haha oh I know it! I like it though

[B Con]

These are brutal sessions. Keep killing it. Your conditioning has got to be off the charts.

[xfit10]

It's pretty good but it wasn't always..... I remember my very first WOD...

21-15-9 reps, for time of:
Left-arm Kettlebell snatch, 1.5 pood
Right-arm Kettlebell snatch, 1.5 pood
Pull-up
I don't remember my time but the end result was not good! I think uneven had to scale it down to 25 or 35 lbs my buddies still ding let me live it down but i just ask them who won the wod

1/10/13

Barbell bench press
235x3
235x3
250x2
250x2
Negative 275x1

Complete five rounds of:
On the rings, lower from an inverted hang, slowly, with straight body and arms, 7 reps
15 Ring Push-ups
Move SLOWLY and methodically attempting perfect execution.
These were really tough,the burn was felt very quickly! Ring push up were fine, slow with full ROM 15 at a time was no problem. It was s nice change of pace.

Tomorrow I take on "THE FILTHY FIFTY"!!!!

[KissIcon]

I don't think I even want to know what the "Filthy Fifty" is..........
I have seen those ring push ups.....brutal

"Filthy Fifty"

For time:23:10
50 box-jumps @24",
50 jumping pull ups,
50 1-pood kettlebell swings,
50 step walking lunge,
50 knees to elbows,
50 push-presses @45/30LBS,
50 back extensions,
50 wall-ball shots @20/14LBS,
50 burpees,
50 double-unders

Well I didn't murder my previous time but it did improve. Not until after the wod did realize that i did 45 lb kettlebell swing when 1 pood is 35lbs. Oh well it felt good and I still improved my time! Burpees were murder!! I have muscles that are sore that have never been sore before from Thursdays workout on the rings.

[xfit10]

There have been quite a few benchmarks scheduled and looks like there is a few more....these ladies are killers!

[misfit28]

Man, you are killing it!! Your endurance is WAY better than mine!

[xfit10]

Man, you are killing it!! Your endurance is WAY better than mine!

Endurance improvement is huge with crossfit. My buddy at the gym wass about 5'8" 240 lbs and has been doing crossfit for about 8 months. It was really rough for him at the beginning but now he can be up there at the top in just about about WOD. Of course he still dominates on any strength wod but even the cardio based WODs w is a contender, probably about 225 lbs now.

[B Con]

Wow. I was exhausted just looking at all those reps. Great job.

"Karen"

For time:11:07
150 Wallball shots, 20 pound ball

I absolutely hate wall ball shots! Got through the first 50 with no problem but after that I was down to 10 and 5 at a time.

Been eating better, i think I'm looking a little more solid I'm at 168 pounds so really no gain or loss but i think my body comp has changed a little for the better.

[wisdommaster1]

karen is probably my least favorite benchmark, how can something so simple suck so much...

[B Con]

Nice to hear about the body comp. I really feel that's one thing Thrust has been great at helping with.

[MattRage]

gonna have to google crossfit terms so i know what the heck youre talking about but they sound tough

[xfit10]

It's a toss up on what's worse wallball or thruster but they are almost the same thing

Really noticed it once i got past the holidays

I last did this workout on 5/16/12, I weighed 165 lbs and did the workout with 165 lbs, and my score was 79 reps. WOW! Obviously I had a major improvement, my body weight today was 168 lbs so I rounded up to 170 lbs for this WOD. And people say Crossfitters can't do strict pull ups.

[KissIcon]

you know, these "women" sound like complete b*tches lol

Good stuff man. Crossfitters may do a better strict pull ups.

It wasn't too taxing on the chest, afterwards I had a good burn but could have thrown in some more
