Sounds Fun! Haven't done this one yet.
awesome!!!
yet... oh crap at the same time....
Wuh-wuh-wuh-wut?
Bringing back the old school so it seems lately! I'm game, this should be brutal and quick
JPW - Good job breakin it down for February!
That looks awful te wod I mean
that pic looks like the guy is imitating the michael jordan jumpman upside down
FYI--a standard basket ball court is 95' if i remember correctly
we had a WOD that called for 50' lunges w/ 45 lb i did a b ball court--looked it up when i got home and said OH SHIP--No P's includ
What the....
This and Jujitsu...Yay?
sweet video by the way!! I love when they cut the music as soon as they say something to the extent of "this one's a crossfitter" haha!
Awesome pic too!! I wanna do that
This is going to hurt so good!
B-ball court is 90'...but what's 5' among friends.
One of those "easy on paper" WODS...
Ahhh, it's going to be pain all the way... Goodbye quads, always remember that I loved you.
For the lunges, are we matching the feet in the middle (like right lunge, stand, left lunge, stand, etc), or just taking one LONG stride after another?
Hell yeah!
Seans, thank you for the correction yesterday.
I did not read well before I posted. But take it easy buddy. If you were to read a few posts down, I made fun of myself for my mistake. I am new to this...there will always be newbies to this wonderful site. And, more importantly, thank you to all my "defenders" yesterday. Y'all are understand. I see "hugs" on here a lot, so hugs back. Back in the old days, I used PLUR. Peace Love Unity and Respect. I see that here...
Day 19 post-op:
Upon waking, increased pain in the left shoulder. May have moved it wrong at night. My right shoulder is still sore from all of the activity with it in Washington State, so today I will be scaling back on the CF.com WOD (Heavy 1-arm DB Push Jerks) and focus on technique.
I think I nailed a good 1-arm CFWU! Check it out:
10 BW Squats
10 Walking Lunges
10 GHD Sit-ups
10 GHD Hip and Back Extensions
10 1-arm jump band pull-downs
10 1-arm kneeling dips (from same band)
Sweaty and generally warmed up from this. I felt ready to go after 5 rounds.
Re: Leo's Picture: 1-arm HSPU? Maybe that's something I can strive for!
Re: WOD: 2 out of 3 exercises I don't have to sub for, and for the pulls I will sub 1-arm pull-ups with a 100# assist on the gravitron. It looks very fun!
Gotta go hit my last round of PT before I sleep.
Doing it right - healing it up ONCE!
YAY I can go to bed at a decent hour. Thank you Lauren. This will be fun. Tomorrow @ 6am.
C'mon, hold on tight... Giddy-UP!

So I have the pleasure of working where I hit my WODs...upon reading today's WOD, I immediately got up from the desk, found a tape measure, and measured the length of the hallway where I do my lunges. Go figure, a perfect 25ft. Can't wait to hit this!
hey "mvmnt under fire in 2:11" guy, aren't you a CF level 1? I think you & I were at the same cert in W. Kentucky. I must say, personally i am a Bulldog fan down here in Starkville...GO STATE! However I give you & the Ole Miss program mad props for TANYA. I am in the army national guard in MS and to get these guys to do crossfit seems to be an act of congress. I have been working with the Miss. State Track Team, and some members of the Army ROTC here, and unbelievably the ROTC program has become the hardest to convince that Crossfit works. Good Luck in the program!
JJ- PLUR... nice. You're goin to fit right in. Welcome.
i think its funny: when i clicked compare to link, there were 44 total comments last time this came up. its cool to see how much Crossfit has grown
Good people sleep peacefully in their beds at night only because rough men stant ready to do violence on their behalf. GOD BLESS THE USMC.

YES! looks very fun. Should break a good sweat, get your ab muscles popping. Goodluck everyone!
Let's make it a little more difficult and do GHD sit-ups!
M/39/6'3/255#
My 1st thought was "wTF this WOD is long..." then I read it again.
Sh@t!
I missed today's WOD traveling. Every muscle fiber in my body will burn tomorrow, can't wait!
Have fun!
In regards to the pic, one day I too will be able to do the Luke Skywalker one arm handstand. I just need a small child to balance on my feet while I do it...
#25 Chris S.
I was thinking exactly the same thing!
This WOD is from way down in the vault! 2004! Should be fun....
Is there a CF standard for walking lunges?
Can your rear knee touch the floor or is that poor form? Both knees at 90'? Or is it just get the 100 feet done regardless of step length?
Trying to get this in early so i can get alot of responses....but was just wondering if anyone in the columbus or nearby area was going to the arnold classic next weekend? they have oly-lift competitions which i hopefully get to see, just hoping to see some people rep crossfit...wear your shirts and i'll talk to you!
still catching up. did the 5x3 front squat workout tonight.
225 245 265 275 255
cool looking workout.
@ Comment #15
thanks in the end woulda cost me 60' almost a whole lunge round.....maybe i would have been better not knowing
This should be quick and painful.
Comments # 10 and #15
a highschool court is 50' wide by 84' long... professional is 50' x 94'. Most are 50' x 94'. So sideline to sideline gives you 100' exactly. Sorry to butt in. Give this WOD hell!
Comment #34
Hi Matt, my understanding is 100ft is 100ft, its work done, however you do it. Sensible mechanics do prevail, i.e. Front knee should not go out over the toes, which puts the lunge at 90/90 ideally.
Also lunge is full ROM back knee should touch the ground, but only gently I beleive the term is kiss the ground ;-) no bouncing of the floor.
Hello again noobs. First of all I have to say that my test and acquisition brethren HATE the CFT. I haven't done it yet but I like it just because of that. so Oorah CFT!
Walking lunges. There is a video for it. You guessed it, Exercises & Demos. No weight is prescribed so we are just using our bodies. #17 Ben Kershner - no need to pause with the feet matched although you may if you like. You do have to extend your leg fully though so skipping the pause doesn't buy you any advantage.
Pull-ups. Skip this if you've read my pull-up speal before. Kipping pull-ups are standard in crossfit. There are two kips the normal one and the "butterfly" kip. Butterfly kips are faster but because they are faster, they wear you out more and may leave you gassed. There are videos of both if you poke around in Exercises & Demos. There are even videos of trainers teaching people how to kip. Ignore the meatheads at the globogym who tell you kipping is cheating then go on to do a bunch of 6 inch range of motion things that to us don't equal one pull-up. If you don't have a kip yet and can't do all these pull-ups, there are a bunch of ways to scale them. You can use the Gravitron, be sure to write down your assist so you can compare to next time this wod comes up. If you have assist bands, they work great because you can use them while you develop your kip. You can do jumping pull-ups. Find a bar a little over head height (or even higher) and jump and grab it pulling yourself up the rest of the way. Whatever you choose, be sure to document it. Don't do 87 negatives. That is too many and will put you at risk for Rhabdo, a condition you don't want. If you want to do negatives to build your pull-ups, don't do them with this workout. Last thing, don't worry if you get tested on strict pull-ups (IE Marines). Kipping pull-ups will build your strict ones. It doesn't screw you up.
Sit-ups. Lots of options. If you have an Ab-Mat, they work really well. Put one behind your lower back and splay your legs to the sides. That takes out the hip flexors. You can also use a rolled up towel the same way. Otherwise, anchored, unanchored, slant board, any way you want. Document what you did so you can compare it to next time. If you are feeling really strong in the core, try some GHD situps. If you haven't done them before, don't do the whole workout that way. Try maybe the set of 9 or the set of 6 the first time. Bad things happen to people who do lots of GHD sit-ups before they are ready. Really bad things. That said, a few won't hurt you too bad so don't be scared to try them. There is also some skill to the movement, watch the video before you try it. Pay attention to the timing of the knee bend.
Overall conduct is simple. Start the timer, go through the workout top to bottom and stop the timer. If you have to break up the sets, break them up but don't start the next exercise until you get all of the one you are on done. Post your time back here along with what kind of sit-up you did and if you scaled the pull-ups or lunges. Compare your time with everyone else or don't. More important is how you compare with yourself last time or next time. Have fun!
Thanks Jeff!
That's my man on the main site!!!
Leo is as much a part of our box as the pullup bars and the sweat angels. He's a better teammate than I could have ever asked for, and I can never express my gratitude and appreciation for what he has done for me and our community.
We love you, and we're proud of you bro!
P.S. It totally does look like an inverted Nike Jordan / Jumpman logo...guess we just found out what those first shirts are gonna look like!
hmm.. i don't know how to measure out 100 feet at my college's gym
The compare to date on this one is from back in June of 2004. I would be interesting in reading the comments and comparison of anyone who has been with crossfit since then. Please add 'KSW' to your posting so I can find it.

tough on the lungs
i'm having problems with the posts...iwrote two times but nothing...
big hugs everybody
How many lunges are in 50ft or 100ft? no tape measure.
I may regret this, but it doesn't look too bad...
cheeto14,
100 ft is approx: 40 paces.
#39 Rob F and everyone else who doesn't have a 100 foot tape measure: if you happen to have a basketball court handy, a standard high-school/college basketball court is 50 feet wide. You could do lunges there, pace out 50 feet worth of lunges and double that for a lunge count, or just eyeball it to get an idea for size somewhere else.
Good Luck
JohnFahn -
Going to try to make it to the Arnold with a group of CFers from here in Cincinnati. Hope to meet you there!
no weight, it would specify otherwise.
(Ring Pull ups - Abmat sit ups)
11:54
Wow, some of those who posted back in the day were both hard core and refreshingly resourceful:
Tony B: "the pullups continue to kill me. To make matters worse, I was doing them off a dirty 2x4 beam on the porch since I couldn't get to the gym. Also, the walking lunges had to zigzag along the only flat walkway on the property."
Grand Dad: "24 min...1 pod KB each hand for lunges"
Rajesh: "Caly, if you want to get better at doing pull-ups... just do more pull-ups. It has been working well for me. I try to do at least 100 a day."
It's good to see x-fiters are still the same, rigging up whatever works... all in the pursuit of the ultimate goal: losing your breakfast all over your workout buddy, then them giving you a high five for taking it to that level.
Oh the sweet pain.
Wartime Gym Requirements.
I think I need to sub in-place alternating lunges for the walking lunges. I have very little space and need to keep claim to the 1 pull-up bar.
How biomechanically different is an alternating lunge to a walking lunge?
About how many on each leg would folks recommend?
If folks who have 100’ measured out could post their lunge count, we could come up with a good average.
Looking forward to this one.
This one will definitely bring my back to the good ol' days of track practice. Eerily similar to many of them.
Although I struggle with pull-ups, this one will be a great challenge.
#53 GL AF in Iraq
I was wondering the same thing and concluded that each lunge = about 4 ft. So 25 on each leg would be 100 ft.
Anyone else have input on that?
I see serious DOMS in my future..........3..2..1...go!

I wish we would have had TANYA when I was still in the Corps. Crossfit is far superior to what we were doing back in '06. I feel like all the PT sessions were a waste of time.

Funny you have the Combat Fitness Test on here today, I just finished mine this morning.
Movement to combat - 2:45
Ammo can lift - 99
Movement under fire - 2:22
The movement to combat was on the side of river in down town Sarajevo, dodging old ladies and dog walkers. Next time it will be better.
This event is right in line with crossfit. Good to see the Corps moving in this direction.
JPW, where are you? we miss your detailed explanations mixed with love and support for us new kids on the block :)
jumping pullups all the way....

May not be walking tomorrow...

The lunges didn't feel too sporty after doing front squats and dead lifts yesterday.
@JPW, bingo, jRoCk
I'm trying to generate some interest in Crossfit where I live and have put together a facebook group to gather people for the workout, on days when we can do it outdoors (there's a playgound with some rings and stuff that we can use). I just wanted to check with you guys if it's alright that I copy the 'daily instructions' that you write to the group page to give the people an idea of the execises we doing.
Anyone in Zürich, Switzerland, let me know!
Thanks

Lunges were across a basketball court (15 steps)and back (15 steps)
From the "gasping slug" contingent: 14:52 BUT with jumping pullups after the first 21, and crunches instead of situps, so not counting so well.

I'll just speak for myself, and say copy away! I truly don't believe that either of those two cats will care either, but they can speak for themselves.
CrossFit has largely become, for me, about paying it forward. And if that means that you or anyone else copies and pastes what I say somewhere in order to help others, have at it I say!

Accept the Challenge, Train Hard and Push Through "IT"!
This CFT looks different than the one I remember from OCS. Has the CFT changed or is the CFT not standardized across the Marine Corps? (Or has my memory finally failed me?)
First of all, I wouldn't have even dreamed of being able to finish this WOD 3 weeks ago. I could only do 5 pullups. For my first set today, I did 17 straight - by far my PR. By the end, I had to do a few jumping pullups to finish the sets.
16:20
For a little extra, did some 60/80 interval sprints (60 sec sprint / 80 sec walk) x5, then a 1/2 mile jog. Don't know if I'll be able to walk tomorrow, but can't wait to see what you guys are going to throw at me. Have a great WOD everybody!

New England Journal of Medicine published a report that essentially concluded that macro-nutrient ratios are irrelelvant, just focus on calories out > calories in...
Four diets were used, 811 subjects. Gave it a quick scan, but couldn't figure out which of the two 25% protein diets was the 'high-protein' diet.

As a retired Marine and current CrossFitter, it makes me feel great knowing the Corps is in good hands. Combat fitness tests have always been a part of Marine training, but mostly at the unit level. It may be too much to ask that the Corps get rid of the current PFT (Pull-ups, Crunches, and 3 mile run), but this test is a step in the right direction.
When I was a Drill Instructor at MCRD San Diego (80 - 82) we used to run recruits through the Strength and Endurance course, more affectionately known as the S & M course. It was 5 miles long and you had to run at a fast pace to a series of stations and perform exercises (bends and thrusts or squat thrust), sit-ups, pull-ups, scale walls, etc. It was brutal in a way that would satisfy even the most avid CrossFitter out there.
To me, this type of test is what a military fitness test should measure. I also believe that Coach's involvement and efforts with the military to promote CrossFit will continue to pay dividends. Finally, to those future officers in the video, all I have say is stay motivated, keep the faith, and always take care of your Marines!!

I haven't done the CFT yet but I know it is coming up sometime in the next few weeks. I was going to prepare with conventional wisdom but decided instead to use CrossFit. After a week and a half in the program I feel 10x better and am looking forward to knocking the CFT out of the park.

Had a thought on a workout today. Was discussing home defense and the conversation degraded into the usual nonsense about which weapon is best...one of my buddies suggested that regardless of the weapon, you should do target practice at 10ft (the avg range for home invasion encounters) and you should shoot after knocking out 50 push ups.
It got me thinking about having to perform precision movements at high heart rates. Since target shooting is not practice at most xfit gyms I tried to come up with interesting substitutes. This is the best one I could think of.

Good Morning!
It is so sunny out today - fabulous!! Today is day 2 of life changes and I went to a new affiliate. Last night I was so excited I barely slept and kept waking up with the thought that I had missed the crossfit class...remember when you were a kid waiting for Santa?? Yeah, that is the feeling I had. We did "Cindy" this morning and I did 10 rounds + 1 round of pull ups and 1 round of push ups. And...all of my pull-ups were unassisted kips!! I am so grateful to Dhani who runs the affiliate and for his excellent kipping instruction: "Push away" when I come down, rather than dropping and having to wind up again.
Moreover, it was so nice to be with others who just wanted to work hard and accomplish something for themselves. I have received a few emails regarding my absence from the posts and I thank you all for chasing me. I hide when I do not know who or where to turn to, and it is generally unhelpful. Knowing that I was missed and hearing about your challenges made me realize that it is okay to have a difficult day however, it is unproductive to hide from our feelings. I messed up a lot in my life, and I am disappointed in myself for it. So, I am just taking it one moment at a time....even this is difficult. But today, doing the pull-ups and the entire workout, I just said, "Focus on the moment, do not think about rounds or numbers or beating records....just get through it. Look at every rep as a challenge and fight for it...I can do it, I am doing it," and I feel better for having made the effort, even if I did not set a record.
I realize you are all waiting for nutrition advice and I will get back to posting answers and such after I move this weekend. I do not want to let any of you down - you have your own challenges to face, so please let me know of how I can help you.
Herm, it is good to know you have faith in the world and in your own recover - you are an inspiration. And S'more...I really wish you were here to hug....what do you see when you look out your window??
Allison, Jeff, Cooke, Lisa, Patty, Dhani, Chris (even though you never read the main page!)...thank you for always being here every day...you are the last people I think of before I go to bed at night, and the first ones I think of and check in with each morning.
Be well - take care of yourselves...love the lunges!! I will double-up tomorrow or make this one up on the rest day...today was Cindy and I am spent and need a nap...but first, packing to move on.
Luv Jen

Don't have a measuring tape. I've seen 40 paces (20 per leg) = 100 ft. and I've seen 50 paces (25 per leg) = 100 ft so far in this post. I guess I'll do 46 paces (23 peg leg) and hope that's close enough either way. Thoughts anyone?

Lunges with full hip extension and upright each rep; no "slinking" reps. Mix of strict and kipping pullups (deliberate frog kick style - it's more vertical so my shoulders don't come through much), situps below parallel on the GH machine.
While my time is the same as 040613, I know my pullups are good this time around. Back then I was doing the "never straighten the elbows" type pullups so my ROM and strength are much improved.

Did this WOD with 6# weighted vest on.
Did Burpees with 1 foot vertical jump above reach istead of pull-ups. (I injured my left ring finger pretty good somehow so hanging on the pull-up bar wasn't feeling too good today.)

May have over estimated the distance on the lunges.
# 53 GL AF in Iraq (and others regarding # of lunges):
For a short guy like me, 13 lunges consistantly is 50'. I start at the PU bar, go 13, turn around, start with the alternate leg (I have to always think about this -for some reason, I instinctively want to start on the same leg I left off with before the turn) and come back.
As long as you go knee to floor, I would think 24 - 26 forward or reverse (step back) lunges would be the way to go.

Thanks for your replies the other day with respect to overtraining/taking days off. shoulder's aching progressively in recent weeks
I agree with your comments...have taken 4 of the last 5 cycles off, slightly guilty, but hit another PR(+20) today push pressing 215
amazed at the continued progress that I see despite being 42. Not as strong as I was in college..yet!
no I don't bench press any more than what coach throws at us. Except for some distance running I attempt to do the WOD's only. Shoulder problems last summer and this fall developed from attempting ring work when I wasn't ready and from steady increase in shoulder strength. I believe that muscular strength will increase at a rate faster than what the ligaments will permit. So I am cautious about doing too much.

Basketball courts vary in size but the foul line (15'), key (12' wide) and three point line (19'9" for high school) are always the same. I think college 3 point line is 20'9" this year???
Regulation size for college is 94' x 50'
Regulation size for high school is 84' x 50'
according to sportsknowhow.com I think these are accurate :)
As rx'd only broke the pu's on th 15 and 12 rounds (at 9), rest unbroken. Lunges took 16 steps up and back to make the 100'.

Every day. If you do the CFWU (see the FAQs) as prescribed, you'll do 45 full ROM dips every day. Then there are push-ups, dips, rings dips in many WODs and Bench in one (Lynne).
If you do the CFWU and the WODs, you'll see that when we bench, it improves fine without doing conventional BB moves often. For example, my bodyweight Bench reps have gone from 11 to 25 in 8 months or so, without benching outside the WOD.
Yea i agree with you herm that was really annoying, lol had a shot out to ya, how is everything going? I responded to your comment about you wanting to do a one handed handstand and your current ability of handstands. the progression is not that difficult but you do need to have a solid two handed before moving on.
But i also wonder if it was picture of the gentlemen doing a one handed cartwheel haha!

No cartwheels, that handstand is as legit as it gets. If you saw the original photo, there are about 5 people all watching and it's hilarious. He's been working on that (and some other funny break-dance type of inversions) for a while to get it dialed in.

#127/ScottE regarding the study in the New England Journal of Medicine...
My thoughts? The authors may as well have stated that regardless of macronutrient ratio, each diet was equally as ineffective. The "weight loss" they claim was an average of 12 pounds over 6 months, with most individuals gaining it back within 12 months. The "effectiveness" they're referring to is as useful as the statement by ACSM that accumulating 30 minutes of moderate exercise on all or most days of the week is beneficial.
And your point about the "high protein" diet? Yeah, 25% is "high"-er than the 15% in the "low" protein diet. If they think 25% protein intake is high, I'd love to know what they think of the Zone!
Anyway, my $0.02.

All rounds unbroken. Anchored situps. Piece of cake. Lost a few seconds on the transitions. Situps should be faster. Gently kissing the ground with the trailing knee makes the walking lunges slower than they could be.
This is my first time posting. I have looked at this site for a long time and every now and then tried the WOD. I am making every effort to follow the program. Never did some of these excerises before. I have workedout/excerised for many years. I don't think I have ever pushed myself as hard as I will get pushed here.
I completed today in 25:28.
Thanks Crossfit

Tail end of week three of CrossFit:
21:46, subbed decline sit-ups.
The sticking point is still those damn pullups, but I think I've done more in the last 2 weeks than I have in the last 22 years. Almost got the entire first set in unbroken.
I go to one of those cookie-cutter gyms (Snap Fitness) and the people there think I'm a nutjob.
Fourth week at cross fit. I am starting to work out again since a shoulder injury which I had to have surgery on. When I started I could barley do 3 unassisted pull ups. I have come a long way since then. I also feel better than I ever have fitness wise. This is the best work out I ever done!

"#192/p. l. that's quite an extra workload youadded there! I bet your quads are smoked!"
Yes they were...but was feeling guilty because I missed 4 of the last 5 WOD cyles due to shoulder abuse so I decided to make up yesterday's Push Jerks...another goof and did Push Presses for Max: +20PR 215...definitely stoked!
Globo work out GHD sit ups I don’t know why my time sucked so bad guess culture club really is not that motivating for working out.

Crossfit anecdote, because I can't help myself:
I had a job interview this morning for a position I'm pretty unqualified for, but greatly desire. Naturally, had to do the whole "dress up" thing. I'm a wifebeater/running shorts 24/7 type of gal and generally feel like no matter how flattering an outfit *should* be, it never is. So this morning, as I'm running around doing last minute research and donning the slacks and button up, my sister stumbles down the stairs, still 75% asleep. "Damn Nat, you look SKINNY. Very nice, but damn skinny girl." I've never been the skinny one in the family, in fact, the sister that said this has been a twig her whole life regardless of activity and caloric intake. For the first time in my life, I noticed, and AGREED with her. My first thought looking in the mirror was "Damn, where'd my lil belly go?!" Crossfit has put my self confidence through the roof and her noticing the outward change that beautifully compliments the inner change just set the stage for a fantastic interview, not to mention a great day.
Thinking about the effort I've put into myself for the last 6 months made me giggle when the panel interviewing me asked "What does work ethic mean to you?"
Anyway, WOD as rx'd: 13:49. Good times!!

JB - thats sick, I have been practicing them for awhile now and I am slowly getting to that point that is why I asked. I deff understand the hard work and determination required to nail a skill like that.
CONGRATS ONCE AGAIN!
Shawn (#353) the longer you do them the easier they get and faster you become! Use our times as motivation (like you really need any) to increase yours. And once you get those solid pull ups your time will drop drastically! Nice work bro!

2nd day of crossfit. Didn't expect to be able to do much of this workout. It took about 25-30 minutes and I was able to finish by breaking up the pull-ups and using assisted when needed. I can only do 6 or 7 unassisted but hopefully I will start getting the hang of it. Sit-ups and lunges weren't too bad.

Was sooooooo sore today. When I get DOMS, it is day 2 that I am really sore. I did the 1 arm snatch 2 days ago which fried me- inner thighs, upper body, forearms, everywhere. Then did rowing/ PP along with the ME jerks yesterday, which left me with the shakes. Today in pain all over. Walking this a.m. I said, lunges were be the worst right now. LOL, I had no idea…
I sprayed this eucalyptus menthol spray for muscles ALL over me. I smelled like a halls cough drop at the gym. Its not that it was a hard workout like Linda, but I was in so much pain, it was, well, painful!
Tomorrow is my rest day. The only thing that does not hurt, well, my toes. My toes are good. Ha ha ha

I won't lie, I was afraid of so many pull-ups.
However, doing them helped me get my kip on. Suddenly I was having sets of 5 and 6 where everything stated to click.
I finally figured out what they meant by 'push off the bar at the top.' (I reviewed the 'how to kip' vid yesterday from the latest 'best of crossfit' on the journal.) I was doing a series of dead hang kips before. My pull up kip isn't quite there yet, but I can see the light at the end of the tunnel now.

Are the walking lunges with or without the 45# bar over head?
I did WOD with 45# over head. That will suck if it's without the weight. Oh well, it was a hell of a work out.

I estimated the distance wrong did 150ft on first 2 My legs were dying so we laid down and measured using our height got the last sets down to 100 ft. probably should have measured first. This workout was great, I can't wait for my pull ups to kick in, how long did it take some of you to start being able to do pull ups in the warm up (I sub'ed push ups in the warm up)and then straight dead hang and then finish dead hangs or with just kipping with out coming down during sets or workout, I had to break my pull ups up, but I did all of them. LOVE CROSS FIT.

I'm gonna take tomorrow off in addition to Saturday. I have had a head cold for over a month and still feel like junk. Stayed home from work yesterday, but didnt really rest, ended up doing that killer WOD with Tracker. I have nosy co-workers who were all in my face today about how I've been so sick past few weeks, right in my face asking me whats wrong with my immune system. I wanted to punch that bee-yotch right in the mouth (big sign I am not myself). I do not tell about anything personal, they gossip way too much.
I cannot shake this and am wondering is my immune system run down from the long term antibiotics I am on? Does anyone know about that? My doc did say that was possible. I am on monthly bicillin IM injections for minimum 12 months, cardiac valve problems run in my family and with the strep induced arthritis, doc is following standard preventive protocol and I agree.
12:08. I loved this one. PLUS my rings came in the mail today, so all around it was a rad day.
This is my third day doing cross fit but my first doing the WOD. I liked this workout,it was quick and brutal. Q:Are the lunge done with or with out weight? Did the whole thing in about 20 min, probably weak sauce to the more experienced ppl but ill get better.
Me: 42yo/M/5'10"/176lbs/11.5%BF (man, beer packs it on quick, big sad face)
Warm Up: Greg A's Warm Up 10 reps per set + 25 singles and 25 double unders, Bergener warm up, and some playing with handstands, planches and some bar muscle ups.
WOD: Blah, Blah, Blah Lunges: 16:49 with GHDs
Lunges: All reps knees to floor all sets unbroken 100ft on a hard rubber gym floor, no knee pads or anything else to cover my knees.
Pull Ups: All sets Kipping, all sets unbroken
Sit Ups: did GHD Sit Ups: All sets full range of motion from hand on the floor at the bottom to hand on the toes at the top.
I can make up a ton of time by not having any rest in between exercises. I would end one exercise and rest a few seconds before starting the next exercise, I think this cost me about 3 and a half minutes which is resting ten seconds before each exercise.
Cool Down: one bar muscle up and teaching some Marines on Cleans.
Today, my lady Lysa beat me, man she really puts it on me on the no weight METCONS, she is amazing to watch :>) yeah me!!

Also I think I might stop zoning. My daughter has been showing sign of disordered eating, she's only 12 :(.
Her dad called me this afternoon to ask about strange new habits and I got very upset. I have been measuring and portioning and generally acting strange with food around her since I started this. I recovered from ED 4 yrs ago so this is a bit of deja vu for me. The past 4 years I have been able to relax and *enjoy* food. I love it, the smell of ripe pineapple, washing dirt off beet greens, feeling waxy turnips, love chopping cooking baking discovering new recipes. I *read* cookbooks. My spice rack is alphabetized (many people find that funny, I dont know why) LOL I have 6 types of ground pepper! I waited 6 months for a cast iron Le Creuset skillet to go on sale and it was still $120 and I bought it- with glee! WHile I have been eager to come up with new recipes, I find that I am not happy.
Eating 90% paleo (my goal) and IFing was so natural and *easy*. I eat when I'm hungry. Stop when I'm close to full. Eat as few things as possible that comes in a can, box or bag. That's it. Fat blocks? You're kidding. I used to eat so much fat its not funny. I hardly weighed myself and I was always the same. Stomach flat, arms legs nicely defined. Now Im weighing in daily, and thinking, man, all I can have is 6 almonds? A teaspoon of olive oil? 1/3 of a sweet potato? Wha? I feel I could eat paleo and IF till im 100 yrs old. Zoning forever? God help me.
So now with my bambina seeing me weigh and measure, and eat foods I normally didn't, I dont think I'm helping her situation either. I feel awful and somehow responsible for her behavior. We plan on taking her to a counselor, thank god that we are on such good terms with each other that we can co-parent like this, and knowing my history, her dad was very kind and tactful in bringing this up, knowing I would feel guilty. Moms of pre-teens, (dads too, sorry Allie) how do you reconcile a diet mentality with your girls? This feels, looks, and smells like a diet. :( I am all out of sorts. I think I have to stop. I am IFing til tomorrow morn and see how I feel.

this one was FUN! i was worried from sptraining my back BAD on monday's rowing WOD, so took the past couple of days off. Did this on a gymnastic floor (extra spring) and barefoot which definitely added to stabilization work. On the pullups, only had 2ft to the wall and sore back so had to REALLY use my midline stabilization (first time focusing on it) for kipping and it worked WONDERS! Even on zero food (moron, i know) and fighting off the flu, i am proud of my time....

Pullups kipped situps anchored abmat.
Well, ortho couldn't find anything wrong with the shoulder. X-rays from last year show a mild spur but nothing alarming. He's sending me to their spine and nerve specialist. He's a little concerned about the numbness and tingling. No $h!t so am I.

i'm struggling to do kipping pullups
21:50 I think I may have gone beyond 100' as I just lunged down a long hallway. My lunges weren't very quick but pull ups felt ok. I definitely need to invest in an abmat soon; hard floors don't feel that great on my lower back. Glad I did it but definitely need to be faster next time.

Judging from all the sub 15 times, I didn't measure out the 100 feet well, nor did I push hard enough. That's a losing combination. All pull-up sets unbroken but for 18 and 15.

Pony, 2 pieces of advice:
1 - Go back to paleo RIGHT NOW. No-brainer.
2 - Stop posting as "Strong Lil Pony F/37/5'5"/140?". Drop the stats part and go with Strong Lil Pony. That's the name that matters. We don't give a f%&k about the "F/30something/blah blah" part.

Comment #564 - Posted by: Speal
I can envision the pull-up to sit-up transition: drop off the bar, land on your back and start sit-ups from there.
And the ensuing sit-up to lunge transition:
At the top of the sit up, you use momentum gained from sitting up and spring into the first lunge.
I cannot comprehend how you blast through these WODs so powerfully. Chris, you're an inspiration!

Boy do I suck at pullups. the rest of the wod no problem. 3/4 of my time spent at the pullups.
as rx'd 22:28
Managed to knock all of em out kipping,no jumping. first,and 2nd set were 5-6 at a time... after that lots of breaks, 2-3 kippers then 20 seconds or so of rest, another 3, etc.. proud of myself for doing them all without slacking, had to try not to think about how slow I was going.
My third WOD today. M, 58, 279lb slug.
Had to modify all:
Didn't "kiss the floor", had to offset 200 lbs of my 279 and still only managed, 6, 6, 7, 8 and 9 pull ups. Sit ups were ok, but i didn't find a video so i did crunches...Anyway, didn't make it thru the last two sets....a very long way to go and respect to all you out there who can do this!
Day 20 post-op:
Upon waking, pain in the left shoulder is the same as yesterday. My right shoulder is still a bit sore in the medial and posterior portion of the humeral head.
10 AM
Shoulder rehab in accordance with Post #344 on Thursday, 2/19/09. Notes:
Walk backs: Increase in ROM of 10 degrees.
Wall crawls in the power cage: 2nd hole from the top on reps 9 and 10.
Scapula squeezes, forward to back rotations, and backward to forward are same as yesterday.
Bicep flex and extension: dull ache is dissipating. No pain during the wrist supination and pronation.
6 PM
Shoulder rehab in accordance with Post #344 on Thursday, 2/19/09. Pain has dissipated some.
Stopped wearing the sling during non-critical moments, and only wearing it during work, workouts, and sleep. It's now more of a protective mechanism from my own stupidity than a necessity. So in that sense, it's a necessity! LOL

Strong Lil Pony - that's EXACTLY why i wont Zone! More more thing we have in common, chica! I agree w Herm - head on back to Paleo. let your lil mama see numbers dont mean anything - health and fitness does :) You are awesome mom! btw - im clueless as to how much i weigh and i like it that way ;)

Good advice Herm! I could give you a hug for it too!
Strong Lil Pony- we have much of the same past. I began recovery from and ED 4 yrs ago too.
I stick to innate (sort of like paleo) eating and skip the measuring. Same for me- took a long time to see food normally. If paleo was easy/natural for you- I'd say go back to that and just be happy and healthy :)
A hero of mine said to make "Health" my goal, not weight, not any of that. Just health. And the rest follows. :)
Take care!

First time doing lunges so thighs will probably be sore tomorrow. Knees as bruised also as I had to do the walking lunges over concrete.
Funny thing was that during the first couple of rounds I was really looking forward to the lower number of pull-ups in the later rounds. Big awakening half way through when I realised that this meant a shorter rest for the legs....

I didn't have a track long enough, so I did 30 reps of walking lunges (walking back and forth around every 10 reps or so) with 25 pound plates.

As rx'd, almost 20 minutes. Gym got a little crowded and had to wait for a pull-up bar, but for all accounts not a performance to remember.
Played catch up today. Push jerk 135-155-165-175-185-195-195(pr) followed by this WOD-17:12 followed by 10 miles on the stationary bike-26:33. I have been doing the WODs for a month now and I am loving the results. I wish I had listened to some friends who tried unsuccessfully to get me to start this a year ago. I am hooked to say the least.
3 days ago I moved some old school desks for somebody. It was a lot of awkward overhead lifting. When I tried to do the push jerk WOD the next day I had extreme pain in my shoulders, didn't finish the workout. I think I only did 145. Probably something to do with the rotator cuff?
That sent me into a bit of a depression, I hate injuries. I was so down about my shoulders that I didn't do this workout on schedule yesterday. I finally drug myself out of the house and played catch up today. Did it bare foot in my yard with the P ups on rings. I'm glad I did, life is so much better when you're not sitting around feeling sorry for yourself.

Very busy day. Woke up around 5:20 A.M., got on my bike and pedaled to work for about 20 minutes to be there at 7, got out of work around 6 (my legs were killing me), pedaled back home for 20 minutes, got ready to be picked up for the rap, came home round 11:30 P.M. was walking to the door...
at that moment I was thinking to myself, if I don't get the WOD in then I'll regret it.
I live right by a school. According to google maps, this one chalked out part on the ground was 50 ft so I walked that back and forth in almost pitch black, I also wasted some time trying to figure out where I would do the situps without hurting myself on rocks and I couldn't see the chalk at one point so I had to use my phone to help me when I was doing the lunges.
My time: 18:44.27
Gotta get to bed so I can make it to the CF gym in the morning! Hooray!

The USMC CFT is an awesome workout. I'm a combat conditioning specialist, so we administer them occasionally. Best time I have seen in the "Maneuver under Fire" is a 1:56. Highest for the ammo can press was a Lt. that got 155 in 2 mins. And the run is actually 880 m, not 800. Make sure you rest atleast 5 minutes between the three events. Good luck and tear it up!

17:28 which included walks to and from the basketball court for the lunges, had to wait some for the pull up bars in 24hr fitness. Pull ups were butterflies and situps were unanchored. I'm not sure I understand how anyone is doing this in 6 mins. I'm not happy with my time and thought i would be closer to 12 mins but I was not in an ideal gym and did it on a saturday so it was very busy but still don't get how 6 mins is possible. anyone else a little confused on that?

I could not measure 100ft precisely. I did 30 walking lunges which I think was more than 100ft (I have a long stride).
Did my first crossfit workout and I loved it!! In the beginning, I thought it would take me all day to complete it- but it took a whole 25 minutes. I did assisted pull-ups and made it challenging. I thought the lunges were easy at first. Towards the end my legs were like rubber. Afterwards I felt wiped out yet ready for more.?? Crazy! I thought I was pretty tough til the next day when my ass was killing me! Can hardly sit!! I love it!!!

BUT I can explain... as I measured the weight room today.
For whatever reason, I wasn't thinking and did the first four rounds as 2 rounds trips across the weight room. But the weight room is actually 50 feet across. So - for the first 4 rounds, I did 200' of lunges.
Realized my mistake and did the last 3 sets as 2.5 round trips plus 10 - thinking I was going 30' each way. Wrong. So, the last 3 sets, I did 160' of lunges.
All tolled - 1280' of walking lunges - almost a 1/4 mile. Which is quite a bit more than the 700' prescribed.
No wonder I took the next series of workouts off. Good God...

Finding a good pull-up bar is a must. Didn't have one so made kipping almost impossible :(
as rxd 15:55.
Honestly figure I can do better next time. At least pull a minute off this time if I have a good pull up bar. Hate to make excuses. All the more reason to make my own box!
Lungs hurt the most on this one. Tough to go at a fast pace. Think I averaged about 12 to 13 per 50ft.
Good Workout. Looking forward to doing it again with a better pull-up bar.

Man, there are some fast times posted here.
WOD, with broken pullup sets:
23:30
I guess the situps are supposed to be glute/ham situps, though, right? I did them on a slantboard, so maybe I didn't do the WOD as rx'd?
~14 min (probably could have matched my last time had I not had to pick up a fallen barbell and wait a number of times for water...next time, I'll skip the water).
I really didnt know how far 100 ft was so I just did 50 walking lunges. Everything unbroken, and anchored sit ups: 13:19.
Scaled back to puppy cause I'm TERRIBLE at pullups.

Despite good form with my kipping pull-ups I still struggle. Losing 15 lbs should help. Waiting for the first warm day when I take my shirt off for motivation to diet proberly.
