This WOD looks great.
Thanks Coach G!
63 front squats, including heavy sets and rep sets.
:-)
1max rep then ten or 1 set of ten ect.
Just what I asked to NOT get for tomorrows WOD. Thankfully it will probably not bash up my neck as bad as a clean :)
I love front squats!! Red carpet benefit event tomorrow night. Go figure, gotta love Crossfit. Murphys Law in full effect!
holy early post crossfitman!
Nice to see these early posts. Thanks.
Question: Are the sets of 20 and 30 meant to be completed in their entirety or can we break them up? for instance say we get to 25 and reach failure on the 30 do we rack and finish the remaining 5 or call it a failed set? I have never done sets of 20 or 30 and would assume to complete it the weight will be drastically lighter than the one rep max. Is there a percentage of a one rep max we should aim for on the 20 and 30 respectively (say 50 percent of 1rm for the 20)? thanks any help or input is appreciated.
That's what i get for doin F/S every day,for last wk !correcting form .
I'm guessing 10s, 20s and 30s should be unbroken. Otherwise it doesn't make much sense combining the loads for total...
I want to know what exercise that guy is doing in the picture?!
Kevin.. this guy looks as though he's doing a superman move.. maybe he jumped off the roof.. who knows!
I agree with Branko. I think these should be unbroken. Use the 10 load to determine your 20 load and your 20 load to determine your 30 load. I am guessing take a much time as needed between. Looks like fun.
kevin and diana i think the guy is doing the move from 300 where he jumps with his sword... didn't those guys crossfit? lol
Glad Im resting tonight - that's looks brutally awesome :)
Look at the box on each side of the tire... I'm guessing he is jumping from one to the other over the tire.
I'd pay to get some dance lessons from the little boy in the white t-shirt! He was awesome!
The whole video was awesome.
Good work everyone.
gonna get my ass kicked by this
wtf? i never saw that before! should be interesting.
That tire is FREAKING AWESOME!! I call 4 person teams for flips next time I'm in Chile!!
Anybody have any recommended weights for me? 6'3" 200 lbs 29/m I don't have a clue.
Spealler is definitely a class act.
India video is the best CF main site video in years.
best video yet. better than nasty girls, better than orlando doing one-arm fran, better than diane by annie and greg. way to go crossfit. stepping it up a notch.
Rad picture!!! Box to box over a tire?!?
Spealler- you're awesome! What an amazing opportunity!
Not sure what the point of this format is.
Any ideas?
Will read posts later...
What is Luis doing in that pic?
I still hurt from 121909- ugghhhh....
Spealer you are a class act. All CrossFitters should follow your lead

Think I get the pic...
He's practicing for the "10 x sinkhole jumps" WOD.
Missing a rep in the workout is a bad deal.
Can someone tell me what is the point of this workout?
the point of the workout is to trash your legs......
My guess is that high rep squatting is beneficial to work capacity across broad(er) time domains. Think about Rob Orlando's 100 bodyweight backsquats and his motivation for doing so, or the program design of CFSB.
Why it's all mixed up between high and low reps I have no idea.
What are the rest times between sets? This may be a stupid question.
Seems like it will be difficult to judge what weights are optimum for this WOD...more than usual that is.
BTW that jump looks really dangerous. I wouldn't want to try and land on a box after covering that much ground, I'd be afraid of it sliding or toppling. You'd have to land like a cat!
Man, you can't watch that vid of Speal and the kids and not smile. It is great to see CrossFit reaching out to the world. We can make the world a better and much fitter world one person at a time. Speal, you are a natural coach and an amazing athlete. Not to mention you give serious MOTO to us little guys.
Get some... love it... CrossFit 4 Life!
Why the complaints? Somehow this workout doesn't fit some preconceived notion of "metcon" or "max rep/heavy" day? Those are merely convenient templates and descriptions for distinctions that nature doesn't really care about.
Your body doesn't respect those kinds of distinctions, either. It simply does what's demanded of it and adapts appropriately. The same is true for the descriptions of the metabolic pathways - those are convenient descriptions, but nature doesn't care that we call it the Krebs' cycle. Coach has long made this point. These are all artificial constructs that help us a bit in our understanding, but are still incomplete.
You could just as easily ask "what's the point..." of any workout? Why Angie? What's the point? Why Diane? What is it doing? Do you really need that answer or would the results speak for themselves? When I first came here I remember thinking "why do they do this 'thruster' thingie, anyway?"
I'm looking forward to this one. I suspect you can gauge the weights with your warmup and/or use the Prilepin charts if so desired.
the dog chilling out at the end of the video was gold...dogs and crossfit seem to go hand in hand!!
tlav, if youve never done front squats before it's best to start conservatively. i'm 5'7"/175/19/m and back squat 315, and im considering using 225 for my set of ten. this WOD gives you the opportunity to go up, so start small and go from there.
#42
Thank you for your comments.
I looked a the Prilepin chart; are you going to perform the higher rep sets in one round or will you break them up?
Good luck Tommorrow.
That is the best Crossfit video. Its awesome to see some of our best out helping those around the world. Watching that video during the holiday season reminds me how lucky I am to have what I have around me.
Thanks
well since it says post the 6 loads I am guessing it
1-10 then 10-1, then 1-20, then 20-1, 1-30, 30-1 That would be six. If I am wrong I apologize
i am a new crossfitter and i am not sure how to do this work out
Ben i think you are reading it out wrong. when the rep count is 21-15-9 you dont read it 21-15, 15-9 right you read it as 21 reps, 15 reps, then 9 reps.. so for this workout it would look something like this
250 - 1 rep
180 - 10 reps
250 - 1 rep
140 - 20 reps
etc... i hope you get it
1 - 80 kg
10 - 40 kg
1 - 80 kg
20 - 40 kg
1 - 80 kg
30 - 40 kg (had to stand up straight or a while at the 17 mark)
Total - 360 kg = 794 lbs
Fantastic vid!
Couldn't help but smile.
Really hope this will be a series of vids :)
Would love to see more.
The video of Speal in India is fantastic.
Speal, so proud of you man. What an amazing experience for the kids in India. You are a class act.
Hugs to you and Sarah. miss you guys, and happy holidays. :-)

The optimal rest between sets is 2min 30sec to 3min 30sec. Or so I was told by Coach Glassman.
It has worked for me also, in that it allows the muscles to perfuse properly, but not to rest so much that the intensity is completely lost. It seems to be a decent interval as this workout is NOT for fastest time, but for best weight overall.
Kudos to the photographer! Not only does that photo capture Luis' beautiful box leap, but it also encompasses one heck of an amazing fitness center.
Speal is the greatest-a supreme athlete and a generous giving soul. Thank you for the beautifully produced and utterly joyous video.
New WOD. The last few weeks have seen quite a creative trend on the main page. Is that you behind that curtain Lauren?
Cool pic. If he is jumping over that tire from one box to the other that is an awesome display of committment, accuracy and power.
Hi. Long time away from crossfit so i forgot how much do we rest between each bar load. Could anyone tell me, please?
Great shots the past couple days. If any of those guys at al Faw want to get in touch, you all are welcome to join us down at CF Slayer. Shoot me an email masnyder2506@gmail.com. We'd love to have you guys come out.
This wod today looks like a great one to hit after our rest day tomorrow. Today we are hitting the Filthy 50.
Also, if anyone in interested in a CF Slayer shirt, email me and let me know, we have all of our stock here in Iraq, but I can mail them back out. Thanks for the support.

As for time between reps it is recommended anywhere from 2.5-5 minutes. Enough to recover a little but certainly not too much where you cool down. 3 minutes usually works the best for me but judge it by your body and find out which works for you. Hope this helps!

Gotta get a squat rack. Having to clean the weight limited me a little bit.
I think this is the first time we have seen a WOD with this format. Can someone from HQ give us the official explanation versus everyone's interpretation (which may or may not be correct).
Thanks,
go get some!

To me this is a pretty simple WOD. Some of you are trying to make things too difficult. In the real world you may be exposed to a task that requires this type of work, and not have the benefit of a warmup. Warmup then,1 RM, rest, then 10 RM, more rest, 1 RM, then 20 RM, 1 RM, then 30 RM. Add the weight on the bar lifted for each set. Try not to read too much into the thing, just do it and see what happens. If you have to use a chart to find out what your 10/20/30 rep sets should be do so, I try not to as I won't be able to refer to one in the real world. Just figure it out and go.
Should the total load not be ,e.g , 1- 95kg,10-75kg(750kg),1-95kg,20-60kg(1200kg),1-95kg,30-50kg(1500kg), total load =3735kg ? cos that's the total load lifted ? thats what i'm hoping to do,not done yet,probably crash now i've tried to pre-guess !

Advice Needed for M/25/5'10/180
A day of FS brings up a HUGE problem for me on which I’d like to get some advice / help. I have chronically sore hips and horrible ROM – it seems that no amount of static or dynamic stretching (recommended by many respected websites) has helped and, in fact, the only thing that did seem to help was the 6 months that I took off from lifting following ACL reconstruction. For example, despite my good back squat strength (315 3RM) I use a fairly wide stance with toes pointed out as this allows me to get my butt low enough without good hip flexibility. Also, I don’t have the hip flexibility to do OHS with very much weight. Note, I had bad ROM even before my knee injury.
Question: Does anyone have any insights into strategies or tactics that might help increase my hip flexibility and corresponding ROM?
Would be eternally grateful for any and all comments.

That video is AWESOME!!!!!
It is boxes like CrossFit Sri Ram Ashram and people like Chris Spealler that make the CF community so amazing. There is NO ONE in the fitness industry doing anything like CF is doing around the entire globe. I'm truly honored to be a member of the CF community.
CFHQ performs so many generous acts that the community never even learns about. I'm glad we could all share in this one.
As far as the WOD today goes.....I LOVE IT! I kind of reminds me of one of my favorites......

In my experiences box squats have really helped with hip and knee function in the squat. Start with the box at a height you can keep good form and gradually lower the box each week until you can get full ROM with good form. This may take weeks or months depending on the problem, but with consistency will usually help. This can be done with any kind of squat, just be sure to actually sit on the box. It is not just a depth indicator. Others may have methods that work well too, this is just what I have done with clients and has worked well for me.
Hello from Crossfit Sri Ram Ashram in India.
Coach Spealler is a class act, beside fabulous training he showed the kids the meaning of an elite athlete. He is a great sport, even dancing to Bollywood during his thank you party. Coach Spealler has always been one of our favorite athletes and a great inspiration for smaller folks. What a thrill for the children to have him visit.
Thank you to HQ for supporting his visit. Thank you to Coach Spealler for your time and energy.

Felt so strong today should have gone heavier, but keeping away from injuries for now. CF rocks and I'm totally addicted!!!!
Here is a post from back in 2003. I think this addresses a lot of the questions about broken or unbroken sets....
(I am new to Crossfit (3 months in...)and loving it, but have 18 years lifting experience.)
For those who are new like me, a wealth of knowledge can be found in old workout post. Start back in 2003 and look at the workouts posted and the advise given with them. I find this invaluable.
Friday 030919
"Diane"
21-15-9 reps of:
Deadlift 225
Handstand push-ups
This is 3 rounds; the first at 21 reps, the second at 15, and the third at 9 reps. Compare your time to August 5, 2003 when we did a "mini-Diane" at 15-12-9 reps. It's expected that you'll need to partition the sets, e.g., Deadlift 7-7-7 & Handstand push-up 3-3-3-3-3-3-3 as a first round. Interval management - work/rest timing to optimize time - is an essential skill.
If the load is too much under any partitioning scheme, reduce it. If you need help with the handstand push-up, take it in any manner you can get it. If the handstand push-up (HSPU) is clearly beyond your current capacity, substitute a standing dumbbell shoulder press (hip and leg free). Though a less functional press, the standing shoulder press is a closer simulation to the HSPU than the more functional push-press or jerk. The point is that there's a manageable substitution for this workout for everyone that preserves both its mechanical and metabolic characteristics - this will be "your Diane."
Since I had nothing better to do, I plugged 14 of the actual results above into a spreadsheet to see what percentage of 1RM people are using. Here are the average results:
1 - 100%
10 - 76%
1 - 100%
20 - 60%
1 - 101%
30 - 48%
I'll do this WOD later today using roughly these percentages. Hope this helps!
make that
"old workout posts" and
"advice"
guess I should proof read :-P

actually sitting on the box is pretty much the worst advice you can give. the amount of axial compression the spine undergoes is extremely dangerous and will eventually lead to injury.
Thanks MattP! That is a great place to start and adjust from as needed.

chris, it was awesome to hear you talk of your experiences in india last weekend. i gotta tell you man, seeing this video only solidifies how special the trip really was for you. it's seeing things like this that remind you of how incredible this community really is. again, from the heart, big thanks to EVERYONE involved with this trip....and as pat mentioned, the many like it that nobody knows about.
coach, thanks for all you do!
#98 25min2go,
I agree that your post is applicable to 21-15-9 WOD's for time. However, this WOD is NOT for time, it is a strength WOD. We are seeking three 1 Rep Max efforts, and one each of a 10, 20, and 30-rep max effort. As such, each of these efforts involve a weight that we think we can lift for 10, 20, or 30 consecutive reps without breaking the effort. As Rx'd would be to do each WITHOUT partitioning.
Our "score" for today is the total load, the total amount of weight we put on the bar for all six rounds. This asks us to do a little thinking before we start, doesn't it? How much can I lift doing a front squat for 30 reps without putting the bar down? Overestimate yourself and you either fail, and therefore don't complete this as Rx'd, or you fail and must do it again with a lower weight. Underestimate yourself and you have a score that is lower than that which represents your true capacity in this particular domain. This WOD also represents a nice little mental challenge--how good am I at all kinds of front squats, and how accurate am I at that determination?
Look at Memuc #107 for a very reasonable way to approach this. Nice job, Memuc, by the way!

disappointing.. got to 25 in last set & dropped the bar. picked it up and finished last 5. so, I suppose it doesn't count.. but I didn't want to redo.
I did a version of this (kinda) last week. Here's a word of wisdom:
No matter what you can front squat, holding the rack position for a heavy set of 20 (or worse, 30) is going to be the limiting factor. My legs barely felt anything, and I did 20 reps at 145 (my 1RM Front Squat is roughly 215).
I suggest doing the 10 reps at a pretty decent weight (I'd probably pick 155 for this), and get them done as fast as possible to save the muscles for the rack position. Go way lighter on the 20, and you may be able to go nearly the same weight for the 30 since it's the last one. Do the 1RM's however you can, go freaking heavy.

Hi guys...I need to get some type of knee brace for when I do squats and such. Mainly my left knee will pop ( nothing bad, it doesn't hurt, but it makes me extremely nervous and veers me away from doing them ). I'm thinking a brace of some sort will help me mentally; I'm not sure the difference between them though, should I get sleeves or those thin wrap around things I've seen? I really don't know the pros and cons of them.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Ok first four sets were ok. The 20 rep one was a bit tough, I'd get one and deep breath and get another after the first 7or 8 reps.
Third rep of 245 I went down and got a little dizzy. When I stood up I was asking myself if it was deep enough, I though about it a few times. Prayed real quick, walked arround the forklift and did it again to bottom. Like a squat clean.
Set of 30reps? OUCH. Ernie you were 100% right. Even at 125lbs by rep 7or8 I was done, I kept at it allthough in my head Monty was telling me to stop, but I got to 15reps I knew I could get to 20, then I knew I could do 10 more.

I've had problems with front squat form in the past and I REALLY enjoyed this one. I should have gone heavier on the 10 set and started too low on the 1 rep sets, BUT on the 10 set I corrected some form problems with my elbows and ended with a 10lb PR! I could have gone more I think, but I already had done an extra 1 rep set and didn't want to push my luck.
Total load was still really low but WAY better than any FS I've done before.

#118 bman,
While FS isn't totally about shoulders & wrists this workout should be used as opportunity to help you work on a weakness like shoulder flexibility.
I'm someone with shoulder flexibility issues and they can hamper FS as well as cleans, powercleans, thrusters and many of the other exercises we do in CF.
New to the site.... what does 1-10-1-20-1-30 mean? 1 rep, 10reps, 1 rep, 20 reps, 1 rep, 30 reps?
Andrea,
I did it like this.... 1 rep heavy wieght(295lbs)...rack it...then do 10 (205lbs).....rack it... then do 1 heavy rep..... rack it.... then do 20 reps...rack it....then do 1 rep heavy...rack it..then finish off with 30 reps to finish it off...
try not to rack the wieght when you are on the 10 20 and 30 rep sets
Hope that helps
Really enjoyed the workout, very unique.

Many reps of front squat correcting tendency to lean forward at bottom of squat, worked up singles by increments of 10 lbs from 135 to 215 after failing a couple times at 225. At the end of it all, failed again at 225, argh.
Cash out: foam roller. So tired.
Comment #83
Look into Self Myofacial Release techniques. If ROM is inhibited without any specific acute injuries or congenital (even with usually) this will help. Hips tend to lock up because of a tight Rectus Femoris, Psoas, etc. A tight muscle will stay tight until you do something for it. Trigger Point technologies sells good tools for SMR.

will probably do a 3rd WOD tonight (CFE)
I have been doing CF for over 10 months, Got level 1 cert, and just opened my Garage Gym (affiliated Two weeks ago. have been doing 2 or 3 WODS for three weeks already.
Does anyone think this is to much, what do you all recommend? I feel good, besides having all my miliatry injuries but they seem to be doing well.
Also, what do you all think about suplements? Protein, prework outs, and recovery supplemets.
Any opinions, suggestiongs are welcome..
thank you all and I FREAKING LOVE CROSSFIT BABY!!!

Sarra (Comment #163)
Ask ten people and you'll get ten different answers. Here's mine: My wife is an OT, and I asked her when I had the same problem. Knee wraps do not promote "weakness" if used temporarily and if combined with some proper stretching and strengthening exercises (e.g. thera-bands and leg-extensions). I used wraps for a while when I was having some knee discomfort and they worked great (b/c I don't need them anymore). Be sure to wrap your knee properly before the workout. Pay attention to your body: if you are in pain, see a doctor. If you are in discomfort, use wraps. If you use the wraps to get you through the workouts and work on stretching and strengthening, you will not need them after a couple months. If you're still in pain, see a doctor or PT/OT.

Wow, tough WOD. Didn't want to push this too hard, given front squats put the knee at a worse angle for the patellar tendon. Humbled on the set of 20 - I figured, I can do 50+ body weight back squats, 20 fronts should be no problem...my legs were fine, but I just could not hold the weight in front rack at the end. Back and wrists were dying. Same with the set of 30 - almost dropped the weight on 24 and 25.
Happy Festivus!

To sarra (163): I'm sure you could probably get lots of advice about any number of things here. My best advice? Talk to your doctor or find an exercise physiologist who can advise you.

First WOD in two weeks due to heavy Christmas party season. Had my head dunked in the Koolaid last year during Party Season and ended up burning out bad, run down bad, sick in bed for a few days. This year we partied hard and rested on "off" days. Rewarded with a nice little PR today and feeling great. The rest time helped some tendinitis I had in the left forearm/elbow.
A year older, and a year wiser.
How cool was today's WOD? Great to be back!

Don't have a squat rack so I had to power clean the weight first. PR for cleans is 165, but I wasn't able to match it tonight. I think I had too much on my mind...like... what weights should I use for the 10's, 20's and 30's.
So... 1-10-1-20-1-30 reps of front squat (each set preceded by power clean)

and misread the post and did one last heavy at 205. The weights seemed about right after being off crossfit for a couple of months.

Added a 400m run in between each rep set. Actually did much better than I thought for Front Squats. May have been able to go a little heavier on my max rep sets. Looking forward to tomorrows Deadlift WOD now.

M/42/225#/6'
Went to gym and kept thinking how this would help get some flex in my shoulders for the clean and after a tough warm up ended up doing cleans instead of front squats. 63 reps really helped my form on the cleans, still using light weight.
Better to be humble than injured. 1rm clean at 135# used 65# for multi rep sets. Could go much heavier but want to get the form.
I'm a dumbass! Last post (#317)was incorrect.

That is absolutely the purpose. Check your ego and make sure you go through the correct ROM. The weight will come and the longer you can go through the correct ROM the less likely you are to injure yourself going heavy. Mental strength is just as good as physical strength.
All those flexibility issues, believe me yoga helps. It is the foundation to good flexibility. Try incorporating it on off days. It works wonders.

I did try to throw a 205 in for the last heavy, but as soon as I started to squat I felt a bad pressure and decided against it. the set of 20 and the set of 30 were broken, but the stops were only to reset my grip. These lifts kill my fingers. I am not gripping the bar, but the fingers are on the bar and bent back so far that it starts to hurt. I found a really comfortable hand position on the last set....too late though.

All sets straight through, should have gone heavier, toooo easy.
Had an audience last night, couple of new blokes at the gym could not concentrate on their dumbbells for watching the eejits doing multiple f/s and arguing about what weights to do. I wanted to go lighter but ended up doing heavier.
Soooo cold here could not heat up.

I warmed up with a bunch of stretching and double unders and then a bunch of progressive sets to get me somewhat prepared for a single. Should have gone heavier in the begining.
I really felt like I went a little too light on the first 2 rounds. I've never tried anything like lifting heavy and high reps in the same workout. I'm very interested to see how this plays out. I'll try this in the other workouts when I can. I'll be traveling, so benching and what not and heave D.L. will have to wait until I return.
I thought that it was VERY MENTAL.. to go from psyching up for a heavy lift to getting ready for a longer grind.

Made good choices on weights for the 10, 20, and 30 rep maxes! They were just right, if not slightly too hard, as i had to pause a few more times than I would have liked. Definitely needed the spotter to help me get the weight back on the squat rack a few times (I'm short).

Not bad overall. Probably need to start a little higher on weight. Assumed a 240 max. Don't round back on heavy reps.
Suggested weights:
10 reps @70%
1 rep @95%
20 reps @60%
1 rep @ 90%
30 reps @ 50%

1RMs were definitely not as high as they could have been, since I'm just picking up after taking a week off training. Sets of 10/20/30 were hard though.

I have only done front squats once before and pretty much just practiced the movement...I just started CrossFit a month ago.

I couldn't get low enough when I used 145, but I was able to do 2 reps with 140. I'm not what the problem was. My back squat is about twice this amount, is that normal? I have also been doing back squats for at least 4 years though.
F/20/5'4"/140
This is my second time doing front squats, and for some reason I could do 140 for 2 reps but when I put it up to 145 I couldn't get low enough.

I can back squat twice this amount - is that normal, or is it just because I am more familiar with back squats?

Yes this is normal. Front squats are harder to balance. It will be less of a difference with time though.

maybe could go higher on 1rep max but 180 is very near my max power clean and can't drop weight in my basement.

Kind of rushed through this, I was getting dirty looks by the roid heads in the gym, so I wanted to hurry and get out of their way.

Areas for improvement next time - start with more weight in the earlier rounds, and possibly less in the later rounds to avoid breaking them up. Adjusting to the switch from the lighter weight back to the heavy in the 2nd round was the tipping point.
