This is gonna be awesome!
Was it just me or did that deadlift look cake?!
Craig YES! this picture is epic too
Nice job on the thruster WOD Caleb~ he hit 235 at NE Regionals.
comment #4, do the "Badger" workout first, and then see if you can build muscle with 95# squat clean
Just did this WOD on Tuesday! It's a good one.
CrossFit isn't about building muscle, Pittski. It's about developing increased work capacity. If you're just looking to get big, CrossFit probably isn't for you.
90 reps of 95# Squat Cleans won't build muscle? Tell you what, do this workout as rx'd and lemme know how you feel in the morning. If you aren't burnt to hell I'll kiss your ass...
Crossfit HQ. Please re-post the picture of the Hero that the WOD is named after. Though pictures of athletes are always inspiring, I would like to put a face with the workout dedicated to their sacrifice. It is because of people like Chief Carter that we can train when we want, where we want, how we want, wearing what we want. Gone but not forgotten Chief Carter.
I agree with you T. CF HQ please listen to T's request. BTW, this WOD, 42:07, was rough on the old grip, a small sacrifice compared to our fallen heros.
Check the FAQ Hero WOD list for the picture. It is an older Hero WOD likely being repeated for the workout, no reason not to have some current Regionals action.
T and baqdraft57, every time a Hero WOD is repeated the title of the workout links back to the original post that has a photo and description of the Hero that is being honored. For example, click on where it says "Badger" and it will take you back to the post from 2007.
Nice workout, it will kick my ass but can't wait to try it.
One thing, the deadlift vid should be named sumo-deadlift...
That was too easy, Jake! Put some weight on the bar next time!

53:04. Long time, but AS RXD! God I love saying that. Had to break the squat cleans into 5s but I remember the last time I did a similar wod, I was doing them in sets of twos. I work out at a globo so no bouncing the plates off the floor but I guess that makes me stronger. Back breaker though. Hopefully I got on here early enough to start a sat am trend to get some girls to post your times!
Great workout.
A bit tired from Nancy yesterday.
33:20 as rx´d. The PU slowed me down. Squat cleans broken into 10´s and 5´s.

runs probably need to be faster (good luck with this)

Legs are demolished, Squat Cleans killed me, the run wasn't easy, either.
Fair winds, and following seas, Soldier. Thank you for your Sacrifice.
Agreed, the pics are great but for a hero
WOD it would be fitting to see the pix of
our brothers who we are honoring.

Treadmill runs. I should have pushed a lot harder than I did the last round.
Had to sub 800 m row for the run, which really sucked because of all the additional pulling. Still a great WOD..

Hard work but not as bad as small?
30:18, as rx'd, broke up the cleans too much though.
That guy was 100% right! This wod isn't building muscle. "Badger" will build and test your heart! 3..2..1..
as rx'd, 15:00. oh crap wait that was warm-up!
44:24
I noticed that the guy in the picture is wearing a lifting belt. What were the rules for equipment in the regionals and crossfit open? Obviously, belts were allowed. Could people wear squat briefs or even a squat suit too? In some cases such equipment can make a big difference. I'm not criticizing, I would just like to know what the rules are.

41:30. I'm new to Crossfit. Is a "kipping pullup" the standard pullup used in the WOD's?

@ #43 yes kipping is the standard unless specified however lots of kipping can end up with shoulder issues if you're new to them so keep that in mind.
40:46, 65 lb squat cleans, pull ups with band and run...had to walk at times, still working on POSE running technique and "unused" muscles

SEAL chief killed in Iraq, Navy says
Staff writer
Posted : Friday Dec 14, 2007 12:03:13 EST
A Virginia-based SEAL who received two Bronze Stars with “V” devices was killed Tuesday in Iraq, according to a Navy release.
Chief Special Warfare Operator Mark Thomas Carter, 27, of Fallbrook, Calif., was killed in enemy action somewhere in Iraq. Carter was with Tactical Development and Evaluation Squadron 2, based in Virginia Beach, Va.
Carter joined the Navy in 1998, according to Navy records, and graduated from Basic Underwater Demolition/SEAL school the next year. He was assigned to SEAL Team 3, based at Naval Base Coronado, Calif., then SEAL Team 7.
In April 2004, Carter was assigned to Naval Special Warfare Development Group at Dam Neck, Va., according to information provided by Navy Personnel Command. That group, formerly known as SEAL Team 6, is an ultra-secretive unit that reports to Joint Special Operations Command, which includes Delta Force.
He received his current assignment in July 2006. Carter was selected for chief earlier this year.
“I am honored to serve with and lead men and women like Chief Mark Carter. He was an outstanding SEAL, teammate, and great American,” Carter’s commanding officer, who was not named, said in a statement. “On behalf of my command, I extend my condolences and heartfelt sympathy to his family and friends. His ultimate sacrifice, the most noble act for any American warrior, is our tragic loss, and I urge those who knew him to honor his life, in the best way we know how.”
In addition to his Bronze Star, Carter received a Joint Service Commendation Medal with “V” device, two Navy and Marine Corps Commendation Medals, two Combat Action Ribbons, and an Afghanistan Campaign Medal, among other decorations.
“Losing any of the warriors serving in Naval Special Warfare is a significant loss, but losing a chief petty officer makes that loss even tougher,” said Lt. David Luckett, Naval Special Warfare Group 2 spokesman. “Like so many of his brothers in the SEAL community, Chief Carter lived the SEAL Code, and his actions on and off the battlefield embodied everything noble about serving in the Navy and in Naval Special Warfare.”
Carter is survived by his father, mother, three brothers and four sisters.

I was dreading the squat cleans, but I think that we have been practicing them so much that they were much easier than expected!
As rx'd, 29:04.
Well that was brutal. This didn't seem so bad coming in - I mean, it's ONLY 3 rounds, right? Paced it out pretty well at the beginning - but squat cleans started to add up. Did them 15-15 / 10-10-10 / 10-5-5-5-5. Pull-ups were not as bad, did them 15-15 / 10-10-10 / 10-10-10. I took the runs at a pace (~4:00) that was comfortably slow in round 1, just plain slow in round 2...and in round 3, well I haven't felt that bad running since I did Murph with the vest last Memorial Day. On the bright side, I got in sub-30, which was my goal - and the hamstring actually felt pretty good during the runs.
