Squat x 5: 275, 315, 335, 355, 355 (all-raw)

Decided to do all squats raw. Felt like if I had a belt on I could have done more, but it was a good experience. Last time I did this I used a belt and I went up to 395. Not sure if a belt helps that much or if it was an off day or both…

Deadlift and Burpees

Did Grace earlier today (2:00pm).

Came in with Amanda around 6:15pm.

Had been wanting to try this since I saw a video of it posted on the main site.

five rounds for time of

275# Deadlift, 5 reps
10 Burpees

Time: 3:34.29

Really liked this one.

Grace

CFWU x 3 (only did 3 c2b pull-ups...hands still tore up)

Grace

30 reps for time of 135 pound Clean and Jerk.


Grace as Rx'd (power cleans not squat cleans)

Time: 2:47

Wednesday, May 6, 2009

Push Jerks 1-1-1-1-1-1-1 reps

CFWU x 3 (did not do Pull-ups or Dips)

Warm-up with 155-185

225-245-265-280-295 (failed)

Mind was not in it today. I was running late and had to move on to next WOD to make up for missing yesterday.

Cash-out:
2x20 of 45# KB swing

Pull-up Variations

Ten rounds for time of:
3 Weighted Pull-ups, 45 pounds
5 Strict Pull-ups
7 Kipping Pull-up

For weighted pull-ups place a 45 pound dumbbell between the legs above crossed ankles and jettison the dumbbell after third rep and continue with strict pull-ups and then the kipping pull-ups. Coming off the bar or going to ground constitutes termination of a set.

Post time and number of sets to completion.

Here is how it all unfolded…

Round and Number of Sets per round.

1. 2 sets. (as Rx'd with 45#)
2. 3 sets. (as Rx'd with 45#)
3. 3 sets (as Rx'd with 35#)
4. 4 sets (3 with 35# + 12 kipping)
5. 3 sets (3 with 25# + 12 kipping)
6. 4 sets (3 with 25# + 12 kipping)
7. 4 sets (3 with 20# + 12 kipping)
8. 4 sets (3 with 20# + 12 kipping)
9. 4 sets (3 with 20# + 12 kipping)
10. 3 sets (3 with 20# + 12 kipping)

After round three I did the three weighted pull-ups and then did 12 kipping pull-ups.

Time: 27:02

This…by far is my most dreaded WOD. I am terrible at it. I feel like I am pretty good at kipping, but my dead hang and weighted are lacking. I used to do nothing but dead hang and was pretty good at them, but since Crossfit I have done kipping almost exclusively. I may start doing some dead hang again just to improve strength.

Hansen

Warm-up: 1 mile jog to loosen up after yesterday’s Tabata and Thursdays Squat Cleans.

Five rounds for time of:
2 pood Kettlebell swing, 30 reps (70# DB swing)
30 Burpees
30 Glute-ham sit-ups

Dude…this was one of the toughest WODs I have done to date.

Did as Rx’d with full ROM on DB swings and GHD sit-ups

Time was long: 45:02

Realized I probably schould have scaled when it took me almost 14-15 min to do two rounds, but I was too stubborn to stop and scale once I had started…besides, I figured 45 min of fighting off pukie and mind numbing fatigue is better than 25 min.

Definitely looking forward to the rest day tomorrow…

Hopefully the next time this comes up I will be somewhere in the 30’s.
