Merry Christmas all, Let's gets some!
Merry Christmas....
There is some gawd awefulness in the simplicity of this workout...
get some!
Gotta do it friday, no pullup bar at the house. Merry Christas all, thanks for the dedication.
No hero workout? I'm confused. Merry Christmas Crossfit World
Big Love to David, Jeremy and Gillian.
Other than that... Bah Humbug. I'll be Merry when Friday rolls around.
Perfect WOD considering my gym and probably every other gym in the world will be closed.
Merry Christmas everyone!
MERRY CHRISTMAS ALL
Thanks Crossfit for adding some spice and variety to our phys training from Brit Army Commandos in Lashkar Gah, Afghanistan
Nice posters in the background...
oh joy, just had my christmas turkey and feeling pretty full.
oh well better go and do it.
oh yeah Merry Christmas everyone.
those are some nice HSPU, not like those people who spread out there arms 100 degrees+ so that they only have a couple of inches to move
Oh Merry Christmas. My hands and grip are still sucking from Eva.
Merry Christmas to Coach, Lauren and all!
luckily the gym in my town is open 365 days, 24 hours!
Dang...I thought we would get this day off...lol..well...drive on...get r dun!!
Bring in on!
Merry Christmas Crossfit World!!
Christmas musings...
Want what you have. Think about it. Today is a day of giving. How much easier to focus on giving if all you want yourself is what you already have.
It's tempting at all times, but particularly at this time of the year, to give in to jealousy, to want some of that which others have. To have some of their blessings, whatever they may be. I don't want the blessings of others. I am happy for their blessings. I don't want their's because my blessings are on the way.
I don't need the blessings that others enjoy. I am happy that their needs are so amply filled. I don't need their's because my blessings are on the way.
Thank you, Greg and Lauren, for this gift that you have given to me, given to all of us here at the Crossfit table.
May your blessings, and those of the entire Crossfit family, be on the way.
Merry Christmas.
Darrell
Sweet video, great work Gillian!
Happy Holiday s everyone!
I'm new to CF. I was wondering if you have to do all 100 of each exercise at once for "Angie" or could you split it into sets? For example, could you do 10 pullups, 10 pushups, 10 situps, 10 squats: x10?
Merry Christmas
Good thing this workout doesn't require weights, because I have to do it at a park or somewhere else because my gym is closed tomorrow.
#17
Yeah you dont move on to Push ups until you are done with the Pull ups..and so on...but as you say you could do 10 sets of 10 reps of every thing or 5 sets of 20 reps.
Merry Christmas to everyone....
its a christmas miracle!!!!!! gotta love angie
#17 gotta go straight through. cant start pushups tell you get all the pullups. good luck

Brandon, try to complete all the pull ups before push ups and etc etc. I broke up the sets the first time I did this and found out I wasn't suppose too.
Merry Christmas all CrossFitters!
well....my pullup bar at home is outside....so....this should be...interesting
Can't wait!
Merry Christmas CrossFit family.
Bingo, once again, you said it bro.
Coach & Lauren, a million thanks... It's been way too long,
I hope this finds everybody doing well. I Pray all will have a blessed Christmas & 2009.
Merry Christmas & God bless!
Get some, Go again!

Other than that everything else was Rx'ed:
Time: 10:40.
Merry Christmas!
Been at this for over a year now and am so thankful for the impact it has had on my life and everyone around me.
Coach and Lauren, you guys do good work!
My new year's resolution will be to make it to multiple certifications and meet all you Crossfit superstars at the Games this year!
Much Love.
Merry Christmas all! Sure will be fun having a visit from pukie on Christmas! 3..2..1..Go!
As someone who teaches tumbling, I must admit I love the vid. My type of workout!
Merry Christmas!

I'm still dead from Eva. I really think i'm going to start to live in fear of seeing eva and murph posted. I think crossfit games 2009 should be morning Eva, afternoon Murph and that's it. Total lowest time wins. Last murph mile up and back on that hill? it doesn't get any worse than that.
Very Impressive work Gillian!
Beautiful legs on that woman! Merry Christmas!
Angie completed @ 22 Minutes 02 seconds.
Enjoy the holidays.
Wow and after a painful backsquat day.
Darrell you said it best bro. Tis the season for giving... Give It All You Got!!!!!
Merry Christmas! Thank you for the gift of CrossFit!
I'm envious of those hspu's.
Looks like I picked a good time for rest week! Day 2...
Merry Christmas!!
Haha, of course the Christmas one would be as intense as hell.....
:)
Merry Christmas to all the CrossFit family and friends. We will be opening the gym for the hardcore who want to trudge through 2' of new snow to do "Angie".
Workout on Christmas!? .. that's not right.
But Santa, I've been good all year! What's up with Angie under my tree?
No Angie for me...to busy with the family. I'll have to do her later.
Fantastic Gillian! We are all so happy to have you on the team at CFSBK.
Nice camera work Dan!
Oh nice!
This will be made up on the "rest day" along with the back squats later on in the day. Perfect :)
With a vid like that and a couple workouts that I can put together...it truly must be Christmas.
AllisonNYC and Gillian are my motivation for practicing handstands. That's what i'll do tomorrow! (or actually today now).
Merry Crossfit-mas everyone!! :)
Merry Christmas to all! I hope Santa brings you all you want for a Crossfit Christmas.
Merry Christmas to all! Hope Santa brings you all you want for a Crossfit Christmas.

Perfect, right down to the spots I see during a workout. This work out gives me a reason to push it to the next level.
Positive things happen to people who push past the pain.

Way to go Gillian, impressive beyond words! You appear to do with ease a combination of movements that are impossible for most.
Mac
Wow! Gillian that was awesome. You've been threatening to do that WOD for a while, I'm glad it came out so well. So impressive. :)
Merry Christmas, Coach & Lauren & everybody!
Wow! Thank you for sharing that with us, Gillian. I can't wait to show people, and it's awesome just to see for myself. THAT is how you maintain a solid lordotic curve and nail "the set" for every deadlift throughout a workout! Just beautiful.
Happy Holidays to all.
Hey, at least its not Murph under our tree...Merry Christmas everyone!
Using the Christmas holidays as my extended rest break for the year. Taking about 10 days completely off to let everything fully heal up and recharge my batteries to battle hard in the New Year. Day 5 of no workouts and I feel sluggish and slow but I know in the long run it will be good for me. Merry Christmas everyone!
Thanks to Greg and Lauren, all the HQ staff, my Basic Barbell cert staff, Burg, Tucker, Jeff Martone, the Martins, MacKenzie, Robb Wolf, Kelly Moore, Lynne, Stef, and all of you for making this year one of the best of my life. Good Yule to you all.
Rip
God bless all. Please remember all of the troops that are overseas and their families that are left back to take care of the kids.
Look, I like the Christmas Jesus best, and I'm sayin' grace... Happy birthday baby Jesus!
God bless our troops, keep em safe
Off all week recovering from a nasty cold. Looking forward to getting my energy back so I can get back at it!
The CrossFit experience has been fantastic. What an amazing community!
Thanks Coach and Lauren for the gift of CrossFit, which I happened upon in February of 2008.
Merry Christmas to all!
Nice deadlifts, Gillian. Merry Xmas to all.
Merry Christmas to all and to all a goodnight.

Remember, chocolate is a good thing!!!
merry xmas all you fellow crossfitters from all down here in australia. hope its a great day and a safe festive season.
For tens of thousands of years, we've celebrated with traditions of generosity to friends and loved ones, to bring health and joy during the darkest period of the year. I feel like I'm always on the receiving end of this generosity from CrossFit.
I want to say thanks to everyone involved in CrossFit, and especially to Coach who started it all. It was this virtual community that first drew me in and gave me a new direction for a lifelong passion. I love what all of you have created, and I'm thankful to be a part of it.
Merry Christmas.

Thanks for my present, Coach! I've been doing CF since 3 December and have made great progress so far. I can't wait to see the progress I've made when I'm wishing everyone a Merry Christmas in 2009!!
Oh, and to all of you with your support the troops messages, THANK YOU!!!! It is incredibly difficult to be separated from our families, especially at this time of year. Knowing that there are "regular" people out there that support and think of us does make it a little bit easier. May God bless you and your families!

First off, Gillian, awesome!!! Such an amazing and inspiring vid. Good luck to all today, whether it's a WOD day, cheat day, or both (as I am going to partake in). Get some on "Angie" and then get some on Xmas dinner!!! No Zone tonight:) Be safe all and have a great holiday season...
This is an ironic WOD alright. Merry Xmas to all the community.
Awesome work, Gillian. That was sweet. Next time throw in a pirouette with every handstand push-up. ;) Make it really, really dizzy Dianne.
Gillian is a mixture of feminine elegance, athletic skill, and raw power. Truly amazing.
Merry Christmas Everybody!

This was my first day doing cross fit, and it kicked my a** but it felt great.
time: 33:13
I cant believe there are guys out there doing this in half the time I just did it. That is beyond impressive. I'll keep it up and get there too.
Merry Christmas, thank you for all you do and for inspiring us to be stronger, fitter, better people. Peace to you all, work hard and revel in your pain, never quit. D
some Merry Christmas.....
Merry X-Mas to all. Today is my rest day and I will be back at it tomorrow.
Have a great Holiday Crossfit World
Merry Christmas from Sahl Sinjar....
GOD bless you all and your loves ones. later
To my fellow CrossFitters:
May God bless you richly this Christmas. I love this community and for 2 yr have received so much from you that has made me and my family better humans physically, mentally, and spiritually. We CrossFit with several local families, all of whom have been to certs, and do not have a local affiliate, but because of all of you feel just as much a part of this family. Thank you all and Merry Christmas from South Carolina!
Bingo
You are so wise, thank you for all of your musings. I'm sure I won't be the first to say this, but let me know when your book gets published, you have such a way with words. Thank you.
Nick Wise
You always challenge me on rest days, and I believe I may have held my own one time....maybe. Merry Christmas to you and look forward to future dialogues here.
Freddy C
I've never met you but feel like I know you well from comments and videos. Thanks for the comic relief and good hearted fun. My wife and I still say you've got the greatest smile. Merry Christmas.
JroCK
Merry Christmas. You are definitely the most enthusiastic CrossFitter on the comments. I always look forward to your comments. I hope your little one is doing well, I know it made your Christmas all the more wonderful
AllisonNYC
Thanks for livening up the comments. Your candor and honesty are refreshing. My wife and I live vicariously through all of your travels. Keep the stories coming. Hope all is well and Merry Christmas.
Herm@LosAltos
You make the most generous and informative posts for all comers, especially newbies. You epitomize what makes this community so great.

Merry Christmas brother. May Christ dwell in you this Christmas and give you peace. Keep training hard.

Dude you give me so much grief for my passion for firearms and my Faith on rest days, but I really appreciate your civility and intellect. I hope your Christmas is awesome, and I'm praying that Christ will turn your heart to Him. Merry Christmas and get some.
Coach and Lauren
Words can't describe the gratitiude that my family, friends and I have for you guys. I'm 38, my wife is 36, and daughters, Maddie 8, Emma 5, Austin 3, and we look forward to our family Crossfit workouts to improve our health, fitness and to strengthen our family's integrity. I can honestly say, besides the obvious fitness benefits, it has made our family life sooo much better.....and that is something to be thankful for. We CrossFit.....because LIFE is a workout!! Merry Christmas and may God Bless you.

Great work Gillian and Dan R on the video!
Happy Holidays to Coach, Lauren, HQ staff and all the wonderful people we've met along the way. Lets all make 2009 CrossFit's best year to date!
"Jumping Angie" for me to keep shoulder happy:
100 second L-sit on parallettes
100 18" box jumps
100 anchored situps
100 lateral jumps over med balls, sandbags, luggage and parallettes
13:35
L-sits broken 40-20-20-10-10 second intervals while the master clock kept running (it takes two timers to do this workout)
Box jumps were tough as always....killed my time, but at least I didn't have any misses or near misses this time
Anchored situps not fast but unbroken
Lateral jumps over 10 obstacles of different heights and diameters....jumping to the right went well and usually unbroken, left side jumps terrible. I seem to have no idea what I'm doing when jumping to my left.
Regular Angie is much easier for me....I would rather do pullups and pushups than jumping!
Scaled to: 75 reps of each
15:58 (The Mrs. said that some of the squats where a little short towards the end :( Oh well.
50 pull-ups (black band, too-heavy)
50 sit-ups
50 knee push0ups
50 sit-ups
12:14
Janet f/49 jumping pu's, modified push-ups, ex-ball sit-ups
23:41
Scott m/48 jumping pu's, exer-ball sit-ups

Merry Christmas to all.

25:00 (I really need to work on my pull ups. Those took 15 min by themselves).
First week with CrossFit. Is this a calisthenic workout or do we add weight for the squats? Does it matter back or front?
Happy Holidays from The Coast Guard base in San Juan, Puerto Rico, where just about all the WODs take place outdoors, in the sun, the rain, the pool, the ocean, or (with all the bugs!) out on the soccer field.
Thank you to The Glassmans and all the contributors for their gifts throughout the year of science, technique, and improved health.

14:19- Merry Christmas everyone
#103 Michael-
This is designed as a calisthenic workout, bodyweight only. Weighted squats will be listed as either back squats or front squats to designate.
I wish everyone a very Crossfit Christmas. I got a dynamax ball this morning! I'm going to go do some wall shots in the cold.
Merry Christmas to the CrossFit Nation! Prayers and thoughts for all those in harm's way and their families. I am lucky enough to be with my family this year. Stay safe.
Angie, as Rx'd - 16:37 (PR)
Gillian - the salutes totally reminded me of the gymnastics cert and Coach Tucker's comments. Amazing work, my 5 yo daughter was impressed!
Someone made a comment on the HSPUs - Coach Tucker actually goes over this in his gymnastics cert....the form, you'll notice, is nearly the same as on shoulder presses - tight body, the hand and arm position and pushing the shoulders into the ears....this allows for transference between the SPs and HSPUs, so when you work on one, you work on the other. The body position - keeping a tight core, tight legs, allows for better body control, balance, and increased coordination. All and all, you'll have an increased economy of motion.
All this, and it looks a helluva lot better than an upside down space invader on the wall....not sure how functional that is....
Merry Christmas everyone! It's time to so spend my Rogue Fitness gift cards!

Cute video, and even with all those back flips, tumbles and handstand walks, she still puts up an awesome time!
Subbed jumping pullups. Had to use the rents' gold's gym thing and my step-dad is short so my elbows were slightly bent from start. Otherwise as rx'd: 20:09
I can't imagine how 100 pushups would have felt after 100 real pullups.. disappointed that I couldn't find that out today.

4:23 - pushups ~ 0:56 better than old PR pace
3:18 - situps ~ 0:21 better than old PR pace
2:34 - squats ~ 1:21 SLOWER than old PR
Warm up: 2000m Row
CFWU x 3 minus pull ups.
Wod: 17:50 as rx'd. FINALLY STARTED TO KIP!!!!
After about my 20th deadhang, I tried mimicking the kipping motion Ive seen on the endless amount of CFJ vids Ive watched. Magically, it just happened and I lost my Kipping virginity.
I pumped out about 20 in a row right after that (fatigue from the deadhangs). The feeling when you generate the power from your hips to get your chest to the bar is nuts. I was so pumped that I did another 30 when I was done the wod!
Merry Christmas everyone. Be safe and have fun!
No Angie for me today. Rest rest after long drives and still sore from getting my tail kicked by "Eva" at CROSSFIT MILFORD CT.
I will be heading to SECT CROSSFIT in Baltic CT tomorrow before heading back to the warmer weather! Rest now, a$$ kicking tomorrow, then homeward bound!
Merry Christmas Everyone!

What a Christmas present! I had the pleasure of hitting this WOD with MikeG, Tattoo Nicky, Jeannie, Will and Damon, and I have to say that having them there made a huge difference in my performance today! It was SO MUCH FUN! (and I don't usually say that about workouts!)
I want to sincerely thank those who took a special trip on Christmas Day just to visit CrossFit Rx: MikeG, from CrossFit Atlanta, Tattoo Nicky, from all over the place, and Jeannie, from Jeannie's Beach CrossFit - you guys rock!
Also, what better way to start a workout than a PR? It must have been the competitive atmosphere; I hit 25 consecutive pull-ups right at the beginning, a PR of 3 for me :)

Merry Christmas to all. May the joy and love of God Almighty fill your heart with His peace. He gave us a Savior, His one and only Son, so we could be spared from an eternity in Hell, and spend it with with Him in Heaven. A gift to mankind like no other.
Gillian,
You look absolutely beautiful, and poetically eloquent. Good job!
doing angie at fairhope,al on the beach!
First time date with her!
Merry Christmas (meaning "I wish you well on a day I consider special, whatever your belief about what it means") to all and thanks for making the CF community a good thing, a grand thing. Paul
#158/Brian - kipping is the default CF pullup; do kipping pullups unless otherwise specified, eg, L pullups, weighted pullups. Paul

No place to do pullups today as the gym is closed & I still need to buy a bar. Pullups would definitely have been what slowed me down the most. Did everything else: 100 pushups, 100 situps, 100 squats

So after all the gifts were opened, all the toys assembled, Christams breakfast completed and cleaned up, and the morning guests departed, I decided to give a go at "Angie" in my garage.(Pull Up bars installed at the end of summer)

BTW,
Was working yesterday and did Angie. Was hoping for a PR but didn't get it. My grip was toast from "McFlurry" the day before. 185# cleans wrecked me (I weight ~178), anyways, this WOD is always punishing.

Jay M. in SC - Thank You. I look forward to your posts as well. I've always enjoyed the friendship or whatever it is that I get from each of the frequent posters. Bingo and Jrock are two of my favorites as well. It would be cool to get everyone in the same room at the same time one day. But for now it's great meeting you all here.
I'll keep things interesting just for you and your wifey. I've got a good one up my sleeve so hold on to your seat. :P Merry Christmas to you and your family.
Major procrastination happening over here.
Goal is to do Angie minus the pull-ups and to do two things with the push-ups-
time the 100 and try to break the time I had before the stupid 50 day thing I did..
and see how many I can get unbroken while I'm fresh.
Now if I could only un-glue my little booty from this big cozy chair...

Thanks buddy! I hope you and your family have the best Christmas ever! My daughter is 3 this year. So this is the first year where she understood and anticipated the joy of Christmas. There is no greater joy than watching those you love most in this world truly enjoy themselves.

Merry Christmas to all of the Crossfitters. Thank you Coach and Lauren. God bless.

Full blown sit ups or a crunch?

first time for me....don't know how to "kip", so did alternating pullups/chinups in regular fashion.....the rest, I supose, was quite standard....too slow to check time....
hey can anyone tell me what Zone or Zoning is? new to crossfit and love it

THANKS for the compliment! My husband actually did video today with our new "Flip" video. I want to watch just to see exact technique and I think I did too many sit ups...but I hoofed down 3 chocolate covered peanut butter balls tonite as "reward"!
#266 Todd~
Zoning is a lifestyle change in eating habits in my personal opinion and it's ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC! Takes discipline and patience-especially the first 2 weeks I think. Go to zonediet.com. You eat in blocks of protein/carbs/fat. I have always been careful of my eating, but zoning took me to a different level-I started zoning June 23, 2008 (crossfitting April 12, 2008) and have seen great gains since starting crossfit and then adding Zone lifestyle eating.

My times in almost all WODs recently have been improving. The two factors I think are contributing to this is an increased fat intake (double to triple) and sticking to the 3 on 1 off routine.

Crapped out on the pull ups. I feel like the secret is to get into a good groove on the pull ups instead of working close to failure the entire time, especially when you have to crank out 100 push ups immediately afterward. I'm going to try and utilize the tabata protocol for the pull ups next time around. If I can do 100 pull ups in under 4 min without being too gassed, I'll be in good shape.
