    Recovery day today. 14.5 took a lot out of me and I haven't had a rest day since I did it. Yesterday was Nicole. Rx'd for the first time!

    Helen was fun yesterday. Definitely favors people from a running background. We had a male and female do it in under 8:30, both college runners.

    I was at 13:57. The swings were pretty easy, I did ring rows and got pretty gassed for the last few reps. For me the runs were just something to slog through. As I get thinner those will get exponentially easier.

    This was a really fun Hero WOD today: Nutts.
    WOD-
    NUTTS
    10 HSPU
    15 Dead Lifts (250/175)
    25 high box jumps (30/24)
    50 pull ups
    100 wall balls (20/14)
    200 Dus
    40 per leg OH plate lunges (45/25) *We can't run outside right now, so we had to sub this for a 400 m run with plate. I got 23:30 but I had to do the HSPU's from a box and use assistance on my pull ups. If I did it again, I would increase my DL weight above 175.

    Partner workout:

    100 burpees, while partner holds HS, when they drop you change places
    60 front squats while partner runs 200m, switching
    1000 m row (500 each)

    We completed in 18:08.

    I puked a little for the first time ever during a WOD. LOL

    Haha I would have held that handstand for 30 mins if it meant no burpees!! :P


    Today's WOD:

    Deadlift to 3x5

    Then
    10-1 (10 each, 9 each, etc)
    Front squat (40kg, RX was 45kg, a little while ago I was front squatting 32.5kg in WODs so was happy to be almost RX)
    Strict chin ups
    HSPU

    I liked this. It was strength focused which is much easier for me!

    Partner WOD today. 20 minute AMRAP. 200m row, 10 unbroken KB swings (2/1) One partner does both, then rests.

    I will probably scale to 1.5. I can handle the weight of the 2p KB, but my grip will go to the point where I can't do them unbroken.

    4 Rounds;
    25 Straight Leg Ab Mat SU/T2W
    25 Stiff Leg Sumo DL 24/16kg (45#plate platforms)
    25 Floor Press 75/55lb

    I did it in 18:26 - Most of the scores were under 10 minutes. I Rx'd the weight, but I was struggling during the last set of Floor Press. I probably could have/should have gone lighter on them, but I'm ok with how I performed.

    15 Thrusters (135/95)
    400m Run
    9 Thrusters (135/95)
    200m Run

    Strength
    7 x 2 High Bar Back Squat - 3 second pause at the bottom of each rep.

    Finished in 12:27. Should have went heavier on the thrusters (did 45lbs). For the strength I did 83/83/93/93/103/103/113. Felt really good in the bottom of the squat today :)

    Wow, what a puker. :)

    So today was my first Fight Gone Bad. I got 284. I will be 41 in 3 days and I have been doing CF for 6 months and I have never played sports. CrossFit is one of the best things that ever happened to me. I am so blessed to say I am stronger and in better shape at 41 than I was at 21! Onward to over 300 next time!

    ^that's fun in a "this is going to suck for everyone" kind of way.

    Tonight is Box Squats as heavy as you can go. 3 reps every three minutes, 24 minutes.

    Cash out is 2 minutes of plank, 1 minute ring upright hold, 5 or 10 skin the cats, 30 second L sit, 30 second GHD sit ups (I'm not sure I can even do one of those.)

    Had to look up skin the cat, that looks unpleasant.

    "Filthy Fifty" - The only other time I did this WOD I was still in my first month, I scaled it (don't know how, probably 25 reps rather than 50) and did it in 25 Minutes.

    I'm actually looking forward to see my time tonight.

    100 burpees for time. I did this probably two weeks into Crossfit and it took me about 22 minutes.

    I'm not looking forward to it but I'm curious to see how long it takes me.
  • kmorgan221
    kmorgan221 Posts: 206 Member
    Well, I did it in 36:11. I scaled some of it, 12 KG kettlebell, knees 2 elbow on a box, and singles not DU, but I did all 500, and only 11 minutes (or so) beyond my 250 rep time.

    We just did "Karen" on Saturday for a fundraiser WOD. I have to say, I almost didn't go because I really didn't want to see wall balls that soon. I'm glad I did, it was great to see that benchmark time.

    14:23 and never doubted I would finish (I most certainly doubted it the first time)

    Strict pull-ups until failure

    We're doing "Jackie" today.
    1000m Row
    50 Thrusters, 45#
    30 Pull-ups

    After three days in a row I think I need a rest day. :noway: However, I just encouraged my wife to start going and tonight will be her third "Intro WOD" before moving into the regular classes. I must be there to set a good example. :smile:

    When I looked at the board yesterday I thought they were taking it easy on us, but I can tell you today that they were not.

    AMRAP 15 Minutes

    10 Box Jumps (scaled to the small box)

    Run 400 m

    10 Thrusters ( 55lbs)

    My grand total: 2 + 10 Box Jumps
    For the first time I jumped on the box instead of stepping up every single time. I'm quite proud of myself.
