Holy mother of God...I'm guessing there's no time component, just like Lynne?

these pull ups dead hang or what?

Comment #7 - Posted by: lane at September 22, 2009 7:45 PM

Oh, another question, this one without a definite answer: should we go all the way to failure on every round, or pace it out to try and maximize total reps throughout the workout?

Comment #8 - Posted by: Jake B at September 22, 2009 7:45 PM

um, is this supposed to be done lynne-style, resting as needed? it doesn't say that, but it also doesn't say post time to comments.

I'm goin hard tomorrow, cant do the squats though took a nasty hit in football and cant walk correctly, but i think i may push through vomiting on this one

Kelly you rock!
Keep the great info coming.

Comment #12 - Posted by: marco at September 22, 2009 7:52 PM

This IS Lynne style in it's rest periods. Max reps, each set, rest as needed.

Comment #13 - Posted by: Herm at September 22, 2009 7:52 PM

I cant wait. I need to work on my squats and this will help a lot.

Comment #14 - Posted by: christian bull at September 22, 2009 7:53 PM

Last time this was up, it doesn't look like there was ever a definite Coach answer to the time or rest component question. Some people tackled it with no rest between movements, but 3-5 min between rounds while others said there's no time component and rested as needed between each exercise and each round.

Will either approach diminish the training effect?
Which do you have time for?

Comment #15 - Posted by: buretto/35yom/6'2"/193# at September 22, 2009 7:55 PM

Someone must have struck a chord. Anyone that complains about a length of strength work after this cycle is off their rocker.

I think that this is my favorite WOD yet (2 weeks in).

Comment #18 - Posted by: Clinton 25/m/220#/71'' at September 22, 2009 7:58 PM

question do we do all 5 rounds of 1 exercise and then move to the next exercise? or 1 round is all all three?

Comment #19 - Posted by: Kevin at September 22, 2009 8:00 PM

This looks like a great workout. Tomorrow at about 9:00AM going to hit this one HARD! Then I think a nice, relaxing swim after that.

Rock it out everybody!

Comment #20 - Posted by: Alex/6'4"/188/24 at September 22, 2009 8:04 PM

I'm going to max rep Benching, then max rep pullups, then max rep squats. The time between walking between equipment, and doing more max reps ought to be [not] enough recovery time.

Comment #21 - Posted by: Clinton 25/m/220#/71'' at September 22, 2009 8:06 PM

So... I'm a wuss...
I can't do any of these all the way (or I can only do one rep). Should I just do what I feel I can do a decent number of reps for each exercise, or do I go for my max? For example, my squat max is 275, but my bodyweight is 260. If I go body weight on those, I am going to be done in maybe 2 or 3 reps. Also, my bench max is only 175. (I know... pathetic for a 260# guy, but hey, you gotta start somewhere!) Do I knock it down to 150 for the bench and 200 for the squat and go for an extended workout, or should I do my max on each and have a really quick workout? Along the same lines, should I throw some bench or extra pushups into my workouts on a more regular basis to improve my biggest weakness? Thanks for the help.

Comment #22 - Posted by: Ryan at September 22, 2009 8:06 PM

#19

bench press, pull ups, then squats= 1 round,....rest a few minutes then HIT IT AGAIN!

Can i get a woo woo!

Comment #23 - Posted by: Kelvin Minefee at September 22, 2009 8:06 PM

This one is going to hurt.
As far as the resting goes I would say just like lifting heavy go 3-5 between round and some rest between exercises.
I have a quick question about how to post a video. I watched the firefighter vs fran video from crossfit norcal and read the swat vs fran article in the journal and got inspired. So a couple days ago i got in full kit and pro mask over here in iraq and did what a fellow crossFit buddy called Ranger vs Fran. So any ideas on how i can share this with the community. I am asking on the insistence of Joe cause he swears its just as cool as the other video and i wasn't able to suck O2 like the firefighter. Anyways, let me know

Comment #24 - Posted by: Chris 24/m/174#/65" at September 22, 2009 8:06 PM

Ryan (#22), its all good man we all need to start somewhere. Keep in mind the average CrossFitter is 180 with nothing for bodyfat and has been doing this for a while! Scale the workout so you will be getting the most out of it, if you are not taking rest in between rounds I would make it so your first set you do at least 10-12 reps. If you are taking rest then you can up the weight a bit more. Take care, train hard!

Comment #25 - Posted by: DB [24/M/5'8"/205lbs] at September 22, 2009 8:11 PM

Ryan, I'd max. Do a rep, take 30 seconds, do another rep, take 30 seconds...but I'd make sure I did more than 5 singles per workout. That'll qualify it as high intensity for sure, and you'll definitely feel it tomorrow if you do it like that. This way it would also count towards endurance, which is what you sound like you're thinking about with the lower weight and more reps.

Comment #26 - Posted by: Clinton 25/m/220#/71'' at September 22, 2009 8:12 PM

Woot woot!!

Comment #27 - Posted by: Adam/M/25/6'2/175 at September 22, 2009 8:13 PM

Coach,

My biggest complaint is that there isn't enough strength training in the main site WOD's. I think this cycle proves headquarters aversion to heavy wod's and illustrates the programs heavy handed bias towards MetCon type worksouts. Could you please do something to remedy this situation?


:)

Comment #28 - Posted by: thenine at September 22, 2009 8:14 PM

YOWZA!!!

This is going to be wicked!

Comment #29 - Posted by: Nick T (29m/73/190#) at September 22, 2009 8:18 PM

Not looking forward to this after doing Saturday's WOD today.

Comment #30 - Posted by: Chris 6'4/205/23 at September 22, 2009 8:31 PM

Tomorrow is my 58th birthday so I am going to do the Filthy Fifty Eight as Rx'd except for the damn double unders (will do 290 singles instead). Aim to finish in less than 58 minutes. We'll see.

Comment #31 - Posted by: Brian Mallard at September 22, 2009 8:32 PM

I was wondering why we don't incorporate any sprints into the WODs. It seems like if the goal of crossfit is to specialize basically everything, we'd have more actual sprints in the workouts, and not just 400 meter runs in the middle of a metcon workout. I know there are some schools of thought that say sprinting will increase total strength and VO2 capacity as well. Anyone have the answer?

Comment #32 - Posted by: Cyroth M/20/5'11/180 at September 22, 2009 8:33 PM

This is sweeeeet! Bring it on!

Comment #33 - Posted by: Craig at September 22, 2009 8:35 PM

Wow, this is a big week of max workouts! It does not help that I caught a slap shot in the hammy on Sunday! The knot is killing me, granted if I was facing the other way I might still be on the ice face first.

Oh, two days behind, PR 10 lbs shoulder press, 20 push press and 20 push jerk!!!! This was while I watched trainer let his client get about 4 inches of range of motion on a pull up on the gravitron. Both the client and trainer looked at me strangely while I watched this waste of money, health, and time go on! I mean... really why.......why let someone do something wrong over and over and over... I'm so glad CF is in my life now. I can't wait for DL tomorrow, I had not worked out my legs in 4 years, really( yes it was said before crossfit) start in Jan DL 260, tomorrow shooting for 350, PR last time at 330. Crossfit = RESULTS

Comment #34 - Posted by: DeppeInDallasq at September 22, 2009 8:42 PM

#32

The 400m is a sprint. Run as fast as you can for the 400m. Depending on your level you will be sprinting for just over a minute. Good luck!

Do all WOD's as fast, (maintaining form) as you can. Intensity is the game

Comment #35 - Posted by: jefe at September 22, 2009 8:46 PM

#32 Cyroth,

We just did 100m sprints x10 on 070227...

I guess it's been awhile - it seems like yesterday. :)

Comment #38 - Posted by: terry at September 22, 2009 9:03 PM

This WOD is brutal. Nicely done, Coach. I haven't seen this one before. It's like "Lynne Cranked on 5 hr. Energy".

I'm going to rest 1 min between exercises and 5 min between rounds. Then after it's over I will perish. Two days later I'll still be sore. Outstanding.

Comment #39 - Posted by: Cbus A at September 22, 2009 9:27 PM

NICE!

"Lynne" with some Back Squats thrown in for good measure!

Comment #40 - Posted by: Mike in L.A. at September 22, 2009 9:29 PM

hey all, so a general question for everyone here, but when they do the bench, are they going down until the bar touches your chest, or are you going down until you have a 90 degree bend in your arms, regardless if this means the bar is touching your chest?

Comment #41 - Posted by: adam (m/23/5'9"/164) at September 22, 2009 9:30 PM

hey all, just a general question, but when you do the bench press, are you guys going until the bar touches your chest, or are you going until you have a 90 degree bend in your arms, regardless if the bar is on your chest?

Wow this one was a long one but fun....my max weight was under my body weight, so I scaled it down and kept increasing weight until a) I hit the 5 rounds b) I hit body weight...this was exhausting but I set three new PR's

Bench (old PR 135)
135 - 10 reps
155 - 7 reps
165 - 7 reps
180 - 5 reps
185 - 3 reps

Strict pull ups or kipping?????????????????????????????????????????

Comment #44 - Posted by: worm29 m/5'11"/36/200 at September 22, 2009 9:59 PM

#43, I'm under the impression it's always kipping unless otherwise stated. (I may be under the wrong impression)

Comment #46 - Posted by: Claire at September 22, 2009 10:28 PM

#32 if you want to add some sprints into your routine then do it.

Comment #47 - Posted by: Dave m/22/6'3"/230 at September 22, 2009 11:01 PM

Looking forward to this workout. Bench press/pushups are a big weakness of mine.

For those that do CFE as well, if I don't have time to do 2 a days (workouts separated by at least 3 hrs) is it acceptable to do the CFE only 30-60min afterwards? Some days my hours are pretty jacked up, but I don't want to miss out on it

Comment #48 - Posted by: Nick S at September 22, 2009 11:06 PM

#43
Unless it is otherwise stated, than Kipping is the default Pull-Up that you should do. Which is why whenever we do strict pull-ups it always says it. Hope that helps.

Did strict pullups. Just happened to be what I always did, so keeping the baseline and comparing to that.

Comment #51 - Posted by: Kevin Bania, 5'10, 180lbs, Camp Al Taqaddum, Iraq at September 22, 2009 11:40 PM

I did 5 sets of max rep body weight squats about three weeks ago. Managed to get 100 total, which was really hard and I was sore for days after!
So I guess I have to hit at least the 100 squats again (20 per rep)this time!
I will be happy if I get 50 total bench presses, 150 pull ups and 100 squats, but I will not know until Saturday (I am 3 days behind the main site).

Comment #52 - Posted by: ian (m, 1.85m, 32y, 82k) at September 22, 2009 11:54 PM

What should I sub for BP? I don't have a bench.

Comment #58 - Posted by: NilsGermany at September 23, 2009 3:02 AM

This sounds awesome. I can't bench my body weight, so I'm going to scale it down to a weight that I can handle for about 10 reps. I can't do a full pull up yet either, so I'm going to use the assisted machine. I CAN squat my weight, so I guess I'll do that until failure. Does all that sound about right?

Comment #59 - Posted by: Tab f/27/64"/140 at September 23, 2009 3:10 AM

Potential bench press sub: weighted push ups. Put your hands on a scale while in push up position and note the weight. Put weight on your back over your shoulders to make the weight on your hands the same as your body weight.

Thank you #44 #48 for clearing that up for me. The desire of doing strict pull ups is there, although most of the time impossible with the numbers.

Comment #64 - Posted by: worm29 m/5'11"/36/200 at September 23, 2009 3:46 AM

3 rounds of max reps
Pushups – 45/23/23 = 91
Pullups – 30/25/22 = 77
OHS (95#) – 6/13/10 = 29

Those OHSs were quite difficult after all the pushups and pullups. Killer workout on the arms!

So, totally unrelated to todays WOD....I have been crossfitting semi-religiously for over a year and a half. To this day, thrusters and cleans just totally kick my butt and leave me crying and struggling to finish (sometimes I can't). I'm behind on the WODs so I just did one with cleans yesterday and just could not complete it. Odd I think, especially since I'm not new to crossfit. Anyone else experience this, or am I in need of therapy?

JUDD

How are bench press numbers so low in comparison to your Pullups...?!?!? I'm guessing you're doing kipping? Are you assisted? Are you using bands? Are you using a weighted machine? I don't get it...

Please explain. Ty.

i see this often but you're the most recent comment...

anyone else have similar stats want to comment?!

Comment #98 - Posted by: question at September 23, 2009 7:34 AM

still no weight...

5 rounds for time-
30 push ups
30 pull ups
30 squats

TIME- 13:47

Comment #99 - Posted by: MarcusG 5'9" 165 at September 23, 2009 7:35 AM

Wow! That wore me out.

I was 4 seconds away from maxing my PT test (Air Force) this morning.
1.5m run: 11:28
PU (1 min): 47
SU (1 min): 52
Waist: 26.5"

Then I did a scaled version of the WOD:
BP: (65lb) 10, 11, (70lb) 10, (75lb) 7, (80lb) 5
PU 90lb assist: 6, 8, 7, 6, 6
BS: 115lb x 15, 15, 135lb x 10, 10, 10

I watched all the kipping videos this morning. Would you believe that you can partially kip on an assisted machine? It helped me a little, even though my pull-ups still suck. I just need to practice more.

***frat**

I did Lynne on July 24 and got a total score of 36. If this were Lynne (counting bench and pull up only) I would have gotten a score of 68. I nearly doubled my output in 2 months without even touching the bench press. That my friends is why I love crossfit!!!!!

What a WOD!

Comment #111 - Posted by: Ryan 24/175/5'10 at September 23, 2009 8:20 AM

Question #103

When your doing the kip the power is coming from your hips, when doing bench you only have your upper body strength. Meaning you should get more pull ups then bench.

Some reasons why your kips are low might be from a muscle imbalance, or maybe your technique.

For me anyways my limiting factor in pull ups is grip strength, not lats, chest, or even hips.

Just my two cents. Hope this helps.

BP/PU(w/ kip)
(1) 16/15
(2) 14/11
(3) 12/9
(4) 10/9
(5) 8/8

i'd like to say i have a pretty good kip too, i just can't seem to do any more PUs once i reach a certain point.

i really need help with increasing my pull-up #s but i have no idea what kind of program or routine i can do...

Comment #114 - Posted by: question at September 23, 2009 8:29 AM

I'm new to cross fit and was wondering if I should do one set on Bench press and move on to pull ups and then squats and repeat that 5 times or do 5 sets on BP and then move on to 5 sets on PUs and then 5 on squats or doesn't it matter?

NOT AS PRESCRIBED

**had to sub push ups for bench press..right shoulder bone spurs having NO bench press action at all. Time to get that taken care of...and the cortisone shots aren't cuttin' it anymore.

**Scaled up to 135# for back squats**

All push ups were chest/nose to deck

no rest between exercises

too long of a rest between rounds b/c we had 11 athletes cycling through this WOD~everyone did GREAT helping to load/reload bars quickly and efficiently.

Bench (170lbs): 19, 12, 10, 7, 10
PU: 40, 20, 17, 12, 21

It's a good first week back in the swing, though. I'm looking forward to regaining my fitness.

**Frat**

The last time I did Lynne was in July using the same 185# bp. My score on that day was 36 total reps. If you take the Lynne component of this workout my score would have been 68 total reps. My work output increased nearly 100% in 2 months without me even touching the bench press between WODs.

This my friends is why I love me some crossfit.

Now I either have to lose 55 lbs off my 6'6 frame (yeah right)or move my bench up so I can do this as RX'd next time :)

@Comment #95

I would suggest that you dont. Most CFitters would say that the Smith is only good for pull-ups! (well that is the only use i can find)

On a serious note. Saftey first, always, but if that means backing off one rep earlier IMO that is better than the Smith.

Just my thoughts.

I do the crossfit warmup and remove pullups if they are in high demand during the WOD, as recommended.

Sure, I can drop count to 3, get a few more, drop again, get a few less or jumping pull-ups etc.... but i can't continuously do 15 kips after the first set, and it's really bothering me.

Even during the warmup, pullups still suck and I've been doing crossfit since March-ish, and I have been working out consistently for the past few years before I started CF...

This was encouraging for me. Going in today, I felt completely spent. Spent a long time warming up (am starting to gain some flexibility on my ohs). Though I felt terrible by the start of this workout, by the end, I felt like I could kick ass (did have to battle the urge to hurl at one point).

Did anyone else find this to be a remarkably challenging cardio workout? My heartrate is beating faster than a rapid salsa track.

Just coming off a 2.5 week break for elk hunting, so only did 3 rounds.

Took squats easy to avoid aggravating pulled muscle.

Today was my 8th CF WOD completed. Not sure If I'm getting it completely yet. Did all 5 sets of BP, then all PUs, then all BS... Am I supposed to do in circuit fashion instead?

Stats: M/6'3"/230lbs

BW Bench Press:
230(3), 210(3), 195(5,4), 185(5)
Didn't like my form at body weight so dropped to 90%, 85% and 80% until I was happy with form. Form over weight, right?

Pull-ups:
10, 10, 8, 7, 5
Still don't know kipping pull-ups. My gym isn't exactly CF ready!

BW Back Squat:
230(10, 10, 8, 8, 10)

I don't feel as strong since I've started CF over conventional weight training... Does it typically take adjustment time? I was doing 2-3 hours per day 4 or 5 days per week. Now it feels like I'm in the gym less than an hour, 5 days..

Enjoying the variety though!

#32 400mtr sprints are more than enough to decrease your 1 mile times, in lots of other workouts you also have 800 mtr 1/2 mile sprints, and even the occasional 3.1 mile and 6.2 mile runs. As with survival, when is the last time anyone had to run over a mile (unless in combat) to escape a predator? Most likely never.
I have never meet Coach, but I know there is a method to the workout, and more running will come soon, sure of it!
Also I have worked with many persons that did not have the drive, motivation, will, stamani (sp) to run distances (3 miles or greater). Working with them doing METCONs, and sprint work, these guys and gals alike were able to crush times (5 minutes and better) they previously thought were incapable. Also for the advanced athlete, they were able to decrease times by 1-3 minutes. METCONs and sprints work, unless you want a marathon pace, then you have to train for the marathon.

Warmup:

-50 reps of each exercise in the triplet with minimal weight
-1 round at 155# (5-20-5)

Main:

Round 1: 175#, 5-20-5
Round 2: 185#, 5-20-5
Round 3: 190#, 5-20-5
Round 4: 195#, 3-20-5
Round 5: 205#, 4-16-5

None of these wgts are PRs in and of themselves; however, in this workout or Lynne this is the best I've done.

Comment #163 - Posted by: John at September 23, 2009 10:43 AM

Been really off with energy. Going to bed early, not even feeling like yoga or walking in evening. Just tired. Sleeping well, but feeling like I need more and more. Did not feel like working out- not physically or mentally, but at the same time, driving me crazy I could not/ and did not feel like hitting it hard. Did NOT feel the DL “in my veins” today but tried them anyhow. Was off PR, form was ugly, and it was frustrating me more. Arggg…don’t know if I will scream or cry first!

Another perspective on sprints: 400m and up will help tremendously in building stamina. One purpose for short sprints (<400m) is to help with running form. In order to go fast, your body needs to know what it's like to go fast. You use different running forms (or techniques) depending on how far you know you're going. Some say that the best running form is developed from medium to medium hard strides over 100-200m. If you add 4-6 repeats after a workout, especially a distance run of 5-10k, you'll notice some improvement over time.

Comment #167 - Posted by: Freq at September 23, 2009 10:51 AM

bw 175
bench and squats @ 85k (187#) miss calculation at the gym with metric to lbs

So bench is not up often cause its not a functional movement.

I don't have a BW bench in my repertoire. Used to but have lost it due to not benching.

I also won't get a BW bench from the usual WODs as they don't include that type of pushing movement.

So the question is: Do you practice a non functional movement just to be able to do Lynne and WODs like today or just accept this weakness as there is no logical reason to practice a non functional movement?

Also, the CrossFit Football site seems have a lot of bench. They are pushing on horizontal plane. Something which would seem to be very functional. So if this movement is not functional it still helps build power in a functional upright movement.

Short question: I've got a herd of goats. Should I do anything but kill this one last?

I met Mr. Pukie after the fourth round (10 min. break). After that I felt great in the fifth round and was able to do more. I guess I'll try to lift with an empty stomach next time.

Also, I didn't technically do max reps on the squats because I didn't have any kind of spotter to catch me if I failed.

(Drop BP to 135)
Round 3 - 12/6/15
Round 4 - 8/3/13

Clearly my upper body needs more work. Day 2 of what will hopefully be a 30 day trial for me.

Not quite as rx'd on bench, otherwise as rx'd. I vote we call this workout "The Destroyer" or "The Widowmaker" or some similarly ominous and thrilling title.

Round 1: BP 6(bw, PR+1); pullup 26(strict PR+7 for strict form pullups); back squat 35(bw PR+5); total 72
Round 2: BP 4(bw); pullup 30(kipping); back squat 17(bw); total 51
Round 3: BP 6(185); pullup 28(kipping); back squat 15(bw); total 49
Round 4: BP 5(185); pullup 17(kipping); back squat 12(bw); total 34
Round 5: BP 5(185); pullup 22(kipping); back squat 12(bw); total 39

Total reps 245. Did strict pullups in Round 1 because a buddy of mine and I like to compare totals for one round of this, and he insists on strict pullups.

This goes right to the top of my list of hardest crossfit WODs. Right up there with Linda and Murph with a vest. Went shark eyes partway through Round 3, was in survival mode the rest of the way.

BP is obviously a weak point. Not quite a goat, but some other lowly member of the animal kingdom.

Comment #215 - Posted by: #42MARQ - CrossFit Bucks at September 23, 2009 1:13 PM

First round went with similar weights for both bench and squat so chose 90/100. To light for the squat so for round 2 went up to 125, still too light. Rounds 3-5 at bodyweight, 135.

Bench: 6,4,3,3,3
Pullup: 12,13,12,11,7(lost my timing and coordination)
Squat: 15,10,7,7,8(never went to muscle failure, just oxygen debt)

A gasser, squats after kipping pullups tough.

Comment #216 - Posted by: SueAnne/f/49/5'6"/134 at September 23, 2009 1:16 PM

Everytime there are pullups, 20 people ask if they are kipping or not. Correct me if I'm wrong here, but we ALWAYS (unless otherwise noted) do kipping pullups. Thats my understanding.

Due to my packed little crappy gym, I had to do squats first, then I did the bench and pullups together.

BW = 175 lbs.

bench - 5,5,4,4,4 = 22
dead hang pu - 10,8,7,8,8 = 41
squat - 25,30,25,30,50 = 160

my breathing was a huge problem for the 1st 4 rounds of squats. i would simply run out of breath long before my muscles fatigued. got it somewhat under control for the final round. will definitely be shooting for 50-60 reps per round next time.

Believe it or not, I'm more happy with my bench performance than squat!

As rx'd. Body weight today 171 (pre-WOD). Used 170 for bench/squats.

Went pretty much straight from bench to pullups to squat. Rested ~ 2-3 minutes between rounds. Results:

Bench: 18 / 11 / 6 / 4 / 4
Pullups: 30 (PR!) / 21 / 13 / 12 / 11
Squat: 50 / 28 / 20 / 16 / 15

This workout sucked! This was one of the harder WODs I've done recently. At first I was like, this is just like "Lynne", but with some squats. SOME indeed. The squats totally wore me out! I'm hoping this doesn't come up again...at least not for a long time.

Thoughts. 18 for me on bench was good for the 1st round, but my bench became pathetic in later rounds. Barely got the 30th pullup - had to really strain for it. Squats were definitely the worst. I went to failure on bench and pretty much so on pullups, but on squats, I just went until I couldn't stand the pain anymore. I never actually had a failed rep, but I used "feeling like ass" and starting to get lightheaded as my surrogates...the bad news was the feelings of complete exhaustion and lightheadedness did not go away quickly. And I also felt like a slug for at least an hour after this WOD. (Maybe next time eat something beforehand.)

On the plus side, I had no idea I could do 50 bw squats. Not looking forward to tomorrow.

Can anyone explain what going to failure on squat feels like? I can do it fine for bench & pull-ups. But I do like 20 or 25 reps of squat with bodyweight, then I just feel kinda tired, bored, & lightheaded and stop. But that # of reps feels way lower than true anaerobic failure for me on squat. (My body weight equals 170, weight for squat = 175)

No spotter, so I'm sure I could have gotten a few more reps out on the bench/squats (especially the squat on the first 2 sets) - though especially for the bench, probably not more than 1 per set more.

Either way - 13 BW bench is a PR for me. Thanks coach - I would usually say I'll rest when I'm dead - but since I just started working in CFE work in addition to the WOD - I'm ready for rest tomorrow.

Question: why are there no specific bent over row type exercises in the WODs? Have I missed them? It's a pretty functional movement, useful in many aspects of life. If anyone has an answer, or can point me to a discussion thread, I'd be mighty grateful.

Comment #258 - Posted by: FB at September 23, 2009 3:40 PM

WTF! About six months ago I maxed out on reps for my body weight. I weigh 225lb. I reped out 71 reps. Afterwards I couldn't drive home from the gym for 1 1/2 hours. My legs and lower back were jacked. I think I'll keep it around max 40 reps. Bench and pull-ups are fine on the other hand.

I died after that fourth round. I think the 22 squats, in the third round, did me in. Doing one more round wasn't going to do me any good, so did the "smart" thing and watched Doug finish.

Seriously, there are a lot of you out there that need to start going to the BrandX website to understand the WODs. In fact, here's the link! http://www.crossfitbrandx.com/index.php/forums/viewforum/16/
Oh, and for those of you didn't read up on the WOD, THERE IS NO REST BETWEEN ANY OF THE EXERCISES. It might enlighten some of you "Big Dogs" about the reps you posted. Technique over time. Proper form, proper programming, boys and girls.

M/33/5'7"/204 (Down from 215 two weeks ago)

Bench Press 135#/15- 205#/3-205#/3-205#/3-205#/3
Squat 135#/15- 205#/5-205#/5-205#/5-205#/5
Pull up 4-4-4-4-4

Squatting 205 was rough and benching as well. I've never really pushed that kind of weight on either exercise. Not to mention how horrible I am at pullups. But hopefully over time I can get those numbers up. Also, it seems I did this out of order. Hopefully it doesn't matter.

Turns out I did more than just tweak my left lumbar injury yesterday. Woke-up this morning w/significant pain. Just laying on the bench today was very difficult.

Travel Day - Trained at a Globo Gym

Warmed up with some selective stretching, inclined sit ups, and double unders. Also went through the Burgener warmup a couple times and did some snatch drills with a broomstick. My legs are still pretty tender after doing Tabata Squats and Fran on Saturday at the Level 1 Certification in Charlotte. So I did today's wod but did not kill myself on the back squats. That said, here's how things went:

Bench Press, 175 lbs, 15/10/8/7/6
Pull Ups, Dead Hang, Chest to Bar, 17/13/11/11/11
Back Squats, 175 lbs, 15/13/12/12/12
Total 173

Each and every rep was done with complete - no messing around - range of motion (an important and painful lesson I learned at the Level 1 Certification). The globo gym I trained at did not have a pull up bar I could kip on. So I did dead hangs instead. Back squats were down to a D-Ball with good lumbar curve. Could have squeezed out a few more reps on each round but wanted to avoid hurting myself.

Got 215 reps on 080910 but my form was not nearly as solid as it was tonight.

Wasn't able to write down individual rounds.
As Rx'd (I weigh 150#):

Total: 180 reps

Brutal. Bench went well, my failures on PU were usually due to sweaty hands rather than fatigue, but squats were killer. The last set was probably my only true failure; it was really a mental thing and then they just zapped my energy for the next round. Minimal rest between sets within each round, but had to take about a 3 min breather in between rounds after those squats.

Daniel #264,
If you read the Rx'd Wod, it says "post reps for all three exercises in all rounds" so I'm not sure why you posted a time. Perhaps you should relook the guidance. This WOD was practically Lynn with squats added. "Rest as needed"...because the point is to reach serious muscle failure multiple times. Since everyone is aiming to get better--not out-measure the other athletes--perhaps do each exercise on a three minute interval. That keeps your rest times consistant for your own battle-tracking.

Thank goodness this one only seems to come up once a year…I don’t think I can handle more than that! I can’t do bodyweight (160#) bench press, so this is one of the non-rx’d workouts for me…frustrating! The bench and pull-ups are hard, but there’s something about bodyweight squats for max reps that makes me want to cry. In fact, I did cry.

Bench 125 (+15 pounds from last year)
Squat 160 (rx; +9 pounds from last year)

1) 10/24/15
2) 7/20/15
3) 7/15/15
4) 6/12/12
5) 6/12/15

Total = 191

Bench up 16 reps
Pull-ups up 11 reps
Squat up 17 reps
Total reps up 44

I really don’t understand why the squats are so challenging. It’s so mental when you feel like you’re dying and 5 reps hurts…10 reps is uncomfortable…15 reps is torture…I know it is physically possible for me to do more reps, but my mind is screaming and it seems impossible. Just another day in CrossFit ;)

Did 3 rounds due to time constraints. Rounds 4 and 5 would have been brutal given that we were in a bit of a rush anyway.

215 lbs

BP: 2-1-3 (@205 for 3rd round)
Pulls: 30-25-22
Squats: 20-21-11

Didn't rest much at all between rounds or exercises, but made for a brutal WOD regardless. Hit the 30 PUs only one week after setting it as a goal! I was hoping to get to the 30 mark at 205 lbs, but I'll settle for it at 215 ;)
Squats were strong. During round 2, at about rep 7 I felt like I wouldn't make it past 15 or so, but the relentless little demon said GO, and I made it to 21. Felt AWESOME. Felt like I was going to pass out during the 3rd round of squats though, so I racked the bar.

Today also served as an experiment in strength training to failure less than one hour after ingesting breakfast.
Result: MUCH more difficult. Drinking that large coffee definitely did not aid in any for of heart control, which is not a bad simulator of performance under added stresses.

Regardless, I feel I'm going to strap on the old weight vest and do a few rounds of max rep push ups tonight as an end of cycle "desert".

Go Navy!

Swam this morning and had rugby this afternoon so I pussed out and only did 3 rounds.

bw 175, full pullups instead of kips.

r1: 9, 8, 19

r2: 10, 11, 26

r3: 8, 7, 23

Failing on the squats feels weird. I felt fine and my muscles felt fine but all of the sudden the bar just doesn't go up. Then you stand up and feel like you're gonna throw it. Great wod, need to work on my kips.

Really hit this hard and quick, as I had karate class coming up quick. Really felt that.
Also focused on form on the squats, took my time on those and sacrificed reps.

Scaled to 75% bodyweight (130 lb)

BP: 12, 11, 10, 9, 8
Pull-ups: 7, 6, 5, 5, 5
BS: 8, 6, 7, 7, 7

Dropped the BS weight to 115 in round 3, then 95 in round 4 and 5 to avoid passing out. Total body quiver after round 4. Pull-ups followed by BS is lovely cruelty.

This was 45 minutes of heart-pounding, callous aching, head-swimming, barf-resisting fun.

7 consecutive kipping pullups is a PR.

Body Weight Bench - massive increase in endurance vs 7/24 (which was only my 3rd CrossFit WOD at the time). Reps on 7/24: 12-9-6, switch to 135: 9-6. For all doubters out there, I've been CrossFittin' since July 21st, I am much stronger, more flexible, and endurance has shot through the roof. Can't wait to see where else this takes me - especially when it's done so much in just 2 months. I'm in for the long haul!!!!! Thanks!!!!

Five rounds for max reps of:

Bench Press, 1/2 Body wt 21/ 21/ 19/ 21/ 15
Pullups - assisted 10/ 8/ 6/ 7/ 4
Back Squat, 1/2 Body wt. 20/ 20/ 18/ 17/ 12

BP & BS - used 90 lbs.
Pullups - assisted - I attached resistance band, double-strength, to my pull up bar which assisted my pull up. I found this was better than feet on chair since I was really able to fatigue my arms. Chair-assist usually just makes my legs do more work as my arms get tired. You can't do that with the band-assist. I liked it and think it will help me develop my pull ups. I got a 2nd wind after my 3rd set, but paid for it on my 5th.

Okay, before I post my stats I have to say you all are freaking animals. How in the HELL can you guys do multiple sets of high teen and twenty pullups? Hopefully this is what I have to look forward to. Anyhow. Back to the stats....

Since this is day 3 I know I can't bench my body weight, Squat maybe but since the powerlifters had the squat racks the whole time I was at the gym I had to sub with leg press.

Saw this WOD this morning and was really excited. I've done a variation of is WOD on the crossfit football site. However, I've been doing more of a stength phase right now so I decided to increase the weights for the lifts. I increased the bench weight to 225 LBs and the squat weight to 315 LBs, but kepted pull ups BW.

Wasn't really feeling my best today, was only able to make it through 3 rds before I almost introduced myself to pukey the clown. In addition I did the lifts in the wrong order. I forgot the prescribed order of the lifts and performed the squats 1st, bench 2nd, and pull ups last. I'm definitely going to have to do this WOD again when I'm feeling up for it.

Prior to WOD
Overhead Squat 3x6
(175)
(185)
(205) Lost balance and only got 3

Power Clean
1x5 (175)
1x6 (205)

Pull up (BW) 30, 25, 22

No spotter, and BS weren't really pushing it. Pullups are getting so much better - I couldn't do a single 1 before I started crossfitting. I can't remember the last time I did bench before this.

Comment #375 - Posted by: mr blue at September 24, 2009 12:47 AM

Has anyone ever put together a list of WODs you can do without having to put post-it notes all over the gym? There's literally no way I'd be able to secure a squat rack, bench and pullup bar for the 25 minutes this'd take, which is one of the things that's stopped me doing Crossfit in the past.

Things like Cindy and Murph or even Fran are possible at my local gym, but other WODs are just implausible. If nobody's done this I'll do it myself.

34yom / 205lbs

Five rounds for max reps of:
.75 Body weight bench press (155)
Pull-ups (205)
.75 Body weight back squat (160)

BP - 17/15/14/11/9 = 66
PU - 8/8/7/6/5 = 34
S - 8/7/7/6/5 = 33

Got a burner in my shoulder on the second set of BP, so couldn't squeeze out the last few reps in following sets...still a good result. Squats were harder than I expected, but I maintained good form. Great workout!

Is there an opinion about using a manta or other pads etc for back squat...I dont' want to reduce the work but it tears up the shoulders...

Thanks

We used a band to do assisted pullups and did about 60% body weight for squats and bench press.

Thinking next time we'll do it closer to body weight and settle for lower reps. My muscles are still completely destroyed though.

Pull ups (had to lat pull down) 10 x 40kg, 9 x 45kg, 10 x 45kg, 9 x 45kg, 6 x 45kg.

Back Squat 10 x 60kg, 10 x 60kg, 8 x 60kg, 6 x 60kg, 10 x 60kg.

Could not do body weight for Bench press, having trouble at the gym, waiting to find out if we are allowed to do Pull ups or Jumping pull ups on Smith Machine,(they have already said I have broken Smith machine using band on it) had to use lat pull down instead. Should have done body weight for Back squat, talked myself out of it. No one argued with me to put it up.

Had already finished wod from previous night. Was chasing my tail last night. Felt sick during wod but I should have pushed for more. Push, push, push.

Good Fun

Why are some of my numbers going up? Is it that I'm not properly warmed up, or am not pushing hard enough on the first few sets, or is it something else? I don't see a whole lot of other posters whose numbers went up at all.

I am in the military and I try to save money by eating at the chow hall. What do most of the military guys do that follow the zone or paleo diet? I have been doing crossfit for about 2 years and I love it. I am so glad the marine corps is starting to adopt its traits. I just want to try and follow the diet now as well as the WOD.

Three rounds for max reps of:
Body weight bench press
Pull-ups
Body weight back squat

BW = 162 lbs.

Bench Press (165 lbs) = 10 + 5 + 5 = 20
Pull-ups (underhand grip) = 15 + 8 + 8 = 31
High Bar Back Squat (165 lbs) = 18 + 13 + 11 = 43

Second and third rounds were done without full recovery due to time constraints.

m/180/5'7"/29

Bodyweight = 180

So I did the math wrong on the weight, so ended up doing 190 with the squat and bench

Bench - 2, 3 (pr), 2, 1+1(spotted), 1 = 10
Pullups - 13, 10, 6, 7, 5 = 41
Squat - 21, 16, 14, 10, 10 = 71

All in all I felt like I did good on this. Walked out of the gym like Johnny depp on pirates of the carribean, haha. Arrh, and a bottle of rum!! Oh and don't drive home after crossfit, called a designated driver.

m/30/6'/170

max reps
70lb db presses
ring pull ups
170lb(rd1,rd2) 160lb(rds3-5)

rd1- 13, 18, 18 = 49

rd4- 9, 11, 15 = 35
rd5- 7, 9, 20 = 36
total- 47, 63, 86 = 196

for me this was as tough mentally as physically. absolutely brutal wod. took a short 15min break after rd 3 due to wife (was getting the stink eye)and child. db press due to no spot, went 82%(140lbs) up from my last lynne at 70% (120lbs) with same total reps. ring pull ups were with pseudo kip due to height issues. started out rx'd bs but because no rack had to clean then press everything first and after the db presses and pullups it got very tough as 170lbs is close to my max clean. (after round 1 took me at least a couple try's to get the dang weight up and over my head even at 160lbs) probably could have pushed a bit more on the squats as evidenced by my highest number being posted in last round, but i could have just been stoked about finally being done!

Sqt 185 to med ball = 12-12-12-12-12= 60.

Rt knee a litle sore so did not really push on squats but an ok effort there.

Using previous wrk out with BP and PU, net a new PR of 230. Previous marks with BP and PU were: 205-180-172-148 so liking the trendline. Truly thought it would have flattened out but happy it keeps going up.

I pretty much just stay in shape for my AF PT test (100's past 3 tests). I haven't done bench or squats since high school. Now I remember why. Somehow this work-out screwed up my shoulder to the point where I can't bring it parallel to the ground without pain. Thought it could just be sore, and I recover fairly well. Now a couple days later leg ache is gone, rotator pain maintains... Any suggestions? Or is it time for a physical therapist...

Today was just plain old suckage cause I was still funkay. Just call me dizzy...

Highlights: getting new pull-up PR
disadvantages: getting dizzy

round 1:
6,23,11
round 2:
6,20,12
round 3:
6,23 (Got real dizzy and took me forever to recuperate) 5
round 4:
135 lb bench 12, 5 strict pull-ups, 135 lb squat 8 (by then I was feeling cold)
round 5:
135 lb bench 11, 6 strict pull-ups, 135 lb squat 10

I felt sick after the work-out. I'm trying to get myself back to normal again...

Did bench press with dumbells to avoid the need for a spotter - turned out to be much harder than with a barbell. Started with 90lbs in each arm to start then dropped to 80lbs in each for round 2-5. Pull ups were all strict pull ups (just to mix it up a bit) except for round 4.

In a rush this morning (to get to work and to keep other's at the gym from hopping on one of the stations - crowded this morning), so didn't rest as much as I should have between each movement. Because of this, I thought pukie might pay a visit on 3rd round back squats, but it was just a false alarm. Either way, this one beat the hell out of me. Thank you.

Comment #546 - Posted by: clark at September 28, 2009 9:26 AM

just returned from a 7-8 days off at the LSU rapelling course. Ate like crap/southern fried food/no time for workouts and drank way too much. also just getting back to the 5000' altitude. first wokrout since getting back and this was tough.

weight was 185 on squats/165 on bench

1. 15 (stopped at 15), 25, 15 = 55

As recommended. Did the pull ups at strict dead hangs, no kipping. Squats were by far the worst.

Lunges with 125# using barbell-- 71
