205 fs. ( should have gone heavier)
Sloppy pulls half way through
Grow up, #1 cris p., what an unhappy person you must be.
Yea no kidding #1. Just do the workout and cheer up
I was busy admiring Mindi's effort to notice the technical flaws of the photo. Haters gonna hate. Great work Mindi!!
Just do the wod I'll knock this out before the Niners game !!!!
What weight are u supposed yo use
I'd like to know what you recommend for rx'd weight as well...
In the video they where using 65percent of their 1 rep max.
That seemed to light for me. I would have used 75 percent if I was going to go it again
65% in my opinion would be a bit too light, even if you are taking it from the ground. 75% would be better, or maybe even a bit more if taking it from the rack.
Hell yeah to my SIL, Mindi. So proud of her. Took us over a year to convince her to give CrossFit a try and now she has turned into one of our best coaches.
#1 less about the pics, more about the WODs!
M/29/140#
6:09 @ 70kg/155# (70% 1RM)
I agree with #10 & #11, 75%+ would be better for next time.
I've been doing crossfit for two years. I finally feel compelled to post my first comment. STOP worrying about prescribed weight! Every individual has his/her own prescription! This personal prescription will improve if you follow the crossfit model and theory. As far as what weight should be used for this wod, that depends on what your 1 rep max is. Again your own prescription.... If crossfit headquarters has failed at anything, its the lack of information given regarding prescribed weight and how to safely apply this to individuals within the crossfit theory. Best article I have ever read regarding this is Jon Gilsons (Again Faster) article: Zatsiorski, Scaling, and Power. June 18 2010. Good Luck! Thanks for everything Crossfit! You truly have enhanced my life!
Picka weight.
Will you make it heavy and turn it into a strength limited with the pull-ups as recovery, or go lighter and have your metabolic conditioning the limiting factor as you speed through it?
It's your call, there is no "right" way for this.
Note what you did so that you are comparing like with like in future efforts and then try it the other way the next time this comes up.
The beauty of this and most CF workouts is that unless it's purely testing strength or endurance, you can use it to work different aspects of your physical, or in fact mental, conditioning.
What needs work right now?
Pick a weight that will develop that.

Just started Crossfit from basically a dead stop about a month ago...not even sure what my max squat is yet, just went with something that felt right for the number of reps. Biggest accomplishment was not using a band for the pullups.
That's my coach! Way to go Mindi!!

Atta boy Metric. Musings on the way...
Crap! Ripped my hands again. Did not expect it today. Not that many pullups considering... and they're broken up... hate it when that happens... Long live crossfit!!!
Sunday musings...
1) Sprezzatura. The art of unstudied elegance.
2) Form. Then consistency. Then, and only then, intensity.
3) Forest. "A tree falls how it leans; be careful how you lean." --The Lorax.
A tree in the forest may or may not make a sound when it falls. A man, on the other hand, is never silent on the way down.
4) Hunger. "Hunger can change everything you thought you knew about yourself."
It's Thanksgiving weekend, a good time to think about this. Ever been hungry? Not "man, when is dinner?' hungry, but the kind of hunger that comes from not knowing when, or if, dinner is EVER coming? I haven't, but I can readily understand what the quote is saying. Peel away the veneer of civilization, chip through the cushion of the societal safety net, turn a deaf ear to the bleatings of the entitled as they moan about "hunger" on an iPhone, and think about what real hunger exposes.
There was a time in America, not too very long ago, when the country was plunged into a Recession. Terrible, unthinkable weather patterns caused crippling drought; people sought to blame mankind for it all. Government was tapped out, reeling from the costs of war and the economic devastation of unemployment and stagnation in private business. People of all ages, from all walks of life knew true hunger for the first time. Real hunger. Clothes falling off your skeleton hunger.
I have not known hunger, not like the hunger suffered by the denizens of the Dust Bowl years. In our Western world we see this hunger so rarely that it is front page news when we do. No, our hunger is less elemental, more venal than mortal. Embarrassingly skewed to the 'want' side of the want/need continuum. How, then, would we behave in the face of true hunger? What would we learn about ourselves?
Who among us would save Tom Joad?
I'll see you next week...
Musings in the filter @0550...
Body fats dropping nicely with these intense crossfit workouts!! Calorie intakes not too harsh as the intense workouts make up for it..
First week on crossfit and lovin it! A slow 9.40- took ages on the pull-ups. Followed it up with 81 burpees in 7 min.
Where is the guy from in the background because I also used to be a FWPD Explorer and have that same shirt.
Hell yeah for my SIL, Mindi. We harassed her for over a year to give CrossFit a try and now she's one of our best and most beloved coaches. So proud of her.

Didn't rack on any squat set but a few breaths between some reps. Had no idea what my front squat max was going into this so afterwards I gave it a shot. Made 241 and failed 261. Guessing my max to be about 260 fresh. So squats were around 85% max. Loved this one today as I havn't done any squats in a while due to hip flexor issues. Pull ups were a killer.
70 kilo/75% bodyweight 6.10 for time. Will smash it next time below 5.30. Pull ups were harder than I thought but will get faster
M/36/97kg

Front Squat @ 80kg, could probably have used 85kg but 80 is 75% of max.
Chins a little broken due to grip and forearms frying. Just took a few seconds and cracked on. Butterfly kip felt quite good and hands didn't rip!!!!
Finished with some snatch practice as level 1 cert in London come December.
190/m/37....6:37 Fire breather is what this WOD made me!! Fun
Just to get it out there, kipping on your pullups is NOT a true pullup. Strict form, no swinging your legs to get momentum is a TRUE pull up. So quit cheating yourself and do it right.
135# 15:39 rx
Pull-up bar part of the rack - had to clean between sets and low bar meant limited kips. Much tougher than i thought it would be with those constraints, even at lower weight.

Good wod!
#28 Dave--
I think any serious or educated crossfitter (along with the founder himself) would argue that although the kipping pullup is not the traditional Marine Corps "deadhang" pullup, it does a couple things that the deadhang does not accomplish. That is, it utilizes the entire body--back, core, arms, legs-- and it accomplishes the same work in a shorter amount of time = higher power output. This is a chief underlying element in the crossfit regimen, so don't underestimate the intensity aspect, and therefore the gains in athleticism, of kipping pullups in a workout such as this one. Bottom line, it's not cheating, but rather the prescription for this type of workout. Moreover, if you were to do this with strict pullups, it would make this more of a complete strength workout, and would thus be a different workout entirely. Hope that makes sense.

I workout in my home gym. My pull-up bar isn't stable enough to kip, and I'm not strong enough to do a strict pull-up yet, so I do a small jump and a modified kip when I do pull-ups. I did all of them as Rx'd.

In the 'Zone' vid, Chan says something like "we all know what happens when you overdo fish oil." Can someone please provide some detail to that comment? Many Crossfit followers are using fish oil as it has been widely advocated on this site. Other than blood thinning, as mentioned above, no health or performance issues have previously been raised in taking quality fish oil.

Doug Armstrong,
You were one of the coaches who taught the L1 coarse I attended.
The amount of knowledge and how quickly you can transfer that knowledge into people in two days is amazing.
As a trainer it was incredible to see just how good you guys are as trainers!
Thanks for all your help and keep it up mate!

@#78
squat should be from a rack, otherwise it would be a ''clean and squat''.. And a pull up should be a strict pull up and not a kipping pull up(kipping makes it much easier because of the momentum u create).

It's funny how so many people complain that kipping pull-ups are not real pull-ups an then when you ask them to do a few they can't.
Anyway this WOD was fun but surprisingly taxing.

For the "strict pullup" guys, here's an epistemological question: who told you that the "strict pullup" was THE (only) TRUE pullup?
I mean the question genuinely. Who EXACTLY was the person or organization that commanded - and defined for you - the pullup as being sans kipping? Was it some governing body of pullups? because I know of no such organization.
Gymnastics is the sport that most commonly uses 'pullups' as both a training modality and as an element of routines on a bar (male and female) - they most assuredly use both kipping and "strict" in both training and competitions.
I'm genuinely curious if you can name who defined the pullup for you because you weren't born innately knowing that. And, once you've named that person or organization, I'd like to know why they get to define the purity of the pullup by that standard. What is their authority to do so, another words? In your mind.
Look forward to your answer.

I did this WOD yesterday afternoon
I used 190 lbs adn did the WOD in 5:08
I took a few days off for the holidays. I wanted to get a workout in, but both a combination of lazyness and inconvenience, and seeing relatives prevented that... I DID regret taking 4 days off, but sometimes that happens. I wanted to work with some weight, but be a little bit cautious to not overdo it.
Post WOD I did floor plate pushes/ drives for 100'. I used 45, 70, 80, 90, 100... the 100 lbs was a little bit less dynamic and should probably stay at 90 and keep a faster leg speed and drive.
Warming up for the FS I did:
95 lbs x 8
125 lbs x 6
155 lbs x 5
170 lbs x 5
180 lbs x 5
I think i might have slightly pulled my back, but I warmed up nicely and everything felt good.. but my lower back was a little bit sore and tight from the DL a while back.. I'm still feeling a little off in my lower back, but o.k. to train sub maximal.

PU not bad. Shouldn't have broken set of 15. Set of 20 - 12+8. FS tough, but not real bad. Toes pointed out, good breath. Really tight stomach coming out of the hole.

225 lbs on front squat. Could've easily done more, so will shoot for 275 next time. Time would have been better, but my hands kept slipping on pull-ups...yes, I'm blaming the equipment!

Good workout. Decided to do ~80% of my 1RM, which was 191 lbs. Got all the front squats unbroken, but pull-ups I had to break-up since I did rock-climbing the previous day. Shot out grip lol 5:19 :D
