I love angie

it just the pull-ups that get me, everything else is only kinda sadistic

ok

I'm pretty pumped for this one! I hope my mountain biking doesn't affect my squats too much.

Good one, expecting Fran this cycle though.

not as bad as i expected! whew!

awesome! been waiting to do this one again.

Oso i want to see you do one pullup on your own today or i will fail you in my evolution class!! This would clearly show that you have not evolved far enough from apes!

I'm excited about this one, I feel another PR coming.

you have to say it like mick jagger ... "i'angie, angie, remember all those nights we cried"

hells yeah! been wanting to do this one since is tarted cf!!

if i do this at home i only have rings that i hang from a tree in my front yard, should i scale it? nah....

3..2..1... go!!

Can I change the order (move pullups away from pushups) and break it up into 5 sets of 20??

Do you have to do them all in sets of 100 like that or can I break it up?

angie!!! my favorite girl.

Do not break them up. Do all of one before moving to the next. You can of course do multiple sets to get through one exercise.

Rajib: Sure.. but it won't be "Angie"

Thank goodness.. All I need is a pull-up bar. I'll be on the lookout for one tomorrow.

If worse comes to worse I'll just practice my tree pull-ups :/

awsome video! taps in to that dark motivation.

Angie makes me happy :-)

Yah... Too bad it's calling for snow tomorrow, this would be a great one to do in the park.

After the weighted chins, BW feels like nothin'.

wanted to post this early so people would see it. There was an article in New York Magazine about walking barefoot. They mentioned the Vibram Five Fingers, which have been mentioned several times on this site. Anyway, interesting reading, so I thought I'd post the link:

http://nymag.com/health/features/46213/

Woah, seriously trippy video. I gotta add 'One' to the music repertoire.

HOW BOUT DEM CFJAX MONSTERS?!?!?!

Way to go Chris and Mike. Anyone care to do the calculation on how much total work that is?

Great box also!

i knew i shouldnt have benched yesturday

Bolling's new pull-up bar is nasty, i'm jealous. All these new pull-up bar systems keep one-upping eachother. It's like how roller coasters are always getting a little bigger and better. Maybe someday a CrossFitter will create one that's worthy of the Guiness book? I'll get them on the phone...

Looking forward to Angie tomorrow, my girlfriend is boring me.

oh my god i'm not going to be able to do this in less than an hour if I want to do full pushups. bring it on.

sweet

so we complete all 100 then move to the next exercise

so we finish one exercise at a time?

#6 ...

Jake,

Not as bad as you expected?! Please excuse my ignorance, but how worse can it get?!

body weight squats or weighted squats?

Watching the video, I kept thinking, "Don't dump the weights on the dog."

video info

10 rounds of the following:
- 225lb squat clean
- muscle ups
- handstand pushups

either 2 squat cleans then 3 mu's then 4 hspu OR 1 squat clean, 3 mu's then 5 hspu. failed attempts count as one rep on the squat cleans (if you disagree w/ this rule, you give it a shot!)

mike's bodyweight - 200lbs
chris's bodyweight - 160lbs

All I have to say about that video is...damn son.

Ha So I, instead of resting on rest day decided to make up a workout - Good thing I chose Michael instead of this! Giddy up.

I also can not do a pull up yet. I have been trying to slowly get off the gravitron machine, one of the guys at work is also bound and determined to help me and is spotting me but that puts my arms out of commission for a few days. Any suggestions anyone?? Lat pull downs? I think the problem is I lack lats.

by the far the most bad@$$ video ive seen so far...then again im a metalhead and love cleans

Geezus, people...read the FAQ and watch the videos.

And here I thought you were afraid of touching trees...

Nice I have always wanted to do this one ever since I heard that my friend got rhabado after it.

I found out that the outside track has a pull up bar, that means I can finally do real KIPPING PULL UPS! The bar at school only allows me to do a mini kip.

Just to make sure, this workout is done in any order, but you have to finish rep 1 to 100 before switching exercises? In other words I do 100 pull ups then 100 push ups and not 25 Pull ups then 25 push ups 4 times

I did this the other day because I couldn't do back squats - 25:05. That's 3:30 off of a month ago!!! The next day, I did Weighted Pull-ups for the first time - worked up 80#!!! Not bad for 3 months of CF! I love this stuff!

wow - thanks MarkW

;)

# 30 - Richard
I DARE you to try weighted squats!

Not complaining, but there seems to be a bit of a theme going with the movies lately.

Sweet! This will be my first attempt at Angie doing real bodyweight pullups. I subbed her in a week ago for another workout and had shaved 8 minutes off the prior time. Cannot wait!

OK, loved the video. So eerie and tough. Cool.

No way I am going to be able to do 100 kipping pull ups. I am going to have to do mostly jumping. Those x@! pull ups... why are they taking so long...they frustrate me! I have done 5 kipping in a row then recently I have regressed and can do only one! AHHH!

I remember the first time I did Angie......Ripped my hands open on those pullups. Hopefully will do better this time!

AllisonNYC

I believe the tree pullups require a dose of beer and/or whiskey to be 'authentic'. ;-)
Like this one as it is a prep for Murphy.. planning on that one next month.

#37 wtp: Conquering my fears one WOD at a time.

Man, it's been too long...I missed Angie when I went to NTC...oh, well, it's time to make up for it!

Nina -

>> wow - thanks MarkW <<

:-) Maybe I'm not always as patient as I should be. Just maybe though.

OK, to answer the question, it's 100 pullups, then 100 pushups, then 100 situps, then 100 squats or it's not Angie...

Whoops should have looked at the previous posts before asking the same question. Thanks #15

Anyone ever tried to do this with 20 get ups between the 100s (and 20 to finish off the workout)? I thought they'd be a break from the high reps, but they are the most miserable part.

to anyone who has already asked or is unsure

the workout is done only in the order as stated and you have to complete all 100 before moving on the next exercise. that's just how it is with angie.

I'm loving the last two videos. Keep the Transformers coming. Just did a rough workout tonight at Red Rocks Amphitheater for my "rest" day, so might have to skip out on Angie. Although it was the first WOD I did and recently did it for my 1 year CF anniversary on the 9th. Guess I'll see how I feel tomorrow.

"Angie"

as rx'd. that is 100 pullups then 100 pushups then 100 situps and finally 100 squats.

look, I know somew of the WODs are quite complex and worthy of questions.
BUT FFS how simple can it get?
100 pullups
100 pressups
100 situps
100 squats
do it in order, partition as nessesary - thats it.

read the FAQ please, its all there in glorious technicolour complete with pictures, videos, etc.

Please see an update on the 2008 CrossFit Games under "competitions" board

Does anyone know where I can find used dynamax balls in the LA area or online? They're expensive!

Are you supposed to use a bar or anything for the squats?

#60 - >> Are you supposed to use a bar or anything for the squats? <<

Your question is addressed in the FAQ on the front page.

Nice, I found this one wasn't too bad in the process, but the day after was absolutley brutal. My right ring finger was torn to pieces. Let's get some everyone!

OUCH!!!

It took me over 22:00 just to knock out the pullups!

Dragoon I am using your post as motivation. Thanks.

Thanks MarkW I'll investigate a little deeper next time I've got a question.

that video of CF Jax was intense. Man I want to give that workout a try one day, but today I'm doing angie, hehe...

Correction. The 9th was my birthday. The 2nd was my 1 year CF anniversary. Wow, maybe a rest day for me tomorrow is a good idea.

People wondering about what weight for squats, and what order for the exercises can also try reading previous posts on the page that have already answered the questions multiple times.

It could be EVA?

Cool video. I never ceases to amaze how many badass Crossfitters are out there. I see guys like that and my jaw just drops. Those guys were rock solid.

Crossfit is so huge now (and still growing). Imagine if every stud or studette out there could attend the Crossfit Games. What a competition that would be.

The music on these vids lately has been simply awesome. If the CF guy who makes these awesome vids could post the name of the songs you use that would be awesome, I would go to itunes and get them for my workout pod.

Appreciate it.

That video was sick! I wanna know what their time was. I can't wait to do that workout, but first I gotta find out how much I can squat clean.

Made up the pullups.

85-90-85-80-75

Looks awesome, will definitely be taping my hands for the pullups. They just healed from the pullup ladder :( Missed the last 3 days with illness. I think I will do Angie tomorrow and maybe makeup the pullups, squats, and press on next rest day.

I'm going to have to replace the pullups with heavy rows until I get a pullup bar in my home gym.

This will be my first crossfit WOD =D

im 17, and this is my frist crossfit workout it took my ages but i got all the reps done (pullups were mostly jumping but) im proud of myself and hope to start getting stronger

Wow, I don't have a pull-up bar, only rings. I think that mean this will be painful.

Since starting crossfit a few months ago, I will never go back to jogging/ split workouts. This is so much more fun! Every morning when I wake up the crossfit site is the first thing i check. This workout really defines my new motto (stolen of course) "It's going to hurt so good"

terrific video...really great seeing guys go after the heavy weights...amazing strength, esp relative stregth....what time did these guys get?

my back has been shot lately....been hurting fora while but lately i haven't been able to do cleans, deads or back squats (overhead squats and front squat -- with lighter weights have been ok).

Pull ups still slowing me down but my kip has improved greatly since I last did this in December.

welcome to the best fitness community I have ever experienced. please check the FAQ page and watch as many videos as possible. work hard and watch the results. its truly amazing. if only this was around when I was 17.......

#86 Rookie, I agree entirely! I think back on all of those years of training and while it was generally good quality, it was nothing compared with CrossFit!
If only...

Bah, all you complaining about the pullups--at least you can DO them; my forearms are still recovering and I can't even hang from a bar without pain. Maybe by June... so I only did the other three events, and it still hurt bad. Forgot to time. Sigh. Maybe next round. At least I did it (well, 3/4 of it).

Good morning all. Great workout. First time I have even done angie (don't tell g/f). Anyway, I must confess, I started with a defeated attitude. Before I even touched the p/u bar, I was thinking of scaling down. Funny, something came to mind from yesterday's post I think. WWCD - a bit cultish, I know but I got thru it...with the strange stares!

btw, I hate pullups!

Pretty kewl video. Didn't realize it was Jax. I am going to stop by there this weekend. I can't wait.
Any j-villers on the post?

34/160, 14:45, new PR by a minute and all kipping pull-ups rather than 1/2 jumping. Pull-ups and sit-ups still my longest events. I need a nap.

Saving Angie for later today.
Ran 30 minutes (7.5 warmup, 15 w HR 162-179, 7.5 cool down)

my legs still hurt a lot from Murph on Monday, but I PRed Angie with 19:31... 2 mins better than 080301.

1/2 Angie (all 50s instead of 100s): 4:28. Can't afford a hand tear or callous rip this close to Nationals, hence the reduced Angie.

No breaks on pullups, situps or squats. Three breaks on pushups....I could have been very close to a four minute score if I were stronger on the pushups.

23min, which is a full 4:30 off my PR. Explained by the fact that a) this is the first Angie post-injury; and b) morning workout, which is never PR-land for me.

Tariq

Anyone know where I can get the schematics / cost estimate for that pullup bar structure?

Looks like something my company need dearly, muhahahaha!

I started with kipping pullups and then when I could only do one at a time I transitioned to jumping pullups with the occasional kip mixed in. Very painful the whole way through but dagumit I finished. I was lightheaded during the squats, so I took them a little more slowely. I know a lot of you like to throw up after a workout but I don't :)

36:26 First time with Angie the way she was meant to be done. ouch!

Push Ups 7 min's. Sit Ups 3 min's (bent leg on the floor). Squats 3 min's (2 kick shields flat on top of each other as a depth marker). Not overly smashed up at the moment. Looking forward to kipping one day.
CrossFit rocks! Been doing it for about 3 months. Not super regular yet but getting there. Huge fitness benefits already.

I did Angie today with anchored AbMat situps instead of the GHD, like I've done in the past. That helped my time a little, but I also know I was faster on my pull-ups; finished those in less than 10 minutes, and it took me almost 12:30 last time. Progress!

The biggest difference in my time was in the pullups and maybe 1:00 in the pushups. I don't think my situps or squats were improved from last time. Didn't feel winded, just muscle fatigue slows me down on this one!

Feet were anchored on Abmat and I did PR my pullups - got the first 30 unbroken!

There has to be some accuracy in these times and that ain't it.

2nd WOD, and I only did a 1/2:

The pullup routine whooped me:

Pushups: Broke down into 25, 10 , 10, 5 - 2:30

My obvious weakness is the pullup. Still have a way to go until I do 100 of each.

on behalf of mike, myself and cfjax i want to thank everyone for the compliments on the vid. we tend to take each other for granted since we all train w/ one another on a daily basis. to have people from all over acknowledge our hard work and effort makes it all worthwhile.

i believe this wod took me around sub-17 and mike sub-20 or 22. the squat cleans definitely put molasses into the wod, regardless of a successful or missed attempt. mentally it was tough for me to get under the bar each and every time.

you can't hear the audio in the vid, but yes, neetch, the doberman in the vid, was providing us motivation by telling us to quit being 'vertical smiles' and clock-in and work lol.

great scores and times to everyone on angie today btw!

as rx'd
first time with Angie 22:30

I was all excited to go outside and get some real kipping in, but the pull up bar at the track was slippery and rotated when I was swinging. That being said the problem was fixed when I got to rep 50 and switched to a mixed grip. I also forgot that the kip is supposed to be violent VIOLent VIOLENT! After the first 20 I was doing sets of 5 every 10 to 15 seconds, at 80 I started to do only 3reps and I got pissed and started to kip harder. I got to 90 and took a 30 second break, then finished with 10 in a row, kipping my ass off!

If anybody sees this post and hasn't done Angie yet remember to KIP YOUR ASS OFF! HARD! HARD! HARD!

(sigh) The highs and lows of Crossfitting in a conventional gym. Started this young lady this morning with the rest of the crew at the local Gold's. A personal trainer left his lesson and promptly came over as I was taking a breather between kipping pullups on the first set and reminded me that unless I control the motion better, sooner or later I will rip a lat. This is the second time this has occurred in this gym and no amount of "I have been doing pullups like this for over two years" or "I don't know anyone who has 'ripped a lat' doing kipping pullups" will convince him otherwise. I felt it was bound to happen sooner or later, I just hoped they wouldn't be as persistant. Anyway...

Felt good power-wise. Left shoulder starting acting up early during pull-ups, making negatives painful. I felt had the strength to to 50 kipping pull-ups but not the willingness to further hurt my shoulder. Push-ups were the toughest part...failed on a few reps.

40 Pull ups straight!! I think that if I pace my Pull ups I would have a faster Angie but when I got to 30(old PR) I new I could get through it.

#245, Matt (and anybody else who wants to know)

It's always you vs. you, so if you kip this time, then the next time Ms. Angie shows up, you will kip again, so that you're comparing your times on the same workout. Most people kip. You can be sure that if you see a truly stellar time posted, that person kipped.

For all Crossfit exercises involving pullups, it is expected that you will kip, unless the WOD states "Full ROM, no kipping" or something like that (which I've yet to see a WOD rx that). Now, go getcha some!

You should have gone "oh, my lats? They are ripped"

And promptly torn of your shirt, and flex your back muscles at him until he cries. At least, thats what I would have done.

First week of Crossfit, loving it so far.

Angie as Rx'd 31:25

Pull-ups proved to be difficult, after that not too bad. Hope to improve by at least 5:00 for next time around.

Pullups are a killer for me.

first time posting and first time with Angie

18:07 as rx'd. Did 4 sets of 25 reps each. Pull ups sucked the rest was easy.

We should do a "You might be a crossfitter if"...email me if you have any ideas. might be a cool t-shirt with the top 10.

29:25

For time:
100 Pull-ups (12:23)
100 Push-ups (7:42)
100 Sit-ups (6:54)
100 Squats (2:26)

BW = 170

Cool video and awesome work by the guys in it, but some of those catches were looking like a wrist break about to happen and some serious lower back rounding was going on. I was starting to cringe a little. I'd love to try that WOD, but I would consider going down in weight a tad to a more manageable weight with cleaner form. Still, I can't take away the fact the JAX boys did some serious work there!

Actually did 'Diane' today.

21-15-9
225# deadlift
handstand push-ups

as rx'd: 18:21

First time doing it. I watched a video on crossfit and the guy (can't remember name at the moment) did it in about 5 minutes!!!! WTF!

Anyhow, although tough, the workout was great.

225# deadlift might have been too ambitious for a first Diane. Did 3 at a time the first set. 1 at a time the next two.

Did kipping handstand push-ups. I actually like this exercise. Got the rhythm down after the first 5.

Pain is my companion!

Crossfit Newport Beach kicks arse!

3rd week with CrossFit, 1st time with Angie.

Everything as Rx except pullups. Got 41 and then did the other 59 as jumping pullups.

Read about CF in Muscle and Fitness and started with Andy Petranek's Hell Week as Rxd in the article: Helen, Fran and the Murph were some of my introductions to the program.

Got Chris and Mary Evelyn in Mississippi amped.
Do work, Chris.

First time, I suck at pull ups. cheated like crazy after about 20.Lots of jumping. The rest was ok.Shoulder a little weak during push ups.
Crossfit seems to be helping it along in rehab

My first time doing this one as rx'd (had to do jumping pull ups last time)! It took me a while and I got a pretty fierce tear in my hand, but it was worth it to be able to say:

Pull-ups took me 14:45 for 100 full ones
Got some extra shoulder work in on the push-ups because I had to hold db's and they kept rolling (recently chipped a bone in my wrist so I have to keep it stable)

Just started CF and I can already tell it's gonna help me with my rock climbing

29:44 as rx'd. Wow, hi there pullups.

m/27/218#/arlington, va

as rx'd except used jumping pull-ups

this was my third crossfit workout. i'm definitely excited about the crossfit concept and the workouts. kipping looks so easy on the videos, but i guess it's going to take practice. will practice in warm-ups going forward.

need to improve push up endurance as well. i was able to knock out 40 push-ups at first, but upon finishing the 100, i could only do 4-5 at a time.

Me: 41yo/M/5'10"/180lbs

Warm Up: Greg's Circulars

WOD: 26:26

Pull Ups: Kipping, well, my crummy version of kipping, palms facing away.
