This should be a good work out. Perfect follow up after today's WOD. Thanks!
It seems like I say this every time, but, ouch.
Thank you coach for the novel work outs, we are really enjoying them here in the Pacific Northwest! Tomorrow is going to rock...
Have Fun, Train Hard,

billy #4-
where about in the pnw are you? enjoying this wonderful summer weather? one would think it is november not june here in seattle.
;-)
what about 120 burpee pull ups?
Train Hard, Fight Easy...
No Doubt Nadia, My lady Lysa and I are over here in Silverdale Washington with about 20 other CFers soaking up the sun. I had my winter Outdoor Research jacket on today, jeez, where is the global warming, I need a dose of that stuff here :>)
The editing on the video was outstanding, very nice!
Have Fun, Train Hard,
Billy
It was 86 here today in Redding, Ca
What a killer! I can't wait!

If you are a machine it is faster [no transition]
Coach,
I just wanted to say thank you for the great workouts. I really enjoyed getting to redeem myself with a heavier yet still quality squat clean today (117# as opposed to 87# which I used on the last squat clean workout). My technique and my performance are improving each workout. Again thank you.
Gonna run out of breath on this one yeah..
Nice video editing! It's low high 80's here in SoCal.
I'm starting to think that 135#'s is the weight to be. I think about 50% of us, are or have thought about, trying to beat Speal's time on some of the WOD's. He's greased lightning!
Billy, I thought that was you. I was the "old fart" in the NAVY t-shirt, subbing the workout at Bangor. Good job, you impressed the young MARINES with the muscle-ups/squat clean and the HSPUs tonight. Semper Fi, Stan K.
Skeletor, we are completely jealous up here :>)
Have Fun, Train Hard,
Billy
#7 PE,
I concur. Can we do this like the GI Jane WOD?
#14 if your scared....geta dog!
Stan, comment 19,
I saw you, now that I think of it. I was completely oblivious. Its funny how you get when you have your crossfit brain on :>) The next time I see you, I promise to introduce myself. Did you see my lady, Lysa, doing the same workout? She finished about ten minutes before I started. She is much more fun to watch then me :>)
Have Fun, Train Hard,
Billy
Saturday's workout, think it is okay to do cleans without bumper plates?
Sunday musings...
1) Gotta love the early WOD postings. Thanks, Lauren!
2) Also gotta love Kempie jumping in with Newbie advice each day. I look forward to it; I'm sure he will answer each question already asked.
I've got dibs on the duty for January. Who's got next?
3) Shameless plug. Have you been checking out the Crossfit Games link on the right side of the Main Page? You know, just because it's kinda cool and all. That's all.
And no, Mom, I really haven't been drinking EVERY night. Not really. Nope.
4) Skip. As in a record album that skips and keeps playing the same note/word over and over (an album is a piece of vinyl that people would run a needle over to make sound come out of a speaker...). As in I really don't have anything new to muse over, so...
I'll see you next week...
Good video... good music.
Love the workouts, keep them coming. The pullups and burpees will be nice after today.
It is going to be 97 in PA on today. Hydrate baby...
86 in Ca huh? must be nice. i was running in 99 here in SC
Love these new WOD's... thanks Coach and Lauren!!!
So my fiance is doing these with me and she has a hard time doing all the pullups.. Any suggestions to help?
Thanks for putting the time into creating the new WODs...we appreciate it.
Comment 29 Joe
Where in SC do you live?
Loving this one its my 2 fav exercises
#31 MMATyler
Jumping pull ups or negatives ( jumping up and then slowly comming back down off the bar) are always a good sub. I know multiple jumping pullups really get me smoked, especially on a WOD that incudes burpees.
Hope that helps.
#31
jumping pullups or maybe gravitron (or similar) machine
my fiancee likes the jumping pullups
I would like to give a shout out for the PacWest. PacWest rocks. Born and raiesed in Seattle before moving east to Missoula, Mt. Just started cf about a month ago and I believe I'm in better shape now than I was training for the Couer D' Alene marathon. Thanks Crossfit for keeping me going.

Ugh...Mr. Burpee's always looking to reschedule a visit for me from Mr. Pukie. Can't wait.
Damn dude this sounds nuts! Time to get get worked again by coach! Aloha everyone.
Did not time this one. I still suck at OLY movements and went slower to work on form.

Sorry. Posted in wrong day
Did Wednesday's WOD today.
Complete as many rds in 20 minutes as you can:
15 Pullups
30 Pushups
45 Squats
4 Rounds plus 15 pullups, 30 pushups & 5 Squats
Those of you that did the 8, 9 & 10 rounds are some type of animals, with lungs of a marathon runner!

Burpees were great all unbroken but pullups were rubbish. Again too many rests between pullups. Need to master the butterfly and soon......
What a great WOD for a Sunday, with Summer here it's a perfect backyard hit. I'm predicting that it's gonna sound like a circus out there in CF land today, what with all the clowns coming to visit
I'll get to answering the unasked in a sec but let's cover the early risers questions first.
Sure you can do 120 burpee pull-ups if you want but that's not the WOD Coach posted. Doesn't really matter but just be clear they are different workouts.
Jumping pull-ups would be one way to go for this WOD and would certainly get you a huge met-con hit. On the other hand, what are you doing to acquire full pull-ups - or more of em? In the long run your best bet will be to follow the scaling and progressions at BrandX.
Lots of places use burpees as a mode of "attitude adjustment" so most of us have a rough idea what they are. However burpees vary.
The standard CF burpee involves a full chest to deck push-up and a jump with overhead clap. If you're feeling virtuous try and land flat footed as you jump in from the press-up, setting yourself up into a good squat position before you jump up.
Pull-ups - kip them if you can. Otherwise just get them done as fast as you can.
Cheers, kempie

All sets unbroken, burpees as recommended by kempie #44, all kipping pullups, full ROM.
Started doing crossfit about a week ago. Just wondering what kind of warm up you guys normally do?
Morning Kempie-thanks for the help with the trapeze bar.
#46 - Check the FAQ for the CrossFit Warm-up. Probably a good idea to go light on your press-ups and pull-ups though. Some rowing, skipping or the Burgener warm-up wouldn't be a bad idea.
Miles, no bother mate. Have fun with 'em.
Cheers, kempie
Thanks for the info Kempie
Anyone know where the word "burpee" came from? I assume it has something to do with burping? Kempie?
Christin - I would assume it got it's name the same way golf did. All the really good swear words were already taken!
Cheers, kempie
GI Jane is one of my favourites, so this should be just as fun... I hope..
I thinks its mad that, we all will all be doing the same workout but in different parts of the world...

not nice to do with a hangover....at least all the crew will be feeling the same after the barbie last nicht

15:49
Last 2 rounds of pull-ups were jump-pulls
15:31 - kipping pullups and burpees with pushup and lateral jump over 12"x12" bag to maintain jump honesty. No breaks on pullup rounds; breaks of 6, 3 and 3 for the burpees. My goal was to have the first break never be less than 6 reps.
Long warmup before doing WOD; yesterday's groin pull not a factor until the last rounds.

Go to the affiliates page link on the main page. Then scroll down to SC. There is a list of all the CF located in SC.
Bingo- good video. How goes your prep work? Your wife must love helping you train for the games!
Suh-WEET vid - good-lookin' guys, thumping tune...NOW I'm motivated, although my BURPEES may turn into BARFEES as I cleaned out the oreo-chocolate pudding whipped cream dessert left over in the fridge from yesterday's shift....

37/F/125 - 19:05 rx. I was a little disappointed with my time. This wod is definitely easier on paper than in reality!
great workout. 51 min. not including 1.5 miles of intervals before and after.

I need to learn how to do the snake pull-ups. The kipping pullups take too much time. I also do not know why I don't start working out early in the morning or late in the afternoon. I seem to always workout around noon in south florida. Its like a sauna out there and I am always sucking air by the second round. Hopefully my stupidity or hardheadedness will help me in the long run.
Thanks Coach!
Is anyone familiar with any of the South Florida affiliates? Such as Weston, Plantation, or Miramar.
Lighter WOD today. Only did 5 rounds.

I think lack of consistency is really hurting me. I missed all of last week due to a business trip. The burpees killed me.
Finished the fifth round at 11:00 flat, then had to move on due to back problems during the burpees. I'm going to continue with some back stretching exercises to try to pull thinks back into shape.
20:41 as rx'd
Burpees touched a 1' target
Kipping pull ups unbroken
wow, what a fabulous world of suck!

It has been over 100 degrees everyday for the last week here in Afghanistan. The extra heat is making us extra tough as we continue to work hard during the WODs. We have about 15 people doing Crossfit in our JOC compound. Everyone, keep up the good work.
Two days ago we had a JOC Crossfit competition.
3 rounds for time of:
100ft of walking lunges (knee to ground)
50 air squats
25 back extensions
We did the competition in 2 person teams, the second person couldn't start until the first person has completed their 3 rounds.
1st place - 1SG Nash/CPT Floyd 21:01
2nd place - CPT Ellett/CPT Anderson 21:30
3rd place - CPT Jones/CPT Wright 21:32
- 1SG Thomson/mystery partner 21:32
5th place - MAJ Meeker/RP2 Lee 22:55
6th place - CJ7
The winner gets to hold the coveted Black Dragon trophy until our next competition on 21 June. The Black Dragon command team will continue to work hard to keep the trophy.

Oops, did Pull Ups, then Burpees...well, almost as Rx'd - 27:58
19:07 as prescribed. All pullup sets unbroken, which was one of my goals here. After first two rounds, burpee sets broken, usually after the 7th or 8th burpee. My arms are fried.
I did Cindy this morning, took dog and g/f to nearby elementary school. Wore out the dog first then convinced my Jessica to engage Cindy with me. This school has great pull-up bars! Well, without any further delay I managed to put up 15 rounds and she stuck 10 rounds complete and then 5 jumping pull-ups, 10 modified push-ups and 13 squats. I was impressed. The workout for today does sound like fun, but I couldn't convince her of the glory that we know as 'The Burpee.' So have fun all of you! Oh by the way, this means Cindy was done outside in the am sun, it was already 80 degrees! New conditions for the workout but also a new pr! Thanks Coach.

It took me 48:56 to get that far but I was doing real pullups with no assist (best I could do was sets of 4) so that slowed me down.

My friend and I raced and he beat me by a minute. He was quite impressed by the whole crossfit thing. So there were two of jumping around and gathering open stares from the other people at lifetime.
I love crossfit.
I'm really looking forward to doing this one tomorrow. This week I realized my left hand was hurting a little bit and I figured it was the combination of Olympic lifts and my severe lack of flexibility. It turns out now I have a bump on the back of my hand which, I think, is a ganglion cyst. Has anyone else had that problem? Does it come from hyperflexion/extension?
Thanks.

Looking forward to seeing Jay #128 post his number for today with video for verification.

pulled the plug at 30 minutes with 8 rounds done. unwisely tried to get the workout in between other obligations, wasted too much time on a lazy warmup. I was cooked anyway, started to break up the pullups in the 7th round.
I'll second that Bingo, I'm as eager as you to see the results.
Perhaps we are all waaaaay out of shape, compared to Jay that is.
only had 30 minutes and got 8 rounds in....wasn't feeling it today...way to hot here in southern NC
Jay Comment 128, throwin down the gauntlet...
Let's see, I'll give you 12 minutes, because you said, 10 to 12 minutes is what it should take a normal guy like yourself. That's only one round every 1:12. Please bring a video camera for your WOD today and post it to Youtube under "wildly underestimated the WOD"

I notice you didn't post a time for the wod. Did you actually do the workout? It's easy to look at a wod, and say "I could do that in x amount of time" but when you actually get down and start doing it, it usually turns out to be a different story.

made it halfway before I just had to stop. It wasn't so much the work, which was tough. but its around 90 degrees here and the humidity is off the charts. Combine that with a stuffy garage gym with no AC and I'm sweating buckets. Getting into my eyes, getting on my hands and affecting my grip. It got to the point of towelling off every minute or so and it was just ridiculous. Time to invest in some under armour lol. Gonna make this up on the off day.

Burpees: Most sets unbroken but slow. Focused on bringing my feet from the push up position to feet flat and hands in front in one motion. Jumped about six inches on each burpee.
Pull Ups: All Kipping. First few sets unbroken and then broke sets into 8 and 4. I was using a pull up bar that rolled freely, nice...

There is a link to Turkish Get Ups in the Exercise and Demo's section. Its a fun kick in the nuts.
28:19
burpees unbroken
pullups broken on rounds 6-10
Turkish gets ups are fun to do. Start off with Dumb bells or kettle balls, if those are easy try the same weight using a regular 45lb bar. My best is 75lbs with the regular 45lb bar switching hands at the top. Fun stuff! The looks at the gym are worth it!

1st workout after taking about 2 wks off with a back injury...looking forward to getting back
WOD modified to 10 rounds of 8 burpees and 8 pull-ups on gravitron set at 150.
Time: 27:45
Great work out did it before breakfast.
All burpies slapping well above a bar 8" above my reach.
18:04
tried pacing myself with 20 second breaks between each round. burpies in sets of 6 with a few breaths between and about 10 or so breaths before the pull ups. Been working on my buterfly and didn't have to break up the first 5 sets then did 6 and 6 on the 6th, 7th and 8th 6,3,3 on the 9th and all the way through the final.
might have been able to push myself a bit harder in the middle sets.

I think it was the 3rd or 4th round, switched to jumping pull-ups, could not even pull myself up to get 1 at a time. I can reach the bar on my tip-toes, so just used one of those step lids, which is only 4" high, still had to pull quite a bit with the jump for each one to get above the bar.

RE: Christina, #101, a dude from CF Oahu went to Ninja Warrior. I think he made it to the very final round, and IIRC it was more like a bad stroke of luck that ended his campaign.
* * * *
This was the first time I've had a bad rip (hand, from PU) since I started CF. (Bc of extra sweat from the heat)
I poured salt on the rip because I thought I had read in the CF Journal that pouring salt on it feels like lilting breeze tickling your carefree naked backside as you frollick in the green hills with Julie Andrews and scent of lilacs swirling with smiling butterflies in the sunshine and little kittens licking milk off your toes and purring while Amelie gently caresses heroine into your armpits -- but I must have been confused, because it didn't feel like that.

Lots of breathing. Need to get more fluid w/kip. Nostrils and upper respiratory tract def. felt the burn after this one. Thanks Coach!
Todays diet:
1.2l vanilla icecream
150gr chocolate saus
2-300gr peanuts
100gr cashew nuts
75gr chocolate chip cookies
0.5l fanta orange
Needless to say this shit was horrible. Add that diet with four "vannblemmer", pullup bar which is a 2"x8" plank with shart edges, this sucked even more. Had to quit on the fourth round, after 6 pullups. Not even tape could stop the blodstream from my "blemmer", and cant leave bloodstains all over the house either. So, I'll just take a good long jog outside, 20degrees celsius at 23:51 in Hamar, Norway (longer north than Greenland southernmost point) is just remarkable.

I ran 2 miles today for the first time in about a year. Last year I ran it in 16+ felt like shit during and after with real tight legs. This time I did it in sub 14 maintained good pace felt real good, enough to sprint hard at the end. I just kept my focus on my feet spending less time on the ground and pulling them up quickly. I could not hear my feet. Never felt better running that kind of distance. No tight legs at all and that happens every time without fail. Also my murph time was 35 mins, first mile in 6:25. that's almost what I maintained over the two miles. This shit is cool. Thanks for showing me the way brotha. Gotta get much better at it still but its a start. Look forward to havin you guys come back out here. Easily the best cert I've been to! Peace brotha.

#288, Bull, you don't break up Angie.
Today I did a Tabata Something Else head-to-head with Mr Corson with pleasing results. I managed 438 but the real story was how I felt after. Reps were 97, 75, 110, 154.
I tentatively call this a PB for me although it's the first time I anchored the sit-ups so I got quite a few more reps there. That being said, I didn't stop on the sit-ups which is more work overall. Pull-ups started well but I didn't maintain, push-ups were what they always are, and the squats were good but could have been better. Today the engine was at full capacity it was just the muscular fatigue that forced me to stop when I did. After my last set I didn't collapse on the floor so I learned today there is room for more effort next time.
And if anyone is interested, Rob kicked my butt in a big way. 498 is no joke, nice work, buddy.

Pull-ups unbroken til round 7...burpees broken after round 1 but rallied more towards the end (probably more rested from PU breaks)

So much for the plan. It was a high 90s and humid day again in NY, so I waited until 2030 and jogged over to the playground. Hit start on the cell phone's timer and dropped it to start the burpees. Cell phone has an auto power-saving screen shut-off function, so after a few seconds, I had no clock to pace myself from.
So, with just a towel on the ground and a monkey bar, I broke everything into 4s and tried not to rest too much, When I dropped from the last pull-up, staggered to the phone and found the stop button, I was shocked!
The clock read 20'02" (as Rx'ed with kipping pull-ups and burpee push-ups chest down every time and at least a 6" jump with hands overhead). I'm happy with that.

McDonald's it turns out is not good fuel. Working on too little sleep. Did workout later in the day than usual. Sunday night after Everett lifting seminar. PR'd in the clean and jerk today with 90kg. Attempted and came close on 95 and 100kg, finish the jerk.
Feeling sick after five rounds. Thought about quitting after 7. Still not fully hydrated either after being sick for most of previous week.

I prepared for this workout by spending the weekend with the brother- and father-in-law "working" on the cottage in the Quebec countryside near Maniwaki. Said "work" involved reaching deep into the lake to pull cold bottles of beer from the bottom interspersed with the fixing of valves, hoisting of anchors, sweeping of decks, flipping of steaks and pulling of wine corks.
I should have gotten a sub-20-min number on this workout. Not even close. I do not recommend my workout preparation for peak WOD performance.
More better faster

Not sure if I fully understand the question, but are you talking about the exercise called "thrusters"? That might be what you are looking for, they are in a bunch of different WODs....if that didn't answer your question at all sorry, but thats pretty much what a thruster is, a front squat followed by an overhead press in a fluid motion...

As Rx'd, 39:55. My goal was 36:00 to 40:00, so I barely made it.
But here's the thing: When I first started Crossfit training in January, I could barely do three good pullups. When I first started, I used the assisted pullup machine, all the way up to 70 pounds worth of help.
These days, I might be slow after the first few sets of pullups, but I don't need an assist.
The transformation continues ...

This is one of the few exercises that has made me feel very sick. It only takes a while to disperse though.

sub'd jumping pullups
M/29yo/5'10/200ish
4 rounds instead of 10
15 min
No energy, no motivation, no drive. I stopped a lot in between sets, and adding insult to a crappy workout my reconstructed knee started flaring up during the blurpees as I was apparently compressing the back of the knee too much and it reminded me I don't have much cartilage left there.
All in all - sucked. Tomorrow is another day.
36:53
jumping pullups, burpees to knees after 1st round. fought asthma and pukie from round 4 on.
ck
23:07 i think for 10 rounds, did one extra just in case i miscounted--so, 10 or 11 rounds in 24:57
i hate burpees more and more.
35:50 as rx'd
pullups are still my weakness, can kip but can't chain 2 or more together, have to dead-hang between each one.
How do I train to increase my pull-up strength. I am currently struggling to do one set of 8.
Time was limited, so I did 10 minutes of burpies (75).
M/ 34/ 134 lbs/ 5'-6"
10 rounds As Required. Total time: 8:12
that's total exercise time. Each round was 48-51 seconds.. most were 49. I took about 1 minute rest between rounds.. at the last two rounds I took about 90-120 secs rest between rounds. I am really sick, so I needed that for my breath. I have been hacking up a lot lately... I know too graphic. Well, I posted a question a while back about what the OFFICAL REQUIREMENTS are for rest time between rounds. I assume that the times that people are posting is their workout time and not a continuously running clock. If I'm wrong, then when it's written a number of rounds, does that mean a continuously running clock and see how fast you can do the number of rounds. Also, please someone clarify what a normal rest between rounds is. I want to do everything as Required officially so I'm able to gauge myself by the CrossFit standards... if I'm not, then my numbers are very insular and not able to be compared really. Thanks and I'll check back for responses.
Keep on keepin on.
M/ 34/ 134 lbs/ 5'-6"
I thought that I'd mention that my results were the first time I tried using the butefly pullups. They are definitely faster. I obviously really don't have them mastered, but the general motion is a lot faster and I think it's a little easier on your rotater/ shoulder in that you're not kind of over extending that.

#594 Kirk - try this: grab a pullup bar with one hand in either pullup or chinup position, then grAB your wrist with the other hand and pull up. This will work your grip something fierce. Also using a thicker (i.e. 2"+) pull up bar will help.
39:40
last 3 rounds had to do 1-2 pullups at a time
#597 Anton
With a workout of the day like this (as with a majority of the WODs), you wanna keep the clock running the whole time, and limit your rest. Some people might not rest at all, some people might be taking a minute or 3 minutes before they start their next set, which explains the big discrepancy between different people's times. The constantly running clock is the thing that builds intensity, and it also makes it simpler, you are just focused on getting rep after rep done, and not how much rest you have left before you begin again. So pretty much any instance where it says "post your time", it is talking about your total time, working out and rest included. Hope that helps, best of luck to ya....

As Rxd:
34:25 = same!
Finaly owned kipping chin ups but i had to break often and long during the burpees. They ruined me! Also this time reflects a continuos clock from start to finish. Thought I was going to die though!

Group workout with brother and sister; sister's first WOD!
Short warmup - 112 degrees at 12:00pm takes care of most of the "warm" aspect.
Sister did jumping pull-ups and burpees on the knees -- 5 rounds and had to call it a day.
Time: 37:54
Made it through 7 fast, and hit a brick wall from 8 on. Heat didn't help. Nice WOD
