after being sick and only do 2 of the last 6 WODs

cindy

1st time unbroken on this wod
pushups full body 1st seven sets-then switched to knees

11 Rounds in almost exactly 20:00.

Might have squeezed out another or two if I didn't have to waste time moving to and from a pull up station.

Squats were butt to ankles.
Pushups chest to floor.
Pull-ups I kipped (mostly)

After reading posts of 15+ rounds, I feel all wimpy!

P. Bryan Edge-Salois...I know how you feel!

BWT = 240#
10 rounds in 18:30. Couldn't get my arms to pull me up after that. Same as last time, but less assist with PU. Only last two sets of pushups were from knees vs. final 4 sets last time.

8 rounds + 5 HSPU's & 6 Squats

Mary...11 rounds, new PR.

HSPU done back to wall, top of head to floor;
broken only when balance was an issue.

did pullups on rings (but they were quite close to their hang point)
pushup form wasn't so hot
squats were good
