Gonna be awesome in 2° temps!
What is a hip extension? Didn't see on the demos.
The demo is under "CrossFit Exercises." It's the first category on the Exercises & Demos page.
If I'm lucky I'll be doing this one in the snow.
Goody for me!
Sorry for all of the excitement right now but I finally mastered the muscle up. I made some homemade rings about a week ago but have not really had the time to practice my muscle up. This morning I practiced my muscle ups for about 45 minutes to an hour with no success. I thought that it was impossible until tonight when I tried for round two. It just clicked. I did yesterdays WOD RX'D in 22 minutes. I have been crossfitting for about a year now and have been able to do all of the workouts as RX'd except for the WOD with muscle ups which I then sub 4 pull ups and 4 dips. I am completely stoked. Keep the intensity up everyone and just remember NEVER GIVE UP! 3..2..1.. GO
It's like a mini Michael, this will be "fun"
Any ideas for substitutes on the GHDs and the Extensions? I am thinking situps (which obviously are not as tasking) and something else. Thanks in advance.
What is the GHD sit up and also the hip thrust i only have a government computer and cant open the demo thx
#10, how did you make homemade rings?
I usually wrap my legs around a flat bench up on blocks for the GHD and hip extensions.
Good job Kansas Corey i'll be putting up a post like that some day. Still cant get one here but I will some day...
Kansas Corey -
Thanks for posting, thats the situation I'm in right now. Hope to succeed real soon here.
Evenin'! Time for your daily newcomer stuff. The good news is that Lauren is posting stuff before my bedtime. The bad news is that we already have to talk about the GHD...
5 Rounds for Time. Do the triplet 5 times. For time means we do it FAST.
Run 400M. Good on ya if you have a 400M track available...that is, if your track isn't under some gawdawful amount of snow. A standard outdoor track is 440 yards long. Close enough. Indoors on a treadmill 400M is .248somethingsomethingsomething. Call it .25 miles. In order to approximate real running many folks use 1 or 2 degrees of elevation. Me? I elevate the BACK of the treadmill so I'm always running downhill.
25 GHD sit-ups (SU). GHD = Glute-Ham Developer. There are videos on this and its proper use in "Exercises and Demos". The sub is regular sit-ups. Any kind of sit-up. Anchored, unanchored, on an abmat...it doesn't matter. Really. You choose. But if you are a newcomer to Crossfit, or if you are an experienced Crossfitter who does not do GHD SU every single day DO NOT DO 125 GHD SIT-UPS. That's just silly, just begging for an injury, or worse for Rhabdo. Do a few GHD's, no more than 10/round if you wish. Lisa Lugo let me do exactly 15 the first time I did them, and I walked like a crab for 3 days.
25 Hip Extensions. These are what people are usually doing when they think they are doing back extensions. Again, videos in the "Exercises" section. Do them on a GHD if you have one, Roman Chair, or over a Swiss Ball. Maintain your lordotic curve. If you haven't done these for time either slow down or cut down the reps.
To review, GHD sit-ups are an advanced exercise. You're new. Either sub some form of regular sit-ups or do only a few. In 2 or three days let's not have any stories about belly swelling or grapfruit-sized you know whats.
3-2-1...Go.
Newbie post in the filter...
#14 Here is a web address to a video on youtube on how to make homemade rings. If this web address does not work just go to youtube.com and search for "homemade rings" it is like a 9 minute video. I think that there is also a video/instructions on the main crossfit page under the FAQ on how to make homemade rings. Tell me if you can't find it.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0V8C-fOP5c4
I love doing these, only my gym (not a Crossfit gym) doesn't have the equipment. I'm thinking about wrapping my legs around a heavy bag instead...?
P.S. I want to thank everyone here at crossfit, from Coach to the community. I've been doing this for about 18 months, but not consitantly. Im a Martial Arts Instructor Trainer in the Marine Corps and our emphasis is focused on Combat Conditioning. I do however, often take many crossfit workouts and either add to them or sub parts in order to work in some pieces of our program (specifically adding buddy carries/ exercises and sparring). Well thanks again Crossfit, looking forward to a good strong year.
Oh yeah, I forgot to post the other day,
Angie as rx'd 22:31.
#14 here is a web address on how to make homemade rings. It is on youtube and is approximately 9 minutes long. If the web address doesn't work just go to youtube.com and search for "homemade rings". I also think that the crossfit main page has instructions on how to make homemade rings under the FAQ tab. If you can't find it let me know.
Can we throw in some pullups and squats for fun??
#16 Thanks! I am really stoked right now.
#17 I was in the same boat as you just 9 hours ago and then it just clicked. Practice, Practice and Practice some more. I am positive you can get it.
subbing in burpees for 400m run, elbows to knees for GHD and dead lifts for Hip Extensions
Have a good one everyone
Is GHD sit-ups the same as Glute ham sit ups
Bingo we need your help!!!
I know its not the same but would subbing in sprins on the treadmill be effective
Bingo,
I am an experienced (but mediocre) crossfitter. Have been garage gyming for around 4 -5 years. Been to a Lvl 1 and read & watched everything, so the information you post is nothing new to me.
Having said that I love reading your newbie posts. They are informative and entertaining. You write the way I would like to speak.
I'm sure you have worked hard in your life to develop your writing skills, but they really are a gift and I'm pleased that you regularly share that gift through your musings and these newbie posts.
Keep up the good work.
Mike really man really. Im somewhat of a seasoned Crossfitter but would doing sets of push ups or burpees after a workout help me or hurt me?
is there any sub for the hip extensions?
thanks bingo. question: can i do hip extensions on the standard back extension standing machine? i don't have access to the lying-down version in the media clip.
Looking forward to tomorrow. So far I'm being patient with myself since I've only been at this over a week. Trying not to be a new years statistic. So far I love the workouts, but I can tell I'm out of shape. Thanks to Bingo for all the newbie tips and information I enjoy your posts. Thanks to every one keeping it positive. I can see why it's so addicting!

This workout looks awesome.... Good one guys
that was a lot more painful than expected... trying to run with stiff a$$ legs from the back extensions was brutal
as rx'd: 22:34
17:30 - no GHD, subbed butterfly situps and good mornings w 45# bar
A big tire works great for the GHD situps and extenions.
Beginner. Started strong, but could only do 3 rounds in 21 minutes. Cheated on the sit-ups. My back was hurting so bad by the 3rd round I could only walk the last 400 meters.
I've never been in so much pain or sucked at something so bad, yet still felt so optimistic about pushing on. Good stuff!
21:44

Why do you choose to run at a decline on a treadmill rather than at an incline?
I took am often stuck trudging through the workouts on a tread, and I've never even considered running at a decline (but now I may).
Thanks--
P.S. Congrats KANSAS COREY! Huge accomplishment :)

I love it but when do we start moving weight again.
29:00
used the multi Hip machine for the hip extensions and GHD sit ups with the smith machine holding my legs on a bench. Good work out, but time was bad due to waiting for machines to clear.
loved the thrusters in India video. Is ir childish that I laughed when Chris said "down" and one kid dropped the stick? lol I'll be trying out a new gym today. one good thing is the track is right next to weight room. no GHD machine though.
Holy Sh$t
Day behind.
428 pull-ups in last 4 days.
subbed regular sit ups and regular back extensions... and had a 1:45 second transition between rounds.

25 min
29:30
like most, had a bit of a walk through the gym to get to the GHD area...but still no excuse for a slow time.
The GHD situps/hip extensions were brutal on my legs at first, then got easier as the running got harder....interesting.
Definitely weaker on GHD's than in past.
m/26/180/5'7"

first time doing true floor to toe GHDs. brutal with a time that reflects it.

(Directed toward Doug...but not AT Doug..if that makes sense)
Idk when we'll start moving weight again. I think it was very strategic of Coach to put in so many pulls, pushes and squats for the first week though. I'm a noob and have been reading the main site every day for about a month. I wanted to jump in but the WODs included snatches, split snatches, DL, rowing....all stuff I've never done before. Because of that I was anxious about attempting something so new (1. I may hurt myself with improper form and 2. I didn't want to look stupid), now that I've gotten into the basic habit of comming on here and being motivated it'll be easier for me to do the WOD Rx'd when oly lifts come up.
hhmm...just a random tangent...anyhow, I say good planning for both the newbies as well as the seasoned; it's still been a grueling week but familiar enough that no one is afraid to do it.
Happy lifting :)
22/F/5'5/150
3 rds subbed GHD situps for normal crunches (had to share the GHD machine).
Round 1: 3:23 (crunches)
2: 3:28 (crunches)

Quick Paleo question here guys:
I've been looking at going on the paleo diet for a while now despite the fact it renders most of my favourite food inedible (pasta bake, pizza, spag bol..)!
However, I have a concern; although dairy isn't allowed on the paleo diet, how much of an effect will keeping it in my diet have overall? I mean, it does contain a lot of protein and good fat, and doesn't really contain a whole load of carbs, and contains a good number of minerals.
I just love milk and yoghurts!
Any reply much appreciated :)
Patrick McClurg,
Northern Ireland
subbed for ghd's and hip extenstions 12:00 I think my run had been a little short of 400m will check distance next time. But thanks jason for the idea next time ill use the big tire for the GHD's and hip extentions today just did good morning's w/44lb bar and layed with back flat on floor legs out and came up and switched hands for GHD's
#34 la chica - absolutely! If you don't have a GHD that's the next best thing. If you don't have anything else, feel free to grab a swiss ball, anchor your feet on something (a dumbbell rack?) and use that. The swiss ball is also good for the sit-ups because you can start it out below your thighs for a few (simulates GHD sit-ups) and then move it up to your butt or back to scale as you get more fatigued.
IPhone only gives abbreviations on Crossfit app. What is this workout,
It is only my second day of doing crossfit. Yesterday’s workout is wasn’t able to complete, but I am sore from it. Today’s wasn’t as challenging for me. Had to do regular sit-ups; and good mornings for hip extensions did it in 27:57.
Patrick,
I'm not sure about the Paleo diet since I'm not on it but as a rule of thumb (informed to me by my nutritionist) you should only have one MAYBE two servings of dairy a day. It's not as good for you as the public is led to believe. Your digestive track doesn't like it, it contains more fat (whole milk and such) and carbs than most know about. Most think dairy is awesome for you (I use to) so they down a gallon of milk every two days and eat yogurt like it's goin bad.
Idk...you said 'any reply' would be appreciated; I'm not sure about cutting ALL dairy out but it would actually help your diet if you only had a serving a day. Just my opinion and what I try to eat by (I love cheese on my food...bad Sarra, bbaaad Sarra)
Good luck!!

i have a Home made GHD machine, I used a SAW Horse, kind of like the ones to block the streets in festivals, what i did was some put some tape around, 2 pillows, and a mat. price to build this unknown.. price of the feeling of the GHD sit-ups, Priceless.. I put it next to the gators or next to a vehicle and use the rails to hold my feet, I am deploy so i have to improvise. i though i share my GHD improvisation incase you are a home. have a nice one everyone.

M/29/145lb/5'6"
Not much for facilities and equipment where I'm at, so I estimated the distance on the run (nice 50 meter gravel stretch at the begining and end with a couple abrupt turns) and subbed regular sit-ups and supermans.
19:02
question. my videos dont all upload. what are the crucial differences between GHD, and hip extension. btw i have done extended sit ups before so i am qualified. thanks for any help.
just saw my wife's facebook status. i think it sums up the crossfit noob at a globo gym experience pretty well.
"Hey boys in the gym looking at me try and fail and try and fail and TRY to do a pull-up! I may look silly now, but I will get it soon! And I will be more in shape than you, who do one set of 8 and then rest for 5 minutes!! You're supposed to sweat in the gym! So pfffftttt!!"
RX'ed 24:28
Time would be better if not done on the treadmill. No explosive accelerations for 400m sprints and way too many "New Year Resolution" runners at the gym today. I'm sure it will be back to normal in a few weeks though.

M/43/185/6'
17:2o as RX'd
Spent the last two days in the "mini van" (I hate mini vans) driving the folks to Florida. 1200 miles, sunny, 55 degrees but beach side. Now I can escape the wrath of the old folks and run & modify the WOD's on the sand. A few days here then I'll have to go back to freezing cold. I'll have to be creative on the WOD's but I'll get r done.
Laura f/47/5'7/150
No GHD machine. Subbed un-anchored sit-ups with bosu ball to try to get some more range of motion.
19:38
Five rounds for time of:
Run 400 meters
25 GHD Sit-ups
25 Hip Extensions
time 25:15 GHD's were a killer.
warmup 4MU's in a row
a couple of weighted at 5lbs. Leg warmup.
then 17 HSPU's 2:47.
Victim of "Globo-Gym"
Had treadmill for 1st round, then all were taken. Subbed 120 skips AFAP for rest of the rounds.
No real horizontal GHD, used their 45% model. Reached to medicine ball for GHD sit-ups.
22:30
Once finished, as I was stretching something caught my eye in a corner...a C2 rower! I felt like a fool! I could have done 500M for my run subs. Oh well. Next time I'll be ready.
Have pain in abs from strained glut so I'm just now getting into cf again. I subd a couple things and did
run 800m on treadmill 2deg incline
25 situps feet held
15 burpees
3 rounds for a time of 21:39
24 mins
regular situps, not GHD
M/31/150/66"
Did my runs on a treadmill, I think I could have been much faster on a track. Then had to trudge through the gym to get to GHD.
Total time as RX'd: 18:29
M 32 227
20:42
subbed L leg raises for GHS.
Pretty good workout! I did mine in a very slow 35 minutes.
27:53, as rx'd. Or as close to as rx'd as I can do without an actual GHD machine. A little nervous with 125 GHD sit-ups - lower abs feeling a little twingy in later rounds. Hopefully no problems tomorrow. ;-)
Knee feels much better (95%). Running hasn't felt this good in a long time. Well, at least the first 400 did - 75 seconds. Later 400's were tougher (90-120s) as my core got shredded - hard to maintain good form.
Jen did Puppies:
Three rounds for time of:
Run 400 meters
15 Sit-ups -- on Swiss ball
15 Hip Extensions
Time: 10:18. That girl can run.

Didn't work out from 18 December until today. The lack of workouts came back to haunt me. While I didn't put on extra weight over the holidays, my mental stamina dropped.
It took me about 18 minutes to complete three rounds of:
40 SDHP (subbed for 400m runs, too cold)
25 GHD
25 Hip Extension
400 m - in snow
50 regular sit ups
25 hip extensions
28:37
Subbed 500m rows in place of runs, otherwise as rx'd, 20:26.
Buy-in: moves from K-Star's shoulder prep video; light rowing, a few GHDs and then 3-2-1 ...
Cash out: 3 rounds of light wallballs and 1-arm db swings (recovery stuff); 10x3 clean and jerk at 135 lbs. Nice and slow, working on form. Sort of like Grace except without the intensity (jk).

Thanks for clearing that up :). Honestly thought it had something to do with some sort of special impact on the leg muscles that you were going for, or something on the form..... Ok, I'll stick to my incline (le sigh).

Subbed this WOD with ''300''. No kip on the pullups. No KB so picked a 40lbs DB for C&P.
26:00. Very humbled. Will do it once or twice each month with a sub 20:00 goal for the end of the year.
Better work today
5 rounds of:
400m
25 normal sit ups
12 GM ( never done these before)

with hindsight i could have done more GMs but it was the sit ups that let me down. Still, there is improvement.

[Parking lot estimation debacle + Equipment Sharing (Globo Gym)]
Otherwise, as Rx'ed.
Dude... I did yesterday's WOD without the rings, so i substituted 3 pullups and 3 dips for each muscle-up, 36 Pu's 36 dips 75 squats 3 rounds for time. I got to dip number 29 on the third round and hit the wall, I was too fatigued to go on, I had to lay down on a mat for 10 minutes, then finally finished. Not cool bro, not cool.
It took me a total of 48 minutes including the 10 minute break. I just started doing crossfit maybe two weeks ago and I must say it is the gnarliest form of training i have ever experienced. Every muscle in my body has been sore for 2 weeks. I want to do this workout tonight but I have never even done a GHD sit-up, or a hip extension because i always thought it was for chicks, but I just may try and do it. I am sort of sore from last night, but I feel almost as if my body is still cooling down from the workout, and I may have a case of where you get sore from a workout a couple days later after you do it (i forgot what it is called.. delayed muscle something or something).
My girlfriends cousin told me about cross-fit. He was a member of Blackwater for years, and told me that people that do cross-fit are the most fit people in the world. He is about 5'11 190 pounds of just pure ripped jacked muscle. He is my idle. I want to have his kids, just joking. But seriously, this guy has changed my life. I used to just lift weights and split up the muscle groups and do some cardio and i never actually saw great results or felt really that great, but this has changed everything, this is exactly what i have been looking for.

Either way, it was like 35 minutes. I may have done a 6th round as well...LOL. I usually put tally marks somewhere, but did not do that either and I may have done round 4 twice. It does not matter, I was SMOKED! The GHD SU's ruined me! Hope I can walk tomorrow and thursday! HAHAHAHA.

I did this workout this morning and got whipped! I did it in 44:54. I thought I could do it a lot faster but those GHD Sit-ups kicked my butt. I wanted to quit so many times but I thought about how many people can get through this, why not me? I finished and got a super head ache from it but it was worth it. Yeah!

20:26 as RX'd those GHD Sit ups are not Joke. i have a Home made GHD machine, read post 87. went past parallel in all the reps. a lot of people are confusing back Hip extensions with back extensions, they are not the same thing, read. hip extension pad goes on top your quads, Back extension pad goes on your Hip flexors. search in the journal under Gymnastics under Hip extension or back extension.

definitely could have been faster but the treadmill tops out at a 6 min mile and takes about 10-15 sec to get up to speed.
tried to cut time by leaving the treadmill running in between sets. watching me jump on a treadmill at top speed must have been pretty entertaining for the rest of the cardio geeks at the gym
