Just what I was hoping for

Comment #1 - Posted by: Pete In Sun City at August 29, 2009 4:03 PM

Perfect workout.
Awesome picture.
Love this website.

Comment #2 - Posted by: Chad 22/M/202 at August 29, 2009 4:15 PM

so i am not sure if i get the method behind the madness ...so for this for this type of workout we are only to do 1 rep 6 times then walk out of the gym

Comment #3 - Posted by: KRONICK at August 29, 2009 4:33 PM

News reports suggest these guys are using their Crossfitness on the fire lines today. Judging by the weather and terrain, they will need every bit of it. Good luck guys.

Comment #4 - Posted by: dougfir1 at August 29, 2009 4:37 PM

Mmmm could someone explain this for the noobs, what's the rep/set mean?

Comment #5 - Posted by: Streeter at August 29, 2009 4:38 PM

KRONICK, #3

Not exactly. You are doing the CFWU, some stretching, and some skill work after the WOD, right? If you are just doing the WOD, then yes, six sets of 1 rep and you are done.

I'm sure the NOOB post by PB later will shed a lot more light on the subject.

Comment #6 - Posted by: jwb_atm_93 at August 29, 2009 4:38 PM

#3, these are weighted pull ups = max effort, strength builder, which is a key component to all around fitness that crossfit focuses on. So, technically, yes you are only doing 7 sets of 1 pullup. But the goal is to going as heavy as possible and still get in a good rep. Feel free to do more if you'd like, but if I were you, I'd take days like this happily after Mon-Wed last week. If you want to do more, try crossfitendurance.com.

patrick....awesome site suggestion i am an ultra runner that site will definitley help in my training

Comment #9 - Posted by: KRONICK at August 29, 2009 4:48 PM

***** NOOB POST *****

Just in case PB isn't in today (just read the comment from yesterday, hope the family emergency turned out ok), I'll do a short noob post.

The WOD is to do 1 rep of weighted pullups 7 times. Do one rep. Rest a minute, or three. Repeat six more times. For newbies, start with what you think is a moderate weight, try it out, adjust up or down as necessary.

You have all kinds of options on where to put the weight: wear a weighted vest, put a dumbell between your ankles, or between your thighs, attach weghts to a dip or weight belt, put weights in a backpack and wear said backpack. When all else fails, have a kid stand on your feet and grab hold around your legs. Have fun!

A shout-out to the faithful unknowns who come together every day with the assistance of modern technology, except for at the gym...united we sweat...divided we die sooner...isolation equals destruction...

Comment #15 - Posted by: Matt Dawkins at August 29, 2009 5:47 PM

I'm just worried about what horror will befall us on Monday, after such a light WOD plus a rest day...

Comment #16 - Posted by: Eric at August 29, 2009 5:49 PM

Just got home from yesterdays WOD. There is nothing better than being the only chick in the gym, with sweat pouring out of me from 400m sprints and snatches, while being surrouded by dudes doing bicep curls and leg presses, while staring at the mirrors and holding conversations. And they think I am weird!

Comment #17 - Posted by: Kelly at August 29, 2009 5:51 PM

My condo gym doesn't have a pullup bar.....any suggestions as a replacement? I normally do lat pulldowns, but don't find them as good.

Comment #18 - Posted by: MM at August 29, 2009 5:53 PM

Fantastic interview; incredible athlete, outstanding person. What a great learning experience the Games are!

Comment #19 - Posted by: Steve S. at August 29, 2009 6:01 PM

Are these pullups deadhang or kipping?

Comment #20 - Posted by: Benj at August 29, 2009 6:09 PM

Wow, sweet place to workout! great pic.
today I used 75# for the snatches, ended up at 22:16. Not sure what the womens weight is for this..? I am sure some crazy strong gals did big dog style. love to see that video.

Comment #21 - Posted by: julie parisien 5'8"/163/37 at August 29, 2009 6:17 PM

KRONICK #3 - it's actually seven reps, not six, but that's beside the point. that very first rep should be a max-effort movement, and it should be intimidating before you start it. you should be flirting with failure for all seven reps, probably failing on at least 1 or 2 of them. so it shouldn't be, for example, 40-50-60-70-80-85-90, it should be (0x10-45x5)-80-85F-85-90-95-95F-95 (warmup in parentheses)

you'll end up doing a lot more than seven single movements, and i promise you'll be tired when you're done.

Comment #23 - Posted by: SethO at August 29, 2009 6:40 PM

HEATHER, girl, stop losing sleep over it. You are so great, and I totally enjoyed watching all the build up vids prior to the games. Seeing the change in your body and knowing how strong you are across the board is a huge reward in itself. And all of us out here know it too, so STOP the nightmares!

Comment #24 - Posted by: julie parisien 5'8"/163/37 at August 29, 2009 6:41 PM

For all who were asking Patrick about CFE -- let me tell you, it's absolutely as awesome as CF. It posts its workouts (usually) earlier than CF does -- which is pretty hard to beat. They operate on a 3 day on 1 day off cycle, too, but their cycle is a day or two off from CF, so sometimes you'll have to sacrifice a CF or CFE workout to maintain a perfect 3 on 1 off cycle. Anyway, I used it to get ready for Navy Scuba Diver school and now for some Tri's and it's great.

Good luck everyone!

crossfitendurance.com

#18, in my opinion, there is no substitute for pull ups -- i never got better at them until I specifically did pull ups. If you have a monkey bar set or a kids playfround near your condo, use something like that -- that's what I used for about a month leading up to Navy Scuba Diver School -- a bar off the ground is a bar off the groung. Hooyah man, good luck.

Kelly #17 - I was going to ask you to marry me, but I guess Tom beat me to it.

By the way I was hoping for something like weighted pull ups. I love 'em.

Comment #30 - Posted by: Corey Bibolet M/39/68"/156 at August 29, 2009 8:23 PM

Tom #28 Sure, why not. Could this be the 1st proposal & acceptance on CF comments?

Comment #31 - Posted by: Kelly at August 29, 2009 8:27 PM

I got to introduce my fiancée to crossfit today and I must say power snatches were a bad way to intro

but by the end she was in love

Great gal and as always wonderful training system, really gonna go heavy on this

everyone be safe and go hard

Comment #32 - Posted by: Fallen M/22/5'11"/155/6% at August 29, 2009 10:41 PM

Just coming back to CF after a long break, maybe four months-ish. So this is gonna be my first workout of course I have to wait till tomorrow, but stoked.

I've also done the CFE and it is awesome no matter how you slice it, awesome info.
Another cool site is swimplan.com if you want swim-specific workouts, it is totally focused and completely free, definitely recommend.

Good on ya! A few weeks ago in a Dubai hotel gym I was asked to " ... quiet down please ... you're distrbing the other guests!" Ha-ha! Next time I'm gonna work on getting kicked out. In the meantime I've started planning planning setting up my affiliate here in Germany just as soon as I have the Level 1 Cert behind me. Perhaps you should do the same over there ...?

Comment #35 - Posted by: GCF at August 30, 2009 12:09 AM

WOW -- the interview with Heather is phenomenal. It feels like the best interview and among the best content I've seen. I love how long it was.

Next year, Heather. Serenity to accept what you cannot change, and courage to change what you can. You need to let it go so you train smart; demons may not be the wisest drivers.

Sunday musings...

1) Kayaks do not have drain plugs.

2) Competition. Does it seem to you, as it does to me, that being openly competitive is frowned upon? That wanting to win, that being willing to do whatever it takes within the rules to win, has somehow become declasse? It's as if we have been overrun by an army of effete poets who are insulted by the very existence of physical competition, and who look down their perfect little aquiline noses at anyone who has the audacity to lower oneself to physical pursuits. And woe be to he or she who is so primitive and low that they actually try to WIN, who cares about winning.

Enter Crossfit. Every day is a battle, a contest of will, with a clock and a scoreboard and in many places a public record. Crossfitters compete with and among themselves and they give themselves over completely to that competition. We sweat and our sweat pours off our bodies. We breath so loudly that we can't hear ourselves think, with or without Buck Cherry blasting in earbuds "set to stun". Crossfit gives us free license to try to WIN, whether our contest is in Aromas or in a tiny corner of some gleaming spandex palace. Where else in your life do you have permission to do this, intelligentsia be damn#d?

To willingly seek and accept the misery in order to walk off the field of competition with head held high?

3) School's in. Wow...where did THAT summer go, eh? Mrs. Bingo, Lil' Bingo and I dropped Lovely Daughter back at college yesterday. Wasn't it just two weeks ago we loaded her up to come home? And two weeks before that when we delivered her to school as a freshman?

It's frightening how fast these years of parenting have gone. Lovely Daughter left for her freshman year this tiny, delicate creature, more chick or fawn than young adult in training. Yesterday we dropped off a poised young woman, ready for whatever this sophomore year might present. Smiling. Confident. Big! The Heir comes home for a visit in a couple of days. Man...if Lovely Daughter's aura has grown how will we ever find room for The Heir's?!

How fast. How blindingly fast these years have flown. The little tiny ball of blond fluff who stretched out her arms--"Ina huggie!"--just reaches across at eye level now--"I love you, Daddy!" Seriously, who cranked up the speed of my calendar? So fast...so very fast.

Parenting at the speed of life.

I'll see you next week...

Weighted pull-ups 1-1-1-1-1-1-1 reps

thease were head/chin over, underhand grip. I really made sure to get a solid height, not looking up and just getting my chin over. Head straight chin over.

1. 90lbs
2. 90lbs
3. 90lbs
4. 90lbs
5. 95lbs
6. 100lbs
7. 100lbs
last time weights were 30,40,55,65,75,85,90.
90 went up pretty well. I had to kick at the top inch or so to be sure of good height, but it wasn't to bad.
I was thinking 90 was going so good that on round 5 I would start going up in hopes of 105lbs. 95 was ok. 100lbs was really freaking hard. I wasn't sure on roud 7 of it goping up. I was at the top of the pullup for a bit trying to kick
up the last little bit. I kicked like 3/4 time till I was happy with the pull.

Like Scott I did weighted dips on the rings with the vest on (30lbs) for 15 reps (not in a row) Man that was a killer.

Well, I was reading a post today about how you should perform the 7 sets of 1 Rep exercises.
I have always gone with lighter on the first 3 Sets and then heavy on the next 4. However, I believe it would be better, since I do the CFWU, that I just push it heavy through all 7 Sets.
Being, that next time that I do the 7 Set workout that is what I will do.
However, this was today's results

1 - 10 LBS
2 - 20 LBS
3 - 25 LBS
4 - 35 LBS
5 - 45 LBS
6 - 55 LBS
7 - 60 LBS (on second try)
8 - 70 LBS (rested for five minutes after 60 LBS)

1 hour hatha yoga warmup

Neutral grip, strict: 25, 35, 40, 45, 50-barely, 45, 45, bonus 40 with some dead hangs wearing the 40, figure it would be good for spinal decompression.

10 minutes speedbag, some jump rope

#18: get one of those pullup bars that swings onto your door frame, so easy. You can get the cheap version for like $30, our local Walgreens has them.
These are MUCH better though: http://www.pullupbar.com/
I have one and the quality is excellent and it allows you to do wide grip. If you get one though, put something over the foam cusions that touch your door frame, if you don't after a while it will leave black marks on your door frame. I just slipped some old socks over them!

bad news - i may be out of commission on much of xfit for awhile - my left biceps/shoulder was sore during this wod, and in agony afterwards (even now, as i sit here typing this with one hand). but on the silver lining, i think i figured out that it's "pulling" exercises that hurt the arm and not pushing stuff or overhead work. possibly a biceps tendon strain?

Me and my husband Jonny would like to thank Coach Jeff Tucker, Michelle, Jordan, Paula and John for coming to our box across the pond in Northern Ireland and giving us such outstanding instruction and teachings in our gymastics cert this weekend.

It by far exceeded our expectations and we know that everyone who attended it had a total blast.

Thank you Tucker and the team for bringing us a little further into our CrossFit journey. We loved it.

Comment #143 - Posted by: Jon at August 30, 2009 1:05 PM

Mel #125 - could be your gripping muscles which support the bicep / elbow. I get that too, from pulling. It feels like an aching bicep but if you get in there with some ASTYM you'll find its actually the lateral muscles that wrap up your outer forearm & into your elbow.

If your elbow ends up aching any time you've left it in the same position for too long (slightly bent, like driving or typing is the worst) and needs constant stretching, the bicep itself is probably ok (especially if you can do a +75 pullup!).

Try an off-the-shelf Tennis Elbow brace, it should help some. Deep tissue work to break up the extra collagen & scar tissue will do the rest. A topical NSAID like Voltaren (Rx only) will provide some relief from the pain without having to go systemic on the drug. Good luck

I weighed in at 179.6# after my warm-up (last night was cheat night and I finally got a burrito..well, I managed to eat 2/3 of it).

The 60# rep barely got over the bar. I had to fight it and really give a good second effort. 65# didn't make it half way.

#150, I have that as well. Hate to say it but it's just something you have to develop because chin ups as opposed to pull ups use more biceps therefore making them easier. one thing to imrove on!

question: Because of my work schedule I do my rest days different. 1st week I rest on Thursday, 2nd week I rest on Tuesday and Sunday. So sometimes I go 4 days in a row. Rather than the strict 3on 1 off that they do on here.
What do you guys think, will this be alright or is it better if I stick to the 3/1 split so as not to overtain Thanks

I like these, but my gym has no belt to which to hook plates, and the dumbbells upstairs only go up to 50#s, and I think I could have gone higher. Next time I'll need to go downstairs.

It sucked failing on my last set, but I was on the whole very happy with my numbers. Last time I tried this -- around October 2008 (which was before I started doing Crossfit) -- I couldn't even do 75 lbs. once. I've clearly made a lot of progress since then...

really close on the 100s, chin was at bar, not above it. All weights were prs with some kicking and a small kip.

20#, 30#, 40#, 50#,55#, 60#, 65#, then since this was the first time with this workout kept going with 80#, 90#, and then just for fun tried 100# and barely got it with chin above bar. Put quite a hurt on the poor backpack with all that weight in it. It broke a couple of times, but we managed to patch it up to finish!

first Crossfit WOD...Normally just a runner with a little bit of light weight training or calisthenics.

31/m/5'11"/190#
Ran 6.25 miles this morning. few hours later did 10 Pull ups to warm up. then strapped a kettlebell to my waist (the heaviest I have is 20#). Did a pull up, waited 30s, and another...was going to keep going to failure, but did around 12 with 30s between each and was not tiring. Few hours later I went to gym and ran 4 miles on treadmill before mounting pullup bar again. used a 45# Dumbell on top of my foot and did my set. Last pullup was a failure....LOL...

I use rings for my pull ups maybe that's why.

Didn't have time to do a last set. I didn't have any type of amount of weight in mind when I began this, so was a good WOD to do for a benchmark for myself. I used my trusty backpack, which was a lot easier than attempting to hold the dumbbell between my legs, which is what I did last time I did a weighted pullup.
Looking forward to my rest day tomorrow. Much needed....

Cash Out: 1 muscle-up; I finally got a muscle-up the end of last week and am going to try and do one each day to make sure I don't LOSE it.

Comment #284 - Posted by: bsw at August 31, 2009 6:21 AM

I picked up a rope to try some double unders...and got 60! The only reason I didn't get more was because my pants were down around my knees.

I also did the weighted pullups.
20,25,30,35,40,45,50 -> overhand grip

Just finished with the cert yesterday, and as they asked I am posting my thoughts to the comments for all to see, and all I can really say is WOW, had a blast, the instructors were phenomenal in both personalities and knowledge, can't think of a criticism except I wish the certification was actually longer so that I could learn even more than what I did in such a short weekend. Everybody interested in crossfit has should really go to a level one cert, you will not regret it.

This was interesting. I don't think I could have kipped if i wanted to, because of the way the weights were situated...so dead hang it was.

Pull Ups, Weighted, 1 rep, 0/45/90/120(F)/120(PR)

Previous PR of 115 lbs on 081006.

Also did the following strength work:

Shoulder Press, 10 reps, 45/75/107(PR)/112(PR)
Overhead Squat, 10 reps, PVC/45/102(PR)/75
Front Squat, 10 reps, 75/135/192(PR)

Felt very strong tonight - PRs across the board. Beat my 10 rep shoulder press PR by 10 lbs. My overhead squats were ugly - really ugly. I really need to keep working on this lift. Front squats felt very good; would like to break 200 lbs next time.

Huge PR on this - 25 lbs. Used the pullup machine this time instead of the top of the multi-station (round instead of flat top - better grip). Used a backpack up to 55, when it started ripping, so 65, 75, & 80 put it on the top of my foot, crossed my feet, and pulled.

This time I used my dip belt and it was a lot easier to just concentrate on the pullups...
I forgot to say that on the last 3 sets I used a under over grip (a la the deadlift) and that helped a lot in getting that last bit over the bar with the last heavy sets.

not able to kip due to belt with chain hanging the weight where balls would get crushed, so dead hang... Normally I am a huge kipper, so that was frustrating.

Remember that it is nothing to do your duty, that is demanded of you and is no more meritorious than to wash your hands when they are dirty; the only thing that counts is the love of duty; when love and duty are one, then grace is in you and you will enjoy a happiness which passes all understanding.

Did two complete Rds of this.

50 / 60 / 70 / 80 / 90 / 90 / 90

2nd Rd was with "chin-ups", palms facing in. After 95lbs (heaviest db in the gym) used a weight belt with w/ chain and hung plates:
90 / 95 / 95 / 100 / 105 / 105 / 110

Bodyweight 160. Walked out with 30 lbs, thought that should do it for my single rep maximums, as I hadn't done weighted pullups before.
To my pleasant surprise:
3 reps (pull up grip)
5 reps (chin up grip, alternating grips for the reps below)
3 reps
4 reps
3 reps
3 reps
2 reps

Thank you. Loved the workout, will take more weight next time.

So 75lbs is my new PR.

I did these at my gym with a hip belt. (Previous PR: 60, but with dumbell between feet). Since the pullup bar was one of the split kind, I used an elastic band as a marker for where the top of the bar would have been.

Couldn't get full range of motion on *. Could get about eye level (chin level if I raised it), but couldn't get those last few inches to bring my chest to the bar. The grip was a little bit wide, I bet I could get it on a different pull up bar. I can't wait for this to come around again, I love weighted pull ups.
