L pull-up - Keep your feet above your butt and your legs locked
Posted by lauren at May 9, 2006 3:19 PM
still can't do a complete handstand pushup so i'll stick with cindy and add 5x5 to the workout.
With regards to the handstand pushups, try "kipping" your legs up to assist the movement. Start with your head and hands on the ground, forming a "tripod", with your legs bent at the knees, (like you are sitting in a chair, upside down though). When you initiate the movement extend your legs so they are inline with the rest of your body. Timed right this will help "lift" you up, and lighten the load on your shoulders. Obviously its similiar to kipping pullups in effect.
Excited to try Cindy for first time! Pull-ups are one of my weak points. Good day to help out with that...Me thinks breakfast after Cindy is a good idea.
when alternating the one-legged squat, do you do 10 with one leg and then immediately after 10 with the other leg (so 20 reps per round); or is it 10 reps per round, alternating legs each round?
This will be my first time trying to workout at 5am before heading off to work, trying to start a new schedule. This will be a perfect quick workout for this.
Should be fun trying to break my PR 6 rounds.
Bobby im gonna tie you today or get 1 more just because!!!
15 rds unbroken, no kip. Still trying for 20.
For Cindy, those squats are just body weight squats correct? Thanks.

#4 Matt
I believe it is 10 reps alternating legs for each rep, so 1 right; 1 left; 1 right; etc… x10.
Someone please correct me if I am wrong.
Titan (#10):
Yes, Bodyweight Squats.
Matt (#4): Sharon is correct. 1 right, then 1 left for a total of ten.
Thanks bozman. I'm looking for 8 rounds tomorrow. Can't wait.
~The Titan
My favorite workout! PR of 26, can't wait! Anyone doing Crossfit in Tampa? I am going on leave on the 29th of May and will be in Tampa for 10 days.

Mary - 11 rounds plus 5, same as last 2 times
15 rounds plus 5 pullups and 5 pushups. As usual, pushups are the limiting factor. After first 2 rounds, pushup sets broken 5-5 until the last 5 rounds where the break was 5-3-2. Ran to and from gym for warmup/cooldown.
Cindy

Daws-altitude makes this one a bear!

Did both girls:

"Cindy" was next
16 rounds plus 5 PU's
Cindy @ ~270#'s
13 rounds + 5 pullups, 10 pushup and 6 squats.
Up from 13 rounds last time but had a lot more interference from the crowd at the gym. I was going for 15 rounds and I think I could have made it. This is a great workout for the basement gym, when it is done.
Forgot to add that pullups were jumping except first 4 were unassisted.
Team Fallujah tackled Cindy today:
Gunner - 20 rounds
Capt S - 18 rounds (improved from 12+ last time)
Mr M - 16 rounds
BW: 145
Mary: 10 rounds
2 round improvement.
The L pull-up does not exist in my world with my 6'4" body. It's not even a half-asses 'J'. The pic is nice, though.
Cindy as RX'd -- 21 Rounds
27 min 4 mile warm up.
Cindy X 21 +5 pullups.

Anyone want to try this with a 40lb Weight Vest?
Have never seen anyone post a score with a +40 load.
Shoot me an email, I might not get to this til Thursday.
-Jerry
ARe the pullups suppose to be L-Pullups as in the picture?
Cindy
13 rounds + 1 pullup
Figured out how to do better pullups--usually jumping, but the bar is at about head height already, so I just barely used my legs and did a lot more of the positive movement than just the negative.
Had very little energy today...thinking I'm not eating enough. Lots of little rests added up.
This may have been asked already in a different format that I may have missed, but are the 15 squats for Cindy bodyweight only?
Thanks....
Cindy: 20 rounds in 19:25.

Hampton,
Do kipping pull-ups if you can! If you can't then just do whatever variation you are capable of.
"Mary"
Tommy A.: 8 rounds + (5hspu, 5 left leg squats)
GAK: 8 rounds (assisted hspu)
Capt L
GySgt M
Sgt W
Cpl J
LT G
We mixed it up a bit and did a sprint workout in between rounds. Went like this, one Mary Round, one slow lap (400m), one fast lap (race pace, 3 mile), then one Mary round x 6. No rest. We found that with the "rest"(running) between rounds, the upper body did not get overly taxed.
Cindy
17 rounds
Up from 13+ rounds 060408
(#32)gaucoin13 - keep practicing them. I used to feel the same way at 6'2"+ but they're coming around. One way to work on them is to set the smith machine bar up as your pullup bar. That way, you can start the pullup sitting on the ground with your body already in the proper position, instead of trying to bring your legs up when you're hanging from the pullup bar - it makes it a lot easier!
Cindy -- 21.67 rounds; 1.67 improvement!!
Thanks Pierre.
I am capable of the L-pullups, its just that the exercise description doesn't specify L-pullups in "Cindy" or "Mary", but the picture shows them. Its a bit confusing.
So I assume we are to perform L-Pullups, correct?
Cindy
16 rnds +5+7
Improved from last time(15+5).
Cindy
20 rounds
+ 10lb weight vest
23 rds. Pull-ups were dead-hang.
3 rds off my PR. I guess the steak and cigar dinner last night slowed me down.
My first WOD. 35 lbs overweight. 4 hours sleep.
Cindy- 9 rounds
help-myself-up & lower 3/4 down pullups
push ups on my knees
Sweatin' like a pig. I'm gonna sleep good tonight!
"Cindy" modified to include a 1 1/2" diameter rope and a 60# loosely packed sandbag:
2 7' hands only rope climbs, each ascent starting from a sit on the floor
10 HSPUs, nose to carpet and full elbow lockout each rep
15 60# sandbag butt to ground squats with full hip extension; sandbag cleaned to a shoulder for the squats.
9 rounds plus 2 seven foot rope climbs in 20 minutes. Rope climbs were strong and HSPUs unbroken with a fair number unsupported. It was the sandbag squats that kicked me in the backside - the uneven weight worked my core, glutes, hams and quads differently than a bar. Fun WOD!
Cindy
15 Rounds
CF since 1/1/06; my first "Cindy" was 8 rounds with the Gravitron set on 9. Powerful stuff, this Kool-Aid!
Darrell
Cindy - 23 (pr by 2) w/ ring pullups
Been on a lay off with back pain (hurt doing squats) and had a bout with that nasty flu virus. But, back in the saddle, and did ok.
Jump Rope - 2 minutes
CFWU x 3 (no pull ups, no squats)
11 rounds, 5 pull ups
Seemed faster than last time. Kind of odd I did less. Probably slow from lay off.
Did an hour and a half of PT, then did Cindy.
29 rounds in 19:44
Cindy: 22 rounds + 5 pullups
all kipping pullups; no broken sets
BW:164
~1/2 round better than last time
Cindy as Rx'd
20 rnds + 5 Pullups +7 Pushups
3 rnds better than last time
44 yrs old BW 210 lbs
Mary as RXed.
Total rounds: 11 + 5 HSPU + 10 OLS + 7 PU
All HSPU and OLS unbroken.
PUs broken as follows:
R1: 15
R2: 10-5
R3: 9-6
R4: 7-5-3

R8: 7-5-3
R9: 7-5-3
R10: 7-5-3
R11: 7-4-4
R12: 5-2
Previous best was 10 rounds + 5 HSPU + 10 OLS (2006-02-14). Beat it by 1 full round + 7 PUs.
HSPU done against wall with about 10” ROM.
OLS done holding door frame for support (and a little assist).
Wow, once again I set a PR on practically no sleep.
"Cindy" -- 19 rounds in 19:43.
2 rounds better than my last Cindy 3 months ago.
Had to leave my date with Cindy early. I got to eight rounds and couldn't continue. Tennis elbow from rope climbs was throbbing. I was at eight minutes work. On good pace and not too smoked.
I also added my usual 10 situps to the mix. Just keepin' it real for the APFT!
Had a new addition to our Baghdad Cult, I mean, Club. Put him through the paces. Did well...
Thanks Coach!
-Dennis
I've done Ciny Several times allready so I decided to do Mary for the first time today. I did 8 Rounds with 5 HSPU's 10 OLS both legs and 10 PU's (did the other 5 for good measures after the time ran out anyway.)
Question: On the OLS, I did 10 left leg, THEN another 10 right leg. Is that correct?
24 and 5 pullups, pr stii 25 in 19:52
first 19 strict pullups, all sets unbroken
squats still slowing me down.
32.86,35.83,43.19,45.2,50.87,50.06,49.61,48.6,46.79,55,50.54,45.67,51.23,54.81,55.09,57,58.44,55.83,58.93,51.38,56.6,57.35,39.62,39.46, and 5 pullups.
Did deadlifts yesterday that may have slowed me down.
Mary = 11 rnds.+5HSPU's+ 5 alt.single leg squats
I would like to ask the CrossFit community to keep the Fairfax County Police Dept. in their thoughts and prayers. Several Police Officers were ambushed in the parking lot of their sub station yesterday. Detective Vicki Armel lost her life. Her Husband is also a Fairfax County Detective. They have 2 young children.Another Officer is still in critical condition at this time. Two other Officers received minor injuries.The sniper was killed.
Cindy as Rx: 24 cycles.
This is my second time for Cindy. First time got 17 cycles. So I'm seeing great improvement.
BW first time 170
BW now 164
Cindy @ 16+ rounds (-5 from PB)
Just got over a wicked stomach virus from the weekend and Cindy felt like a good immune system boost. Did post- WOD cardio on bike.
Jeff (#71)
Sorry to hear about your officers. May the killer BURN IN HELL for all I care. Thoughts and prayers are with you all.
Love the WOD ESP. Had to take some days off for moving and such...didn't want to take yesterday, but lacked equipment. Did Cindy. Reached my 2006 goal of 20 rounds- up from 17 in Jan.

Never thought I'd say this, but God I miss Cindy
JeffT,
Many thoughts and prayers to the FCPD and the friends and families of all those involved; events such as these hit too close to home.
And, at the risk of sounding politically incorrect; I'm glad to hear they smoked the son of a bitch.

Then did 5 rounds of:
Row 250m
55lb db swings, 20 reps
in 8:31. Not an all out effort but all unbroken with rows about 1:45 pace. Nice little met-con smoker.
Cheers, kempie
Cindy
14 rounds; pushups and squats were easy. Broken sets for pullups. Still weak on pullups. I am going to start "greasing the groove" as prescribed on the message board. Hopefully that will help.

I've been wondering for some time about lock out on l-pull-ups. As I see in the picture, and as I've noticed on my own, the lock out leaves me some distance from the bar unless I really stretch to get close. I'm guessing from the picture that this is OK? I've always thought it was fine, since I was going to near nipple level...

8 rounds of Cindy in 18 minutes. 80# on the Gravitron, perhaps too high cos the pull-ups were a lot easier than the push-ups.
Could've gotten 9 or at least 8.5 rounds but another person stole the Gravitron from me in our public gym. I'm gonna call whine-one-one and get the waaaaahmbulance!!

First Cindy and 3rd real crossfit WOD since Hernia operation. Just under 17 rounds- down from January by 2 rounds. Not dissapointing though since I just had an operation and I wasn't going insane. I think Cindy is Pukie in drag and I got a surprise. I Dumped Pukie and ate some saltines before I ran 2 miles- plus I needed to cool down- it was around 90 degrees!

Notes: Last time around was 9 + 5 + 10 with 40# assist on pull-ups. This time all pull-ups were kipping, no assist. So basically I PR'd by almost 4 rounds with legit pull-ups. Thanks Coach for providing the work and opportunity to make such significant improvements in overall strength and endurance!
Oh, BTW, doing kipping pull-ups on the jungle gym's 2x4 has given me whole new and different set of ripped open callouses across the mid-palm of both my hands. So I got that going for me...which is nice...

hey sharon and bozman...thanks for the info. i didnt even think of that possibilty...however it is the most preferable now that i consider it against the other two. i wouldve been totally off.
Hi all,
Workout as follows ALL WEIGHT IN KILOS

Jon Ride 2 miles (5:13). D 165x2x10 SW/ PP 75x2x10 (14:50). Bdw. 82.5.
Until tomorrow...
Cindy -
17 rounds + 3 pullups
Last time was 17 rounds + 2 pullups
But.....this time all pullups were unassisted and almost all from a dead hang - only the last 4-5 rounds did I have to kip at all. All pushups were full ROM. I'm pretty sure last time I was on the gravitron by the end and doing pushups on my knees.
Gym is closed for renovations, so after some hunting around, I discovered a little park nearby with a 1/4 mi track and fitness area - pullup bars, dip bars, etc. Never would have found it otherwise!
Cindy, 15 rounds. Yesterday I went to the ortho doc and he shot my shoulder full of cortisone. Today was the first day I've been able to do more than a couple of body weight pullups.

squats to Dynamax ball
only 15 rounds today... I am such a poon.
Lunch was coming out and I was feeling quite weak, did Cindy by the way. Got 17 rounds last time
Up in the morning with the rising sun,
21 Rounds with Cindy and I was done.
Singing Low righty left right...
First ever WOD so I stuck with Cindy because the HSPUs are still a bit much for me. Also managed to trick my regular workout partner into trying the WOD by saying it was a "new warm-up routine."
Anyway, managed 13 rounds as rx'd with full deadhang pull-ups. Started breaking pull-ups at 8th set to 4+1 and then 3+2. Partner finished 8 rounds.
Very humbling experience, especially when comparing results to those of more experienced crossfitters.
Cindy as R'd, squats to Dynamax
21 rds, up from 19.
Jeff #71, my thoughts are with you and the families of your fellow officers. God Bless.
Did seven rounds of modified combination
5 HSPUs (Military shoulder press of 180 lbs) - more difficult than the angled HSPUs that I was doing)
10 pullups
15 single leg leg presses (180 lbs for each leg)
Cindy
9 rounds with assist band on pullups @ CF Atlanta

Good luck in your training,
-K
12 rounds plus 2 pull ups
I did kipping pull ups as much as possible but had to sub jumping pull ups with a negative for most of them.
4 rounds less than last time, but I did body rows last time.
Cindy: Did 15 rounds (+ 5 pullups). A PR!
Last best was 14 rounds using Gravitron for pulls. Today's pullups were on bar, but just half ups (top range only) to allow my elbow to heal more.
Felt great!
2 hour surf session this morning...felt tired going into this:

Marv,
Were you wearing a weight vest?
The standard CFWU seemed too similar to the WOD. Biked to the gym and did a 10 minutes martial arts workout instead. Modified Cindy to make it a little harder: pushups on blocks, overhead squats with a 10 pound steel bar. 11 rounds. Last two rounds had broken sets.
My first WOD (on the day it is supposed to be done)..I've been cruising the archives and easing my way into it.
BW- 236 30% BF (yea..I know..not good).
First week on Crossfit.
5 rounds of Cindy (assisted pull-ups on a Cybex)
-Jim
Warm-Up:
DL 305# 2x5 (This was my one rep max a month ago.)
Completed 3 rounds in 00:01:51, was kindly interupted, then started over.
22 rounds with 2 seconds left on the clock.
1/2 mile sprint warmup
Just to get the heart pumpin.
12 rounds 20 minutes 4 better than last time.
Its workin!!!!
"Cindy" 19 rounds
Performance clearly lacking... considering its finals week, my diet and sleep have suffered couple that with high stress I'm not surprised I did so poorly.
On a lighter note I was feeling crappy all day but after doing that workout I feel much better.
Matthew, 77.6kg, 10.3% Mary 9 rounds. Aim for ten next time. Plenty of room for improvement.
George, Cindy 22 rounds, plus 5.
Cindy as rx'd
full 17 rounds
3 round improvement
17 on Cindy
Hardest part was trying to stay focused... I have always zoned out on repetitive bodyweight exercises.
Cindy
16+3 - just less than 3 rd. improvement.
Got some good kips in but my upper lat tie-ins are already really sore just 30 minutes after the workout.
This is a great a workout...15 rounds of Cindy.
cindy
11 rounds even, down from 12 last time
positives: no broken pullup or pushup sets
negatives: squats were difficult and the heat index was probably 105...and i was outside.
Cindy: 22 + 5 + 4 = PR by the about 5 reps
Push-ups and squats unbroken. Pull-ups very broken after 7th round. That's where I need to focus. First 10 rounds in 7:15. The rest averaged one minute each.
am gymnastics practice -
L-sit, tuck sit to tuck hip lift, L-pullup 2/10, 4/5, HS holds 3/30 sec front/back
arms-only rope climb 15 ft - 5 ascends
straight-arm leg lift on rings - 3/5
cindy - 19 rds
Crossfit Plano
This was my first WOD in 3 months, I am a High School Baseball Coach so during the season I did not have time to work out, but today I am back and I completed 8 rounds of Cindy.
Time for a threesome...
Mary - 9 rounds on the nose
** 15 min. rest ***
Cindy (w/ring pullups and a 25lb. vest) - 22 rounds + 5 pullups and 1 pushup
Depending on how you want to count, WODs were either 3rd workout of the day or 3rd and 4th.
Group Moffett 2
completed 10-14 rounds of "MARY" down here in Florida. It has been 7 days since our last WOD.
cindy

bw 89,3 kg, the zone is working
Cindy 20 rounds

JeffT, take care,God's bless
Going on 2nd week of Crossfit. Love it so far.
First Cindy: 14 rounds +5 pull ups + 10 push ups.
Did 1:45:00 bike ride warm up, roughly 35 miles.
Workout #1- 500yd Freestyle(running short on time at the pool)
Workout #2- CFWU x3(-pull-ups, +ball push-ups)
WOD
23rds 5pullups, 10 push-ups
Just wasn't feeling it today. Felt spent since I woke up. Might be lack of decent sleep. Who knows. Maybe I just need to stop acting like a little girl and sack up. 15 squats short of matching my PR of 24. Squats were only to parallel. They didn't feel to good.
I think I need to switch from pints of stout to pints Kool-Aid for awhile to recharge my batteries. Yah, and maybe not.
Get some, Go again!
Cindy
14 complete rounds
1 partial round of 5 pullups and 6 pushups
Cindy 16 rounds, 1 better than last time. Maybe could have done 17 or 18 but legs still tired from Sundays Triathlon.

I am new to the cross fit workouts, about two weeks in, and was excited about this one. I did 10 rounds of the Cindy. Can someone give me some insight here...is that below average, average or pretty good for a beginner to this style of workouts?

Cindy. 9 rounds. Em-BARASSING. Argh. Mitigation: tweaked my lower back a few weeks ago and have been taking it easy, and lost some conditioning there. I think there may be some tabata's in my near future. Argh, again.
Mark,
We all start at different levels. I started out w/12 if I remember correctly. Maybe more. I thought that I was in pretty good shape. Yah, I was wrong. Remember it's the journey not the beginning. Just keep at it and watch the numbers improve w/disbelief.
hey franz
21rnds+10 squats...and 3 dry heaves
No Billy, no weightvest, just a tubesock of fat I guess. Tommorrow is another day tuffnuts.

First attempt at "Cindy". I don't know what was worse. The five pull ups or the 15 squats.
I'm 40 and compete in Judo. This series has improved my stamina and helped with the recovery from a MCL injury.

"Shingles comeback"
20 rounds in 20 minutes of Cindy. Can't complain for being a little off.......
Cindy x10 using pull-up machine
Mary
12 complete rounds- HSPUs were to a 2 inch pillow.
1st WOD after a week off. Working hard to defend my dissertation next week and have been eating poorly and only sleeping around 4-5 hours per night.
Stronger than last time, but completely exhausted half way through.
10 minutes - 8 rounds.
CFWU X 1
Jaw-jacked on the phone with a buddy about fishing
CFWU X 1
7 circuits in 11:30
That's enough for me for now - trying to be smart about easing into all of this.
Cindy - 12 rounds at the buzzer. Down by one round from last time, but it was miserably hot in the garage gym tonight. 95 outsde, 89 in the garage. Roughly 400% humidity, give or take a bit.
All pullups kipping and unbroken. Pushups a bit weaker this time. Had to go to knees on set 6. Getting a breakthrough on kips - smoother, but slower swing, getting much higher over the bar this time.
"Cindy" as rxd - first attempt.
Only six rounds, was shooting for ten. Could've done at least two more rounds without too much trouble. Need to work on kipping pullup.
team tikrit (campbell forward):
mfbunch:
16 rds + 5 pu, 5.5 (muscle failure on #6) push-ups
for all the army folks out there-don't succumb to the temptation to do pushups apft style and squats to knee-bender style. go full range of motion (chest to floor, elbows locked at top on push-ups; and butt to as close to ankles as your flexibility and balance will allow on squats); this makes the difference between 29 rounds w/sloppy form and 16 rounds with strict form and you will get a better workout
Talissa: Did "modified Cindy" since I had no PU bar in LA.
10 Pushups, 15 Situps, 20 squats in 20 min:
I did 17 rounds
First WOD, first of many to come...
Thought I was strong and a solid runner...
8 rounds +5
New crossfit convert, for sure.
9 rounds + 2 pullups for Cindy
I was surprsingly energized this WOD, and I believe its due to Crossfit. I do, however, feel I could have gone much faster than I did.
I was SO close to 10! And for those who lose count easily, this is how I marked my progress:
Wipe a finger on your forehead to collect an immense amount of sweat and wipe it on a mirror after each round. After the 20 minutes, breath on where you marked and count the number of marks! People thought I was gross but it's the price I pay for fitness.
JeffT #71, the FPD is in my thoughts, especially the two children and their father.
WOD: First time with Cindy, in fact my first time with any of the girls.
7 rounds in 19:54
pull-ups with my new doorway bar and therabands
push-ups on an incline (the easier kind, not the harder kind)
squats to thighs parallel to ground -- I could go deeper, but am worried about my knee until I gain strength and muscular balance in my legs
Since pull-ups were the easiest part, I conclude that I used way too much assistance. I haven't done a pull-up since I was 14, so those should have been the bottleneck.
HR 168 at end.
...it can only go up from here!
Did wod "mary" 12 reps,wanted to try and do both workouts but "to many women not enough time!But I also did a run of 2 miles.
Cindy
17 plus 5 pullups and 5 pushups. I've done better, I think.
Mary
12 rds in 20:03
HSPU nose to floor, many without wall. Still trying to find that balance.
One leg squats to milk crate for depth.(savd me some time)
Pull-ups unbroken through set 8. Finished with 10/5 for last 4.
Great Workout! So simple yet so effective!
Cindy, 25 rounds
Its funny that I was at round 16 at around the 00:10:00 mark...
KT: 6 rnd in ten min, then break before doing more
Ali: 4 rnds in ten min, before doing more
Good workout to start Crossfit with regualrly!! We had a great time, and am learning to concentrate on form... both of us new- and eagerly awaiting for tomorrows!
Got 2 new guys working out with me now. They got about 16 rounds of cindy I hit 18 with 2 minutes left, ran a preworkout 2.5 mile so that mightve slowed me down I dunno. We're working on handstands till we get em down. Thanks for the great workouts, everyone in the gym out here in the desert keeps asking me what Im doing, it's pretty funny. Take care everyone
20X[5 X Broken Jumping PUs + 10 Pushups + 15 Squats]
I can feel a good progression especially in my pullups.
Cindy: 13 rounds (I think)
Did this WOD in the playground with my 1-yr-old son and his "girlfriend" pestering me, so I may have lost count. Much less focus than when I'm in the gym. Did 14 rounds last time, so probably could've equalled or improved on that total.
************************************************
Cindy as rx'd 14 plus 5 pull -ups then 8 push -ups.
************************************************
My first post. I've been a "stealth" crossfitter for about a month, but had to take a week off due to rippin' headaches. I see from the messsage board that others have suffered from this as well. Better now. Should I be concerned?
9 rounds + 5pu and 10 push ups (did the 15 squats after the fact - 20:22). All pu on grav at #12 or jumping. Just getting back into working out after 10 years of being a couch potato. Lovin' it!
Cindy:22 rounds. 3 less than last time. Haven't been getting much sleep lately.
3x5x22#squats
3x10x00#dbs shrugs

Danced with Mary.
First "official" Crossfit workout:
Cindy for 12 rounds
(did pullups on a Total Gym slidy-inclined-bench thing; did pushups on knees)...I hope by next time I can do the pullups unassisted and full pushups.
Thanks to Scott McAndrews, my friend and inspiration for starting CrossFit; died on Mammoth Mountain Ski Patrol 4/6/06. His spirit is with me as I take up the mantle of "Crossfit Eastside" (Eastern Sierra, that is).
Cindy
12 rounds.
This is my second time doing Cindy, first time was about 9 rounds and I had only had about 20kg on the assist for the pull up this time. Last time it was about 35kg. So I think I can call that a successful improvement.
did cindy and managed 21 rnds (pr 25)

Modified Cindy - 5 PU (kipping)/10 Push Ups/10 Sit Ups/15 Squats
14 Rounds + 5 PU
14 rounds even (probably could have finished another half a round if I wasn't huffin and puffin so hard)...
Finally a true cindy :). First as r'xd

Hello everyone!
Well I was aiming for 15 rounds of Cindy but was sore from yesterdays so this is all I managed almost at my PB of 14 though which I achieved with assist. Next step is doing this without any jumping pull ups.
Rounds = 13
London Crossfitter!
CINDY 11 rounds w/23 lb flak vest
followed by 5 mile run.
2 weeks into crossfit, love it !
"Cindy" in India!

jumping pullups
good form on squats but harder to maintain on the pushups
post-WOD: 3 rounds of 5-min. treadmill run + 5-minute C2 rowing
17 rounds as rx'd = 4 pushups
Worked out with Konantz doing "Cindy"
I did 15 sets with assist on pull-ups
He did 15 sets with no assist, with an extra set of pull-ups

Later pullups were a little weak in form.
Correction
Time was 13:50 for PP 75 kilosx2x10 SW/ DL 165 kilosx2x10.
Same time for Lisa.
Cindy scaled:
Complete as many rounds in 20 minutes as you can of:
3 Pull-ups
6 Push-ups
9 Squats
13 Rounds 20:11
Pull-ups were assisted but they are getting easier and less assisted. The last several rounds of push-ups were down normal; knees up. Squats were the easy part of Cindy. I have always loved squats.
People were really looking at me weird with this one. I love it!!
JFG
Dropped to 23 rounds from 26 last time.
Back in the fray . . . CFWU 3x15. BW: 205. 10 rounds of Cindy. Weak, but gotta start back somewhere.
Cindy: 12
pullups assisted 30-40-50
CFWUx3 (sub leg raises for pullups)
Cindy 20 rounds (38-40 seconds per round 20 second rest), so really finished in 19:40.
Next time I'll have to increase to 1 round per 55 seconds (that's going to be fun trying to keep track of).
5 round improvement, thanks coach/crossfit/Rick Ihrie!
cfwu x 2, minus dips and pullups, then
as rx'ed:
12 rounds
Finished 16th round of Cindy at 19:32. No sets broken. Pullups kipped. Spotting others on bench press and waiting for pullup bar kind of screwed up my time.
Cindy:
Been up to 24 rounds before, but questionable on full ROM. Tried a different approach today, driving each rep to full ROM. I'm not used to this, so lots of repeats.
8 rounds
included sit-ups
(5 Pullups, 10 pushups, 10 situps, 15 squats)
13 + 2 Pullups
last 4 sets included some jumping pullups
20 rounds Cindy
1 better than 15.2.06
Mary is tough....Cindy is cruel.
17 rounds same as last time.
Mary
5 Pull-ups shy of 7 rounds. Slightly assisted SL Squats, and not killing it speed-wise, so I'm happy.
Cindy Rehab (still rehabbing MCL of right knee) - 13 rounds plus 5 pullups
situps subbed for squats - very gingerly moved from sitting position.
Cindy - 24 rounds. Just a couple squats shy of 25. I am running a day back due to in service training.

Well maybe i didnt beat you or tie you but i got one more round then last time at 15 rounds in 20 mins
PPD Results (Con't)

Meh. 12 rounds Cindy. All PU dead hang.
40lb Weight Vest
20 rounds
Did this one a day late.
18 rounds - up from last time and approaching that elusive 20.
Cindy 12 rounds.
Did kipping pull ups through round 8, then jumping. Did all Gravitron and 10 rounds last time so that was good improvement.
i did 10 rounds plus 120 extra pushups and 15 extra pull ups, although it took me an extra 15 mins to do the extra push-ups and pull ups
Cindy - 18 rounds. New PR.
Cindy 20 rounds subbed L-pull ups for reg pull ups.
cindy
14 rounds + 5/4 (pr by 3 rounds)
Cindy - 22 @ 20:24
Pull ups on the big bar @ 31's today (seems to have a lot more bounce on the kip)
bwt: 195lbs.
10 rounds
subbed assisted pullups (50 - 70 lbs off bwt) after 3rd round so I could get full range of motion instead of just jumping and negatives...
failed to mention that it was Cindy. Also forgot to mention that after round 7 I had to use knee-pushups to get full range of motion. Hope to improve all around next time.
Cincy as RXd: 23 rounds + 5 Pull-ups, 10 push-ups, 7 squats.
24 next time!
Cindy
14 rounds
PU - jumping kips
Pushups - knees
Tried Mary for the first time.
7 rounds + 5 HSPU, 10 squats, 8 PU.
Have had a horrible two days at work. Probably my worst ever. Can't sleep at night. Then, true to form, I got a PR on Cindy - 21 rounds, with good ROM on pushups and pretty decent ROM on pullups. Think I may have been able to add a full round if I hadn't have been displaced form my usual pullup bar mid-workout.
Tariq
Horrible two days at work. Can't sleep at night, hating life. Then, true to form, I squeezed out a PR at Cindy - 21 rounds. Would have maybe had 22 if I hadn't have been displaced from my pullup bar mid-workout.

finally getting close to my PR of 17 from last July
pullups and squats unbroken; pushups terribly broken after 4th rd.; pushup form/ROM could be better as I tire but still seemed acceptable to me; would be useful for me to video these to tell for sure.
BWt = 155
Cindy 14 rounds + 5 pull-ups (PR)
BW = 257

10 rounds in 20 min.
4 rounds of Cindy in 12 minutes. I might have gotten another round in if I hadn't had to cut short my workout, but 20 was already a lot more pullups than I thought I could do.
Mary: 13 rounds in 20:05
Did 10 pistols all on 1 leg, then the other leg next round. I can't wait to try alternating legs in the same round...
Used a pole for balnce, great depth...A2A
I was marking each round as I went on a piece of paper and totally miscounted how many rounds I did on my previous post (post #367). The correct amount is:
23 Rounds + 5 chinups
Cindy
9 rounds even
Warm up 15 inverted burpees
CFWU (minus pull-ups and dips)
I'm shocked.. I mean when I started crossfit just before the new years I did cindy a little over 11rounds.. 16 late febuary...
19rds + 5 Pullups with 5seconds to spare..
Crossfit is amazing.
17 rounds plus 5 p.u.
up from 14 rounds
1 Mile Training Run (7.20)
WOD as RX'd
14 Rounds, 5 Pull-ups....
11 rounds in 20:36 -- PR by about 30 secs.
(It's easier to count rounds and time than "fractions," so I just finish whichever round takes me past 20 minutes.)
I really have trouble gaining and maintaining pushup strength -- most sets were very, very broken.
Cindy...21 rounds at the gym....people kept looking at me and wondering what I was up to...I was sweating!!!!
Pull-ups broken, but all others good
18 rounds of Cindy
improvement of 3 since April
Cindy 25 rounds. Down on pb, but happy enough - at the end of a long week and squats getting deeper each time.
13 rounds + 4 pull ups
Nice!
Ups sorry forgot that was Cindy.
I am working 1 week behind on the WODs. The logistics are easier.
Cindy

Looking to cut the recovery time between sets on the next go.
