usually they dont look so bad on paper, but i think im going to die.

Holy mother, this one looks like a doozey.

A three round Jackie, eh? I thought one was bad enough...

i don't think the timer on my watch goes that long... :-p fun

Coach,

Well done! Crossfit is now a key player in the new Marine Corps Concept of Functional Fitness.

http://www.mcwl.usmc.mil/concepts/home.cfm

Now if we can get the rest of us Air Force types on board...we might start looking good in our Blues!

Blessings!
Dave Xfitting in Omaha

i don't have a rowing machine what is a good sub for that?

RobF:

Always check the FAQ. It's got loads of essential info:

http://www.crossfit.com/cf-info/faq.html#Substitutions5

X-Fit in Omaha...careful what you wish for. Funny thing though, the gym at the AFB in DC has $50,000 to set a Crossfit style gym in one of te raquetball courts. We have it pretty good in the AF...most of the gyms have everything we need to do Crossfit. If the service adopted it...believe me, it would get weak in a heart beat.

Dave at xfit in Omaha and CCT Joey,

I am an old retired guy from a very cool unit in the Army. I now live in a beautiful place near a Navy Base. I use the gym there every day. You would not believe the push back I get from the staff here. Every request for every piece of equipment that I have put in has been denied because of safety concerns. What crushes me more is that Coronado has probably the best gym and physical training facilities in Spec Ops. I have offered to buy climbing ropes and make wall ball boards but they will not even consider it. My current track is to find and talk to as many guys and girls as possible who work out hard and tell them to check out cross fit. I believe that if I can have 50 or 100 people ask every day for the same equipment that I ask for, we may get it. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

Billy

hey billy (#9),
A couple of my buddies and I work out at the Coronado gym too, so we will start asking for the equipment. Maybe we will get at least a climbing rope.

I just watched the "Miami Vice" DVD. Is it just me, or was that Annie co-starring as one of the good guys?

Looking forward to this challenge tomorrow.

Billy (#9):

Sounds like it's time to clear the car out the garage or carport...

#11 CCTJOEY

Yeah, I have seen some of the facilities ya'll at the STSs have. Indoor climbing walls, indoor helicopter mock-ups (fast rope included of course), PT pits and so-on. Pretty nice digs from what I've seen. And Hurby has nicer gyms than most AF bases. Yeah, I'm just jealous. But I really don't believe CrossFit will catch on in the "Big Blue". Though the AF has improved it's policies on PT, the big Air Force's motivation and inclination towards serious PT is still very much lacking to say the least. Not to pigeonhole everyone in the Air Force. But I think Crossfit will likely be confined to the special operations types. As always; that's just my opinion.
QA4, Afghanistan

I meant #8-CCTJOEY. Yes, I'm an idiot.

http://media.crossfit.com/cf-video/JackieAmundson552.wmv

To put Jackie (times 3) in perspective.

For today's WOD, if one can't do 30 pull-ups straight, is the idea to do small intervals with rest in-between until you call pull-off 30? Or, should I be looking to do some sort of assited-pullup for 30 straight?

gaucoin- I just read about your good news, congratulations!

Kate

Whew...That one is going to leave a mark...OUCH!

what setting should the C2 rower be at?

nevermind i found it...

Comment #10 Tim way to go, on getting the gym to hopefully step up.

Comment #12 Brian thanks for the e-mail. My wife and I have already drawn up plans and are buying the equipment one piece at a time :>)

Also, this WOD will be most excellent! I will have to cheat on the pull-ups though, 90 is way, way past my ability for now. I bow to all who will put "as rx'd" tomorrow.

Billy

That position that Eva is in, my college football team called those "Buffalo Hunters" we would have to hold them for minutes on end. Great exercise for pain, but also for building strength.

I just noticed that the time above the calendar on the crossfit homepage is ahead by one hour. OR crossfit is from the future :>)

Wow...this WoD makes me want to crawl into a hole and never come out.

On the other hand, Crossfit is (kinda) being implemented in the USAF...I know because I'm a PT leader and everyone in my squadron is required to do what I tell them...mwhahahaha...you just gotta start the revolution from the inside out.
The base UFPM is on board too...he's been a great help. Try getting that person to help you out, they can open doors you didn't know existed.

My body hurts just reading this.....

Billy (#22): Sharp eye on the clock. You may be the first to have pointed that out. We'll get it fixed. Thanks!

#9 Billy. Coronado of all places! Sounds like Demo Dick Marcinko was right when he was bemoaning the influx of wunderkind careerist types into spec op. it's been a whilel since I was at Bragg and cross training with the green beanies, but Im sure that haaving spec ops designated as an officer branch hasn't helped their situation.

CrossFit is making more inroads up north here in Canada too! This one is going to hurt.
Thanks!
By the way..where is that photo taken? I see the British Columbia and the Quebec Provincial flags as well as an England flag.
Oh and fine form too...!
Regards,

Kman,
Maybe all of the ST's "stupid careerist officers" have other things to think about instead of buying better gym equipment: like fighting the WOT. You sound like a real genius.

#30 Cor. Please quote me accurately. Interpetations of what I say are yours and yours alone. as for "fighting the WOT" thats what us sergeants are for! Stay outta the way and we'll git er done! Cur, I mean sir. (insert left handed salute here) K-
P.S. keep on thinking about those "other things" we appreciate it.

Nice to see the English flag in the background! Finish my cup of tea and then start i think. Gosh this is going to be fun!!

Coach and team...thank you for all you efforts. This is the fittest i've been since initial training (and probably ever!)

New to crossfit. For the 45lb thrusters, is that 45lb dumbbells, 45lb barbell, or 45's on each side of a barbell? Thanks for any input.

30:59,

subbed 800m run for the rowing, all sets of thrusters and pullups broken. This was tough.

To my US Air Force Bretheren posting on the CrossFit board...

CrossFit Jihad!!!

I'm at Wright Patterson AFB in Ohio, and have been bugging the crap out of everyone at my command and the Pentagon to implement CrossFit in our PT workouts. I even do a little grass roots assvertising at the gym with my "X-Fit" shorts. If everyone's going to stare at me for doing odd stuff like HSPUs and TGUs, then surely they'll read the back of my shorts...

I am a PT leader (not a big surprise) and when it's my show, it's 100% CrossFit. My geeks love it for the economy of time. I preach the gospel according to Coach. Nutrition, Anerobic vs. Aerobic, weight lifting, 100% effort, and above all the truth... Having been to the sandbox, I know first hand USAF PT standards are woefully inadequate. and in the real combat world it can get you killed FASTASTHAT.

Anyone I spy who seems even remotely in shape gets email forwards from me about CrossFitness, and I routinely send links from crossfit.com. I've gained more than a few X-Fit converts from DC to North Carolina. I've found a few CrossFit brothers over the typically abandoned C2 rowing machines, and am getting connected to other CrossFitters at WPAFB. I'm cherry picking a hot looking group of natural competitors to form the core of the Jihad. My cup will overflow when I get that hot looking MMA guy from JuJitsu class addicted...

I suggest that all of us sissies in Blue go after PA to send a reporter and photographer out to the gym to cover a hard core WOD staged amongst the X-Fit Bretheren. When the rest of the skinny armed and soft bellied blue suiters pick up a base paper to peruse over their decaf caramel lattes, I bet they'll spit up their almond biscotti in shock. Yes, Virginia, it IS possible to be Hollywood fit in such little time. Even as we wear our lame polyester pants and windex shoes.

Semper CrossFit!
-Karen

P.S. I fear this WOD, and yet I find myself strangely drawn to it...

Chris#42-

Another CrossFit USAF female here! I've met one other person here at Goodfellow who does CrossFit, and he's in the Army. I tell people about it too, but they mostly think I'm crazy. My boss said I was training to be a Navy SEAL. Oh well.

#44 Karen

Great post! I've been trying to preach Crossfit at the grassroots level up here as well.

I've only found one drawback: those previously unused C2 rowers that were once so accessible are starting to get busier!

Glad to see some Air Force peeps chiming in. And yes, the USAF PT gear is pretty awful. I had to wear it once and it gave me the worst wedgie. I spent more time trying to unwedge myself than actually PTing. Thank goodness I don't have to wear it.

QA4, Afghanistan

I've been lurking on here for over a year, but never posted; been x-fitting about that long as well, though tempered to my needs. But I now find an excuse to post - #46, "t's" post, about her boss' comment.

I'm a Combatives instructor with the Army stationed in Korea and one day in the gym one of my peers asked me why I trained so hard. No, actually, I think he asked it like, "What are you training for?", to be similiar to what "t's" boss meant.

I replied that I'm just training, like, it's a normal day for me. He shook his head and left.

The thought I have today as I read through these comments is this:
There is a reason that crossfit will remain a SOCOM modality and it is this same reason that the larger communities of our services will never officially drink the juice. The reason is that to be a good crossfitter - hell, to even be a horrible one - one needs a certain amount of self-motivation and drive; the same self-drive that gets one into SOCOM in the first place. Across the boards, our paper-pushers are not the same kind of person as our direct warfighters - period. Not trying to knock anyone or any lifestyle, but it is what it is.

I truly enjoy this community. Thanks.

Al

28:41 - I had to wait on the rowing machines to start the 2nd & 3rd rnds. - no big deal though.

Awesome workout.

hey for u coronado guys there are plenty of ropes on the teams side of NAB, and I'm pretty sure anyone can use them, oh and some of the teams at coronado have full cf facilities, I guess the base figures the average joes on the other side won't really use cf stuff, but pretty sure u all will receive if u continue to ask.

29 min for 2 rounds

and I am sorry for whatever I did to desrve this and I will not do it again!!!!

This is the first time to do the crossfit wod and it was amazing. It's been about a half hour and I am still shaking. I finished in 38:15 with a 1/2 mile sub for the rower and weight-assisted pull-ups for sets 2 and 3. The bad thing is this was my first day back to the gym after a long week of drinking over the holidays. I guess this was my punishment for not doing anything.

For #61--I share some of your thoughts; however, please don't give up on the masses. We have plenty of Soldiers who want and need CrossFit but simply haven't been exposed. The three you convert this year will convert three apiece next year, and someday, either you, or them, will be in a position of greater influence, such as Bde/Bn Cdr or CSM.

Anyway, BW 174, Age 38, 37:50 as RX'd. This WOD was absolutely miserable....and great, all for the same reason. All sets of thrusters and pullups broken.

Thanks Coach!

No Way do 100 SDHPs equal a 1000 m row!!! I reckon WAY HARDER. I found all of this concentrating on similar muscles.The row would have called in the anerobic system more. Chair pull-ups and dropped the weight to 15 kg after first set 26.50.

My fifth day attempting CrossFit exercises, and my first attempt at a workout of the day... I'm still working on getting proper form, so I move pretty slow through the exercises so I don't get sloppy or lazy. I feel really great knowing I have lots of room to improve :-)

I don't have a rower where I worked out today, so I cheated and just did the thrusters and pull ups.

3 rds of 50 rep thrusters with 45 lbs.
3 rds of 30 pull ups (a mix of kipping and dead hang)

time = ewww... about 45 min...

I tried Chelsea the other day and almost died after 11 rds in 30 min... and I was supposed to do 30 rds in 30 min?! I love this stuff :-)

Row on a weight-driven machine (only one available an yet another Air Force base--DM),100 reps per round w/25 lbs, pullups on a Positron w/100 offset. Only thrusters as Rx, and even then broken into sets of 10/15. Talk about room to improve!

Bike v. row.
Bad math, only did 1/5 of mile per rd on bike.
Still struggled badly to finish WOD.

38:37

34:11, but substituted 800m runs for the 1000m rows. Weather was nice and wanted to run instead, plus we only have one rower and wanted to do this together. Glad I did! Rowing as rx'd would have definitely made this harder than it already was with the run substitute.

Kelley did this with me. She did 6-7 pullups unassisted each round, then went to the banded pullups to finish off. Also used 35# barbell vice 45#. Her time: 35:09.

I messed around all day doing stupid stuff, like rearranging my spice cabinet, postponing the WOD until I told myself to get the 'blank' out there. Both N and L looked at the WO and suddenly found other things to do.

I had to sub stuff as to no rower and I changed the rounds up a bit-

Run on elliptical .5 mile in 6:30
10 rounds for time:
SDHP 45 lb, 15 reps
thrusters 25 lb, 15 reps
jumping/ negative pullups, 9 reps
Time- 33:36
Run on elliptical .5 mile in 8:30

In retrospect, I could have gone heavier on the thrusters. I also found out that I have been converting my milage all wrong from conventional to metric. That was a groaner moment!

TRIP COMMENT #80

I think you are calling me out.

Let's now be clear. I have been in Special Forces for over 20 years, most if it in Okinawa in C/1/1 and A/1/1 and recently retired in Washington State. I did not want to beat my chest though so I said "a very cool unit in the Army". I now live outside Bangor Sub Base, which has the most lame rules for their gym. I was lamenting that the SEAL's have a kick ass gym in Coronado. The reason I said that is because they are Navy and so is this Sub Base and there is a huge difference between the "Small Arms Repair" gym in Coronado and the "No risk gym" at Bangor. I put up a flyer at the gym at Bangor saying "free Jiu Jitsu just show up at 06:00 M-F" The gym made me take the flyers down and they do not allow grappling at their gym. That's the story trip.

By the way, I cannot wait to do the WOD this evening hen I get off work, it looks like a real smoker.

150 25# right arm Thrusters

Valerie S-
There are 2 possible causes to my hip pain when I run, one is that one leg is slightly longer than the other (perhaps someone has been telling me lies?) and therefore I am unbalanced (we already knew that) or I am weaker on the side with the pain and therefore my body is unbalanced.
The second reason makes perfect sense to me, since a year ago, on January 4th, I fell and dislocated my kneecap (it literaly was wedged up on my femur a bit) and tore a bunch of stuff. I dodged surgery believing that I could do physical therapy to help the problem. I started CrossFit about 6 weeks after my injury. It was a long recovery period and I had to baby my knee through some exercises.
A couple of months ago I noticed that my kneecap has slid back into place and my knee doesn't swell up so much any more or ache as much. I obviously was compensating for the injury and so now I have made one side of my body weaker than the other. It looks like I'll need to do some one legged squats. ;)

Kate

Tough one today; subbed dips for pullups b/c of a torn muscle in left arm.

Wow... This was my second WOD...
I have never worked out so hard in my life.

Did WOD as RX'd except modified Pull Ups.

30 Assisted Pull-ups "I could do 5 Pull ups each then I switched to jumping pull ups"

58 Minutes and 7 Seconds... With a time this bad I have a lot of room for improvement :)

Santa brought "Iron Woodie" elastic bands for xmas and used them for 2nd and 3rd set of pullups. They are a poor mans gravitron and work well.

Tried to go hard, but had nothing in my tank. Probably has something to do w/my intake of large amounts of fine winter Ale's, lack of sleep, unfavorable Zone meals, & typical mischief.

There are a lot of good scores being posted today. That is awesome! Especially those posting sub :25's.

Happy hour starts in one hour... Arrrgghhhhh!!!!

There are several... quid pro quos on today's WOD for me.

1)I got maybe 2 hours sleep on the medieval torture device erroneously called a hospital cot last night. My wife had surgery yesterday, and I was there till 3:30 this afternoon. Rest was impossible.
2)No CII available, so used my Weslo Aerobic Glide rower. Not sure what 100 meters equates to, so did 500 reps the first round, then figured maybe 250 is closer. (BTW _ anyone have a good rep count for 1000 meter row, for say, a 47 YO, 6’1”, 175 # male?)
3)Used 30 # barbell vice 45#. Should have just used the correct weight

I completed 2 rounds in 38 minutes… and could tell from the onset my butt was dragging. I then did an 800 meter carry of 25# plates in each hand and 100 meter carry of heavy bag on my shoulder just to try and not feel like a complete slug…

whoops forgot to mention of course i did it three times- fromt he post above. happy new year all

Kate,

Did your Doc give you specific exercises to strengthen your leg? Do you feel encouraged? I had a lot of hip pain when I first started running and I felt so discouraged, i didn't think I would be able to run at all. When I first started crossfit, I did only the strengthening exercises, and rode a bike and swam for the cardio. After about 2 months, I gradually started running. I did have to quit playing golf :( as that really aggravated my hip!
Anyway, if these old bones can get better, I'm sure your young ones will. Good luck to you and your hip!

Holy shit that was brutal. Subbed 45# SDLHPsx100 for the rowing. After reading comments above, I don't feel too bad. I'm afraid to try stairs.

Subbed 800 meter run for rowing
Used 20# dumbells for thrusters

3 rounds, 40# bar, asst pull ups
time= 32.21

I am with you Kate and Valerie S. Recovering from some hip pain(in my hip flexors/iliopsoas). Played soccer and then tore it, more pain. It was ok for awhile and then I was limping all over. Too hard headed to stop running so must have looked like a monkey running. I get some A.R.T. done (active release) at the chiro's, do some stretches, and proprioception exercises. The good news is- they are feeling better and I am back to running normally.

Randy #182 - Mommy would have been the nicest thing I said...

54:30 Subbed in 100 SDHP for rowing.
All sets broken - as am I. But a fantastic WOD indeed.
Thanks Karl for your answer to my earlier question on where the above photo was taken.
I genuflect in the general direction of those who did this "as Rx'd" (...and now I can't get up!)
Regards,

Question about the row. Is there an alternate for the exercise? I have read somwhere on the site that there was a list of alternates, I am unable to complete these due to being out to sea and not having a row machine. Any help would be great.

real tough 38:00 as rx'd

really happy on form - copied the guy next to me(he looked like a pro) on the second row... and did the same pace as the first 1000m ,with 10 less revs, on the next two

pullups were alot of different styles, whatever got my head over the bar

then when my body was recovered (about 10-15 minutes) i did my intervals

goal: run 3k, in 1k intervals, at 5min pace, with 3min break in between

this turned out to be a little on the easy side (since i wasn't DOA (Devastated On Arrival)).. i keep surprising myself
second break was 2min, because i found out the rest was too long
next time will do it at 4:30 pace with 2 min break.. that will make me push it

38:13

subbed run for row.

24:32,

Beat my 45 min target. This was one of those WODs where you trick yourself. "Come on, candy-a$$, just do one round." "Jeez, that sucked. Well, maybe 2 rounds." "Yikes. Aw, hell...no point in quitting now." LOL...the games ya play with your own head...

sub'd .6 mi run for row
thrusters and PU broken
37:37
This one smoked my A@# tonight. Definately a bad idea to go an hour after dinner but the truck was leaving and I had to stay with my truck.

All,

Nice to hear from the other "Blue suiters", too. I continually get the same questions...."what are you training for". I'd really like to say, "So I don't look like YOU!". But, then I'd blow my chance to talk re:Xfit. We have a great gym here.
If anyone comes to town, please give me a holler.

wish I'd read a little further down on the sub's for rowing, from the looks of the post the sdhp's sound like a pretty gnarly sub... next time

OK folks, Lance, our "coach" out of town for the week, that has left the rest of us first coast crossfit nuts having fun. Ran the steps of the Bank Of America building yesterdays, 44 stories, tallest building in our small and humble city, but fun !

OK today: 32 min, as Rx'd with lots of breaks with the pull ups & thrusters, loved the rows

My wife, 22:14, at the age of 50, used gravatron at 40lbs, but full rows, and thrusters at 20 lbs.

Missed Allen, prob. he is still running up and down the Bank of America.

#9 Billy ---- OR, you could simply drive the 3 or 4 miles from Corodado across the Coronado Bridge into beautiful downtown San Diego and come work out with us at CrossFit San Diego -- don't have to ask for equipment as we have it all AND, there are plenty of like-minded military folks who work out with us, even though they have facilities similar to yours at work.
check out www.crossfitsandiego.com

That's good stuff Lynne!! I totally relate. I have finished every WOD since I started this madness, but there are always those times (usually at the start) where I think, there is no way I can do this!! Today I lost count on my thrusters in the first round, so I kind of winged it. However, my husband was on the bike (still recuping from a femur injury) and as I was walking over to do my pull-ups I looked at him, shaking my head, and he held up four fingers, then four fingers again, and I knew I was six short, went back and did six more and held up one finger for him!!

43:44

Three rounds for time of:
Row 1000 meters
20 pound Dumbbell thruster, 50 reps
30 Push-ups

My rowing machine does give me a distanced rowed only time, cadance, count and calories. Any idea on how to figure out how far a 1000 meters is on my rowing machine?

As RX'd though knocked the last set down to 35 thrusters. Absolute Hell on that one...

36 min

Sorry, that's doesn't give me a distance

Valerie S. & In8girl-
Thanks to both of you for your advice. The doctor just gave me the typical print out of stretches to do and told me not to run if it hurts. I am doing a lot of stretching and when ever we have the running WO's I try running a bit and walking a bit and then just moniter the pain and not push into the pain to much, but still maintain the running as best as I can. I was never a runner any ways, so it is a new expierience remembering to belly breath as I run.

> Question - Is that all?

> Answer - If you are planning on making CF your primary exercise program you will be happy that you left something in the tank for tomorrow, especially if you are new.

AMEN. Those of you who work out *extra* hard on a relatively light WOD day are crazy! Coach has it all planned out...

54:53 subbed SDHPx100. Oh, to have a rower.

This one should be named "Crap. Not again."

1 round in 7:22 with 50 SDHP as sub for row

No time, energy and motivation

43:40
scaled pullups with -70 on Nautilus WACUP (Weight Assisted Chin-up/Dip). Used 20# dynamax to verify squat depth on the thrusters, which for a 6'4" guy is well below parallel.

I'm burnt now.

Valerie S. great story, had me laughing. I love that you held your finger up to the hubby. that's awesome! ;-)

Hale, i agree definitely wise advice. gotta enjoy those 'light' days every once in awhile!

Three rounds for time of:
Row 1000 meters
45 pound Thruster, 50 reps (broken into sets of 10; within each set of 10 some pauses for breath)
30 Pull-ups (broken into sets of 10, except last set in third round was broken 6-4)

Time: 38 minutes. Felt like crap due to lack of sleep, but to be honest don't think that made too much difference, as I find thrusters brutal since I started doing "squat thrusters" as opposed to "power thrusters" I used to do.

My metabolic system hopes that this WOD does not come around again for a long time!

Mr C #164 and Craig #209

On the C2, rowing at at 27 to 28 stroke/minute, at approx 1:55/500m split, I take 10-11 strokes per 100m, which corresponds nicely to the 1 SDHP = 10 meters.

First time not finishing a WOD. Never will take a week and a half off again. SDLHP instead of rower. 1 round 16:24.

re: #195 (Lynne)- I totally agree with you about the mind games and tricks! I played a whole bunch (6 sets of half as much?? two rounds instead of 3? 2 rounds plus an extra row? 1000m rows but only half the thrusters & pullups???) and ended up completing all three rounds with 1000m rows, 50 thrusters and 30 pullups per round in 46 minutes. Subbed 12kg thrusters (not used to doing them with a bar yet) and jumping pullups, with quite a few breaks for my breath to return to my lungs during the thrusters & pullups.. Times on the rows got faster from first to last though..

this was a fun one. My big reward: taking my 80-yo mother to the Sharks game.

My first full CrossFit workout and boy did I feel like a little girl. Had to sneak into a 24Hour to find a rower and THEY didnt have one! so I used a seated row machine with about 65# for 5 minutes trying to imitate the movement as close as I could. Had to use a band to help with the pullups my last round. I dunno if I did well but it sure felt great!
