Wow! My first FGB, glad I hooked up with that rower, Ill have to sub the wall ball with 45# thrusters. This looks like a sick workout.

Comment #24 - Posted by: cleverhandz at March 18, 2008 6:11 PM

Lets all smile with the fact that we know what crossfit is and everyone else just gets to stare at us, wondering if only they had blogged more...such as C. Reaves

Comment #25 - Posted by: Jefe at March 18, 2008 6:11 PM

I feel kinda slimey after having been to the NYT site.

Comment #26 - Posted by: EricM at March 18, 2008 6:26 PM

Does anyone have any music where it beeps at one minute intervals, like when someone posted for "tabata something else"? That would be really helpful for knowing when to switch.

Looking forward to this one tommorrow...

Awesome! Thank you.

This is my FAVORITE WOD in crossfit.

Get some.

Wow! Great job on that FGB Video, everybody. EC you rock, girl.

Comment #34 - Posted by: Keith W. at March 18, 2008 6:53 PM

Whoa. This workout is sick. I was at that Cert. and watching the Trainers do FGB was something else. After my pathetic sub 300 showing it was nuts watching pretty much all the trainers slam that score through the second round or so.

Too bad I'm going into a ME BB set up for a few weeks tomorrow coming off a nasty ankle injury. Gotta get this one done some other time...

Comment #35 - Posted by: Derek at March 18, 2008 6:55 PM

I am also stuck without a rower. Need some help on a good sub.

Comment #36 - Posted by: FREDDIEFIREMAN at March 18, 2008 6:56 PM

Stalter-You can try using jumping pullups, I've used that before, just count the reps.

Comment #37 - Posted by: ScottMacArthur at March 18, 2008 6:59 PM

My first FGB also... Shannon (comment #4), your post made me laugh out loud.

Comment #38 - Posted by: Bob G at March 18, 2008 7:01 PM

I did this Monday so I will post my score. I had done a 375 or so in the summer last year and had my aim set on 400. Well things were going well till I turned to go do my second round of wall balls and my ball rolled downhill 30 yrads away! I sprinted to it and ran back with it. So that cost me a few reps to say the least.

Score = 398!

Damn run away medicine ball!!


Comment #39 - Posted by: POS at March 18, 2008 7:04 PM

Yeah, EC! Rocking it, baby!

Best,

Jon

Comment #40 - Posted by: Jon Gilson at March 18, 2008 7:07 PM

Best WOD video to date. Combining information & rationale with demonstration is powerful stuff.

Thanks Tony, Pat & Coach G.

Comment #41 - Posted by: mike at March 18, 2008 7:10 PM

Wow! Hell of a video. Very inspiring. Next time I'll have to view it before the workout.

My score really sucked. 218

I'll up the intensity next time.

Comment #46 - Posted by: Send513 at March 18, 2008 7:43 PM

I can't believe she tried to blast CF and brought so little evidence to the table. I'm all for voicing your opinion, but she failed to make a point period. It went something like this:

"I think crossfit stinks because coach talks about good form and details and intensity and I'm not bright enough to grasp these concepts. By the way, read this on scientology."

Only one thing sums it up: wtf?!?

Just remember that you're not truly successful until you have critics!

You can find power-hour mixes on itunes, or programs that run through itunes and switch songs every minute for a certain period of time. Quite useful for beer drinking, and I suppose it has a place in tabata exercises. I use a program called ipowerhour, but there's a bunch of others (depending on your platform). Just google something like that.

Must reach 320...this will be fun at 7 in the morning.

Comment #50 - Posted by: gt_rugger15 at March 18, 2008 7:52 PM

Not really sure how I can set this up... in a gym full of people but hey, that makes it more interesting right?

I'm pumped!

Comment #51 - Posted by: Pooch - Roch, NY F/24/5'3/117 at March 18, 2008 7:52 PM

Great to see EC on the main page.

Comment #52 - Posted by: Tom Brose at March 18, 2008 7:55 PM

Is it really lame to use a 12lb ball for the wall ball? I think I can do all the other prescribed weights, even if I can't do very many, but what if I can't even get the 20lb ball up that high? I've never tried....

Comment #53 - Posted by: Jenna at March 18, 2008 8:01 PM

I think Virginia is comparing Coach and Crossfit to scientology. It's the only explanation possible for her putting that link to anti-Scientology website and its reference to KSW (Keep Scientology Working). Basiclaly, it means keep pushing scientology until the whole world is scientology. I think she views Crossfit and the Crossfit website as something like KSW.

Comment #54 - Posted by: jreed010 at March 18, 2008 8:01 PM

how amny rounds?

Comment #55 - Posted by: adam at March 18, 2008 8:03 PM

hey shout out to people for some help...Thrusters with a 4t5# bar to sub for the wall ball throw?

Comment #56 - Posted by: pelch at March 18, 2008 8:05 PM

Yeah EC! Way to represent Boston. You go girl. Awesome.

Comment #57 - Posted by: monica at March 18, 2008 8:07 PM

#57 Pelch

I'd up it to 55 lbs. That's a more accurate sub. A better one would be 2 20 lb. dumbbells.

I tried "Nate" today, with subs (can't do the muscle-ups):

AMRAP 20 min.
8 pull-ups
8 ring dips
4 handstand push-ups
8 kettlebell swings (2 pood)

5 rounds, 8 pull-ups, 7 ring dips

The ring dips were the killer - slowed me down a lot and made the hspu unusually difficult.

Comment #58 - Posted by: Andrew H. Meador at March 18, 2008 8:08 PM

I think jreed is correct. Although her thinking in general seems to be a bit muddled.
The point of her rant is she somehow thinks crossfit is a religion? And should be taken on faith?
I thought crossfit was empirical?
Why can't she stop thinking about crossfit? What got in her crawl?
Her rant about critiques of form being 'hateful' is odd. Did someone have a tough time in her ballet class as a kid?
She is passive aggressive about coach. Coach did you decline after she made a pass at you for her to have these kinds of feelings?

Comment #59 - Posted by: jakers at March 18, 2008 8:13 PM

For anybody looking for a sub for rowing other than SDHP, I always use burpees as a sub. Yes, I'm evil.

Comment #60 - Posted by: Cory Chi-town at March 18, 2008 8:18 PM

#57 pelch
Yeah, a 45lb thruster would be an acceptable sub but try and make it a point to really explode through it. The 2x20lb dumbell idea is nice, too. Either way is fine, just track it so you can compare next time.

Comment #61 - Posted by: Scott Andresen at March 18, 2008 8:22 PM

Great video...one of the best yet. Can't do this properly at the UW IMA but will try to come up with something similar.

Comment #62 - Posted by: jm at March 18, 2008 8:51 PM

re: #48 and others

am I the only one that thinks she wrote an article praising Crossfit?? For me, it seems like she got hooked on it and likes the fact that crossfit isn't solely about form (although yes it's important). And the reference to scientology is how something so different to most people is catching on like wildfire (although I would have picked something other than scientology) Everything she talks about (not having perfect sneakers, doing flourishes, having videos showing what the body can do) are things that Coach agrees with.

Maybe I'm being naive but I think she's all about crossfit and glad it's here.

Comment #63 - Posted by: Chris P. at March 18, 2008 8:53 PM

We at CrossFit NYC have already extended an invitation to fellow New Yorker Virginia Heffernan via our blog for her to come down to the Black Box and get some:

http://www.crossfitnyc.org/archives/2008/03/yes_virginia_th.html

If we convince her to do a workout with us, we'll be sure to let everyone know.

I agree with #66 that Heffernan likes CrossFit. Sure she's mocking the culty aspect of it, but hey, haven't we all drunk the Kool-Aid? It sure tastes great.

EC, great to see you in that video.

Comment #66 - Posted by: John-Orillia at March 18, 2008 9:08 PM

I made my own ball with sand and an old basketball, ended up being 25lbs (yikes!) so its more like 9 feet high throws. Also no rowing machine so I used a weight band, a wall and a skateboard. Have no idea of calories so I count reps. Get Some!

"Fight Gone Bad!"

"Fight Gone Bad"

I sub'd thrusters for Wall Ball(s): Gym won't allow it. Sub'd treadmill 800m for row, no rowers in gym...the gym sucks!!!
(x3)
- Thrusters - 39/36/25 = 100
- SDHP 75# - 32/27/20 = 79
- Box Jump - 33/30/21 = 84
- Push Press 75# - 25/20/20 - 65
- Run 800m (No Score)
- Total = 328 w/out row score....


Comment #69 - Posted by: Todd W. (Kandahar, Afghanistan) at March 18, 2008 9:22 PM

hmmm this should be intersting gonna have to figure someting out. only have 12lb ball, no rowing machine and only DB with low weight at home. cant do this at my gym.

think i'll try this, let me know what you think?

12# wall ball double squat
SDLHP but only have 65#'s
20" box jumps
ring pul-ups
burpes

what do you think?

Comment #70 - Posted by: Jay B. at March 18, 2008 9:23 PM

#72 Hmmm
Jay.... I think planked ring pulls would be similar to rowing...(minus the quads) but why can't you do thrusters instead of wall balls? I think it would be a better sub. Do your sumo and pp and concentrate on form this time if your weight is low. I wouldn't pick burpees....but that's because I hate them. Good luck, kick ass.

Comment #71 - Posted by: lara at March 18, 2008 9:41 PM

I have a rowing thing with my rack but it isn't like that chuck norris rowing machine you guys got in the movie, so how many lbs should i be rowing?

DO NOT HAVE A ROWING MACHINE AT THE STATION.

THE SUB FOR ROWING WAS SDHP WHICH WE ARE DOING
ALREADY IN THE WOD.

SO, TO MAKE IT INTERESTING I'LL DO 2 POOD KETTLE BELL SWINGS IN PLACE OF THE ROWING.

I KNOW. IT'S NOT PERFECT AND I'LL PROBABLY HAVE AN OUT OF BODY EXPERIENCE BUT HEY, IT'S WILD!

Comment #74 - Posted by: ROBERT SUTHERLAND at March 18, 2008 9:56 PM

In the article the second sentence describes the seminar speeches as "bellowing and dogmatic". It was the word dogmatic that struck me and prompted me to write about a topic I have been thinking about for quite some time in regards to this community and what drew me to it. For it is the opposite of dogma that for me defines my love of Crossfit. It is pragmatism that drives my appreciation. It is a willingness to question and test. To throw things out that don't work, to not avoid what does work because you don't understand it.

I think the real nuance and appreciation for me comes from the fact that I am not asked to blindly believe that the exercise I am doing is working, I get to measure with my times. I am not asked to simply believe my diet is working I get to see my performance gains and those of my peers.

I see this same pragmatism filter in to the rest day discussions where even when I disagree with the political posts, I have an appreciation that the posters are almost exclusively coming from a place not immune to reason or reality.

Crossfit is not about faith or abstract theory, it is about learning and teaching and pushing yourself in the real world, and for me, doing things I have never done before and would never have done without Crossfit and the community that surrounds it.

Comment #75 - Posted by: Ian Mosher CFATL at March 18, 2008 10:15 PM

If I can convince somebody else to do it with me, I'll do this within a week. It seems in keeping with the concept of FGB - high (glycolytic) metabolic cost without challenging strength too much that you revert to resting.

"Fight Gone Worse"

3 rounds, with one minute rest between rounds:
Wallball 2-for-1s, 20 lb. ball, 10 ft. target (reps)
Power snatch, 75 lb. barbell (reps)
Double-unders (reps)
Thrusters, 75 lb. barbell (reps)
Burpees

Comment #76 - Posted by: Andrew H. Meador at March 18, 2008 10:15 PM

maybe I'm dumb...but sounds like she likes crossfit...

Comment #77 - Posted by: jdawg at March 18, 2008 10:17 PM

I agree with Chris P. Although she subversively compares Crossfit to Scientology, she appears to have taken away some positives from Crossfit. Its similar to how some crossfitters do the WOD as RX'd, or sub as necessary. Some people Zone diet, others don't, for various reasons.

Picture yourself on the outside looking in on someone who has bought in on the Crossfit lifestyle. I think you will then understand how most ordinary people can view it as somewhat strange.

If the "outsider" is an intelligent person and does even a cursory readup on Crossfit, they will find that program/lifestyle of a person engulfed in Crossfit is mostly beneficial, with the exception of Pukie occasionally showing up.

Hey guys, as this is my first FGB, I would like an indication of how gruelling it is going to be. Will it compare to a Linda or Eva or something like a Cindy? Any comments welcome, especially the ones that say "Just toughen up and do it, 3 2 1 go"

#66 Chris P
I agree with you. I went back and re-read as I was wondering where all the negativity was coming from. It seems to me that Virginia Heffernan likes CrossFit and Coach.

I know nothing of Scientology nor the reason she links to it but the below is a small cut-and paste from the link;
Getting the correct technology applied consists of:
One: Having the correct technology.
Two: Knowing the technology.
Three: Knowing it is correct.
Four: Teaching correctly the correct technology.
Five: Applying the technology.
Six: Seeing that the technology is correctly applied.
Seven: Hammering out of existence incorrect technology.
Eight: Knocking out incorrect applications.
Nine: Closing the door on any possibility of incorrect technology.
Ten: Closing the door on incorrect application.

It seems that the above protocol works for a myriad of things...

Similar to; Conjecture, Hypothesis, Theory, Law...

Comment #97 - Posted by: TimL at March 19, 2008 3:25 AM

FGB! 236 i think... we were keeping our own scores and i'm pretty bad at counting, especially that high.

also i started at SDHP, then box jump, then push press, then row, then wallball -- it was a long walk to the wallball, so i lost a few reps there. no matter, i'm pretty much dead from FGB and that's the way i like it.

1st time FGB. Most unpleasant workout I've ever done. I know that endorphin exhaustion from sex can make fighters more sensitive to pain. Today, anecdotal reports suggest that sex immediately before FGB is an exceptionally bad idea for a warm-up. A co-ed cohort reports that "this was the most unpleasant workout they've ever done" and both, independently, wanted to quit throughout most of the workout.

no rowing machine in the new gym yet, so FGB will have to be put on hold-maybe tomorrow subbing double unders for rowing, not sure yet...did the Jolie vs. Sevan workout this morning

I absolutely love to hear and see people "bag" and criticise Crossfit. Why? Because I love laughing at people who just don't know. There is no point is wasting energy in trying to make people understand, they will either understand or they won't. And if they don't, who cares. There are plenty of us who do, and the others who also do, I consider them my family. My family is growing and one day I hope to meet you all.

To Neal, Jon, EC (and Sam, Nigel & Thor) from CrossFit Boston:

I may have stopped going to church but I never lost the religion. A year and a half after my last workout at CFB, with too much work and not enough working out in the meantime, I'm back in the saddle again. Sucks looking at yourself in the mirror and knowing you're far from your best, and not even on the path to excellence. FGB is the perfect yardstick to measure my fall from grace (previous PR in high 200's as Rx'd)

Two weeks ago I was at the International Health, Racquet, & Sportsclub (IHRSA) show in San Diego, surrounded by $80,000 treadmills and hunks of twisted steel designed for the "perfect biceps pump." Sure, there was some lip service payed to kettlebells & "functional fitness", but I just kept thinking what I wouldn't do for a block of chalk, a pullup bar and some bumper plates.

And so it begins again...

Comment #115 - Posted by: saggy at March 19, 2008 5:13 AM

FGB and the video:

I have loved...LOVED...each and every video. Until now my favorite was the PU/power clean video with Jamie and her bleeding hands (which touched off the music controversy, although I did fall in love with Buck Cherry!). But this video with Coach interspersed with the trainers doing FGB is simply priceless. Have you done FGB? Remember what it felt like in the middle of round 3? How much sense does that make now that you have seen Coach explain where you were on the energy graph? And the history of the name? Priceless. And who among us can fail to be inspired to the point of charging out the door when Coach ends that talk with "let's go get some"?!

I am off to the Colorado mountains for a long weekend with The Heir and Lil' Bingo for a boys' trip of skiing and riding. I will skip this today--I'm playing defense, hoping that my body will stay together for the trip. I will make it up (how can you not?) when I get home.

"Let's go get some!" I got chills...

not like linda, eva or cindy muscularly really. if you're pushing hard its probably the most aerobic wod in all of crossfit. like a long extended fran feeling. but at least you get breaks...so you can think about how much the next round will hurt. good luck.

Comment #131 - Posted by: Patrick H at March 19, 2008 6:16 AM

25/m/185/5'9"

so this one is a little weird without a rowing machine, maily because the recommended sub for the row is to do sumo-deadlift-high-pulls, and you are already doing it, which is what I did...so double the SDHP, so here are my not so Rx'd tally's
(and we used a 24 in box too)

Round 1: 31/23(SDHP at 75lbs)/24/18/26(SDHP at 45lbs)
Round 2: 28/18/24/18/26
Round 3: 27/18/25/15/24

if that wasn't confusing I don't know what is, but definately need a rower or a different sub for it yeah?

"Fight Gone Bad" w/subs:
--two 35-lb dumbells used for SDLHP and PP
--18" stool for box jumps (all that's available)

Used my 20-lb homemade sand-filled basketball for the wall ball. Gym's stupid Raleigh rower (no C2).

Had about 15 seconds between stations because I had to move around to get to them. I usually subtracted that time from each station (e.g., 45 seconds instead of 60), and with the time it takes to write down the scores the time got a little sloppy. But I got a great workout.

We weren't sure whether to run with the NY Times blog piece or this from John Shellnutt of SAIC - www.saic.com

"The "blindly follow the daily routine for 40 minutes" Crossfit workout program requires very little knowledge and understanding. That's why it works, most people are sheep. I am aware of the current cult-like following Crossfit has in the teams; Amway had team-guy moonie followers too. This program doesn't need sheep, it needs autonomous learners and self coaches. I had already planned to ghost and directly speak to the shortfalls in Crossfit/Gym Jones model in our proposal."

This was pulled from an email SAIC sent around. SAIC, and Shellnutt inparticular, are in the wrong line of work. They don't know their subject field sufficiently to be called professional.

I can't wait for Sellnutt to ghost write his shortfalls of CrossFit piece. I'm going to eat his lunch.

Did 2 rounds and 1 row. Was going well lost track of counting but each round was hard and fast. They had a 10kg ball so got to use a ball for the first time but no wall to use so threw it around 10ft. Will plan this out better next time as rowers where all taken and ran out of time in the end and had to go back to work a little annoyed but was happy with how i was going.

Comment #164 - Posted by: Lorenzo Fraquelli at March 19, 2008 7:36 AM

"The 'blindly follow the daily routine for 40 minutes' Crossfit workout program requires very little knowledge and understanding."

Hmmm...perhaps he hasn't really paid much attention to what goes on here chez CF. I think just a couple of times reading the subs/WOD's that I've used to work around my torn rotator cuff might be evidence of "knowledge and understanding", not to mention the extensive discussions of using the CFT for scaling purposes and the electrophysiologic impact of "flopping" at the end of a WOD.

Please save me a seat at the lunch table, Coach.

Push-press, 30 kg. (Reps)

Looking at these posts, it reminds me of my first FGB. It was the first "real" workout that our bootcamp group did (on the last day of bootcamp). I posted a 220 overall. That isn't too much, but for coming out of bootcamp I guess it isn't that bad. I can't wait to try it again so I can see how many points I will improve. Best of luck to you all.

#61 chris P - I think you misunderstood it. She compared crossfit to scientology in terms of each being massive belief systems. I'm sure she didn't mean it in terms of extent, but just that there is an element of dogma.

#72 Ian - good thoughts. But I think the amount of reverence for coach shows most people feel more than "hey, you made a good workout".

My thoughts? Great article, I totally agree. I just think she doesn't understand the way form fits into crossfit.

I agree with what she says about how form (and exercise) should be something innate. I routinely think that about running - why do we need to teach running if it's a natural thing our bodies do? I don't think dogs need any form coaching on running. Can anyone say "natural"?

But I think the rest of the stuff needs to be learned. If you don't do anything physical, your body forgets how to do anything physical. The body adapts to nearly anything, so if you don't use it, your body adapts and you lose it. Hence we need to learn form.

Comment #184 - Posted by: scott k (23yo male, 81kg, 5'11") at March 19, 2008 8:29 AM

Well, I looked at the article again she really is saying that lots of dogma exist to perpetuate a community based around complex movements needing good form. Sort of guessing on that last part. But I don't agree with that viewpoint, if that's what she meant. As i said, nothing wrong with complex movements needing good form.

Comment #185 - Posted by: scott k (23yo male, 81kg, 5'11") at March 19, 2008 8:33 AM

Coach, as if you need any input from somebody like me, but I hope you do...I have coached scholastically for 11 years, and I am telling you that crossfit is the most fun any of my teams have had exercising...they like the challenge, they like the mixing of exercises, and most of all, they like to see their results and comparisons with past wod's...thank you for all that you do.

"This program doesn't need sheep, it needs autonomous learners and self coaches. I had already planned to ghost and directly speak to the shortfalls in Crossfit/Gym Jones model in our proposal."

Is Shellnutt trying to offer a competitive program? What is it and what is it based on? To what teams is he referring and has he talked to these guys? I am sure their knowledge is a little more than "blindly following" and if they are SOF teams, I am doubting very much if they are "sheep". Have they met the autonomous learners and self-coaches of Crossfit supported by the dedicated coaches who are actually certified to coach?
Keep us updated Coach, sounds interesting!!!!

Interesting article -- and clearly a love note to CrossFit from Heffernan. I'm not certain why some people seem to be angry with her points but interpretation, like underwear, is a personal thing.

Ultimately, if we are a cult, what does it matter? I just penned a short piece on my blog regarding the cult label, if anybody's interested: http://crossfitwatertown.typepad.com/index/2008/03/is-crossfit-a-c.html

alright my first FGB!
no gym though so i had to be a little creative
subbed
45# thrusters for wall ball
45# SDHP
18 or so inch stair jumps (second stair)
45# push press
Jumping pull ups for rowing as SDHP are already used.

round 1 = 127
round 2 = 113
round 3 = 94

total = 334

i think the lighter weights really emphasise the metcon demands for me as i would have been going alot slower with rxd weight.
done this way i was able to keep moving pretty consitently

My wife and I did this. We used a 12 lb medecine ball instead of 20 due to lack of resources and a 24 inch box instead of 20inch. Also we have a rowing machine but the screen doesn't work on it so we counted each stroke as a point. This might be way off but it will be consistent with us until we upgrade at our local high school weight room. In the process of making a home gym. building a squat/bench rack and currently have 300lbs in weights. Our HS is buying more equipment soon so I hope to pick up the old stuff.

Comment #232 - Posted by: Malcom's at March 19, 2008 11:01 AM

On a side note...I really think FGB should be the "benchmark" CF workout. Of all the WODs that I can think of, this seems to put people on the most level playing field. Bigger/taller people still have to move their bodies and weight a long way when doing the exercises but can manage the weight better. Lighter/shorter people don't have to move as far but but the weight can become more difficult as the reps build. Then it just wreaks havoc on both your aerobic and anaerobic systems regardless of who you are.

I love it!

I started off with some active stretches and three rounds of the CFWU with 5 pull-ups per round. (~20 min) For the WOD I substituted 45lb thrusters for the wall ball and 45lb SDHP for the row.

75lb SDHP - 20 12 15

First time with FGB... it's brutal.

Sub 40 lb thrusters for wall-ball, all else as rx'd.

33-19-22-14-12
22-16-15-12-12
19-14-10-10-13

Total 253. Lost some time/reps due to stopping to write, but still wouldn't have broken 300.

I agree this should be the "official" benchmark crossfit WOD... "fran" is too short and requires one to be able to do 45 pullups; also, if the sub-3:00-fran crowd tried to put up that kind of intensity on FGB, they'd crash on the 2nd round. "cindy" is better, but again a lot of people can't do pullups. A much larger number of people can do FGB as rx'd, and it is more easily scaled to a beginner level without changing the fundamental movements (ring rows or the gravitron just aren't the same as kipping pullups). Only disadvantage is it requires a lot of equipment, although at any gym you could sub thrusters for wall-ball and an elliptical or treadmill for the rower.

How many jumping pull ups equals 1 calorie on the row machine? Because if i go with reps, I crush my goal, but if i divide, it puts things more into perspective.

My first FGB: 301 as rx'ed. Don't know how many for each exercise as I just kept counting as I went. About 12-14 calories each round of rowing.

I couldn't really tell if the article was praising or criticizing crossfit. Referring to crossfit as 'dogma' however implies that you have to believe in it based on faith rather than facts. Crossfit is backed up by the empirical data that we all record after each workout. No belief in a dogma necessary.

Comment #266 - Posted by: gmack at March 19, 2008 12:10 PM

This will be interesting, just getting over a cold and the globo gym will require me to do a lot of subs to avoid walking all over the place and waiting, so I'll be doing:

Three rounds of:
Wall-ball, 10 pound ball, 10 ft target (Reps)
Sumo deadlift high-pull, 2x20# dbells (Reps)
Broad Jump (Reps)
Push-press, 2x20# dbells (Reps)
Row (Calories)

Heaviest med ball they have is 10#s, no way they'd let me bring a barbell upstairs near the rowing machine, so SDHPs with dbells will be interesting. They don't let people not with a trainer use the boxes for box jumps anymore (stupid). And again won't be able to get a barbell near the rower so i'll be push pressing dbells. This will be at sub-maximal intensity, i'm still a lil sick.

Comment #272 - Posted by: edevine at March 19, 2008 12:37 PM

I had to make a few mods to the WOD because the "Fitness Center" where I work doesn't carry olympic barbells, only fixed weight ones. So the SDHP were at 80# and the push presses were at 70#. I also went with 40# thrusters, because the "fitness center" doen't have 20# balls and won't let me through the ones they have against the wall. At the end of it I got 297 points. and felt like vomitting. I love Crossfit.

#192, Tim:

I'm with Rick, although not quite as critical.

The fatalfitness program looks very much like a knock-off. There are definate positives: functional movements, check; variety, check; randomness, check; intensity, check. It seems if you followed the program in the manner that many follow the main page WOD's, you'd get a similar result.

But there are also definate negatives. Agreed that there doesn't appear to be structure... it looks more random, fewer benchmarks, less ability to compete with oneself. clearly less reading material, a useless FAQ. And their fitness test has the bar set WAAAY to high. Granted, crossfit's tests hold you to a pretty damn high standard, but I'm a mid-pack CF'er and the only events I would even be able to post a score in on "the reaper" are pushups and pullups, and low ones on both of the above; IMO that's unrealistically high.

But who knows, imitation is the most sincere form of flattery, right? And for all I know, the CF page might have looked like this to me had I stumbled upon it 5 years ago insted of 5 months... maybe they'll end up being competitors some day. Best to keep an open mind.

wall ball (12 lb): 21, 20, 21
SDHP (55 lb. bar): 15, 12, 10
box jump (20", I think): 15, 14, 15

row (calories - but noticed cord that "counted" was severed as I hopped on in my first set, so these numbers are estimates): 10, 10, 10

Am generally much more rested this week (spring break). Probably could have pushed harder!

First time doing FGB. I definitely could have pushed harder in some areas, like the first round of the push press and the rowing. Only my second time doing wall ball shots, so I've still got some technique issues to work on there. Overall, not too bad for a first effort, I guess.

Any lodging options for March 29th gymnastics cert?

Comment #289 - Posted by: VAS at March 19, 2008 1:16 PM

Looking for some feedback on this:

I'm thinking an acceptable sub for rows might be a modified "man maker". Do squat thrust (not burpee) with 25# DB rows, no push up, jump up with the dumbell at sides no overhead press. This gives you the leg thrusting of the row and the rowing motion without a push up or over head press like in a man maker (you don't do any pushing motion on the C2).

Any comments?

Comment #290 - Posted by: Bob in NoVA at March 19, 2008 1:17 PM

first time with "fight gone bad" subbed a 20# thruster bar for wall ball...and I got another person into the CF plan...so here goes the stats...

Good WOD, but need better substitute for row, either increase resistance or do as some have suggested, PU or maybe hanging leg raises.

usually I'm over on BrandX for the scaled workouts but had commented on the article last night and saw that people wanted some musica for FGB. So instead of doing work, I did this:

http://www.filefactory.com/file/e03ddc/

I'm pretty sure you don't have to register to download it. It's a mix of rock, techno, hiphop, punk, even a soundtrack. There is a single buzzer to let you know you should start each workout, and each song is 65 seconds long which gives you 5 seconds to get to your station. After the very first buzzer it is 5 seconds of silence, but the rest is music for 65 seconds each. There is a triple buzzer at the end of each rotation. The 60 seconds for rest periods also have music, you'll know it by the lyrics. Then it's a single buzzer back to the exercises.

First FGB:
45# thrusters instead of wall ball: 29,16, 14
75# Sumos: 20, 8, 8
20" box: 21, 14, 13
45# Push Press: 21, 22, 22
Row: 15, 9, 9

total: 241

Appreciate your home gyms or crossfit gyms!!!

went to my local globogym today and became very agitated, here's the story:

I set everything up and the place was looking empty so I was very glad. I brought the box jump platform and a bunch of stackers over to the barbell racks. First round goes well as planned but after I come back from my row, an old man has set up his bells on the box-jump that i just set up and puts his towel on the barbell rack and says he is using it. Okay fine! so i re-setup the other barbell rack and go over to set up another box jump to finish round 2. Great! I come back from the row only to find another man and his girlfriend occupying the only other barbell rack.. Man, what the hell! so I sit down and wait for him to finish during my rest minute. But this was one of those guys who only does a couple heavy squats (poorly performed by the way) and talks the rest of the time like it is social hour while I'm thinking to myself, "Are you going stand there and talk all day or do some F'n squats!!"

Man, I'm disgusted by all these people at the gym that don't know what they are doing, wasting their time, instead of working out!! Argh!!

There is no way I could have made it through 5 rounds.

This was less like "Fight Gone Bad" and more like "getting your a$$ drug out in the front yard and whipped by your old man in front of your friends."

The course was jam-packed with information, demos, detection/correction, and boundless enthusiasm. Pierre represents the organization with class and integrity.

Comment #310 - Posted by: jfett at March 19, 2008 2:12 PM

oh man this hurt. was screaming so loud on some of the SDLHP if the neighbors were outside they might have been scared lol! Didnt have time to put together my 20# ball today so subbed a 12# nike ball.

push press slowed me down, not enough legs in the form as ive never done push press so shoulders tired out quick. Subing burpees for rowing also slowed me down i think, those killed!

2nd week on crossfit and totally addicted!

FGB:
12# wall ball 9.5' target
SDLHP 75#
20" box jumps
push press 75#
burpees

score: 230

i really felt this one good, got in good rythm on wall ball and SDLHP but after that slowed down considerably.

was dissapointed in my score can't wait till next time, and ill have my 20# ball made by then!

33/225/6"0/m

only my second FGB; first one was in 2006. Everytime it's come up since then, I've had some excuse. Not this time though....

I tried to use my Tabata MP3 Mix to time my intervals (started on the first chime, switched after every 4th chime thereafter), but I lost track. So, my first round was a little off, as far as counting goes. Aslo, I just kept a running count in my head, to get a total for each round. After the first round, i just resorted to glancing at my wristwatch to keep track of the intervals.

1st round: 105
2nd round: 88
3rd round: 87

total score 280 (new PR, previous PR was 180)

looking forward to doing this again, want to crack that 300 mark.

Ran 5k instead because I'm resting my left rotator cuff (believe it's from not having very good form during snatches).

26:07. This is a personal best for me by a minute and a half so I'm pretty happy about it.

Used the rowing weight machine with 50lbs for the rowing. I screwed up and rested too much after the first round (waiting on my partner to start 1:40 seconds) but otherwise good to go.

265...I think...I lost count so many times, anyway good stuff.

damn golds gym. couldnt move the rower so i had to run across the gym to start rowing. then i got yelled at for dropping the weights. Thinking the trainers are jealous because crossfit workouts beat anything they can come up with. do 3 sets of 8-10 with 2 min rest inbetween. hahahahahahahaha

286 as prescribed except 20# thrusters for wallball shots. This was a PR but I was a little disappointed in my score. But I am on a business trip in an unfamiliar gym so I'll take it.

By the way, at the Boston Equinox, the manager asked me if I was looking for a trainer because "we all were watching you on the floor over the last couple of days; you're going to kill your back." I guess they were scared by the prior day's KB swings.

HAHA I forgot, I didn't meet MY CF Crew at 6am at the Y so had to do "FGB" in the gym at John Hancock were i work in Boston. I have gotten some great looks at the "Globo" gym, but this gym is different and this was just funny! I fell off the rower at the end of the 3rd RD because i could not breath or get my feet from the straps, then crawled a few feet to lay for 5 min before i could breath again! I think people were pretty close to calling an Ambulance!!!

Down from 302 last summer, when I was only getting ~10 cals to per row, whereas I averaged over 18 swings. IOW, performance dropped quite a lot with WB, SDHP, B jumps and PP.

Frock. But ... still one hellovaworkout.

Missed the last cycle. Travling and then sick Sun and Mon. Tough one to come back to. did not get through 3 rounds of this, but did get through each set without break. Still feeling weak from Flu I think.

WB:28-21
SDHP:14-14
BJ:17-15
PP:8-8
subbed Jump Pullups:30-31

Would have liked to get through all 3 rounds but almost fell over on my last set of push press. had nothing left in the tank.

Did:

75 lb sumo deadlift from smith machine (only bar I had left), so started with knees almost straight due to minimum height of smith bar.
12" box jump.
77 lb Push Press (metric weights)
44 lb row on cable rowing thing. (count reps)

thruster 21 22 19 = 62
deadlift 14 14 12 = 40

Wasted a lot of time recording reps. At least 10 sec per minute. Not sure how to fix that.

Comment #425 - Posted by: mobleytw at March 19, 2008 6:59 PM

Skipped FGB..
Yesterday instead of rest did Bear Complex and Airdyne for 5 rounds. Weak today. Did Jerk practice with horizontal pulls with rolling thunder handle.

Jerks 95/5 135/5 155/5 175/5
Rolling Thunder pulls 100/10 120/8 140/6 160/4

Why the high reps on the jerk? Keeps the load down and I need to work on getting my rack position back.

Back to the WOD tomorrow.

1st time as RX'd: 276 total

First (only other) time had to mod and scale, but this time was fully as RX'd. Will get 300 next time. Shot my wad on first round a bit, and maybe stomach bug from Sunday/Monday caught up to me stamina wise, but maybe not. First WOD back today.

Hand grip stuff and some calisthenics and KB swings to get loose earlier in day. Post: nothing.

Hey what do you guys do for cardio!?

Someone a few weeks back mentioned blood taste after an intense WOD. I experience that a bit today, for the only time ever... like in the back of the throat. What is that? My lungs feel pink and fuzzy.

Comment #451 - Posted by: Joel B. at March 19, 2008 8:11 PM

Does anybody know the reason the video says Exercise 1 is Rowing, but on the instructions today, it listed Rowing last? Is that an intentional change from how it used to be?

I think that the jump rope helped my score out tremendously, but i did not have a rower.

Don't even know if I should post this. I didn't pay attention to the explanation, I just did FGB as usual tabata intervals. 20 sec work/10 sec rest for 4 min each exercise with 1 min rest between exercises. Feel stupid right now.
Subbed 45# thruster for wall ball shots and 60-80 meter runs for rowing.

45# thrusters - 15/13/13/11/12/10/10/10 =93
75# SDLHP - 13/9/5/9/9/4/8/6 = 55
20 in box jumps - 9/8/9/8/7/6/7/7 = 61
75# OHP - 14/9/6/8/4/7/4/7 = 59
Total = 268 + 8 (60-80 meter "sprints")
Next time I'll pay more attention to the WOD

Comment #489 - Posted by: Kuna at March 19, 2008 10:43 PM

Into my fourth week back at it after the winter layoff. Was limited setting for FGB, made up:
5 rounds for time:
3 L-pullups
4 DL 150%BW (270#)
5 burpee
10 KBS 20kg
t=11:19
I enjoyed this. blew off my most explosive set of 20 pullups a little later, and got probably my biggest callus rip ever. Those kips are powerful.

Up from my pathetic 183 at the cert back in nov. A couple notes:

- 15# medicine ball
- 24" box jumps
- No bumper plates
- No rack for the PP

I think that the extra 4" on the box jumps, the lack of bumper plates (making each rep of the SDHP deeper and normal), and the lack of a rack for the PP (requiring a clean to bring the bar up) makes up for the lighter medicine ball.

I really wanted >300, but oh well. Next time.

That was just painful, ugh. I don't know if doing it late at night was the reason, but I was just dead. You got me this time Katon, curses!!

1st FGB. Sub'd a bench for a box and 90# cable rows for rowing machine. All else as rx'd.

I was alone and lost track of my score, but Pukie was chasing me big time after the first round. Next time I'll make sure to have a scorekeeper. As hard as FGB was, I liked it and it may become one of my favorites.

Just don't schedule it too often.......

So...have no way to score, but I did it! Three rounds....

Virginia Heffernan's New York Times blog shows a clear admiration and affection for coach and CrossFit, if written rather obliquely. As another member of the "mainstream media," I asked coach when he was in Toronto in November about being slapped with the "cult" label from time to time. He responded, less obliquely, with "How can we be a cult? We don't recruit, and we don't give a sh*t if you leave."

Like many other x-fitters, I had to create my own version of this due to limitations at my gym, Gold's Gym Rosslyn, VA.

3 rounds: 229 reps.
1 min wall ball (12 lb): 25, 16, 16
1 min max push-up: 30, 30, 26
1 min push-press (75lb): 12, 12, 10

1 min row (forgot to count calories).


Comment #517 - Posted by: Matt B at March 20, 2008 5:44 AM

I just started to get into Crossfit. I thought I would give it a try. OI Vey! I do not have a rower so I beat on a stump with a sledge hammer in my back yard. I gave my self 10 calories. I thought I was pretty "Fit" But my definition of fitness turns out to be pretty flawed. I will use the coach's definition. I only came away with 239 but I will keep on working at it.

Man, I love/hate this workout.

SCORE: 283

A PB, but only by three points. :\ I really wanted to break 300 and thought I was on track but I faded big-time in the third - probably because I let myself slack off mentally just a teeny bit. If I had've matched my old round three score I would've almost made the 300. You really need to keep pushing through to the very end with this one. Now I'm kicking myself. Next time! Next time!

I love the C2. I can't believe I'm lucky enough to have one in our corporate gym.

I lost the paper where I wrote my reps down, but remembered the totals. Oddly(?), the really limiting factor for me was grip strength. Between SDHP and rows, ouch. Row damper was on 5 and had to sub 45lb thrusters for wallball. I simply need to get fundamentally stronger all over.

Let's get some, indeed...

the only exception was I had to use a 10 lb ball - I am really petitioning the gym ot get a 20lb ball. Next time what are equivalents for this? (45lbs thruster I have read a lot)
GREAT WORKOUT I was looking forward to it. I think that my reps would increase with the wallball if it was not so far from the row machine... oh well - running clock is a running clock

WOD:

1:41
1:42
1:42
1:36

400 meters around a track

Legs felt pretty heavy after fight gone bad. I was pretty spent. Although this was my max effort at the time, I should have not tried to do two workouts in one day to "make up" the workout. I got probably 85 percent out of today's WOD.

Have Fun, Train Hard,

Billy


Me: 41yo/M/5’10”/184lbs

Warm Up: Greg E’s warm up + HSPU and Samson Stretch

WOD: 226 points

Wall Ball: 16lb ball 10 ft target
Sumo Dead lift High Pulls: 80lbs (two 40lb dumbbells)
Box Jumps: 30 inch box
Push Press: 80lbs (two 40lb Dumbells)
Rower: Concept II damper setting 5

This, is of course, a smoker workout. I love fight gone bad.

Using dumb bells makes it a little more interesting for sure. Today I got dry heaves on the last set of box jumps…… ahhhh…..fun times…

Have Fun, Train Hard,

Shoulder was hurting so after the first round, we subbed push-ups for push press and jumpin PUs for rowing. This jacked up the numbers some.

Looked easy on paper, but I promised myself no jumping pull-ups, so this was my first real pull-ups WOD, which nearly killed me and the two callouses I ripped open. Ran about 4 miles with the Run Club afterwards.

Comment #598 - Posted by: franklie at March 21, 2008 7:45 AM

This was my first FGB. Holy crap. That was awesome. I was totally smoked. Did it with:

Wall-balls = 12 lbs...biggest they had in the gym.
Sumo DLHPs / Push Presses = 50 lbs.
Also, there was a little walk in b/w the rowing machine & the rest, so I paused my timer in b/w, which admittedly gave me a slight rest...

----------------------

wall-balls: 25 + 20 + 17 = 62
sumo DLHPs: 12 + 10 + 10 = 32
box jumps: 12 + 12 + 14 = 38
push presses: 10 + 12 + 11 = 33
row: 14 + 12 + 14 = 40

Total = 205

Fight Gone Bad
1st time
Subbed 30 lb thrusters for wall-ball

194

Thrusters very tough getting down in squat position after a while
Push press-by that point in round-very tired and difficult
rowed a full minute each round, also had to go from garage to basement where rower is, which extended the total time to 19:57
HR: max 182 Ave 166

Fist time for FGB and subbed 20# thruster for wall ball. Sucking wind bad at the end.

(3) 16/15/10/10/11

Comment #604 - Posted by: Ray K at March 21, 2008 8:51 AM

Three rounds of:
Wall-ball, 20 pound ball, 10 ft target (Reps); Subbed 20#DB thrusters, all the way down 20, 15, 15
Sumo deadlift high-pull, 75 pounds (Reps) 15, 13, 12
Box Jump, 20" box (Reps): 20, 16, 15
Push-press, 75 pounds (Reps): 15, 10, 8
Row (Calories) Splits: 18, 17, 15

Just a guess: 224 Total points. Time presseure intense in this WOD, making keeping track of reps a problem. Pretty strict on time, except messed up my stopwatch starting, so may have got a little extra time, not much. Strategy allowed a full minute for rows (allowance to get to machine), but took it off rest time (except for last round, which I just ended when buzzer went off).

First ever FGB for both myself and the wifey...the suckometer was registering off the charts...as rx'd, with the exception of subbing burpees for the rows...wifey subbed 1 pood kb for the sdlhp, and 12 pound medicine ball, and 45 pound push press.

Not real happy with that, but it should be easy to improve.

Me and my buddy Taylor did it as Rx'd(1st time for both of us, not looking forward to the next:-). Next time will try some new strategies to even out the effort and do more prep work on some weak areas.

Me M53/175#/69" Total= 277 (tough on my pride, made the mistake of letting him go first, found it discouraging to see how far I was lagging behind)
Taylor M27/205ish/71" Total= 341 (guy's a stud!)

We would both agree with the post above us that stated it took longer to recover than to complete. We are at the fire station and almost sent the one member of our group who did not do this WOD, to get the heart monitor to make sure they were ready to bring me back just I case my heart quit on me! :-) -Rick

Super late post to this WOD, but I've been doing crossfit for about two months now. It was a slow start at first, and last time this workout came up, I completely avoided it. But I'm happy to say that I finally did it a couple of days after it was posted. And I'm still alive and loving crossfit

Fairly long break in between SDHP, box jump, PP, row getting to stations.

Need to build 20" box.

Some scores probably off a rep or two since they weren't written down immediately afer completing set. Did this one without a partner.

Did 20 reps of everything and did jumping jacks instead of rowing. (C2 on 2nd floor of gym)
