Have fun with Cindy!!

Fellow Cross-Fitters,

I'm just two days removed from ankle surgery and am now the proud owner of a cast from my toes to just below the knee. Obviously, WOD's are out the window right now but I need suggestions on what I can be doing. I'm noticing some fairly consistent discomfort in my hips due to the imbalance created by wearing the cast on my right side. Any suggestions on how the eleviate that will be greatly appreciated along with exercise suggestions.

Thanks a million!

Well, my wife's name is Cindy, so...

YESSS this is one of my favorites.....test test test lets seee who is really improving!

Team UB Xfitt

Is there a good video of the one legged squat? What do you do with the other leg while squatting? Finally, how does the alternating legs work? Alternate each rep? Or switch legs each round? Thanks.

Good question about the one legged squat. Are we aiming for pistol squats (A2A with non-supporting leg extended in front) or is there another method that is equally acceptable?

Cill, you still got that model thing going on even though you are a kick ass crossfitter! Your a swan! Hollis, you look cute too.

Thanks Eva T. The watch from the manufacturer you recommended kicks axe!

I love this WOD...

Cindy as Rx: 20 rounds in 19:50. No jumping pull ups!

I really tried hard on Michael 2 days ago - went to TKD with sore hammies last night hoping for a technical pattern practice or some self defence. What did we do? Interval sprints and calisthenics. Joy. Overnight my hamstrings left my body and hung themselves out to dry.

Nathan bwt:198 11 sets
Nathan just got back from leave so he's a little out of shape, the omelete a half hour before probably didn't help. he said pukie wouldn't leave him alone

not a bad workout for the day, I love Cindy. I had to shove some guy off our only pullup bar to finish my sets but

I managed to do Cindy 15rds

Heres something I am never sure of, how much weight do we use for the squats?

Mary - 12 rounds + 5 HSPUs and 4 pistols

Chin grip or mixed grip (palm facing me on right hand) kipping pullups a try. Chin (or parallel) grip doesn't seem to increase the aggravation in my shoulder. Chin grip pullups used to be weak....getting better with more practice.

GregOHio - no weight on the squats unless the WOD specifies to do so.

Good to see you back Kelly Moore. Excellent work as always. Hope the shoulder is behaving.

"Short Progressive Mary"
Complete as many full rounds in whatever time you can remain standing as you can of:
15 seconds total of holding kicks to handstand
10 One legged squats, alternating, negatives only
15 Jumping pull-ups

Total rounds = 3 in 12:45

Notes: This is the first WOD I've done first thing in the morning. Very significant difference from a warm-up standpoint. Decided to include "Short Progressive Mary" because I need to work on those movements and continue to build strength in those areas before I can legitimately consider doing Mary instead of Cindy. Nothing quite like CrossFit for identifying your weakness then repeatedly beating you about the head and shoulders (literally) with it.

Cindy - 23 rounds
Personal Record

"Mary" 9 rounds plus 5 hspu's. First time with Mary. One legged squats weren't too deep and I needed hand support for balance, pulllups kipped, varied grips. Thanks, Coach.

18 rds + 3 p/us (all p/us strict deadhang, non-kipping) of Cindy as rx'd. Form good throughout.

Cindy was my first WOD when I started Xfit six weeks ago on 9 May 06. So this is a great progress check for me. On my first go at Cindy I completed 13 rds with the pull-up sets being broken after the 8th rd.

Today, I made it through 18 rnds (+3 p/us) with no broken sets and an almost 50% improvement in my rounds completed - after only six weeks on Xfit!

Next goal: 20rnds for the next time we do Cindy.

Ok, I only got 10 rounds as rx'd. Is there something wrong with me? This is 4th WOD and my first week. I expected to do better. Humbling experience. Also, had to finish with modified pushups and did JPU the whole time.

{Ride level 10 (1/4 mile); Ring dipx15; ride (same as previous); and Pull-upx15}x3. Three sets, not six. My totals were 1.5 miles at 10 and 45 dips and pull-ups each.
I'm in fine fettle but I am not preternatural!
Later...

Suggestion for those having trouble with the one-leg squats....

When I first started doing them, I couldn't really do the "pistol", so I stood on a bench and let the non-working leg hang down while I squatted. As my legs got stronger I was then able to transition to the pistol verson. That may work for some of you.

Hope that helps.

BW 181, M 30

First five rounds to standard, the rest I did negatives on the push ups.

Catherine: 6 rounds in 10 minutes of Cindy. Left for work. Next time, full volume...

Ditto what Eva and Vince said.

Bum Wheel (#4) you might have better chances on the message board with you question, but I can give some advice to get you started.

Have you tried wearing an ankle weight on the other leg to compensate for the weight difference? I would also reccomend exercising the good leg as much as possible to help stimulate healing of the bad leg. Don't look at this as a hinderance, look at it as 'forced specialization' and do tons of upperbody work.

If you search the WOD archives, you can find allstars like Lani Lau and Grady Mac were able to take their leg injuries in stride (so to speak), and it hardly slowed them down (like G.Mac reaching something approximating 53 consec pull ups after a meniscus surgery or something like that).

Last time, 12 rounds of assisted pullups and knees pushups.
Today, 15 rounds of pullups (kipping) and regular pushups. I'd call that an improvement!

22 rounds +5 pull-ups and 5 push-ups (PR) 20 rounds last time.
10 rounds at 8:07 (9 seconds better then last time)

Really felt the CF conditioning that I've gained over the last few weeks helping me in the last 12 rounds. I didn't get nearly as gassed there at the end, and probably could have hit an even 23 if people hadn't been banging on the door of our gym having forgetten the card-keys (corp. fitness center). But alas....excuses, excuses. Still, I set out to beat my last time and I did. :)

Dropped The CF Link on a couple Lads on my way out of the gym - is there something about a near hypoxic state, with Pukie a-knocking, that compells one to spread the joy?

Anyway, I'll be interested to see if they follow up on it - my sucess rate with converts is surprising low.

Cindy, as rx'd:

10 rounds complete at 8:55, then started slowing down from there. Still, pretty good form throughout; was doing kipping pullups on the last 2 pullups of each 5 by the end, but all pushups were legit.

One of my fellow officers told me about crossfit and how powerful the workouts have been. So now I am hooked. This will be my third straight week.

But the most important thing I have notice is how many police officers are doing the crossfit training. The older we get, perps stay young.

Sad News:

This is for you fellow officers and all the people who beleive in us. Dekalb Co. Police Officer Dennis Stepnowski was shot and killed yesterday. He was an outstanding officers, he never ran from anyone and never left his partner hanging. One hell of a officer.

One last thing, before passing he assisted in taking out that SOB. Perp was DOA at the scene. All I ask is that you put Dennis' family and my fellow officers in your prayers.

Thanks.

Oh yeah - one more full round than last time (17 + 3 pullups then).

It helped that I wore gloves: I could grab the bar without worrying about ripping off a calus and I could drop down on the floor immediately after the pullups.

Beautiful day for crossfit! Had my first date with Mary at 1430: 13 rds. + 5 HSPU + 10 pistols + 1 PU. Did Cindy at 1715: 28 rds. This is one less than last time, but I was definately feeling it from Mary earlier. Have a safe 4th of July weekend everyone!

Cindy, as Rx'd:

In retrospect, I should have gone for #27 even if I didn't get there, but I was pretty gassed!

All sets unbroken. This was a great workout.

Third time doing Cindy - 20!
So many awesome times today, but #113 Sarah - fantastic improvement! and Pooz, #124, also amazing, but how did you get clear up to 22 without doing tons of "worthy" workouts before this?

Of Cindy

I hate to admit it, but Cindy kicked my ass. 15 rounds was the most I could muster. This is only my 4th day on the CrossFit program, so I'm looking to improve.

Cindy
22 rounds plus 5 pullups.

1500m on the C2
CFWU (less PU and SQ)

14 rounds of Cindy as Rx'd, and I took a beating.

Thought I would hit 20 going in. Not even close.

Pukie was knocking on the door but I didn't let him out.

11 rounds of "Cindy." Wow, talk about a butt kicker, very surprised. This was my second WOD, and I am hooked! I actually made a mistake and ended up doing the following:

5 pull-ups
15 (oops!) push ups
15 squats

Good times...

Cindy As rxed:

28 sets
5 pullups and 7 pushups in 20 minutes

1/2 Cindy, 9 rounds.

Modified "Cindy"

Mary

Mary - first attempt at this WOD. I believe I made a mistake. I did 10 pistols right leg followed by 10 pistols left leg in each round. (oops). Oh well. Results are 5 rounds + 5 HSPU + 10 pistols right leg and 8 pistols left leg.

Mary
9+ rounds. Once again, I went for a pace that would give me 11 rounds and once again I got beat up. When I put myself on a 2 minute/round pace for an even 10 rounds, I get 10 rounds.

15 sets of Cindy as Rx'd

First time not using any assistance...it was awesome.

Few days away for the 4th. Have a good one.

23 Rds
+ 5 kippers
+ 9 Push ups

BW=200
HT=6'2"

Did Cindy...6 rounds in 20mins...substituted pull-ups with jumping pull-ups X10 per set...used straight bar (45lbs) for the squats and can hardly walk now. Could have done many more pull-ups and push-ups but the squats slowed me down...need to keep up with them and improve muscle endurance for more sets.

Cindy, as RXed.

Total rounds: 20 + 5 pull-ups + 3 push-ups

Best past performance was 25 + 5 pull-ups + 8 push-ups (2005-11-18), so down by 5 rounds and 5 push-ups.

Pull-ups done alternating pronated and supinated grips.

All push-ups done on push-up handles.

All squats done to Dynamax ball.

Seems like i just haven't any gas for the last little while. Performance has been a little questionable. Sounds like it might be time for a little rest.

AARGH I spent all day at work today trying to figure out how to get to the gym... just sold my car and got a stick shift I don't know how to drive yet. Was trying to decide between a) biking six miles each way to the gym b) trying to learn how to drive on hills by actually doing it (even though my lesson is in four days) or c) go to the sketchy park with the pullup bar even though it's closed at night.

The sketchy park was even more sketchy than usual on a Friday night, so now I get to decide whether to a) bring a chair to the sketchy park in the morning and try jumping pull-ups b) take the bus to the gym so I can get an accurate measure of how much I've improved since last time c) pay $10 for a guest pass at the gym 1 mile away so I can do one WOD in the morn and one at night.

Just wanted to write about my not-really-doing-the-WOD drama so you all can laugh with me. :)

Went rafting on the Rogue River today...fun!

Did 11 rounds of "Cindy" in 18:55. I have a question though. My workout partner and I were doing the squats with 245lbs. Were we supposed to be doing weight or just going through the motions without it? Just wondering because after 165 squats with 245lbs, we are both whooped but we were able to finish with pretty darn good form too.
