Where's the hook grip?

Comment #7 - Posted by: Anon at May 14, 2008 7:57 PM

I was driving home today and thought this was gonna be the WOD

My previous PR is 11 rounds and change...hoping to get at least 15 because I feel much stronger in all these exercises.

My DL today were:
245-245-255-265-275(PPR)-280(PR)-285(PR)-290(Fail)

I did about 3 sets of 135x3 with a little bit of progression without trying to fatigue myself obviously

Can't wait for tomorrow and Cindy...hopin to have my first date with mary soon.....I just need some pistol work

Comment #8 - Posted by: Mike Myer at May 14, 2008 7:58 PM

13 rounds last time, but did 20 for murph in 23 minutes recently. Time to blow that 13 round number out of the water! GET SOME!

Comment #15 - Posted by: bpgpitt at May 14, 2008 8:06 PM

Anyone ever do 10minutes of each Cindy then Mary?

I know it does not follow the protocols but...

Either way looking at Mary time manana, need to hit 10 rounds.

Hoping to break that tomorrow! I love Cindy, but I am going to be laying down the law tomorrow!

Comment #17 - Posted by: Marty-Chicago- at May 14, 2008 8:08 PM

Good idea, #11. I will use a 20# vest on Cindy. Can't do Mary yet, so that'll be my skill practice post workout. :)

Comment #18 - Posted by: Herm at May 14, 2008 8:14 PM

Sweet - I was hoping for some body weight stuff.

Comment #19 - Posted by: Mike K at May 14, 2008 8:17 PM

I got a question. I'm currently doing the "Pavel's Ladders" on pullups during my CF warm ups.So today should I just the the WOD and skip the ladders?

Comment #20 - Posted by: gilbert at May 14, 2008 8:19 PM

did cindy monday at 16 rounds. I could have gotten 17, but i read my stop watch wrong and stopped early and didn't realize until there was only 15 sec. left.

Mary tomorrow...

Comment #21 - Posted by: Raze at May 14, 2008 8:19 PM

OK I know I already posted but I just had to let you guys know what just happend. One of my buddies just walked in and asked what I was doing. So I told him I was asking a question about pullups for this X fit workout. He then said he wants to get in better shape but doesnt want to get all big and bulky. I said do XFIT. He replained but saying "I don't want to do that crazy s&%t!" I said "Neither do MOST people".

Comment #30 - Posted by: gilbert at May 14, 2008 8:37 PM

#20
Skip the pullups for this wod. You should be fresh for an accurate set count.

Comment #31 - Posted by: BPemberton at May 14, 2008 8:39 PM

A few questions..why is this the only workout with a choice in it?

And why are so many weight workouts 7 sets? Did coach just figure out from empirical evidence that this is the right number?

Comment #32 - Posted by: Sam F at May 14, 2008 8:40 PM

I'm new to CrossFit as I have only been doing the WOD's for about two weeks now. The last couple of years I have been apt to train as a bodybuilder. Did the DL's today

225-275-295-315-365-385-405, this following the CrossFit warmup, and 10 sets of Bench.

Comment #33 - Posted by: chris0311 at May 14, 2008 8:42 PM

forgot to say did 20 Cindy's in 20 mins as part of Murph last week so thought I would do this other fine WOD

Comment #34 - Posted by: Rookie at May 14, 2008 8:43 PM

To fight fans, Jason "The Athlete" MacDonald.

Comment #35 - Posted by: Redding Mark S at May 14, 2008 8:44 PM

Deadlifts today

185 205 225 245 265 285 305miss
295(PR) 305miss

did it on an empty stomach after 21 hr. fast and felt great. Been smashin food ever since. ME deadlifts are better than fran on empty stomach.

Can't wait for Mary I love pistol squats!

Comment #36 - Posted by: LDS at May 14, 2008 8:45 PM

Ugh! I am so NOT stoked. I've been wanting to do Cindy again, since the last time I was coughing my lungs up and only got 11, but I really think I'm good for 15....

But now... I had to go and f!&k up my shoulder, and had a yummy time on Monday getting dye injected into it for an MRI...

Anyway... Enough crying... Anyone have recommendations for WODs that don't involve shoulders? The only ones I could think of were Michael & the 5 rounds of 30 GHD situps & 25 back extensions (which I did today)...

Comment #37 - Posted by: celeste b. at May 14, 2008 8:46 PM

Atom I've always wondered that too! Ohlord I hope it's the first one... that's what I get for always choosing Cindy. I'm going to make it a point to break my Mary-cherry lol.

Wont be at GSX tomorrow, gotta 830 rez at dorcia. Got to do the workout in the morning. Way before you wake up. Good Luck!

Comment #39 - Posted by: LONG SX at May 14, 2008 8:52 PM

Kath,
Ya, I think for the one-legged squats it's 5 left / 5 right too but I don't want to end up cheating if it's not.

anybody know for sure?

This is my first time courting Mary too, good luck to ya....

Cindy it is!

BTW, love the Blauer stuff. just makes sense.

I can do 1 legged squats, but not true hspu and for speed my pull up well.. s*%k

Comment #46 - Posted by: sherri at May 14, 2008 9:49 PM

Hello crossfitters,
quick question. I am scheduled for a cert. on June 13th and was wondering if anyone put together anything different than usual in regards to training or diet in order to perform at their best for the cert.? If anyone has any tips they would be greatly appreciated. I have been doing crossfit for about 1.5 yrs so I am fairly confident but want to be at my best. thanks alot! looking forward to the responses.
-Jake

Comment #47 - Posted by: jake o at May 14, 2008 9:53 PM

The great workouts just keep coming. I'm pumped for Cindy. Going tackle her with the 20lbs vest.

Comment #48 - Posted by: Mike Ryan 22/5'11/170 at May 14, 2008 10:39 PM

Hey Joel Comment 42 phx2083

The video that you just posted is the video that made me realize that I had been doing Mary wrong for quite awhile. I was doing ten leg pistols on one side on one round and then I would do ten on the other side on the next round. Tomorrow, I will do it alternating legs after each rep instead of after each round, for the first time. I am looking forward to see how different my score will be.

Also, I still remember when you gave me those tips on my dead lift in Phoenix about six months ago. I have increased my dead lift over 25 percent since that day. Thanks a lot brother, stay safe.

Have Fun, Train Hard,

Billy

Sorry Rich3,
Guess I should've cheecked my spelling on that one. I also lost count of how many rounds I did but I also got so tired from doing this today that learned to do the kipping pullup out of sheer necessity.

1st ever Crossfit WOD!

It's a bit embarrassing to post, but I did 9 rounds of Cindy. Pull ups were definitely the weakest link...

Comment #59 - Posted by: TimE at May 15, 2008 12:51 AM

I attempted to do a Crossfit exercise for the very first time in my life... EVER. However, I couldn't do Mary because I can't do handstands very well. (y'all are gymnists!) And I couldn't do Cindy neither because I don't have a pull up bar at home.. so I did the best I could with a Cindy inspired exercise by replacing 5 pull-ups with 25 stomach crunches. I did 12 rounds.

Comment #60 - Posted by: Benson Yang at May 15, 2008 12:52 AM

who has the worlds best cindy and what is the score? not that i think il beat it but interested in what i need to aim for. infact where are the best scores shown would love to see what people can do on the other side of the pond. from bodywise-uk

#47 Jake O,
I've been a Personal Trainer for years and I was CrossFit certified nearly a year ago. Before my Cert, I made the mistake of trying to create a program that would "prepare" me for the intensity of the WOD's @ the cert. UH UH!! Simple answer, do the HQ WOD's and do them hard. Do them with people that will push you. The Cert WOD's are gonna smoke you anyway....but that's what they're supposed to do!! Enjoy it Homie!!

"Cindy"
26 Rounds

Comment #70 - Posted by: x66F at May 15, 2008 3:32 AM

#32 Sam F :

to attack the cns in an effective way, you have to hit your body with "big"(intensive muscle-coordination required, big muscles hit, many muscles involved, especially if taxing the core and stabilisers) and heavy movements in a way that allows you to have enough rest to not hit muscular failure, while keeping a good frequency you hit the muscles with, meaning the central nervous system is best trained at high loads with more sets and low reps.
an example would be to do as many sets of 3xdeadlifts as you can within 20 minutes at a load of at least 80% of your 1RM. (of course, you can always replace the deadlift with another excercise, like squats, weighted pullups etc, as long as a plenty, and especially big muscles are involved). this prevents your muscles from failing, keeps your workload high, and by having a good amount of reps at high loads, your cns is trained in an effective way.

hope that helped.

'Cindy' this morning.

Got the last 5 or 6 rounds on video--my form on the squats suffered severely as I got closer to the end of the workout. I was not happy to see it, but I am thrilled to find things that I'm doing wrong. I highly recommend getting yourself on video if you can, it's a great chance to see what you're doing right and what you need to work on.

22 rounds, 5 pullups, 10 pushups, 1 squat

Last time:
20 rounds, 3 pullups

Comment #84 - Posted by: drew-ct m/24/180 at May 15, 2008 4:27 AM

PS - first time to be able to squat to a med ball, ie, first full ROM Cindy. My thanks to the folk (Andy, Eric, Lisa, Nicole) at Level II cert for making sure I got that part. Those AM wall squats are the real deal. Paul

Comment #85 - Posted by: Apolloswabbie 6'2" 210 44 yoa at May 15, 2008 4:28 AM

I think I'll have Cindy do me...

Did horribly in my deadlifts yesterday, almost like I couldn't hold the bar. I got it off the ground at 345 but I could feel it dropping.

Granted the GF was on her elliptical with the news going on the TV, so I didn't have any pump up music going..

Hm... Perhaps...

Anyhow.. Queens of the stone age concert tonight. Can't wait. Date with Cindy first.

Day 2 of Xfit...
half mile run warm up
Cindy

8 full rounds
failed after 3 pull ups on round nine then finished the set.

was shooting for 10 rounds but after 3 hours of Krav Maga last night just happy not to blow off the gym. Pull ups are a problem (for now) used weight assist (150 first 3 rounds, 140 next 3, 130 last 3)getting a feel for the kipping motion.


Comment #107 - Posted by: Paul B at May 15, 2008 5:49 AM

Cindy today but did variation handstand pushup with flat bench instead. First time got 15rds. Next time I'll try Mary. Have to work on the pistol can't even do one without losing my balance. Crossfit rocks.

Finally got the 30. I just went for it. Now that I've passed that little barrier, I'll start working harder on other techniques. I felt pukie comming around at round 27 and had to really slow down. I know that if I hadn't had that feeling I could have done more, which makes me feel good about the next time.

23 Rounds + 5 pullups + 10 pushups + 1 squat (PR)

Last time I did this in January and got 18 rounds. My old PR was just under 20 last summer. I wish I could do more pushups unbroken. Most rounds after the 5th were done 7/3 or 6/2/2 which eats up the time! However, I made sure to hit chest to floor and come up elbows straight on all of them. I'll be faster next time!

Look in the FAQ it gives you the details for CFWU.

Comment #141 - Posted by: RC at May 15, 2008 7:33 AM

The flexor-extensor physiology is interesting. When you startle a cat, it hits its extensors, which makes it jump up. But when you touch something hot, the flexors are hit, which causes the limb to retract from danger. The difference is that when touching something hot, it is an autonomic response--meaning that the hot signal goes from the finger to the spine, then back to the nerves that fire the arm flexors. There is no processing in the brain. However, the startle-flinch response is initiated from other senses (sound, visual, etc.), so it goes through the brain, which is microseconds slower. Aparrently, the startle response fires the extensors, not the flexors. Is this correct?

Cindy: 26 rounds as rx'd

This is like the third time of hit 26 rounds as rx'd... but the last two times i've done Cindy, i've done it with a 20# weight vest on and completed 23 rounds... so you'd think I'd break the 26 rounds when done as rx'd. I was in Haiti from May 1st-8th and since i've returned everything has been a bit harder for some reason... I did bodyweight workouts while i was there and actually thought it was a nice break and was hoping to feel refreshed when I returned. Well, not so much... o well, still a great WOD today.

Comment #166 - Posted by: Mike K at May 15, 2008 8:36 AM

With all the great martial artists that do crossfit why do you keep featuring Tony Blauer?

His niche has been the mental side of self defense which is all theoretical. He should just stick to that.

When he starts to demonstrate actual technique it's terrible. Case in point, today's lesson that any high school wrestler could provide more realistic solutions.

It's too bad that people evolved to have heads on top of their shoulders. It would be so much easier to do cyclical pull-ups if we could just get rid of our heads all together, no? Imagine sub-2 minute Frans...AND we would have 10 to 15 pounds less weight to carry around...but only in a perfect world I guess.

Our times would be so great.

Damn evolution for giving us these useless appendages!

P.S. How great would our times be if we could just lose 6-8 inches of arm length too?

I am considering treatment for my lower back pain called Network Spinal Analysis...anyone ever tried this? It is a gentle/non-invasive form of spine treatment (as opposed to the Chiropractic method). My back pain has gotten worse from the heaps of DL's and Cleans we have been doing lately. Thanks for any help!

8 round improvement in 2.5 months! I can gut through 5 pullups without stopping now pretty much indefinitely. The pushups are definitely the slow point for me as they were the only thing I broke sets on at the very end. I'm real pumped about this one!

Bad day. I’ve had a lot of work and family stress the past 6 days and I’m quite finished. Only had an omelet in the morning and a small protein drink in the afternoon. Did 5k run twice in the past 3 days and felt it in my legs today. Strengthless and fatigued. Last time I did Cindy I could do all set unbroken but now I had to start breaking the squats down a bit after 15 rounds. Well, you can’t have great days always, but it would be worse without CrossFit.

I've reached the point where I'm not taking rest breaks longer than 2 quick breaths so any significant improvement from here will be due to faster tempo within the sets. I actually felt pukie nearby a little around the 20th round. That's never happened with Cindy before.

I'm officially registered for the Crossfit Games now. I'll be rooting for everyone from Cali to bring home the trophies.

Modified "Mary" by using rings instead of a pullup bar 6 rounds, 5 HSPU, 10 pistols

I went with "Mary" cuz I need work on pullups. Dont have a pullup bar so I did the pullups on my rings. The HSPU were cake, the pistols weren't that bad, but after getting the first 15 pullups on the rings the first round, I had to break them up quite a bit. On the last couple of rounds, I was even throwing a little bit of a kip in there.

First post. Been doing crossfit for about six weeks and my garage is looking very gym like.

Decided to go for Mary instead of Cindy but it became very apparent after the 3rd set of pullups that I wasn't going to last. Switched to 10's. HSPU's weren't a problem, Pistols squats will leave me crippled for a few days. Got 12 rounds scaled. 3 legit and 9 modified.

Thanks. Loving this stuff.

400M Run
Modified CFWU x 2 (KB swings, L-PUs, crunches, dips, sampson stretch)

Last time we did 20 rounds of Cindy so this time we mixed it up a bit.

"M-indy" or "Cin-ary" ?
5 HSPU
10 Pull-Ups
15 Squats

12 rounds + 5 HSPUs

This really sucked in all of the best, most painfully fun ways!

did K2Es and Push-ups after as well as some additional pullups. Helping a newby learn the kip...

Still working on pistols... not quite ready to incorporate into an intense workout. Maybe a true Mary next time.

I don't know if anyone is still reading this far down the page, but does anyone else think "Murph" is not the same as "Cindy" x20?

When I did Murph a couple of weeks ago I did all the pullups, then all the pushups, then all the squats, which took way longer than doing 20 Cindy's would.

I would think that the WOD would prescribe "20rds for time" if you were supposed to break it up that way.

Comment #269 - Posted by: olypt57 at May 15, 2008 11:22 AM

Alex, it clearly states to "partition as needed." That means, if you want to break them up into Cindyx20, go for it. If you want to do all 100, then 200, then 300, that's your call too. I think "partition as needed" is pretty clear.

Definitely an improvement. I got a friend of mine to hit the workout with me, and we were neck-and-neck the whole time. For me, the pushups were the bottleneck, but my friend banged 'em out no problem. On the other hand, I blew past him using kipping pullups while he struggled with normal pullups. I tried to teach him a kip afterwards but decided it would be better to just show him the videos.

Another example of crossfit targeting weaknesses...

We'll be playing with Mary later tonight after the kids go to bed. We went to the gym and opted to work on our max load for bench.

CFWU x 2
TODD: (first time heavy since shoulder replacement) warm up 135 x 10 x 2;
185, 215, 225, 245

ALISHA: warm up 65 x 15;
95, 115, 135, 135, 135, 135 (Todd had to touch the bar through my one inch sticky point otherwise I had it easy--argh!!)

we finished with bench press drills through our weak spots and a 500 m row, damper 7 (T)1:52 (A)2:02--I couldn't stay on when I was going at the 1:50 pace! I slide all over the place--any tips besides bringing out the duct tape! :)

Did something a little different today.
1.5 mile run w/ 15 lb vest

Modified Cindy
w/ 15 lb vest.
Do 10 rounds as fast as possible - 9:09

Then ran 4 miles w/o vest.

Next time I'll just do as Rx'd and shoot for 20+. My hands just couldn't handle that many pull ups today after the 120 three days ago and dls yesterday.

Maybe could have done a round or 2 more, but first time doing the workout, paced myself at 1 round per minute, pretty tired afterwards.

20 rounds with 9 seconds remaining.

20min later...still shaking.

Anyone doing the East Coast Challenge in Albany??

Comment #319 - Posted by: Bill From NJ at May 15, 2008 12:57 PM

Me: 41yo/M/5'10"/179lbs

Warm Up: Greg A's Warm Up - Pull Ups and Dips

WOD: Mary 9 Rounds + 5 HSPU, 10 one legged squats and 6 Pull Ups.

HSPU: From Full Extension at the top to head on four 5lb plates (about 4 inches) at the bottom. All sets unbroken

One legged Squats: From open hip at the top to A to A at the bottom. All sets unbroken.

Pull Ups: Kipping, palms facing away. From chin over the bar to elbows almost locked at the bottom. First set unbroken remaining sets broken into 10&5 / 6,5,4 / or 5,5,5.

Today, I wanted to get 10 rounds of Mary and I fell short by 9 pull ups (which I completed after the time expired). HSPU were the easiest exercise and it is time that I pull another 5lb plate off of the stack leaving me with three 5lb plates to rest my head on at the bottom. My leg pistols felt strong and I have a good technique to string them together. Pull ups take the longest by far and probably account for at least 10 minutes. Next time I would like to do at least three rounds of unbroken sets of pull ups. After I get ten + rounds of Mary, I'm going back to Cindy until I can get 20 + rounds, I think :>)

My lady Lysa did 16 + rounds of Cindy today and a majority of her pull ups were on the pull up bar un-assisted (only a couple of jumping) very nice baby, you are looking awesome, yeah me!

Have Fun, Train Hard,

Billy

Mary-6 rounds plus 15 reps front squat at 55lbs(50%)BW after each round, so probably could've done more, but hey, I'll try again next time!

No heads, 6-8 inches off our arms?? I dont know if ill agree with you there, haha..I think ill give up a little bit of time on crossfit rather then be headless..

cindy x 16 rounds....dead hang pullups though, I am so used to having to start over on a set of pullups if i kicked a little that I can't get myself to do it mentally...ohhh well, pry for the best..
