on day 22 of 50 day burpee challenge. We will see how it has helped.

I know the guy in the back with the white shirt with the clip board...Andy@UT...he's a beast...well we'll find out in about 4 weeks...ocs..hint hint

bring it

DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANG did not see this coming lol. Should be one heck of a day.

Let's GeT IT!!

wow coach.... Did you just watch Rocky or something?

double unders are gonna kill!!

100 day burpee challenge equals a total of 5,050 burpees. Just throwing that out there.

Is anyone Located at FOB (or COB) SPEICHER?
Tikrit, Iraq. Shoot me an email.

Filthy Fifties - celebrated my 50th birthday with everyone at my affiliate last month - no over-the-hill party for me. Still trying to get a sub 30 but I really like this WOD.

Were do the different challenges come from? Like the burpee challange for example?

Hmm might need some sub for this one.

Whats Knee to elbow?

Kettle swing 1 pood?

Sub exercise for wall ball. Can't do it at my gym :(
- 20lbs thrusters?

Yeah, I pretty much hate this WOD.

I missed "Danny" last Thursday and I think I'll do that instead.

Out.

Outstanding! Probably going to bed early for this one.

can you break it up or does it need to be done in order?

Okay this is going to hurt. Never quit, Never surrender!!!!

Jacko whats RRG?

awesome, jumping pull ups are my forte!
hahaha

H.E. - as r'd means as it is written. you can break it up but make note for next time if you want to compare. i highly recommend doing as rx'd as there is no better feeling than finishing with burpees and double unders

brian - thanks for your email

crossfit is under attack by congress? care to elaborate?

it was all good until you double unders came up.

Hot damn, this is a workout!
Fight through!

Yeah..one of my favourite CrossFit WOD's...Im still having angie strugles, hope feel better tomorrow morning...

last time i stopped at the tenth burpee. This time my goal is to finish.

thanks for the early post.... this is going to hurt... trying for rx'd

Hey guys what would the sub for the box jumps be.

looks fun! Im bummed i'll have to skip it - still cant put any weight on my foot :(

A lot of arguing the last couple of days. Nothing to unify enemies like complaining about a filthy fifty.

Why is the filthy fifty never named when it's the WOD?

Eric- working on flight plans tonight for Aromas :) finally get to use dopey perks on my amex card

Filthy Fifty....BRING IT ON!!

For any/all newcomers...I present you with the...

**Newbie Post**

Alright, so here we have the beloved "Filthy 50". Has a nice ring to it doesn't it?
Before i even get started, here's a lovely video showcasing this WOD.
PC: http://media.crossfit.com/cf-video/CrossFit_PittFilthyFifty.wmv
MAC: http://media.crossfit.com/cf-video/CrossFit_PittFilthyFifty.mov
Next up in line of importance, would once again be BrandX Scaling. Go to the mainsite page, left hand side...hover over "Start Here" and click "BrandX Scaled Workouts" in the drop down menu. There is no shame in using this excellent resource!
For the exercises and how to do them. Since we have such a lengthy list, I'm not going to completely hold your hand today. Go to the "Exercise and Demos" page and make good use of the "Find" box (ctrl+F or Apple+F). Type in each exercise for video demos! If my descriptions aren't enough, you should be able to fill in the blanks with those! They're quite entertaining as well as informative :)
Box Jumps: Doesn't HAVE to be a 24 inch box. 24 inches is the prescribed height, yes, but if you're lacking the resources for that precise height use what ya got! To make these legitimate, make sure you have an open hip on the top of the box (stand tall and proud!). Now do that 49 more times :)
Jumping Pullups: Pretty good demo of this in the video i linked. Set up a box under you if you're short (like me) so you can reach the bar with a decent knee bend. Jump yourself up to chin over the bar or chest to bar and push yourself back down for faster cycle times!
Kettlebell Swings: 1 pood = 35#, no kettlebell? Use a dumbbell, problem solved. Prescribed is to overhead, however, if you're new to this movement that might feel sketchy. Just go to eye level or slightly above :) HIGHLY RECOMMEND watching Jeff Martone's video demos for these on proper form so you don't end up like those tv commercial ads...*puke in disgust*
Lunges: Pretty self explanatory, 25 each leg baby! Gently tapping the bottom knee to the ground
Knees to Elbows (K2E): If you can't muster your knees up to that level, a good scaling of this would be to simply bring knees to chest or "ball up", or if not that raise the knees as high as possible
Push Press: Shoulder press with a "dip and drive"! Full extension on top, learning to cycle these together is a giant time saver. Video demo is highly recommended here as well.
Back Extensions: Another self-explanatory movement. There is a great video demonstrating the differences of back ext and hip ext. Make sure you're doing the prior!
Wall Ball Shots: 20# ball for guys, 14# for gals (as rx'd). Squat down, hips falling just below the knees, and squat up aggressively throwing the ball at a 10ft target (or as high as you can if no wall is "available"). Catch it and...yup, 49 more of those suckers!
Burpees: YAAYY BURPEES! Legitimate burpees are mostly scrutinized at the top, so i will focus there. Jumping up and clapping over head with fully opened hips in a vertical position = good job/CF Games standard. Some others have you jump a specified number of inches to make it count. The choice is yours.
Double Unders: Love these! If you can't do them the sub is tuck jumps NOT "200 singles" or any other amount of singles.

Do all of those things 50 times for time and you'll be done! Write down any subs/scaling/etc.

If there are any other questions on subs or form, you should refer to the FAQ and Exercise and Demos before asking for help here. No one here minds a good question if you're having trouble and have tried your best to find the answer yourself. But asking without putting in some effort is frowned upon (and lazy).

Sorry for being so long winded! Trying to fit in all in and be as concise as possible for you guys! Bare with me and enjoy :)

**Noob Out!**

@#12
-hang from a pull-up bar and knees to elbows
-35lb plate swings is an okay sub
-i recommend making a 20lb medicine ball: cut a hole in a basketball, fill with sand, patch with inner tube patch. ~= 20lbs; otherwise, EXPLOSIVE 45lb plate thrusters is an okay sub.

@#28
-tie a 24" string to your shoes and make it come off the ground every time. jump onto something shorter if you can.

anyone know the name of the song at the very beginning?

Wow, i didn't realize i had just written a small book until i posted. Geesh!

Welp...in addition to that:

H.E.-
To do this as prescribed (Rx'd) yes you have to do it in order with no partitioning. All 50 of one, then all 50 of the next, until completion!

Where is "every second counts"? I thought it comes out on the 22nd of April

Eric, Great post. Thank you. This will be awesome.

312 Jordan:
Sub for wall balls is thrusters at 2x the weight. Sub for DU's is tuck jumps (for those of us who are kinda uncoordinated or have low ceilings - both describe me). Knees to elbows is just as it sounds - hanging from a pullup bar. Kettlebell swing 1-pood is about 35 lbs, so swing a dumbell instead if you don't have a KB in the right size.

its funny that this wod came up because i knew i was going to miss yesterdays wod so i did the filthy fifty on tuesday. my time was 24:38. first time doing actual wall balls. my lower back was on fire. lately any wod has seemed to light up my lower back.

i guess i will make up the deads tomorrow. i may do the deadlift/double under wod that is prescribed for the qualifier this weekend. it looks fun and tough.

I could be wrong, but is this filthy fifty in a different order than at other times?

For anyone that has never done this before, GOODLUCK, please drink plenty of water before and after, because you will not feel right for awhile. Newbies please scale or you will end up in the emergency room. The first time that I did this I thought that I was going to die. To all else I say go for it 3-2-1 GO.

32ish days until Iraq.

Have only been involved with cross fit for about 3 months. I must say this site has been the best fitness discovery I have made to date. I currently make it my business to perform the full warm up before WOD, only making adjustments if I feel completion of the full warm up will negatively affect my form during the WOD as recommended in the FAQ section.

For instance: I don't do 30- 45 pull ups during my warm up if I think or know I will be doing 100 pull ups during the WOD.

To all those who also do "the" full warm up, and have done a Filthy 50 before:

What are you going to be doing for your warm up?

I plan on doing my usual joint mobility & neuromuscular/ dynamic flexibility stuff, as well as 1 round of usual warm up...

What do you think, am I cheesing out the WOD by not doing the full warm up?

damnation, filthy fifty.
get some.

I.R.T. Video
Very nice work, wait till you see the 2 guys from CFJAX GET BUSY. One sleeps in an 02 coffin the other in a barometric chamber. Eat, Train, sleep.
CAV

MY FAVORITE EVER! GET SOME!!

Wow- that video was next level! Those winning WOD times were BEASTLY! Big ups to CrossFit Central and those that competed. Pumps me up.

Mr T #44, I'm a CF nobody, but I do a pretty easy warmup for days which are going to incorporate a little of everything: 400m, 10 burpees, then repeat both. Not at the same intensity as a WOD - like if you're on a treadmill, maybe 8mph and burpees just squat down and kick the legs out, don't throw yourself down on your hands. Gets a bit of sweat going, the heart rate up, and I can't think of a muscle group that's not involved. I dunno... works for me.

As r'xd

Ran out of gas on the burpees

There is a decided lack of body hair in that photo. Is there a Waxing and Shaving certification I'm missing?

#36 NROTCstud,

'screaming and yelling' at the beginning are from Haka All Black - warrior dance New Zealand's natl team does before rugby matches.
As far as I know, they do different ones - compiling new text for new and important 'enemies'. I love to play Haka vids to my clients (I'm business skill trainer and coach) just for fun and motivation.
Check http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cle20lQg0Qs&feature=related and enjoy!

would this be a chipper?

Yes! I can't wait to go to bed so I can do this bright and early with Angie!!

Now if I had a personnel trainer I would just think that I must have done something to piss her/him off if they threw this work out at me. However being a dedicated CF'er its just another day at the gym. Gonna look forward to this one in the morning. 3, 2, 1, Go... Its CrossFit or Not-Fit...

Rookie & Eric
Thanks for the advice. Eric you were right, there is nothing like finishing with burpees and double unders. Finished 3 min faster then last time.

Thanks again.

that photo is sick! and the video was great too. im so stoked for the norcal qualifier now. ahhhh I love Crossfit.

i still cant get over the photo. i want to look like that

#49 Damn, there are liberals on this site too! If you are ashamed, then pack your crap and go.

Woot, Kelli! We are going to rock the Shell tomorrow morning...and then gingerly walk our bikes home.

wow coach.... Did you just watch Rocky or something?

any ideas why my posts keep getting deleted?

Filthy Fifties! Hoo-ah!

Sweet video! If the haka doesn't fire you up nothing will!

1-legged modifications (FOR COOKIE!):

50 1-leg tuck jumps (bring foot as high up as possible), braced on rack (hold on to some kind of support or cage.) ILO (in lieu of) Box jumps
50 Band pull-ups ILO jumping pull-ups
50 Kettlebell High Pulls, seated ILO KB Swings
50 straight-legged sit-ups ILO Walking Lunge
50 Knees to elbows (use slings)
50 seated shoulder press, 20 pound dumbbells
50 GHD Back extensions as Rx'ed
50 1-legged Thrusters to 24" box, 20 pound dumbbells ILO Wallball
50 Push-ups ILO Burpees
50 1-leg tuck jumps (bring foot as high up as possible), braced on rack (hold on to some kind of support or cage.) ILO Double-unders

You can still get a great METCON effect doing this. I wish to be there to coach you through this!

#49 check full facts before just blurting stuff out. Besides, politics is better left off the board ( pun intended).

#49 Leslie

Funny, I was just thinking the same thing. I too am embarrassed that you are an American.

outstanding video!

DNF - pinched back on back extensions only got to 1 wall ball

need an ice bath. maybe a little heavy on deadlifts yesterday

As r'xd 29.44. The burpees at the end were a killer for me

Rookie,

Serious, serious bummer. Get that ice bath.

jakers - cheers. didnt want to push it and do some real damage so decided to stop. theres always next time

great timing, been doing some SS work to put some weight on, and sometimes struggle to find a well-rounded metcon session to close out the week. this is just what my body's been asking for!

#65 Herm-
thanks babe - BIG frontal hugs and kisses :) Time for me to see what I CAN do! Thinkin positive and gonna go for it :)

For the push press do we use only the bar?

chris - yes. 45 pound or 20kg oly bar

Get Some!

thanks for the quick answer Rookie- Crossfit Gold Coast

#49.... You picked a crossfit board to ask that question....? I hope you make better choices on a day to day basis. And its called Interrogation, not torture. And it was done to keep you and all other Americans safe. So when you lay your head down to sleep tonight, you can thank God for those you are speaking of and everyone else risking their lives for you and your safety.

Ive done alot of tough football and MMA workouts but this one looks like a killer.

me and aj are going to destroy this one

#49 Leslie - you are certainly entitled to your opinion - that's what's great about America. Such opinions are not tolerated in nK. Also unlike America, however, many of our sworn enemies answer only to 2 things - fear and power. Are there lines? Sure. But putting a cricket in a box with a guy who's afraid of spiders, or letting a dog bark at someone afraid of dogs should hardly be considered "torture." George Orwell's quote sums it up (though I'll admit there is some argument as to if he really said it, but it's a great sentiment none-the-less): " We sleep safe in our beds because rough men stand ready in the night to visit violence on those who would do us harm. "

killed this one!!! 29:13

Sorry for bringing this up from yesterday's rediculous arguements about that sign but i couldn't let it pass.

From #191 Me:

#74 - Gerard,

Those of us sitting in offices are making it possible for you to sit your a$$ on the internet and go out and play on your mtn bike. It sure would be nice if we could all shirk responsibility, but we cant. Yeah, i'd like to trade places with you and just hang out and ride around all day (my assumption of what you do based on your post) but I can't and well I'd feel that I havent really accomplished anything of merit.

anyway, still annoyed by the blowup of the sign as a matter of poor taste, could care less if someone takes a stupid or calculated risk.

Reply to post #191 Me:

I think you may have misinterpreted my post a little!

Firstly, i live in Ireland so your tax dollars have no effect on me whatsoever(presuming you live in U.S.A) I go mountain biking on weekends when i have the time.
Secondly, i have a full time job, own my own business, have my home and car fully paid for and im engaged to be married next year at 29 years of age. Is that shirking my responsabilites?
Have i accomplished anything of merit? I wont even get into that as i would be here all day.
Maybe that fact that i take calculated risks in life is why so far everything has worked out so well for me( or maybe im just lucky!)
You seem a little stressed, go cycle down a steep hill at 40 m.p.h this weekend and live a lttle, you'll feel better switching on your computer on Monday i promise!
Either way, dont be so insular as to think you can read into a persons life from a few lines on a internet forum.
Have a pint of Guiness on me next time your in a Pub. It may help you relax.
Im not looking for an arguement by the way, you said your piece, i've said mine, case closed. There's work to be done. Happy Crossfiting.

Comment #82 -putting a cricket in a box with a guy who's afraid of spiders, or letting a dog bark at someone afraid of dogs should hardly be considered "torture."

Dave, I don't see anything in my post which mentioned barking dogs or insects. I'm referring to water boarding. Water boarding is torture. Water boarding someone 180 times in 30 days is certainly criminal.

These torturers are not "rough men" who kept the country safe. They are criminals and cowards and their actions made the country less safe, not more safe. The individuals who ordered these crimes should be brought before justice and hopefully they will.

#49 is rare to see someone has such views on these boards. America is supposed to a shining beacon of liberal democracy, the city on the hill, exceptional; and yet it seems that waterboading people repeatedly, depriving them of sleep for days and going so far with torture people sometimes DIE is not what such a country should do. How can you endorse such things and still think america is morally superior? Thats not a rhetorical question, i genuinely want to understand how torture and exceptionalism are compatable. If the people in guantanamo were gulity, why werent they charged and tried in an open court of law using evidence instead of being held indefinately. The people who are about to attack me for having respect for human rights, your hypocracy sickens me. Human rights do matter. The geneva convention matters. If america shows no repect for international law then it doesnt deserve the title 'leader of the free world'. Torture is illegal. If it was american troops being tortured on aljazeera then it would be the actions of 'evil terrorists' and yet when the CIA do it, it's the actions of a patriot. I know im probably wasting my time writing this and will get abuse, but this hypocracy really irritates me. Before you launch into an attack on me, calling me naive, ill informed, or just plain ignorant, i think if you have to resort to name calling it just highlights the weakness of your arguement.

great event put on by jeremy and the crew at crossfit central. watch out for jeff reed. beast.

Leslie #49 (and all who follow, yay or nay):

Crossfit is a Strength and Conditioning program in which we exercise our bodies 3 on/1 off. We exercise our minds 1 on/3 off. Today is a "body exercise" day, dedicated to building our physical fitness. On most days it is also a "community building" day here on the comments.

Your comment #49 is not appropriate to either of today's Crossfit goals, and it and all responses have no place here TODAY. Should this topic interest Coach or Lauren on a Rest Day during which we exercise our brains you can be sure that it will receive plenty of attention.

I invite the moderators consider deleting #49 and all responses, including mine, on this "3 on" day.

Dry heaving in toilet afterwards for cool down. :)

What's the guidance on strict form for something like, say the burpees or tuck jumps(my substitute for double-unders) on a met-con workout like this? Do you have to keep strict form and not count the somewhat sloppier reps, or do you try your best to keep good form while still moving fast and count the reps regardless of perfection?
Thanks so much for the help

#107 Stephen
In the presence of fatigue (especially at the end!) there will always be some form degradation, no matter how amazing you are. Almost every Crossfit WOD plays the line between keeping strict form and going faster (Q: "Should I try to have good form or should I go faster? A: Yes!"). However, you NEVER just let your form go to complete crap.
For tuck jumps I'd say the standard would/should be: jumping up, tucking knees to chest (or as close as possible), and landing in a small bent knee standing position.
There is a video demoing burpees, and I did go into some small detail in my "Noob Post". But once again: At the top you need full hip extension, small jump, and clap overhead. For the push up portion try and make the form consistent with any other push up you do. Don't do what i call "the wave push up". Hope that helps!

Stephen-
Just read your post again and might have misinterpreted it like the sometimes idiot i am lol. Yes, you can count some sloppier reps in the fight towards higher intensity. Just don't let the "slop" become a majority!

Thanks Eric: - Wow, you're smoking fast on the responses this time - and you're doing a great job on the newbie posts - just right, not too long, not too short. Thanks again bud.

#105 bingo,

...'Should this topic interest Coach or Lauren on a Rest Day during which we exercise our brains you can be sure that it will receive plenty of attention.'
Gee... you have high belief they are omniscient and impeccable. Last time I checked, it was reserved to the God (however one calls him/her/it).
Somehow I rather think Coach or Lauren still want us to think for ourselves.. even dare to start a topic.

To Tom, post #93:

Very well said. I've had a rough time expressing my view on this subject as succinctly as you've put it. Even some us "rough men" that Orwell spoke of think such underhanded tactics deplorable.

Cheers.

29:29 - last time was 27:12

Fit - Mom - YOU ARE A MACHINE.

a few questions...

1. how high is the bar set for jumping pullups (touchable)?
2. wt. for lunges (none)?
3. 50 lunges=25per leg?
4. sub for doubleunders?

thanks guys/gals.

Just once would you like to see it say: "Take your time:" instead of "For time:" ? Ha!

dam, i'll just do as many as i can of every excercise. this is going to hurt.

jos #24:

I fear you have missed the intent of my post. Many Rest Days begin with a topic from Coach and Lauren and then veers off toward topics offered by the community. My point is that discussions of this sort belong on Rest Day.

Furthermore, re: 'think for ourselves', you will note that I made no comment, nor did I offer an opinion, on the content of Leslie's post. Re: "omniscient", WTF are you talking about?

Again, mods, I invite you to delete #49 and all related posts, most definitely including mine.

I've been doing crossfit since last Monday and this WOD was killer. Had to modify it somewhat b/c my tank was on E.

Everything as rx'd except:

25 burpees

Suffered again at this on, RX'd until 40 minutes then stopped, didn't do 50 du's, but I did better than last time. I'm wasted.

As far as off-topic comments are concerned, ones without relevance have a tendency to wither and go away. I generally don't start reading until I see a time post because I think those early posts are dull.

If one wants to talk about torture here, why not give it some CF context: does torture provide accurate, reliable intelligence. If not, why do it? Or do you do curls anyway?

16:54

I agree with bingo i'm pretty sure most people comee to the site to get away from politics i know i do

50 minutes. All straight up exercises except 300 jump ropes in place of 50 double unders.

adding to #35
if u dont have a 24" box u could try jumping on a stack of newspapers too. but of course make damn sure they're tied together well.

actually, that little bit of more stability required may make this harder than a regular box jump.

noob out

Sweet video...loved the haka at the beginning.

I have a question about technique. In CF competition, is a bounce at the bottom of a C&J acceptable if you maintain your grip through the bounce? It seemed like one of the guys in the video was doing that...maybe it was just his quickness and not a bounce, couldn't really tell.

Leslie, save it for a rest day.

GOOD TIMES AS RX'D

some of the comments about waterboarding on here have really managed to burrow under my skin.For those that think this country shouldnt resort to such tactics,I hate to break the news to you but this country wasnt exactly founded on pinkie promises and handshakes.When these type actions are seen as punishable in times of war ,then we have obviously become SOFT.As for comments #93&97,one measures his weight in kilos the other is from brisbane so theres a good chance that they are not even americans,so save your critisisms for your own country!

Basically as rx'd except need to bring the knees higher...

The burpees were draining and a time eater.

FRAT--

rock it out today boys and girls, unfortunately i stayed up till about 4 in the am finishing up final projects and have to work all day until class tonight, so no filthy fifty for me, until tomorrow.

I didn't do this one today, but I did get my first muscle up WOD! 22:44 rx'd.

What are some times for you veterans out there? I want to know how quick a seasoned crossfitter does this workout.

31/M/190

Not as rx'd - I didn't have a box so I used a bench that was 21", I don't have kettlebells so I used a 35# dumbbell. I'm just not getting those double unders so I did 100 rope jumps.

The knees to elbows and the burpees probably took me a total of 12 minutes alone.

Hoping for a sub 30, but my time was 32:26. About 3.5 minutes better than the last time i did it in July of 2008.

Comment #148 - "For those that think this country shouldn't resort to such tactics,I hate to break the news to you but this country wasn't exactly founded on pinkie promises and handshakes."

You want to bring back slavery too? Not sure what your point is and I wonder if you even have one.

The country isn't getting "soft." We're behaving like Saddam. If you're cool with that, I feel sorry for you.

Today I entered into our Brigade's deadlift competition as a heavyweight (200-225), which so conveniently lined up with yesterday's WOD which I skipped in order to rest up for today. After having not deadlifted since the last WOD in February, I PR'd by 25 lbs to take first place.

First time doing burpees.... I lost so much time here it is not funny. I am convinced burpees were invented by the devil himself.

Best part of the day... a trainer at my globo sees me bent over gasping for air in the middle of the burpees... asks me if I am doing a crossfit workout... when I say yes he says... then keep pushing :)

great video, always enjoy a little haka

Comment #34 - Eric Gohl,"Back Extensions: Another self-explanatory movement. There is a great video demonstrating the differences of back ext and hip ext. Make sure you're doing the prior!"

I believe you are incorrect on the "back ext" part of your otherwise very good write up.

As explained to me in my level 1: You are supposed to do hip extensions even though it's written as back extensions. Why it's written as such is if a novice/newbie looks up “hip extensions” online or anywhere but at CF you get the wrong overall movement.

This is also confirmed by watching the filthy fifty video under exercises.

Back extensions should never be done for time or with weight.

rx'd except:
Box jumps - bench height as that's the best I could do at my gym
kettlebell swings- used 35 lb dumbbell
wall ball - did 45 lbs thrusters instead (brutal sub probly harder for me then wallball since I suck at front squats)
double unders - did tuck jumps

burpees took me 10 minutes to complete as I stopped for a few minutes & was barely hitting more than 5 at a time

#169 penty
I can agree with your stance on that. There's always been a slightly "open for interpretation" when back extension is involved with the for time WODs. A lot of people, such as yourself, believe cranking on your back at rapid speeds is no good, and I can totally see why. Personally, I haven't had a problem (at least yet, and hopefully never will) doing so. Only reason i decided to mention the difference is because it says "Back Extension" in the write up so I'm just following orders! lol
And just to cover my a$$, this was in no way meant to be snobby! Just wanted to reply. I come in peace :) haha

There is nothing inappropriate about "exercising your mind" the other 3 days of the week as well, nor is it inherently inappropriate to ask the question she asked. If nobody wants to respond to it, then so be it. If someone responds, well, then they found it appropriate enough to warrant a response. I prefer to let my mind exercise at will, not just "1 on 3 off" as coach, or anyone else dictates.

WTF... This is my first ever post on the main site and WOW... Leslie and Tom (post #93)
Why aren't they tried in open courts... Well for starts, maybe because the people who get this information are real Patriots like SEAL DevGru, or CIA and for security reasons can't appear in an open F'n court. How about because we have libral lawyers who rather see Sheik al Muhammed get a Bubble bath while he is prison, but at the same time Sheik al Muhammed, given the chance, will stab this libral lawyer in the eye with an F'n ball point pen, and then blow himself up on a bus full of children.

Leslie... this isn't keeping America safe???, so because of water boarding we prevented another 9/11... that's keeping America more unsafe...
How about you stop getting your "information" from MSNBC, talk to someone who's been in the fight and see what they have to say.

Tried a new WOD (well for us at CrossFit Greensboro)
50 burpee bar muscle ups for time. The bar was an 8ft straight bar.

It posed challenges that we had never planned on or expected.
To give you a little background on where i am with these to moves (burpees and muscle-ups) my pr on 120 burpees for time is 8:44 and i can knock out about 5 ring muscle ups and 8 bar muscle ups consecutively. The amount of focused needed to perform the movement, the burpee muscle up, was unlike anything else we have ever done. And little to no rhythm could ever be established. It was a great workout. I am looking forward to tackling this beast again....although my hands are not!

In case anyone is still interested in fitness, I revised my "chalkboard challenge" after doing some research and emailing some friends. I decided to go with running benchmarks of lifetime PR + 9% (as an age correction), with no body mass correction; and rowing liftime PRs with no age correction at all. Lifetime PRs will be performances at altitude where I have them or corrected for altitude when I have only sea-level results (which is a pretty tricky correction to make). After a year of crossfit I am within about 5% of the rowing benchmarks and 8 - 10% of the running benchmarks. I think that says pretty good things about Crossfit as a sport-specific training method (realizing that is not what it sets out to be). It will be fun for me to monitor this over time, and I bet the gap will get smaller even if it never disappears.

48:00

Man that felt like the first time I did Angie
The knees to elbows and burpees really killed my time
I substituted box jumps with air squats and double unders with doing jumps on my toes with tiny weights in each hand.

comment #176- The song is a remix of Soulja Boy's "crank that Soulja boy".

My first filthy 50 (35 for me):

Instead of the CFWU I did a bunch of joint mobilization exercises.

I had to make a few subs due to lack of equipment

Pack:
For time:
35 Box jump, 18-20 inch box: 2:18.54 (I forgot to hit the lap until after the first few pull-ups)
35 Jumping pull-ups: 1:11.26
35 Kettlebell swings, 1 pood: 2:54.98
Walking Lunge, 35 steps: 1:30.17
35 Ab-Mat Sit-ups: 1:06.68
35 Push press, 1 pood KB: 1:30.55
35 Good Morning Exercises: (forgot to hit lap button, combined with thrusters)
35 1 Pood KB Thrusters: 3:00.10
35 Burpees: 4:15.02
35 Standard Jump Rope Jumps: 44.99

Total: 18:32.29

As you can see, the burpees killed me, but everything else was probably scaled about right. My 20" box jumps went really well and this is the first time I got to use my newly built and painted 20" plyo boxes in a WOD!

The jump rope is coming along, I still can't do double unders, but I only missed one jump on those 35.

IDk about anyone else but the 50 Knees to Elbow always kill me.... SOB lol

I should have listened to Eric's advice. I started with the "Filthy Fify", dropped to the "Freaky Forty" with knees to elbows, then dropped down to the "Dirty Thirty" with wall balls, and almost died at burbpees. I should have scaled instead of killing myself. I just got back into cf last week. I'll start taking it a little easy since I realized today that I'm not as fit as I thought. Come June, I expect to be able to at least complete WOD like today's without dropping dead. I'm going to go cry in a corner now.

50 PP at 50# - not bad, fairly easy
50 LB ext kind of hard, but felt pretty good and did them fast
50 WB - sucked the big one. Had to group in 10's
50 Burbees - I hate these bastards. Slowed me down a lot, thought I would die before they were done. 40:30 sec. Slow, but done.

Anyhooo, that is the story! Think I need to push for sub 20.

For those of you that do not agree with the CIA and their interrogation tactics you should know that one of the “victims” that was waterboarded was a top Al Qaeda leader, Khalid Sheik Mohammad, who gave up critical information that helped to prevent a 9-11 type attack on Los Angeles. I don’t know about anyone else, but I would have resorted to much more extreme forms torture if they would have prevented 9-11. Now this administration and other “shameful Americans” want to prosecute the men that did their jobs and saved American lives. WOW!!!!!!!!

#241, will please name your source on how an attack on LA was prevented? I'm not sure that information is available publicly other than on the word of some people. We know what works at CF because of rigorous examination. Matters of national security can also withstand that kind of examination.

I think I did 60 push press, I know I did 40, but i was doing sets of 10 and lost count so I did 10 more to be sure, So I did 50 or 60, what ever.

Double unders were one at a time, shoulders and fore arms were spent.

KB were in 2 sets of 25.

Can't believe I thought I was in shape before I found Crossfit 1 week ago.

Scaling/subs as follows:

KTE – sub’d reverse crunches. (Yeah lame, but for the life of me, I can’t do KTE’s.)
Wall Ball – 10lb (heaviest I have)

Got through 8 burpees. By then I was whining, sobbing, quivering, and drooling uncontrollably. That and I couldn’t get off the floor anymore.
Time at termination – 30:31.3

22:40 as Rx'd (12 seconds off PR) but no 'butt ball' for wallball as in the PR time.

Felt better today than last few times. Jumping pullups, kettlebell swings, push press, and lunges unbroken.

Burpees were a little slow and wasted too much time in transitions...

It was a private Justice Department memo that was sent out on May 30 2005 and made public by the Obama administration on April 16 2009 you can read about it from a number of news sources. I prefer the drudge report, but in being fair and balanced you can also find it on the ACLU web sight.

29/M/219lbs/5'9"

one week anniversary of starting crossfit, so first Filthy Fifty, only I scaled down to a filthy fourty.

Subbed tucks for knees to elbows (too fat to get that far up), 45lb good mornings for back extensions, 40 lb db squat thrusts for wall balls, and tuck jumps for double unders.

37:40.

Miss Misty- you are doing great work!
FIT MOM Holy crap woman.....I gotta come train with you...I want to see your fit mom bod in action!!! You rock it hardcore.
2nd Filthy Fifty ever.
27:14 definitely can knock 2 minutes off by practicing K2E more and back ext which kicked my ass bigtime.
Cookie - are you seriously gonna do that 1LO stuff? gnarly

As Rx'd but subbed the following:

1.50 x 18" box jumps (all I had)
2.50 x sit-ups (anchored)
3.50 x 40lb push press
4.200 x single unders (wanted the skipping practise)

35:28

Also think I did 55 burpees, was kind of out of it. Wasn't doing too bad until I hit the wall ball and burpees finished me right off, think it took 8 minutes for the burpees.

M/39/6'1"/245

F/25/5'0"/122lbs

29:21

Everything as Rx'd ("man" weights, I suppose) except wall balls which I used 12lbs.

The slowest part for me was the knee to elbows. I hacked those out one at a time. This is the first time I've done the real thing and not subbed a reverse crunch on an incline bench.

Feelin' good. Happy to break 30mins.

PL
KB - 35# dumbbell

KTE - not so strict after 20

WB - with 8# ball - it's all the gym has, used the BJ bench as my butt gauge

Then the fun kicked in. My 4 year old has been doing the warmups with me on occassion and sometimes a few of the other WODs. Today she decided to do the filthy fours instead of fifties (she decided the number because she is four). With slight modifications she kicked butt. When she was done she went back for more jumping pullups, more burpees, more thrusters (sub for wall ball). She loves the burpees.

That is what it's all about....

For time:
50 Box jump, 24 inch box As Rx'd
50 Jumping pull-ups As Rx'd; 20-15-10-5
50 Kettlebell swings, 1 pood Subbed 35# dumbbell

50 Double unders As Rx'd; mostly 2's and 3's, some 5+'s

Time: 30:17 (Previous time: ~37:30)

I moved faster through most of the individual exercises than last time. Swings went much better, able to go straight thru 50. About 90 seconds faster than last time when I got thru lunges. K2Es still hard, but a couple minutes faster than last time. However, I had taped up my hand for the callous tear, and K2Es tore the tape right off by the end. Oh well, no damage done. Push presses also went better, but I think I was doing more like shoulder presses last time. Wall ball shots were harder this time, but last time I used the 10# ball, so no surprise there. Hit the wall (no pun intended) after these. Burpees were (at least) as bad as last time - took 5+ minutes to get 50 and was lightheaded and fighting off pukie throughout. (I still think burpees feel worse after you stop doing them than when you're actually doing them!) Last time I subbed tuck jumps - double unders seem harder if only because of the technique. It was a real mind game - it took me 4 or 5 tries to get the first 2 DUs. I was thinking I would never finish. Then I strung 7 together and my outlook improved greatly. Still, they took me ~ 4 minutes. Afterward, very fatigued, but no worse than last time. Nothing a large Quizno's sub, protein bar, and 32 oz. of Gatorade couldn't fix.

[Globogym fun - after my first 20 jumping PUs, this chick at the globogym tried to work in a set of cable crossover flies - taking up all the space under the pull-up bar - I'm like, "I have 30 left!" She's says, "I'll be quick." So I said, "B*tch, this is a timed event!" Okay, I only said that on the inside. Anyway, I couldn't decide whether to blow the 30 seconds or stop my watch - in the end I decided to stop my watch. So perhaps my time should be closer to 31 min. Funny thing was, she wasn't even doing her exercise correctly!]

Holy hell! Ive been doing the crossfit style workouts for about 2 months now and WOD for only 3 days and got my PR on the deadlift yesterday of 405#. Today was extremely hard, really bogged out after the 45# thrusters I did cause I had no wall ball. I finished though 31.18. Thanks crossfit its a blast!

HEY LESLIE and ADAM BRISBANE JUST POST YOUR FREAKIN TIMES EXAMPLE: 27:20 Short and sweet
LESLIE,I too am ashamed that you are an AMERICAN!
ADAM BRISBANE if your an aussie, need I remind you we saved your bum once already, keeping you from having a national language of japanese!
JUST POST TIMES and SHUT IT ALREADY

As Rx'd but subbed the following

Thruster @ 45# for wall ball
Back Extensions: I did these on a incline bench vs a GHD since I don't have access to one. Not sure if this counts less or not. I did have a full flexation and extension each time
Dumbbell Swing 35# for Kettle swing.

Time: 22:33

Everything was going great until Burpees OH MY LORD DO I HATE BURPEES! I only managed to get these done in sets of 10. I was dying towards then end.

All the practice for double unders paid off. Took a bit to get the rhythm but manage to crush them pretty fast. 25 and 25

Crushed the box jump nailed all 50 in a row. Did better than expected on the Kettle swing and thrusters.

Still really need work on my thruster technique.

365-385-400-410-420(PR)

in the last CFT, i one repped 405 so i'm really happy with a 15# increase on my PR. i'm also pretty happy b/c i tore my hamstring almost two weeks ago doing sprints and i havent really done any hamstring intensive wods since. i wasnt going to do the deads today but i said f**k it and went for it. it turned out to be a good day and i now have some confidence that i can start pushing my hamstring a little more so that im ready for my qualifier in three weeks.

As Rx'd (35# Dumbell for KB swings)

I was shooting for a sub 30 today and that plan went to crap as soon as I hit the Wall Balls. Burpees were worse, recovered a bit on DU's, still over 15 minutes to complete the final 150 reps. Pukey was a knockin'. At least I managed to leave a nice "sweat angel" on the gym floor during my recovery.

Cool Picture

Scaled to 20 reps to get it down under 20 minutes.
knees to air. Concentrated on good form especially for jumps and burpees. Will go for more reps next time.
14:30

as rx'd 34:49

pull-ups killed me, there is a faster way to get these done, I must learn it.

I would like to start by saying that I believe America to be the example for the rest of the world in all matters, any given group will either align with us or directly against us, this is the magnitude of the standard we have set for the rest of the world. I also believe that by issuing that standard we must abide by principles that are just and deliberately defined, mostly because that is exactly what those who would threaten Americans and our way of life would not do. I do not believe that torture is excusable, under any circumstances; I also do not believe that the actions taken by the men and women who protect us are torture. Any definition of torture that fails to designate torture as the sustained implementation of physical violence that does irreparable physical damage is a definition that has been fabricated to invoke a political response or to align its audience to a political view. Fear is everywhere around us, it is what aligns us with a code of civility and what conditions us to live within the boundaries of man-made laws that we would otherwise forgo for a position that would better suit us personally rather than as a society. The tactics that you continually reference as torture were in fact, the implementation of fear directed to invoke a specific response. Not the sustained application of physical violence that has left anyone maimed. Just as we do not steal or murder in part because of the fear of consequences, these terrorists supplied intelligence because they were afraid of the consequences. Some will argue that we live within the boundaries of law because we are civilized people, not out of fear; I would ask then why we don't just do away with the law and let civility stand on its own. We do not for the same reason we instill terror into those very few that would terrorize us all.

32:15 rx'd - Finally

Not nearly as good as last time, although I had a 12# ball and 18" box last time. Feeling better about the burpies, but not the KTE's.

New to crossfit - 3rd week. Had to break up into groups of exercises and into 25's until all was completed.

Push press = 1st set 45#, 2nd set 35#

Most WOD's as RX'd are geared to the elite or close to elite athlete and not everyone is expected to complete all WOD's as Rx'd.

Let scaling be your friend if you feel you cannot complete the WOD as RX'd

And there is always BrandX so you don't have to scale it yourself.

Your not alone when you say there is no way you can do a whole Rx'd WOD

27:58pr

As rx'd except subbed 150 single unders for double unders.

subbed hanging knee raises for knees to elbows
subbed tuck jumps for double unders
box jumps on 21 inch box

32:38 toughest WOD I have done in more than 60 days of CF

Wow!! Whoever produced that video did one hell of a job! It's awesome!! Makes me want to get out there and exercise right now! Bravo!

subbed db swings for kettle bell,subbed 45lbs thruster for wall ball, and subbed tuck jumps for du.

Its amazing to me that the same people who sit in their ivory towers are SIMPLY AGHAST because this country, in a time of war, uses "harsh" interrogation techniques. The people we are fighting, yes fighting, want to see our country and our ideals disappear. And please don't tell me that extracting life-saving information using water-boarding, or other methods undermines those ideals. If the bad guys win, NONE of those high blown ideals will survive.
What kills me is how the media, and this administration are trumpeting HOW we got information from the scum who would gladly kill us all, but not telling us WHAT information was garnered. It was through water-boarding that we discovered and prevented the attacks aimed at Los Angeles to name but one terrorist act. Many in this country have become so soft that they can't conceive what real evil is. The idea that these criminals were going to reveal their plans if we asked nicely is ludicrous. I guess if it was YOUR family blown up you might think differently. Or maybe not.
Obama likes to try to emulate Abraham Lincoln(a very cheap knockoff indeed), but he doesn't seem to know that Lincoln suspended Habeas Corpus and took many other measures while prosecuting the Civil War. THAT president understood that in a time of war, the niceties of peacetime may have to be temporarily suspended. The bad guys only respect power and take comfort in the navel gazing of you who are being protected from them.
I can only imagine the sinking morale of those who are on the front lines of this war as they see their efforts being undermined by a spineless, politically vindictive Congress and a clueless administration.

Many lessons learned today.
Short on time so skipped warmup. Felt all shorts of pulling and cramps by the 10th jumping pull up.

No matter how often I do burpess they are always like a huge sucker punch--they killed me.

Struggling with double unders, knocked out about 15 singles then subbed tuck jumps plus 200 single skips.

32:04
Subbed thursters for wall ball, 35lb. db for kb, and tuck jumps for double unders.

As Rx'ed

Burpees sucked the life out of me

Last time (Oct. 2008): 57:23
Today: 43:32

This time, real Knees-to-elbows (learning how to kip helps!), unbroken kb swings & back extensions, 22" box jump (20" last time). Last time I couldn't do double unders but this time I could (single double single double)

I'm a happy camper :)

ps. Thanks to all of you Sheepdogs out there putting it on the line for the flock. Some us can still tell the difference between the wolves and the dogs!

Yup it kicked my butt again... 31/M/5'4"/155

So did burpees :(

Okay, got my butt thoroughly kicked today. Everything was going fine until I hit the burpees. All of a sudden I could not continue - just could not move. I had to stop. I was able to resume after a while and finish up, but man...

as rx'd 28:14

Thanks for the information about the ACLU having those memos. The May 30, 2005, Office of Legal Counsel memo for CIA did not mention "Los Angeles" in the nifty search function in Adobe Reader. Maybe torture saved LA, but it's not there.

There is mention that the Office of Legal Counsel says that CIA finds "enhanced" techniques are "indispensable" providing "actionable" intelligence. That's on p. 11. Much of the page is redacted, however, and "actionable" may not be useful information. Might be. It would be better to have an example, but I couldn't find it, upon a quick inspection.

More rigor is called for. The people who serve our country deserve nothing less.

First time w the filthy fifty. Did it at 0600.

This is the most impressive and inspiring CrossFit video I've ever seen! The music and special effects intensify the heat of the competition. Does anyone know who did this video?

Favorite crossfit so far.

why did I do dead lifts first I don't know

uhhhh....not good...as rx'd 27:20 (PR by only 14 seconds, but it's still a PR, I guess I shouldn't complain).

Keeping it constantly varied though that's for sure. Exams have thrown the zone aside and for the past 3 days I have consumed more junk food than anyone ever should. I think one day I only had cookies for breakfast and lunch, whoops! Last night I only got 4 hours of sleep so I was going on fumes during the filthy. I guess not bad considering the circumstances. NEED TO BE BETTER NEXT TIME though, no excuses!

One more exam left! Looks like tomorrow's WOD will be on fumes again, staying up for a while.

Mine is sooo slow

47:00.1

subbed the double unders to 12 inch box jumps, not 24.

wall ball and burpees kicked my butt.

So, I got a PR and I used the 24 inch box which I've never done before on this workout. I was worried about my hips so I cut this in half. I have only been able to do high rep squats and burpees without too much pain since this week so I was scared to overdo it. I totally feel like I wimped out though. :( I was really pissed off at the end when I couldn't string 2 double unders together. So, I rested for 2 minutes and did:

24 consecutive double unders
~ 1 min rest
WallBall, 14# x 10
~ 1 min rest
37 consecutive double unders

Practiced thrusters
45x3

Still quite wobbly on the front squat

Overtraining?

29:14, only got five burpees in before I decided to call it. Everything was done as RX'd; however, feel like I've been overreaching lately and with my diet, I don't want to risk wearing myself out.

So, started working on my nutrition and sleep habits, going to take some time for my body to recover.

Did everything as Rxed-- all rx weights, box jump height, full burpees, double unders etc. Skinned my leg during the first 10 box jumps at the beginning- which hurt.

I think this my first WOD where I just lay on the ground exhausted. Unfortunately, I still had 30 burpees and the last set to still go. So I got up and knocked the rest out and hit the ground again. No way could I even think of experimenting with double unders after that. 8" box jump was all I could think of. Even that was jump up, step down in that last set.

I think knees to elbows is going to hurt in weird places tomorrow. I was wondering where the situps were in this one. Now I know..

#260 Cliff - When did you play Navy soccer? I was on the crew team... just quit actually to see if I can get myself in better shape doing this than anything they ever could do for me.

#272 julie - Thanks, you did awesome! I want to be you. Haha, I'm sure I'll get better soon. I think I'm going to scale things down a little starting with the next workout so that I can have the satisfaction of completing each and every exercise as well as not killing myself completely on one thing.

Comment #49 - Leslie
Why are you embarrassed because someone that lives in the same country as you did something you disagree with? Would you be embarrassed as a North American if a Canadian soldier tortured someone, what about as a woman if it was a woman torturing? I live in Chicago, if I felt embarrassed for everything done in the name of government around here I'd could never leave my place. Take responsibility for your own actions and don't worry about stuff beyond your control. If you want to be embarrassed be about embarrassed about letting the IRS take advantage of you last week.

Time: 38:03. Box jumps to 18 inch box. Subbed Box jumps for Double Unders. Legs incredibly sore from squats yesterday.

Today was my first crossfit WOD attempt ever. Needless to say, I didn't do all of it, but I did my best:

50 Box jumps in two sets of 25 on an aerobic step with six purple plastic thingies under each side (18"? 20"?)
15 Pure Negatives Pull-ups
50 Kettlebell swings in two sets of 25
50 Back Extensions hugging 10# plate
50 Air Squats for Wall Ball (can't do it at my gym either)
15 Burpees
50 Inverted Burpees for Double Under in five sets of 10

Time: hahaha...uh...about an hour, probably

Subbed 30 K2E (all others to 50 except DU's), 2X20's dumbbell thrusters, Single jumprope 5:1 (250).

This was my first try at this. I felt really good going through the first few exercises, but I absolutley hit a wall. Well . . . pleanty of room to improve I guess.

43:33

Sucked - really - 39 minutes - 55 reps of each

Leslie,

All the current definitions of torture are relative and subjective. Without an objective defintion of torture the most important part of the conversation doesn't take place: the defining of terms. Give me an absolute definition and maybe then a conversation can begin to take place.

Other than that I will leave you, Leslie, and all the other hippies with the following:

"I will not be PUNKED, and I will not let you be PUNKED either, even if you are too stupid to see it or too weak-willed to do anything about it..." – (email me or google it if you really want to know)

Did the wod immediately after completing the following 1 rep sets of deadlifts: 135/225/315/405/420(PR)/225.

Felt strong on the deadlifts; felt weak on the wod. Not a strong showing. My biggest opportunities to shave time off are in my knees to elbows, burpees, and double unders. Together, these three movements accounted for about 1/2 of my time on this wod. Did this workout in 26:15 on 081219 - need to beat this time next time.

Mama and the kids did PE at the YMCA today.

a few seconds better than last time. I was spent by the time I got to the burpees (one at a time). Couldn't find my speed rope so I had to use a beaded one.

I intended to blow off the wod to surf but my board broke before I got any rides. The Mugu wave is no joke!

The knees/elbows and burpees killed me. Took me 51m. But 15m of that was spent with two attacks of vomit and dry heaves.

That was two hours ago. I feel awesome right now.

TIME: 23:47 I was dying!!!

First time with the WOD.
I was VERY nervous and scared.
I scaled it to 25 of everything EXCEPT for the walking lunches and back extensions, which i did as Rx'd. The wall balls with a 14lbs (gym did not have the Rx'd)and the burpees were UGGGGLY!!! but hell i'll count them!
I sub the double unders for 65lbs stiff deadlift -mainly because i had no idea what was a "double under".

34:01

27:45
Bummed to see all the torture apologists.

27:04 as rxd except 100 singles for double unders
last time 37 minutes. took bout 10 min on burpees this time and took 13 min on burpees first time. have lost 20 pounds thanks to zone diet since last time we did this wod and it helped shave 10 min off. very pleased

If anyone is living in East Texas around the Kilgore, TX area there is now a crossfit gym as of like last month. Email me if ya want info.

anyway, was looking forward to this WOD but our air force DEP commander's call had other plans.

three crossfit guys came and ran our squad of 55 trainees through their own WOD. Was freaking awesome getting to do a workout with so many people.

25:05 was time... i can't remember all the weights and reps but we did 5 rounds for time of

20 box jumps 24 inches
10 push press 95 lbs
sprint around field (150-200 meters??)
15or20 kettle bell swings, don't remember
10 pullups

loved this and glad that crossfit will get its name out finally in my community.

As Rx'd as per "pack" level
14:38 may have been longer/shorter had to keep stopping to share pull up bars...burpees suck!

27:52 as rx'd, 4:30 faster than last time.

Wall balls were slow, but Burpees were the killer, spent what seemed like 7 min on those.

k2e's killed me. and i had like one inch of slack in my arms for jumping pull-ups so it was all back and no legs which meant they took me forever.

M/21/70"/185

First Filthy Fifty
~40 min (Equipment too spread out in my gym)

Forgot about walking lunges and had to do them after burpees.

Only sub was tuck jumps.

Pukie says hi.

M/21/68"/200 34:19
first X fit workout ever

beer and pizza warm up

sub 20" box, 45 thrusters, tuck jumps

29:24

beer and pizza both stayed down

Started the back extensions at 15 minutes and hit my wall. Got dizzy and pukie was coming. At the end of the BE I was at 19:54 minutes and my back was tight/cramped up. I called it there.

32:48. Those wall balls....wow. That was where I almost bonked. It felt ridiculously good when I was done though!

As rx'd

39:13

Pull-ups were all kipping since I couldn't get a platform over to the bar for my vertically challenged butt to do the jumping pull-up. Ofcourse, since it took me for freaking ever to get to them, the wall-ball shots sucked partially because I had to listen to the Y's step class instructor shout encouragement to the soothingly soulful sounds of ABBA. Now I am not Abba bashing, but they are a bit of a let down after doing most of the WoD with Dope and Static-X. Oh, the other part that made the wall-ball shots, and really everything after the first box jump, suck is the fact that the Filthy-Fifty is simply a kick in the groin WoD.

For time:
50 Box jump, 24 inch box
50 Jumping pull-ups
50 Kettlebell swings, 1 pood
Walking Lunge, 50 steps
50 Knees to elbows
50 Push press, 45 pounds
50 Back extensions
50 Wall ball shots, 20 pound ball
25 Burpees
25 Double unders

Time - 35:45

This WOD was brutal. I only had ten minutes to finish wall balls, burpees, and double unders before work, so I decided to scale the burpees and double unders. Luckily, I was able to avoid 50 more reps. I still got in a great workout though. Thanks CrossFit!

Definitely room for improvement, Im looking forward to it!
Finished off the day with some back squats. 5-5-5 @ 115,135,155.

I was on a tight schedule. So I started this one off in a rush. By the time I got to the Burpees I thought my legs were going to fall off. I didn't make it to the burpees or doubles unders but I did do a 5 min jog. Sorry guys I tried. Around 41 mins with the jog.

holy crap i really finished,. sub'd thruster @ 45lbs for wall ball. finish in 52m16s, and i threw up. killer work out. now i gotta clean up my mess!

Hey you got through it!!!! good for you! We all have room to improve, that's why we're here, right?

32:05 first filthy fifty and it was a gut check.

started out great def hit a wall when it came to the burpees completed all 50 though and I def couldnt do double uners before yester but I de pulled 50 double unders out of my ass. And forgot back extensions. Was whooped after that one great workout though.

1:01 on first attempt ever at this workout. KTE's are reeeeediculous!!!

We did it in two rounds dont know if that is allowed. only had a 1 ft box
29 min
niki did 32 min but had to scale some of the exercises (her third wod I think)

28/m/79kg

29:52

Subbed:
- Superman flutter kicks for back extension
- DB for KB swing
- 20kg thruster for WB

About 1 min slower. Think the box jumps were set higher than last time. The bar for jumping pull ups were definitely higher (too high) compared to last time. Well paced overall but significant slowdown on burpees. KTE more solid.

27:15
Rxd
could do sub 25 if i can ever get my double unders to click. burpees were the hardest.

22:18... subbed WBshots for 45lb thrusters(no 20lb medball), subbed back extensions for supermans(no GHD).

33:57 with some substitutions.

Did 35# dumbbell instead of KB. Did 45# thruster instead of wall ball. All else as rx'd. Thrusters and burpees took it right out of me and made the DUs hard to do. Good push though. Goal next time is to beat Mott.

3rd week crossfit, 1st time Filthy Fifty, this workout got me good.. wanted to quit twice and almost puked twice but my wife who has been doing crossfit for a while now was doing it alongside me and she wouldn't let me not finish

box jumps, jumping pu's, swings, lunges all weren't so bad. knees to elbows were tough and from then on out i was toast. burpees were BRUTAL. found out i got the knack for double unders did sets of 18, 17 and 15 and if i wasn't so dang tired probably could have knocked them out straight.

starting to really dig this crossfit thing

Time: 40:42 (PR)

Last time I did this I only got 20 burpees in at 32:56. I was at the same point this time at 32:11. So I guess that means some slight improvement not to mention the fact that I actually finished. All those things plus it being 3 AM after getting up at 6 AM yesterday I'd say not too shabby.

I think I just threw up in my mouth a little bit! Still trying to get back in shape after riding the Tubby Train downrange.

finished it in 35:28 mins. it really kicked my butt....im ready for the next workout though ...bring it on

29:15
Did full pull ups instead of jumping pull ups.
Used 1.5 pood instead of 1 pood.
Used 88lbs (40kg) instead of 45lbs for push press.
Unfortunately only had a 7lbs med ball.
Felt real bad come the back extensions, but passed as I moved onto the burpees and double unders.

as rx'd= 29:49 (except knee to elbows, I don't have hanging straps so I hung on pull up bar and did them to my chest not sure about how much difference it made seemed harder because my grip kept failing)

Burpee's took over 8 minutes to complete, I gased at the burpee's. I was at 17 minutes and a few seconds when I started the burpee's and was over 25 minutes when I finished them. Which means I was doing less than 6 a minute that is pretty bad. Should have been about 24 minutes total. Better next time I hope.

No warm up.

Only got to the end of the back extensions at 35 minutes, then had to call it quits. I actually did the full jumping pull-ups AND knees-to-elbows, which is new. Not having a warm up, though, was a bad decision.

No medicine ball, so subbed 20# DB thrusters. Double unders were single unders. I was happy just to finish. On the plus side, my KtE's are coming along quite nicely. Also used a Roman seat for the back extensions. Harder than the apparatus at my regular gym.

first time doing this at home. subbed 45lb good mornings for back extensions. had to stack all my bumpers and 4 iron 45's to make a 24" box. I put an extra piece of 1" pipe i had laying around through the holes to hold it all together. it worked perfect. then I threw the 45lb and one 35 lb bumpers down under my pullup bar. the time is the same as my last time at the gym, but I realized that the gym's step i was using was lower than 24" and their ball is only 15lbs, so this is a PR.

I really gassed on this one, just didn't have the strength to push through and hold a good pace. Been working more than usual lately, that's probably why I ran outta juice.

No matter the time though, any day that I get in the gym is a good day. I feel great. I love you CFNation!

30# Wallball

Time: 31:20

I'm amazed at how fickle my times are. Not sure if this was a diet problem today or a result of doing two WODs back to back. Whatever it was, I did the first 3 exercises in under 4 minutes, thought I was on track, then I died. Nowhere to go but up.

45# thruster, tuck jumps

filthy 50 w/ the following subs:

time: 18:19(pr by 7 min) - totally shocked when I saw the time. the double-under practice has made all the difference. kte's def need work though. It also helped that the lil' lady (Keira) was suffering through it w/me to provide a push.

Keira: subbed jumps for step-ups, roman chair knees to chest for kte, 15# swings, 10# db thrusters and scaled reps to 40 (30 for burpees)and single jumps for du's.

I felt really strong all the way through the lunges, started breaking up the PPs (really gotta stop doing that) and then died on the burpees and wall balls. Wall balls, burpees and tuck jumps were all broken into sets of five. Its a time destroyer. It feels like i have to break it up but i am sure it's just a matter of will.

First time as RX'ed, all the other times I had a 12# medicine ball, this time I finally had the 20#.

Time - 58:51

absolutely hit the wall on the burpees. could only get 5-7 at a time, with long breaks in between. Felt totally gassed. Not sure if it's the diet, or do I just suck? have been trying to eat better, doing the zone, 18 blocks, 5/3/9 for breakfast and dinner, 4/3/9 for lunch and afternoon. 4 meals a day, deleted 6 carb blocks and added 18 fat blocks. have not been consistent (pasta, cake, and ice cream last weekend), so hard to tell if it's working or not. Also upped my fish oil dose to 4 grams per day. Need to really dial all of this in, so that I can tell if it's working. I worry about not eating enough carbs, but then after reading various articles, I decided to do the carb/fat switch, as recommened by Robb Wolf. Well, we will see where this takes us.

(done 4/29 after a rest day)
27:15...159/173
Scaled to 25 reps. Used 20" box jump, 35# plate for swings, Oly bar good mornings, & true double-unders (about every 3rd rope swing). Felt good but a far cry from the days of doing the actual 50 reps.

missd this one- go back another date!

I first read about this workout in a magazine. Tried it one time not knowing anything about cross fit. It took me and my buddy 2 and a half hours to complete. We would do this every monday and then our regular workouts during the rest of the week. By the fifth month we did the entire filthy fifty working around other people in the gym in 56 minutes. For us that was awesome. I am

2nd week of crossfit, first filthy 50.

As RX'd may have been a bad idea, but:

20:51 through back extensions
10:00 praying for sweet release of death which never came
7:44 remaining 3 exercises
all as RX'd except I only had a 12# ball so I did an extra 25 reps.
Curious if I'll be mobile tomorrow...

23:10

M/35/5'5/155lbs

All RX'D with kipping pull ups

As rx'd 18:07

This was my first time. I took small breaks as my HR was through the roof. Did not do all exercises since we do not have some equipment here. Took notes, will do the same next week on a rest day to map my progress. Excellent workout!!!
