WOD demo - video [wmv] [mov]
Posted by lauren at March 17, 2008 2:21 PM
2 days behind, but can't wait to charge this one again.
oh man... this will be fun!
Go Eva T. Awesome, inspiring video!
Oh man, I could actually do this one...
I want to be Eva T. when I grow up.
28/m/200#
did this one 2 days ago
9 rounds + 2 muscle-ups
Man... even Eva was complaining that it was hard...
Oh well, 3,2,1, Go!
Woohoo! First time I get to use my new 2 Pood!
Those are nice pics. I think we need to stop looking for the legendary Amazons - we found them.
Nice job Eva...
Great video/editing!
Love those WOD video's of the WOD...Keep um coming!
Thanks.
Need to get a 2 pood. Still going to be a good time.
Woah, Tony you've reached a new realm in videos. That was super-trippy with the 3 Evas.
Let us call them, Threevas...
I cannot do a handstand push-up. Is there an alternate exercise I could do for that one?
Thanks.
Totally awesome, Eva!
Tony, I love the three panel effect. Too cool.
Oh. My. Eva. Good lord, i dont know what i enjoy more- my own results from crossfit, or getting to watch the mutants it produces. Eva, you look awesome, in the most literal sense of the word. Great work.
good day all.
This is pretty quick for this WOD. I'm excited to do it again. My hand ripped pretty nicely during "Nicole" so hopefully it's ok during the swings.
By the way, nice video Tony.
Really enjoyed the WOD vid for this, both production and performance. Nice job all around.
loved the video. god eva is awesome, so strong and beautiful! tony, nice video, the 3 eva's were cool.
looking forward to this WOD.
#18
Stop whining about your ripped hands. Suck it up and stop being a woos. By the way, I love you!!!
Eva you are a beast! This is my favorite hero workout by far and I will give it my all in memory of Nate.
super cool video and a super cool chick = a happy sevan
Wow - good stuff! Way to go, Eva! The best part of the video was when all three Evas were hard at work side-by-side - very cool!
still no 2pood and the dumbbell swings torque my ulna too much so back to single arm 1poods
jumping muscle ups
going to try for unsupported hspu, I am getting more comfortable upside down
Inspiring video as always, Eva! Awesome job on the layering Tony. That was really cool.
Outstanding video Tony, outstanding WOD Eva. Don't you have a 2 pood swing in "Eva" as well. Looking forward to doing this one again.
Nice work! Any "Butt Arms" from all them HSPU?
Love,
K&A
Killer work, Eva. As I keep saying- Damn!
Craig
Anyone know who's doing the cover of the Smithereens at the start of the video?
Great video! Very inspiring!
Great music for the video. Eva, if you picked the music for your video, I commend you. You are a woman of taste and refinement. What's the title and the artist on the first song?
Great effort, too.
The only thing cooler than Eva T. is three Eva T.'s
first time for me on this workout. Sub'ed 70 lbs dumbell for the 2 pood KB, 6 PU/6 Dips for the 2 Muscle-ups.
11 rounds + PU/Dips
Tony dude,
The v-o is all getting a bit San Fernando Valley made!
I have an inkling that Eva knows what she is doing.
Quiet tip keep the 'beautiful, awesome, yeah, go girl etc' to yourself!
The moving pics alone and the music tell a great story - alone!
However in the spirit of American sports commentary just say what is on your mind and whatever you deem pertinent.
God luv ya!
Eva, that was a great performance. You swinging the 2 pood kicks ass! I loved the vid. Nice that the pic of Nate was put in at the end.
Last time this came up I said that I was looking forward to doing it when I was 100% healthy. I think 15 rounds is a good goal. 5 rounds in just under 7 minutes three times. Who is with me?!
argh, my hands are pretty torn up from the pullups yesterday. i wonder if i can do muscle-ups with gloves on
ken c., bingo, jason ackerman, brett, bleedcf, rajun cajun, steve liberati, appoloswobble, tatoo nicky OR ANYONE ELSE...
What is the name of the WOD where you clean body weight and then transverse 1 mile within 15 minutes with said bodyweight? And what are the details and "rules" of the WOD?
Thanks for your help in advance!
Holy Crap! Eva, you are awesome!
Subbed (4:1) jumping pullups and jumping ring dips
HSPU against wall but only about 1/4 depth
Swings with 15# dumbbell
15 rounds
J-Rock, it's the Inman Mile. It'll tucker ya out
37/m/246
subed 4 dips/4 jumping Pullups
11 rounds plus 4dips 4 pullups 4 hspu
13 rounds + 2 MUs and 3 HSPUs.
Ring MUs full elbow extension to full elbow extension; no "jump off" reps. Singles most of the WOD for pacing. Hard after 72# swings!
HSPUs done off 2" blocks, top of head to floor, no kip and no breaks.
72# kb overhead swings. No breaks.
Lots of time spent breathing between exercises.
Subbed: 3 Pull-ups/3 Dips; 55 lb presses; 35 lb dumbbell. 8 rounds. Today was my first day doing crossfit. I have been lifting weights consistently for over a year now and would consider myself in pretty decent shape. I know I didn't even come close to the prescribed workout, but it kicked my butt!! I'm excited about this new level of training!
Thanks Eric.
I think I know the details, but can you or someone else give me the rules on it. I have been training up to it, so now that I am closing in, I want to do it as rx'd.
Thanks!
49m/5'10"/225
Shoulder impingement problem
subbed 8 pull ups and 8 pushups (dips hurt too much) for MU and 4 shoulder presses for hspu
9 rounds + 1 additional set of swings.
27/6'6"/88 kg
8 rounds + 2 MU (as Rx'd)
43/M/75"/200
3x3x3x3x3 Deadlift@235
3x3x3x3x3 Front Squat@135
Does not include practice/warm up reps
Can go heavier on the deadlift next time. Squat weight was easy, but still need some more flexibility in my wrists so I kept that weight light.
Pull ups afterward (the other guys did weighted pull ups, I did body weight dead hang 3x3x3x3x3).
33/M/193
2 Bar muscle up the first 3 rounds
1 bar muscle up 3 pull-ups/3 dips 3 rounds
6 pull-ups/6 dips 4 rounds
HSPU & KBS as RX'd
10 rounds total
M/40/5'11"/185
8 rounds + 6 dips, 6 pull-ups, 4 HSPU, and 5 KB swings
sub:
-6 dips (1st 3.5 rds: ring dips, then supported ring dips--heels on barrel)
-6 barrel pull-ups
-4 modified HSPU, toes on log
-8 KB swings, 60#DB
F/37/5'6"/140
10 rounds + 6 pull-ups
sub:
-8 jump pull-ups
-8 modified ring dips, heels on barrel
-4 modified HSPU, toes on log
-8 KB swings, 25#
First time on this one:
Jumped on the MUs
Supported HSPUs, form was weak
Sub 2-30# DBs for 2-pood
15 rounds + MUs and HSPUs
Remembered the WOD wrong and subbed a couple things anyway. Did 11 1/2 rounds of:
2 Jumping Muscle-ups
4 behind the neck presses (65#)
6 concrete cylinder swings
Felt good but realized that I was not pushing myself enough. I was keeping a good pace and the presses were tough towards the end. Overall though, I am looking forward to the rest day tomorrow.
JFG
47/m/180
9 reps
MUs were jump assisted (rings were overhead)
Swings were with 72# dbs
had time for another round of mu's - next I go until the alarm
jrock
don't know the details on the inman mile but i think dale seran spoke of it on the board a long time ago. might try him.
freddy c
you're right 15 rounds would be pretty darn good. it's a big shoulder blaster. good luck.
subbed w:
3 pull/3 dips
push ups with legs elevated ca. 4 ft.
dumbell swings (50 lbs for rd 1, 40 lbs for remaining 5)
6 rounds total.
Inman Mile
From the U.S. All-Round Weightlifting Association, USAWA: “The lifter will have loaded onto his/her shoulders a weight equal to 150% of bodyweight. The lifter will then carry the weight a distance of one mile. Gait is optional. Resting is allowed, but neither the lifter nor the weight may be supported. Records will be kept in both pounds and time. Should the weight be touched by any aide once the lift has begun, the event is terminated. The lifter may be handed refreshments during the lift.”
The Inman Mile consists of putting a barbel across your back that weighs 1 and a half times your body weight and walking one mile.
If you cant achieve this which not many people can you should carry a weight you feel able to complete the mile with.
The problems with this WOD for most people who use non xfit gyms is getting them to let you take there barbel and weights for a walk and then not getting arrested on the high street!!!
37/m/175
sub: 12 KB swings of 1 1/2 pood
12 rounds + 2MU + 1HSPU
30/M/190
no muscleups so I did the equivilent with dips and ring pu's
7 rounds plus the equivilent of 2 mu's
hoping for ten rounds - maybe next time.
John
7 rounds
subbed 4PUs/4dips for MUs
HSPU with feet hooked high.
45# dbell swing x 12
35/m/70/170 indoors, 5003 feet
WOD "Nate" Subbed 6x L-sit pullups and deep dips for muscleups, subbed smith machine HSPUs, 70lb db swings. 8 rounds flat.
Eva T. is remarkable to say the least.
M/41/6'1.5"/172
"Nate" with substitutions:
--sub'd 4 bar dips + 4 kpping pullups for each muscle up;
--sub'd 70-lb dumbbell for 2 pood kettlebell
And, my HSPU don't quite have full ROM.
8 rounds
In the delerious state of mind that usually comes on 20 minutes into the workout, I misread my watch and went over a couple of minutes and did extra dips, pullups, and HSPU.
Gotta get a stopwatch!
8 Rounds, but with HPU I couldn't continue with 4 reps continuously.
25/5'9"/132
7 rounds + 2 mu + 2 hspu
HSPU were to a 2.25" book, MU from standing at full extension (still working on hanging at full extension), KB swings with 55 lbs of plate on a metal rod. 2 rounds less than last time, but better hspu.
Doesn't the military cap the mile at 15 min. max? Or is it just standard for sub. 15?
I know that it does not have to be a barbell. I know that it can be a sand bag or whathave you. Just something equivalent to 1 1/2 times bw.
Has anyone on here done this? I would love to hear experiences, and here how to continue my training for it. I am a trainer, CSCC, and have been an athlete all my life, and a die hard CFer for a year. Love to hear some experiences though.
Thanks for the help.
bw 170
subbed 3/3 for each muscle up
hspu assisted
10 rounds
+ 22 lb weight vest
Outstanding cert this past weekend at CF Charlotte. Coach, trainers and the CF Charlotte staff did an amazing job as well as all attendees.
If you haven't been to one yet get to a cert. I don't believe you'll regret it.
My great thanks to all for the great weekend.

AW - (Subs = 8 asst. PU, 8 Box dips, 8 decline push-ups, 16x8KG KB swings each arm)
5 rounds + 6th through push-ups
ML - (Subs = 4 ring pull-ups/ 4 ring dips, 1.5 Pood KB swing)
6 rounds even - HSPUs killed my time
As Rx'd: 11 Rounds + 2MU + 2HSPU (PR)
Last time was 12 rounds with 1.5 pood and last 4 rounds with knees on box for HSPUs.
Wow, this was my first time with the 2 pood. It winded me so much more than the 1.5 did last time! The HSPU's were down to doubles in the second round and singles thereafter. I would probably squeeze in 4-5 more rounds if my HSPUs weren't so broken!
This still blows my mind that Muscle Ups are the easy part of a workout!
One of my favorite WODs. Go out there and get some everyone!!
Hey J-Rock,
yesterday I carried a 60# d-ball 1 mile up the steepest hill in the Bay Area (Marin, in Berkeley) and then 1 mile straight down. I switched the Ball from shoulder to shoulder.
I focus on form, keeping my knees happy with strong legs, keeping my back happy with a strong stomach. I also try and relax any muscles that are tense that are NOT needed. My shoulders want to tense up and flex... BUT I don't allow this unnecessary energy expenditure to occur.
NEVER put the weight down. At the top of the hill! I set the d-ball down cause I was crazy fatigued. I rested for 10 minutes. BUT if I would have put the ball down going up or going down... it would have been devastating. Once you set the weight down, it seems impossible to pick up again. You loose all the tension in the body and turn into gumby. I did not time myself but the person accompanying me said I was 15 up and 11 down.
The ball was about $200 including shipping from d-ball (check link on CF main page) Hope this helps :)
BTW- doing d-ball smashes with a 60# ball is FUN.
7 rounds
subbed ring pull-ups and ring dips for the muscle ups. I started with supping 3 of each for 1 muscle up, but couldn't keep that pace. By the end I was doing 1 for 1 negatives. I also did the first set of handstand pushups but then subbed 65lb overhead presses. The heaviest kettlebell they have here is 24Kg. Still kicked my butt!
Eva, you are amazing!
I miss you!
Tony nice video.
F/26/115
Scaled to 44lb KB and 4pull+4ring dips/MU:
8 rounds at the buzzer.
This WOD sucked for me today. My hands are really sore from yesterday so gripping the bar was agony. I tried to wear gloves for the middle of the workout, but it killed my grip strength so I threw them against the wall and dealt with the pain. Frustrating 'cause it slowed me down a bit. I liked this WOD though! Yay!
Subed 70lb dumbell
14 comlete rounds
Yeah, Eva! That was an awesome effort.
9 rounds + 2 mu, Rx'd

I am three weeks into healing from a back injury and looking to getting back active.
Last week, I started doing intervals on the bike and supersetting the interval with air squats and lunges and feel fine. Also started doing some band work to get the muscles moving again.
Any ideas on other exercises I could begin doing? that won't strees the back too much?

Comment #99 - Posted by: TempleOwl M/74'/185/19
FWIW - I wouldn't hesitate to sub rowing for any running element of a WOD. It makes for a different workout, but different isn't bad, just another element in the randomization within crossfit.
The only drawback I could see is it makes comparisons over time more difficult - but, if you use the rower every time you do Nicole, that won't be an issue.

Nate as RX'd
15 rounds + 2MU's, 4 HSPU's and 6 KB Swings, so close to an even 16 rounder. Next time, if I can ever feel my arms again.
On the bright side, today is St. Patty's Day. And more importantly, tomorrow St. Patty's Recovery Day coincides with a rest day. It's as if coach planned it.

You may be talking about the Rutman mile. It is with a bodyweight sandbag. If you check his blog the "Fitness Conduit" it is the post from yesterday.

This is the one that I did right before I blew my shoulder out a month ago, so I approached it with much scaling and trepidation.
5 pullups, 10 pushups, 10 35# swings, 11 minutes. 6 rounds. I capped it at 11 minutes because the shoulder started acting up around there.
Eva is my hero...
Subbed 3 Bar Muscle Up's for 2 Muscle Up's
16 rounds
Everything is close together in my gym so my rounds were more efficient than my last nate (12 ROUNDS) Plus for me, the bar muscleups are easier. I always jump the first one to start my momentum, so I did 3 counts.

Had the wonderful opportunity of spending my Sunday at SFCF with Brian and Melissa MacKenzie at a Pose running seminar. Thanks guys it was awesome.
At lunch the coaches and I did "Nicole" very fitting I got to work on my running within the WOD. It's amazing how you forget all you learned when you are tired.

Completed 9 rounds +6PU & 6Dips
The Eva video helped me with the 2 pood KB swings...popping the hips through definately changes the movement and the pace.
Great Workout!
Thanks Coach!
13 rds as rx'd. Thanks to CF VB for the workout.
Cheers Barney, and everyone else, for your help. It is infact the Rutman mile that I saught after.
Just did 1000m with 165lbs (barbell plus weights) on my shoulders. Did not set it down, and only stopped once for a moment, and decided better of it and just wanted to finish. Holy flippin traps! Wow! Felt like Lou Farrigno when I set (dropped) the weight (into the grass cause I am sans bumper plates) down. Good stuff! This is going to be added into my day cycle of 3 on 1 off for the next month. I would like to be able to complete The Rutman Mile within a month. 33 m 191 6'1".
Should be fun. Always is, even when it's not. LOL!
J
8 rounds plus 2 MU's.
Subbed jumping MU's and 45lb KB swings.
I dont have the coordination to do MU so instead I did 8 PU and 8 dips to make up for it other wise as Rx'd for 9 rounds almost saw pukie after 7 but kept it down pretty nicely.
I had the privelege of attending the Level 1 Cert in Charlotte this weekend. I want to thank Coach A. and his wife Deena for their awesome hospitality and very encouraging attitudes as our host at CrossFit Charlotte. If you are in the Charlotte area and not using that resource you are really missing out.
To Coach Glassman and the entire training crew, you guys are incredible at what you do. Thank you to especially Dave C., Pat, Mike G., Dan Mc, Jenni, Justin, Ben and the others,for your teaching, examples, and commitment to helping avg. guys like me learn to pursue a higher level of fitness and performance. To obtain hands on instruction from the best fitness minds in the world was phenomenal. If you are new to Crossfit, you cannot appreciate the quality, character, and level of fitness these trainers bring to these courses until you attend. To spend a weekend with these folks was priceless, not to mention the quality of the other attendees. From elite military, fire fighters, law enforcement, I can honestly say I was in the company of our true American heros this weekend. As a crosffitter outside of these arenas, I am truly humbled by your character, commitments, and sacrifice for our country, here and abroad. To meet men and women like our fallen hero today, CPO Nate, was truly an honor. I have been following CF for almost a year, and realize that this is not just a fitness protocol, its a community of believers in a way of life. My only reget is that I was not introduced to this earlier in life. To the family of CPO Nate Hardy, may God give you comfort and ease your pain, your loss is Americas!!
5 rounds. My first WOD involving muscle-ups as RX'd. Yet another milestone, courtesy of Crossfit.
Eva... wow. Unbelievable performance.
8 rounds + 6 pullups
substituted 6 pullups & dips for muscle ups
M:31:6'3":285lbs
Nate: 11rounds with 4 pull ups
6 pullups & 6 dips = 2 muscleups
32.5kg dumbell = 2pood kettlebell
Good workout, did a 5K after in 35'59"! My running needs a lot of work?
Subbed 2 ring dips w/ hold at top and 6 pull ups for 2 muscle ups
HSPU to 3 or 4" cushion

Hey Tony - Nice Video!!!
This is off topic, but in the current and upcoming crossfit journal you are currently doing a tutorial on video making....but what platform are you using to edit the video's??
Apple Mac/Final Cut Express 4
PC/Adobe Premiere Elements
I will stay tuned for the next installment of the CFJ, but I am just curious on the equipment/tools/software you are using.
TD
I started off with some active stretches and then I practiced snatches for a bit at 45 lbs and 65lbs to work on form.
For the WOD I substituted 2 pull-ups and 2 dips for the 2 muscle-ups. I know this should be more, but I was also scaling it with this substitution. I did elevated push-ups with my feet up on a bench and my hips in the air in place of the handstand push-ups. For the kettlebell swings I used a 70lb dumbbell.
I completed 9 rounds in 19:38.
I finished up with 3 sets of 10 reps of knees to elbows and some static stretching.
Subbed 60lb Db and 3/1 for MU
9 rds
24/m/195
7 rounds + 1 MU as rx'd...MU's major limiting factor for me.
Awesomely inspiring video and WOD. Eva T, what a woman! WOW!
2 questions: 1) Is there a video where Eva T teaches her version of kipping HSPU's? Robbie referred to her teaching it to him a few weeks ago in one of the WOD videos.
2) What's the best way to search for videos on here? If you type in a subject on the search feature on the message board, you often get all kinds of hits that are people's posts, not videos.
THANKS! I hope to give Nate my best shot later today. Gotta get work done first!

Shuffled swings and HSPU in last round as I would have wasted most of my last minute staring at the floor. Got a little ambitious in the beginning and started doing HSPU on 25lb bumpers. That lasted 2 rounds ...
Tough!

BW:179
For my warmup, I played around with my substitutes for the prescribed exercises to see how I should go about the workout (having never done it before). It ended up being a decent workout in itself, lasting 20 minutes. I decided I would do 3 pullups (using a T-bar hooked over the regular pullup to mimic the start of a muscle-up) and 3 dips per muscle up, self-assisted handstand pushups with my feet hooked on a squat bar for handstand pushups (which I can barely do at all), and 60lb dumbbell swings (in lieu of a kettlebell). So...
6 T-bar pullups
6 dips
4 self-assisted handstand pushups
8 60-lb dumbbell swings
I managed 7 rounds.
Male 46years 6'4"/238lbs...8 complete rounds

ROUNDS AS RX'D: 14 + 2 MUSCLE-UPS

I USED TO GO FACE DOWN ON DRIVEWAY IN A DROOL PUDDLE AFTER WODS. NOW I GO JUST FACE DOWN.

Train: "Nate" - 8 rounds as Rx'd (75# DB).
A great way to start back up after 9 days of rest. Felt stronger but seemed to get winded quicker. Finally worked through my muscleup problem and all swings unbroken (much better than last time).
Complete as many rounds in twenty minutes as you can of:
8 Pullups/Dips
4 Handstand Push-ups
8 70 lb DB swings
9 rounds + 8 pullups/dips
1 round better than last time. The exercises themselves felt easier this time around since I'm getting used to 70 lb DB swings, but this workout exhausts me quickly. I moved really slow between exercises those last 2 or 3 rounds.
Happy St. Patrick's Day to all! I'm looking forward to getting drunk off of Guinness, and half and half's later!
Eva you are the best. I don't think I can do one of any of those!
Classy workout, classy lady, classy music, classy production....nice job all. Now I just need to be able to do more than one MU a month. Now for some green milk.

Couldnt pass on Nate though (and its kettlebell-ish) As Rx'd got 10 rounds 2 MU's and 3 HSPU's before time ran out. 1.5 rounds better than last month. Not too bad. The KB work I have been doing really cleaned up the form on the swings with the 70# er and made em the easiest part of the workout by far. Great job by everyone today!

Level I cert in Rainier this weekend!
What a way to kick off the week following this weekend's certification!
Sigh...I was doing so well, up until I got this killer death virus. Since Saturday I've been able to keep down an Orange. I look at food and I dry heave...but mark my words, once I'm not so weak as to drop kettlebells on my forehead I'll be back at it.
Lost 8lbs in 4 days...But I'm gaining a ton of definition in my ribs and skeleton body.

Did the pilgrimmage to Muscat globo gym, ripped for 1st time in crossfit (trivial, blood blisters from yesterday's square bar), 75# DB sucks. Bar dips & more kippable bar make a big diff... an extra 4 rounds.
I've been training for over twenty years and I'm 3 weeks new to CF. I don't have the flexibility to do the snatch and OH squats. Any recommendations? Thanks.

No rings - freaked everyone out with the muscle ups on the power rack - angled pull up handles.
For some reason 4 HSPU were harder than usual

29/M/180
50% cycle. Therefore:
20 min. AMRAP 1 MU, 2 HSPU, 4 70# db swing: 20 rounds
42yo/184#
All muscle-ups with palms turned out in bottom. All HSPU on parallettes ear depth
14 rds + 1 muscle-up
I was trying for 5 rds at just under seven minutes three times. Worked out like this:
1-5 @ 14:55
6-10 @ 6:28
The KB's were taxing, but the real killer was the HSPU on the parallettes. I had to break the last four rounds up in 2's. I'll get it next time!
25/M/190
13 rounds.
No rings so I used pull-ups and dips. Great work out, smoked my shoulders amongst other things.
I leave tomorrow for business in Pensacola, FL. Does anyone know if there is a Crossfit Aff. there? I haven't seen anything online.

Then did some FS after.

Fantastic workout. Nearly killed me...and got me a few strange stares.
Nice job Eva.
don't have rings for the muscle ups, nor am i able to do hspu's yet, so i decided to do an

Thanks for responding to my question Paul. It was different,but I liked it. Pull ups after rowing is interesting especially after I Nate this morning.

I can't kip at the school gym and it's maddening plus I had to wait on the first round for a large football player to do 20 pull ups from halfway down to his nose, no wonder why Temple football sucks. It looks like I am going to suck it up and take the train down to crossfit philly. I've been wanting to do it this whole semester but haven't found the time.

Made up Nicole today and will make up the snatches tomorrow. I'll have to wait until Wednesday for Nate. It's tough having to give up WODs on the weekends but I'm trying to make it work on the 5 on and 2 off schedule.

Sounds lame but I am really proud of this! I had a choice of using a Gravitron or just the bar. I took the bar. I'd link two kips then my hands would slip off that horrible bar. But for the first time, it was all me!
My friend used the machine with #50 of assist and her total was 91! No comment.
I was once told(by a guy a the gym) that if a woman could not do a pull up by the time she was 9 she'd never be able to do one.
My first pull up was 2 months before my 40th birthday.
I LOVE CROSSFIT!

Re: The Charlotte Cert
I attented the cert at Charlotte this past weekend and just wanted to give a big thankyou to Coach and all the trainers (Dave, Pat, Mike G, Jelli and all the others ). Also big thanks to the Charlotte guys for their hospitality and for letting me flip the BFT!
As for the cert itself, it was amazing fun and I feel even more enthusiastic about Crossfit than I did before. The training was top notch and it was great to meet Crossfitters from all over the USA (plus some Australians).

4 x Ring PUs and 4 x Ring Dips for 2 x MUs
50# DB swings for 2 pood KB swings
Marked improvement over last time.
I am SOOOO close to getting a MU. I had to use a tower and I didn't have the room to try jumping MUs.
The video of Eva doing this WOD has been the most helpful in understanding the false grip. I can see that the hand position is the same at the beginning of the MU as it is at the beginning of the dip and the path of travel of the hands through the transition. Great camera work, very helpful.

Screwed up today's WOD. I subbed 16KG KB swings and started workout as Rx'd. Completed 5 rounds and couldn't do any more MUs so switched to pullups/dips, but mistakenly did 3 pullups/3dips each round for the next 6 rounds until I realized I should have been doing 6 pullups/6dips and completed 1 more round + 6pullups/dips.
regardless, i did more work than last time. woot.

CFWU
Mobility Drills
Notes: HSPUs were reduced ROM (to 45 pound plate), only have 1.5 pood kettlebell so did 10 swings.
Score: 9 rounds + 2 MUs
Overall
I'm really cranky about this. I failed on way too many of the MUs which shouldn't have happened. I've been sick and not sleeping well, so I'm not recovering, but it's still frustrating. However, my HSPUs are getting better so I guess that's a positive.

M/35/183
12 rounds
One less than last time, but this time all MUs were clean, except for the very last one. I wasted so much time trying to get the last one w/o jumping that I could have probably done another set.
HSPU on paralletts, ear depth, first 5 rounds, then went back to regular head to floor. What a huge difference doing them on the paralletts made. They were SO much harder.
Freddy C. 14 rounds of HSPUs on the paralletts? WOW! You are a frickin stud.
70# d-bell swings. Any comments on whether dbell swings are easier or harder than the kbells? We don't have kbells and I was just wondering what the difference was, or if there is one.

I'm so bloody happy - four rounds more than last time. Had to set up in a public park in Oxnard, on a parcourse that actually HAD rings! Totally non-usable rings, that apparently are there for STRETCHING, so I tied my rings up to the bars, and tied those rings out of the way. Carried my kb across the field for a good warmup. Oh baby, this post workout Guinness tastes so good.

So i ran into this guy from my gym at a bar on friday, he says to me, you're the girl who does cleans! he said he hadn't done them since college and started doing them again after he saw me doing them. that led to talk about crossfit, and i told him to join me today for a workout. i also said if he didn't show up i had the right to call him a pussy everytime i saw him. needless to say he showed up and did a modified nate. when we were done he said 'i'm hooked, but are they all this hard?' gotta love that. we shall see if he returns.

HSPU's were the major limiting factor- First five or six rounds of HSPU's done on 3inch blocks... then with out. But all were done head to ground and most were kipping. The last time I did "Nate" I broke 18 rounds, but that was with putting my heels over the squat rack...

today as rx'd: PR!!!!!!!!!! 15 rounds on the money. freddy c-thanks for the challenge.
Ok, I just had to post today since I got my first muscle-up! It was surprising how easy it was. I think I've had enough strength for awhile, but just hadn't gotten the technique quite right. I did two muscle-ups during the warm-up and one in the first round of the workout. After that, I had to go back to pull-ups and push-ups.
7 rounds + 2 + 4 (inclined HSPUs)
'Nate' as rx'd but with 1.5 pood kettlebell (all i had)
14 rounds plus 2 muscle ups
All rounds unbroken. Muscle up technique made the difference. Last time couldn't hold the false grip and had to take breaks in between.

15 minutes on the bike afterward.
Snatch practice with 65, 95lbs - just a couple each.
#288 mas - Nice work, great improvement!
#284 jes - I find the dumbell harder to hang on to than a kettlebell because I just use the ends of my fingers to grab the plates on one end. It's similar to the feeling of hanging onto a ledge to do pullups.
worked out @ cf loudon with a bunch of great people I partnerd w/ sven frm brand x.
rafael 15 rnds,sub 3xpull ups/dips and 53lbs kb
Attempted puppies. Got 3 rounds in and was having right elbow pain-think I'm trying too hard on the pullups at work.

Since I don't have rings at my disposal, I'll do the sub, but which combo is correct- the 3/3 or 4/4? maybe it doesn't matter, but I want to do it as correctly as I can until I get a pair of rings...which leads to my next question-where can i get a decent pair, or can I make my own?(I made a whole set of med balls using my sons' old soccer/basketballs..)
on the road and nursing injury (which is on the mend). Did 10 rounds of 6 HSPUs and 8 swings.

Eva inspired me! go Eva go.
Subbed 2 for 1, jumping MU
8 rounds + MU + 2 HSPU, 20 mins, another 1.14 to finish up.
Can't do a MU with a knees bent start, but can't fully hang from rings in garage, ceiling too low. Should have set up the rings outside last night.
That Eva vid was as inspiring as usual. I love the contrast in Eva's powerful form and intensity, compared to her delightfully soft voice.
A grand workout, I would do this every day. Glad to have you with us today Nate. Paul

Eva is awesome and certainly puts me to shame, as do many CFers. But, we do what we can, right? Speaking of doing what one can, my abs are still killing me. I can't do one pullup without pain, much less muscleups. I'll just have to lay off for a while. I thought 2 weeks was enough, but apparently not.
Warmup: 5 min. exerbike + 1 rd. mod CFWU
WOD: sub'd 3 120# lat pulldowns and 3 ring dips for 1 muscleup, HSPUs feet assisted on Smith rack, and sub'd scaled 60# dumbbell swings for 2 pood KB swings. In other words, not as rx'd.

Had to hang rings from a cable crossover machine, so each muscle up was done at full extension, but in an L-pullup position. My butt was a couple of inches off of the ground. HSPU done nose to ground. Subbed a 75 lb. dumbell for KB. 16 rounds last time.

I think I could have done more on the swings, except the DB kept hitting the ground on the swings if I went anywhere above 24KG
In retrospect, I could have done 4 PU and 4 dips, I thought that was going to be the weak part of the chain and it proved to be the handstand press.

my hand is still torn up from "Nicole", so I taped the hell out of it and it felt pretty good, but i still have some healin' to do. hopefully tomorrow isn't too pullup-heavy because i'm basically reduced to fingertip pullups until my hands heal.

Thank you to Crossfit for this last year. After lifting for powerlifting, football, bodybuilding, martial arts, etc . . . I've never felt more in shape than I do now.

10 Rounds
Subbed 3 pullups and 3 jumping muscleups (bar at eye level, jump and push up until arms straight) per each muscleup. Used 70lb dumbbell instead of kettlebell. HSPU were done with help of smith machine.
Started playing around with kettlebell form. Wall squats. I will start using most of my warm-up and work-out time for form work. And then make some mini workout out of the WOD just to get some work in.
I am realizing more and more that although coach is smart, he is not god. and I and others around here worry too much of living up to "as Rx'd". Just get in a god-dam workout and it doesn't matter if you did 2 SDLHP's or rows or whatever. How does coach decide these workouts? Well, maybe there's more to it now, but back in the old days it sounded like it was a dartboard. Just do something man, it doesn't matter.

Loving Crossfit.
Representing Saint John, New Brunswick, Canada.
It's amazing coming from a bodybuilding style training to this format. Your body changes in ways I didn't expect.
And it's contagious...more and more approaching to try this "retarded" way of training.
Thankfully a local got certified and can now get this running officially.
I'm having a tough time finding room to run through the WOD with the groups who are following.
My gym can't accomodate them. :)
Train til you puke...wipe your face and keep going....lol
