Been waitin for this one to come back up! Gotta love the heavier stuff...
Nice WOD. Wish I was a big enough boy to go rx'd. Maybe someday.
liking this workout minus the fact i'll have to scale weight
yeah, now I can go to bed... Gonna have fun in the AM.
thank goodness... Let's get to it!
Just made up Filthy 50 from the other day.
Yikes - luckily I scaled it to 35, since it was my first attempt. Things were going well until K2E - those stink. Back extensions were rough since they were on a Swiss ball. Then Burpees ... ugh - those were BRUTAL! Been doing CrossFit for 2 months now, first time I've done burpees.
Finished with 135 singles on the rope - legs didn't have enough for doubles. First mark on the board at 33:38.
Feeling better now after a few hours, but upon completion, felt worse than after the string of Hero workouts a few weeks ago - and I scaled this down.
I've done a slightly scaled "300" workout before, several times (found it before CrossFit) - which has its own challenges - pullups and slightly heavier lifts, but the Burpees make the 50 (35) a bit more difficult, imho.
well i am excited for this but my rest day is tommorow hope my newly ripped up hand will hold up to this on friday!

BrandX Pack Scaling:
Men 95#/ Women 75#
I plan on crushing myself at 6AM tomorrow :)
Giddy UP!
This is a deceiving workout. Seems like it will not be so bad, but after the first round I remember from the last time I was struggling. Tough workout, looking forward to it.
anyone got advice to tape up some newly ripped callus' ? i wanna partake in this baaaddd
Did this today with my lifting partner @ 135 since tomorrow is our rest day. Love to hate this one. Been doing X-fit for 18 months and have never felt better. If everyone tried this, we wouldn't be a big fat nation with exploding health care costs. Want change, change to Crossfit!
Looking forward to this, playing golf instead tomorrow. Friday will hit this one with gusto.
D-wreck, I wear mtn bike gloves. Feels odd but it will save your hands. I also alternate my grip on the deadlifts. One palm facing out, one palm in.
Somehow i don't recall ever doing this but apparently I did according to the compare to date. I also sucked at it. I have no doubt in my mind that i will do tremendously better at this tomorrow :) I feel ready
sweet ill give it a shot at least the bleeding will stay contained haha!
Forgot to add,
Excellent effort and show put on by Tall Karl in the vid. I'll use that as a little extra motivation in addition to DT's sacrifice to not slack and truly do this Hero WOD in a time it deserves. Well done
#23... which makes it even harder.
Karls whole power regime looked weak. With more explosion he could really rock those cleans and the jerk... more explosion... from someone 5'2" it might be easy to say, but Karl has 1.5 feet on me.
love the beautiful san francisco summer weather--60 and foggy in the video.
this was my first crossfit workout ever. i did it at 135. it took me 26 minutes. i couldnt move or make complete sentences for the next hour. im so pumped right now. cant wait for 2moro
Tall Karl was at my Level 1 Cert in March...at least I think he was. Nice work either way big guy.
#23 - whats the difference between a push press and a push jerk? i can't tell the difference.
thanks
I finally got a 200lb deadlift!! in fact..... I PRd @#205 tonight thanks to my 13 year old being in my face :)
135-155-175-185-195(old pr)-200!!- 205 new PR!
My daughter and i high-fived and jumped around like crazy people. So glad she was there to share it with me :)
Oh man wish I was on the West Coast to go to a free Dr. Sears Seminar!! Somebody take good notes, I have a couple questions I would love to ask him!
Anthony
Wow, still very sore from DLs on Monday. I guess I'll stretch tonight and tomorrow morning and then move the workout to the afternoon.
If I attacked my whole day like do cf I'd be rich!!!
m/32/6'0"/230
This looks awesome. Gonna shoot for the rx'd weight, but will not feel too terrible if i need to scale it back on the later sets. Still new to CF, and to the power-lifting exercises, so better safe than sorry. Thanks Coach, see y'all in the morning!
"whats the difference between a push press and a push jerk? i can't tell the difference."
push jerk doesn't have a press. You jump the weight and extend your arms by droping down, not pressing it up. He's jumping the weight and then extending his arms, push press.
#40 - bingo. Thanks charlie.
I'm surprised so many people are bashing on Dr. Sears considering an overwhelming amount of you (us) would swear or stand by the Zone diet. Not really necessary my friends
looking to go to SFAS. I think crossfit will help me out alot.
#35
The difference between a push press/jerk is for both of them you dip to get the weight above your head, but on the jerk you also land in a "dipped" position, whereas the press you do not.
Hope that helps
I'm gonna try this WOD while wearing rollerskates to make it a tad bit more challenging.
Thanks Playoff Beard! Yeah, I definitely remember you from our Cert back at Aromas. What a great weekend that was! You've been doing a great job holding it down here on the boards. I always enjoy reading your comments.
Looks like a fun one for tomorrow!
good news is that this one is on the first day of the WOD cycle when people are fresh.
this one sucks your soul and is super tough on the grip.
Newbies, go easy on the chalk on this one - otherwise you'll pull your hands to shreds
Hey Karl, are you the one who did 2 minutes of double unders? If that was you, that was an amazing video.
We are signed up for the Zone Seminar......Cant wait!
Karls form? Whatever...he has a great attitude!
Watch this guy, the subtle guys are the most dangerous.
im pumped, this is a work out geared to my strengths. hopefully i can post a good time!
jealous, I want to go to B. Sears
Frat...
Great energy from the FRAT today. Pony ready to crush it at the crack of dawn, Cookie crunching on a 205# YES!!, Cougar Hunter educating the Board, and Beard giving props to a big man among us... now why wouldn't you feel the CrossFit love??
DT, in honor and thanks. 3-2-1 Hero. Go get some!
KARL....GOOD JOB !!!!! Good form mister
Karl, Magnificent! This workout is brutal. That was a great time.
Lol @ serendipity. Today I got a couple I Zone books from the library - gotta find a better way to fuel the body for XF and Krav. Gotta find a way to be at the seminar.
Can't do this WOD. Still working on shoulder strength after SLAP shoulder surgery. Good luck to all! I get very inspired bybreading everyone's work outs.
Cookie, I'm very proud of you!!! Not just a 200# DL, but following it with 205? F*@$ yeah!
And calling Dr. Sears any names is reserved for Robb Wolf. :)
Frat...
Just got done watching the DT vid with Tall Karl and he is as kind as he is tall and humble. Great spirit, good luck making it to the 2010 Games! Check out the two classic moments with a passerby and Sevan's counting skills and hear Karl's reply.
"SLAP"
Comment #57 - Posted by: Jenn
How long ago was the surgery, and what protocol are you using to build strength back?
Tall Karl, monstrous time for that WOD. And the length of the bar path for tall guys like you is no joke! I'm glad I'm under 6 feet :)
It's unfortunate that more folks don't know that the pic is of Dr. Barry Sears, the creator of "The Zone Diet". I'll be there on August 8th to listen to him speak about The Zone and Crossfit. See ya there :-) Olympic Crossfit is a big proponent of both.
Have Fun, Train hard,
Billy
Karl, great attitude, nice work :-)
Have Fun, Train Hard,
Billy
congratulations Karl, for your awesome time and your terrific attitude.
I signed up for the Zone seminar! Billy, I'll be glad to finally meet you :)
Who else is going?
Frat,
For real. Thanks for the positive feedback. It really means a lot to me. As most of you, I've got nothing but respect for any other CFer who puts forth 110% into each WOD. Ever since I started CF I've noticed one of its biggest assets is its community.
Like Billy said, have fun, train hard!
Hey Rachel thanks for the great Tabata WOD today and opening your doors at CrossFit 949 to me! See ya soon!
ouch just kept losing my grip on those hang power cleans..1
had to scale but still couldnt complete it

i might or might not do this tomorrow. Im going to visit CF brethren and hopefully get my 1st ring muscle up! if not today then friday for sure because thats when i should be getting my rogue do wins in the mail! I want Khalipa to put his autograph on em so i can call em my Khalipas! Stompin in my Khalis in Cali! ;)
R.I.P SSGT Davis thank you for your service and your sacrifice. It's not unnoticed.
This is both my favourite and more bitter sweet thing about Crossfit. Honouring those who put humanity before their own lives in hopes to make a better world for all of us.
If only we lived in a world where we didn't need hero WODs. :-\
Cookie - Congradulations on the DL PR.
I remember this WOD. I started with 135# and had to use 115#. There is no way I could do this with 155#.
I think I might skip this and go to Crossfit Avalanch at Lake Tahoe instead.
I had my first BJJ session today and I feel like a complete beginer at something again. Great. Something super hard to get good at!
Hit it hard FRAT!
I cannot believe there are people here who don't know who Barry Sears is. Can anyone tell me where Tustin is? I would love to go to this seminar not sure if I can swing it though.
Way to go Tall Karl. Great attitude. Keep up the good work.

I hit this in 6:40 as rx'd last time out. But after an AMRAP workout with 185lbs power cleans and a 3x7 Power Snatch WOD this week, I think this can wait a few more days! My traps have disintegrated!
Love the WOD though!
As Rx'd, being a dipsh*t and taking way too much "rest," 14:00
First time doing this, so I wanted to "feel it out"....will push the pace way harder next time.
Then did incline barbell presses, bodyweight (205lbs,) 3 reps, every 30 seconds until I couldn't complete the reps.....got up to around set 20 and someone rudely started talking to me mid workout.....so that was that.
Why go to a Zone cert...buy the book. Heck of a lot cheaper. Stop milking people for money in a recession.
Yes, I realize the "cert" is free, but getting to CA if you don't live there...isn't.

Next time sub 17. Woulda had it this time but my grip slipped on the 4th round of HPC and the bar went flying outta my hands. The wrist wasn't feeling too good after that.
Deadlifts no problem, push jerks were good all unbroken. HPCs were the killer again though.
can't wait nice job Karl!!!
****Disclaimer****
This is not a critism, as my form sucks, just a question to learn "Was Tall Karl's push jerk more a push press?
I checked the PJ demo did the WOD before watching Tall Karl's. It is a much different effort.
what?
deadlifts?
what?
my back is still mad from Tuesday's max...

Maybe you should accesorize with some of those 80's workout-video-sweatin-to-the-oldies-style wrist bands, to keep the sweat from running onto your hands. Might go nicely with the socks.

#96 starkey,
Many of Karl's push jerks were pressed out at the end, putting them in between presses and jerks. For most metcon workouts, good form is not required for each rep, just full range of motion. When you fatigue, it becomes hard to do a proper jerk, and, in the case of Grace, a proper clean and jerk is not as fast as a power clean and push press. In short, you'll see a lot of people doing presses for jerks, and for a majority of people doing CrossFit, this is fine.
After the Deadlifts and Barbell Bear Complex a day ago, I was a little tight today. After a good CF warm up though I surprised the hell out of myself.]

Carter Nyman- you could do either, I always split jerk because that ensures that I really get under the bar. Otherwise its too easy to degenerate into a Push Press. It does slow you down a bit, cause then you hafta step together and stand up. I'd rather do it right and a bit slower overall time, but thats me. Just remember to switch up your legs :)

Did a beast of a WOD at Hybrid Athletics in Stamford, CT last night (best box of all time, by the way). Told myself I'd take a rest day today... But I'm not missing DT. Rest is for the weak. This is going to be EXTRA-painful!
#119 Thanks for the help! I will do the split jerk because last WOD they turned into a PP instead of jerk.
Comment #13 - Posted by: D-wreck
Ripped up hands? Two words: Hockey Tape. Pick up some white cloth hockey tape (not friction or clear tape). You can get it at a proshop or someplace like Sports Authority.
Also, I usually throw on a couple coats of New Skin over my blisters before I tape them up. You can get a bottle for a couple bucks at CVS. Hurts like hell when you first put it on, but it works.

that really hurt, but really glad I wasn't forced to scale back
Started crossfit about 10 months ago. I dont remember this WOD, but I probably have done it. I am going to scale it to 135lbs so I can take less breaks. cant wait to get to it. today is my rest day so DT will be a nice start to my weekend.
pack scaled 95#
17:22. would have liked to just scale my cleans and PJ's but switching out weight would have been costly timewise at my globo gym.
m47 205# 6'0"
Only three rounds, but weights at RX: 12:20. The wheels fell off fast today and the weight felt unusually heavy.
But I don't feel least bit bummed because I got my first muscle up Friday and did five more this morning while warming up. Two years of working towards this pays off and I have the good people at Crossfit Cape Cod to thank. I dropped into their gym on vacation last week and they were great. I'd still be struggling without Tim's help. And thanks to Mark, Sarah, Nicole, too. Everyone there was so welcoming and helpful.
started at 135, got through deadlifts and half of cleans, then i went to 115 and got though first 2 rounds, then had to go to 100.
24:00, can't wait to do it again without switching weights so much, maybe next time ill go Rx'd
Scaled to 111# - sore knee and shoulders.
14:46
Scaled to 105#, 20:00. Getting great at HPC's. Needless to say, these were the easiest...ummm, right. Doing this WOD in a Brooklyn basement globogym in mid July w/o chalk = fun times. Not kidding, actually. Love the sweat, but grip is fried. Lost track of my set count midway through the fourth--when you need to DL to do the HPC's, and then HPC to get into the push jerk...it all kind of gets blurry. Freaking great WOD. Can't wait for the next one.
M 30 185 5'8"
Turned 30 today. Have been doing xfit for 2 weeks and love it. Did wod RX'D 18:02.
There's a good question for somebody. If I am so tired on the fifth round that I have to do my power cleans as singles, setting it down and picking it up each time, can I count the picking it up towards my deadlifts?
(Note: do not answer, I'm kidding)

Nice vid - although I believe he missed a rep on the first set of HPC. Awesome though!
Quick question for everyone. I can't do dips to save my life. I do them in my CFWU every single day I workout (3 on 1 off) and can typically get 5-10 the first round and then at most 5 the second and third round. When I was younger I couldn't do many despite being a collegiate level swimmer. I am getting pretty frustrated at this point as this is a major component of muscle ups, a skill I would like to get under my belt. Any thoughts? I have been trying to focus on these but just can't seem to get anywhere.
hey everyone what do you think about a to g squats with the same weight as a sub for deads? Just did the previous workout yesterday

17:06, definately need HPC work...they suck! Had to break last set into thirds.
Pack scaled 110# (50kg instead of 70kg).

Easy deadlifts, pretty easy push jerks (never done before, went well in 2x3 sets) and hang power clean still needs work.

I am quite embarassed by my scores for CF so far (although it is only my first week), especially given my job. I'll divulge that perhaps after a few weeks of this.
I had to scale this down a little. There was no way I could do 155#. My grip is always the first thing to go too - this really does need working on.

Two points I would like to make.
1: I told you before, all scores/weights/times are welcome here.
2: I plan to do this at 95#, quit making me feel weak.
Robb Wolf at July 23, 2009 8:32 AM

I am a little annoyed with my performance so far because I am supposed to be one of life's...."warriors". I do think that CF is quite incredible though and should have started this a long time agao when I found about it.

I need to work on my cleans or I'd be set.
After getting used to seeing all these hardcore athletes going at it for each WOD posting, I laughed out loud when I saw this one of Dr. Sears in a tie talking on the phone.
DT scares me, never done it.

Hey, man, don't worry. I'm busting your chops.
I am NOT one of life's warriors,hen I was a kid I wanted to be a ninja, but that was a symptom of too much time watching Kung-Fu Theater. I don't watch t.v. any longer. Strangely enough, I still want to be a ninja.
M/36/5'10/182
Still in shoulder rehab mode, taking Herm's advice and going light.
Did 9 sets of 9 HPC at 105#, really worked on my form. Also did some light kettlebell work. Shoulder is feeling much better, can't wait to get barbells back overhead!

I did a 900 mile cycle a month ago and throughout all the training for that and the event itself I appear to have lost a huge amount of strength.
I am very impressed with the CF community though.

Post #52 Herm
Herm - my DOS is 04Feb09. My PT devised work simulating moves for me to return to work 23 weeks after surgery (being able to lift 50# overhead, push pull 200# and kick people's arses) Heavily modified XF moves and Krav conditioning got me there faster than other patients. I've been using PVC pipe for far too long. I know use pain and tightening as my indicators to modify - and friends & coaches who yell at me if I don't.
I doubt that helps but good luck with your rehab. I'm hoping to keep my right shoulder healthy 'cuz I never want to do this again.
?? I'm setting up my garage gym and can buy a used, standard 45lb barbell (or several) for $65 or less. (some globo gym is going out of business.) I'm planning to order some bumper plates. Do I need a special barbell for bumper plates or will this standard one work? Seems like a good buy compared to $200-$300. Please comment, thanks.
scaled down to 70lbs. 16:00. Pathetic I know, but you gotta start somewhere. I've logged it. I'll look back one day and laugh at it.

I thought I have to do something else beside this wod today. Tight, tender, and swollen shoulders that make the cleans extra difficult.
About to go this one a try at Rx, also Beer is a big no no on the Zone diet I'm guessing?
This was my first "real" WOD in a month due to militay transfer. i been doing travel WOD's, but there just not the same. The base i am at now doesn't have xfit eqpmt in the gym, but I am just happy to have any at all, so i will make do.

155 for first set of DL and first 5 reps of HPC, then 135 for remainder. Could have put 155 back on for remainder of DL and Push Jerks, but didn't want to think that much... Also - was able to go from final HPC to unbroken push jerks this way.
Scaled to 135# 23:10
Hardest was the HPC by far, couldn't get enough speed from the hang. Had to do singles from the floor and really focus on exploding with the shrug for rounds 2-5. Had to tape my thumbs mid WOD, callus under pinky ripped.
I came Evanston,IL to visit some friends and stopped by a local big-box health club to get in a WOD. Tons of useless equipment, but I cheered-up seeing a good set of kettlebells and a climbing wall. Not a gym I'd spend much time inside but I figured I could get a few decent WODs on my visit to IL.
Imagine my surprise when I enter the "free weight" area and see a large sign stating:
"NO DEAD LIFTING and NO POWER CLEANS permitted in weight room"
Seriously, you can't make this up.
I inquired how they expected one to lift a barbell off of the floor?
The staff looked stunned that I would ask such an outrageous question.

The deadlifts were definitely the ‘rest’ for me. I partitioned them in the last 3 rounds into 10-2 to rest my grip in the hopes that I wouldn’t have to set the bar down during the HPCs, but it didn’t save me in rounds 4 and 5 where I had to partition the HPCs into 6-3, then 5-4. The Push-Jerks were unpartitioned. The HPCs went up pretty well and I noticed that I had a narrower deadlift grip at around round 2 and switched it out to make the bar travel a little shorter for the cleans which helped in round 3 till my legs ran out of gas in round 4. grin

if you had followed your childhood dream and become a ninja, then there is no way Herm would have been able to poke you in the chest... And your ninja reflexes would have avoided the cataclismic chain of events that eventually ended with Herm's shoulder being hurt. It just makes one wonder...

My forearms are killing me, my grip is shot. I pounded my collar bones, I'm suprised I'm not bleeding.

hey guys. i've been doing crossfit for about five months and am having difficulty with cleans (mostly just transferring the bar and getting under without it being a reverse curl)usually when WODS like this come up, I modify and practice cleans afterwards. today I would do 5 rds of 12 DL and 12 push jerk at 65 or 75#
any suggestions/help with the clean would be appreciated!
monemon at July 23, 2009 11:32 AM
I found the learning method described in Rippetoe's "Starting Strength" to be very helpful. I haven't seen the video that goes with it, but I hear much good about it. Also, there is the barbell certification, where power cleans are taught, and the olympic lift certification, both of which I want to go to.
monemon at July 23, 2009 11:32 AM
I am assuming, here, that you already looked at the instructional videos on this site.

Once the heat dies down, I'l return unnoticed and complete the WOD. Ninja 101

after lunch went back and did three rounds of 9/6/3 at 115lbs.
Deadlifts went really easy. Could have easily have done the 155lbs but hang power cleans and push jerks really hurt my achilles...... Just not feeling it today.
i have watched some of the videos on this site and worked with others on this lift but it seems that my elbows are still too slow and do not whip under the bar

found it easier to finish the push jerks and go straight into the next round of deadlifts. i struggled with the hang cleans and by round 3 i had to break them into sets of 3, catch my breath for a few seconds, then clean it from the floor. that was a waste of time and energy. will try to keep them unbroken next time.
Hero workouts are important to me because if someone is willing to laydown their life for our country, the least i can do if pound through the workout. god bless all our heros both in country and abroad!

As Rx'd. 32:30.
"DT" kicked my a**. Lessons of the day: humility and perseverence. Humility: I consider HPCs my strength, but these were a weak area in this WOD. From Rounds 3 on, I was getting 2's and 3's, and mostly singles on Round 5 (Perseverence). Deadlifts were the easy part (unbroken). For jerks, I actually did mostly split jerks, and was always able to get the first 3 or 4. I re-racked the weight in the middle of the jerks (as opposed to setting it down and cleaning it again).
I taped up my hands and wrists at outset. Retaped after Round 1. Tried to retape after Round 3, but I didn't have enough grip strength to rip the tape anymore - oh well. My form on HPCs deteriorated in later rounds, I really need to work on snapping the elbows through. "DT" has convinced me I need my own bumper plates - would have been great to drop this weight instead of lowering it every time.
Gonna be nice and sore tomorrow. I have a strawberry on my chest (catching the clean), some on my upper thighs (lowering from clean position), and even one on my nose (scraped it with the bar once on lowering from jerk position).
scaled 5 rounds
dead lifts 105 for 5 rounds 12 reps each
Hang clean 105,95,100,100,100
push jerk 105(5), 95,100(5),100
Now my question for all that know: In Crossfit is it better to stay at a weight were I cannot complete the reps or go down in weight to be able to finish all the reps?

first time with DT and i really like this workout. 155 is pushing my 1rm for hpc, hence the scaling. dl were unbroken 2 sets w/ a small break at 6 on the others. hpc's 5/4 and pj's unbroken all sets. grip trashed whole body still shaky.
As Rx: approximately 24:00
M/5'11''/199/28
Wondering everyones opinion. I did DT as Rx in around 24:00 but had to take a good number of breaks. Do you guys think this is a better approach, or should I go for a lighter weight that I can go straight through with in order to push the cardio. Does it just depend on my personal goals or is there a definate tempo in mind for DT?
Crikey!

Well helllllls yes, I like that kind of progress. Of course i still want way better than that...but for now i'll take it and be somewhat satisfied with myself.
The real issue seemed to be grip once again, though not as much as last time apparently. Deadlifts were easy, HPCs were not, and PJs weren't too bad either till the end. The humidity outside did not help the grip much on top of that, it might as well have been raining pretty much. I'm not complaining, just keeping record for next time :)

PR by :04! Straight gassed at the end of this one. I kept pacing myself at under 2:00 per round. It's amazing how quickly these consecutive lifts get you sucking wind.

Was not able to do the full WOD only 3 and a 1/3 rounds because I got to the gym late and they were getting close to closing. Scaled back a little for Hang Clean and Push Jerk (135). And I accidentally did Push Presses instead of Push Jerks. In summation I did a completely different WOD than RX'd, but I am going to post my time anyway because this is my reference for the next time I do this WOD.

Becuase of broken sets with HPC and setting bar down between each exercise I ended up doing many extra regular power cleans.

Damnit I just realized I misread the WOD and did full powercleans instead of HPC.
1st rd was w/155
Rest of it was scaled to 135
19:21 - Better than my list time, couldn't find it but I know it was 30 - something.
DL's and PJ's went unbroken. PC's went in sets of 5 transitioning directly into PJ's. Took waaaay too long of breaks.

As I was lowering the 6th PJ in the 4th round, I felt someting in my lower back go. I was not able to do round 5. I was on a nice track to PR. However it was not to be. This is my first weightlifting injury since my first cert back in Nov '07. I'm ok with that. I guess doing the Chipper from Hell (last WOD at the 09 games) yesterday didn't help this at all, being fatigued and all. Yesterdays w/o wasn't fun at all.

Very disappointed with this time. I am much stronger than when I did this in April. I was talking to the cool coaches Travis and Myles way too much during the WOD. It was almost a walk in the park. Last time it was hard at 15+ minutes with the same weight.
Then... Myles told me I would have do the RX'd weight next time. Now I'm scared. Back to my Globo for the next WOD.

Did this wod in 19:33 on 090414. Deadlifts were completely unbroken. First set of hang power cleans was unbroken; subsequent sets broken 5-4. First four sets of push jerks were unbroken; the fifth set was broken 3-3. Had a second bar set up and did my push jerks from a rack.
Cooled down with some selective stretching for my lower back.

I'm going to nickname this WOD "the punisher". If I had a rack this would have been much easier (is that fair?) Any break in a set resulted in an extra rep. unless I change grip for DL and could keep going from HPC to PJ. As it was I re-griped DL-HPC (extra DL); any stop in HPC another DL, oh God, any stop in PJ and I've got clean (DL+PC) to get back. This is one WOD you've got to go straight through the sets, rest if you have to between rounds. That said, I want 115 next time, 135 the next. Bring it.

I visited CF Brethren today. I tried for the ring Muscle-Up there but didn't get it. It was mostly because I went straight there from work and I'm used to settling in before working-out.
That being said, here's how it went:
We warmed up with a 1250 m row and the damper was on 8?!?
Then we did some stretching.
Then Lee did a demo of the lifts.
Then we found out what weight we were comfortable with.
Then we got to it.
I started out with the RX'd weight but quickly figured out it was too much weight (stupid weak arms) and went with 135. That was my threshold right there! If I was at 24, I probably would of scaled down further.
The atmosphere was more form based then time based so we got alot of rest breaks in between. DeadLifts were easy, HPCs were easy when I was able to double-time them but hard doing 1 at a time. I tend to use my torso more then getting my arms whipped faster is what Lee said. The PJs looked like PPs and I guess I don't know how to get under the bar and stick the landing.
I didn't wear gloves so both of my thumbs are cut, I know now that I'm not as strong as I think I am because I didn't wear my weight belt. Over-all it was a humbling day but the 2 other newbie CrossFitters competing with me was amazed at how strong I am. It comes to show that CF works!
Lee did a ring muscle-up at the end of the day just for me. I wish I can do that...

34:06 w/ 115#
Twenty minutes slower than my last effort with 100#, but this time I was very strict about form and lockouts with the PJs. I need to get over some psychological resistance to dropping more on the PJs.
18:20
Too bad not rx'd (not even close). Started with 125# which I was really struggling with and then settled on 115#. Once I dropped the weight the only movement that gave me any trouble was the HPCs.
I really don't understand why I've been feeling so weak lately. I'm not sore - CNS fatigue? I seemed to get stronger as the WOD progressed.

Although I have been at the gym for 3 nights this week, I feel as if all I have done is talk and talk to management about the ban on C & J and Cleans. They offered us another room (only for a year) but forgot to tell us that they would need it for 2 months later in the year. Back to the drawing board. Have to keep chasing them to get answers. Just as well I'm not shy. Going to call again today, fed up not being able to do what I enjoy. Want to get this sorted!

45:55 but as prescribed. I thought I might have to go down to 145 as 155 is near my limit for both the clean and the jerk. I was slow but at least I did the heavier weight and got used to handling 155. I need to get stronger and am determined to do so.

So, I found your post on crossfit and decided to give your site a try. (I usually use crossfit for ideas of what to do in the workout aspect). I’ve been doing the HIIT/abs in the morning and working out in the afternoon, and I have to say that I can already see results after the week or so I’ve been doing it. The primary reason I believe is the addition of daily HIIT and the diet change."
Check out this great workout program called the

Did this one at a local gym with a guy who's setting up a new CF here in town. It was very hot and I had sweat pouring down my arms, so I could hardly hold the bar. That made the DLs absolutely murderous - and on the hang cleans my form was horrible. PJs were relatively easy. Gotta try this one with some chalk! I don't think I can RX yet, but I'll get closer. Took about 30 minutes - not quite sure on the numbers.

First day trying out Cross fit. Used to be pretty freaky until I gained those last 40lbs. So now I am standing at a 5'7 278. Did a lot of power lifting so this one really played to my strengths thats why I jumped in with this. did 155 5 rounds in 17 min 35 sec. But toward the end my hang cleans were more like power cleans.
