50-40-30-20-10 & 10 rounds?!
and those darn WB's - those 14lb balls hurt my wrists on the way down!0 -
"Morrison" is one hell of a workout! Way to go.
Yesterday we did Fight Gone Bad and it let me know just how much I've lost my upper body strength. Those push presses felt heavy and I was so slow on them.
FGB:
3 Rounds, 1 min max rep/cal
1 min wall ball (20/14 to 10')
1 min Sumo Deadlift High Pull (95/55)
1 min box jumps (20")
1 min Push press (95/55)
1 min row
1 min rest
Total: 230 rx'd. Well we only have 1 14# ball, so I use the 20# ball and throw it up btwn 9' and 10'.
This morning I did a 4 mile run followed by 5x10 on the assisted pullup machine, starting to get that strength back. I'll be back in the afternoon, to hit our WOD for today.0 -

I've done that one before, I like it!! I like when there are bunch of different circuits to do, especially the ones that don't include running. LOL0 -

Today's WOD:
CrossFit Games WOD 10 (minus prowler pull)
For Time:
20 cal row
30 Wall Ball (20/14)
20 toe-to-bar
30 box jumps (24"/20")
20 SDHP (95/65) - they used heavier KB at the games, but our gym doesn't have enough KBs so it was easier to do it using barbells
30 burpees
20 Shoulder-to-OverHead (135/95)
Score: 14:40 using 65# for both SDHP & Push Press - could have jerked more, but i'm really trying to listen to the doctor about easing into my shoulder again.
Happy w/my time. But all that more AMAZED by the awesome women at the games. Samantha Briggs took first on this wod doing it in 13:06 WITH a prowler pull and AFTER a round of this AMRAP 3 min and AMRAP 6 minutes.
Toe-to-bar are the death of me. I just cannot get into a rhythm and fall to drop down after every three. Any suggestions for knocking these out?

"Morrison" is one hell of a workout! Way to go.
Yesterday we did Fight Gone Bad and it let me know just how much I've lost my upper body strength. Those push presses felt heavy and I was so slow on them.
I signed up for for FGB6, so I really need to do it again before mid-September just because it's been a really long time since I've done it.
Is anyone else doing FBG6 this fall??0 -
we're doing FGB up at our affiliate, but this time we are raising $ for a different cause. Since we are in Canada we'd like our dollars go to Canadian forces, so we are doing the event separate from the official event.
Kerri - Scaled means lower weight or modified exercise. A 95 pound thruster is damn heavy!! I consider myself pretty strong (I compete with my CF trainer for time and weight lifted). I can do it, but last WOD I did with thrusters, I scaled to 85lbs - more for my knee than anything else.
I took the day off yesterday and went to six flags with the kids and another friend from my CF box. it was a lot of fun, but we ate McD's :grumble: then had a slush with ice cream in it:noway: but we did walk from 11-7 in the heat & humidity of the day. Must've burned that crap off! Back at it this a.m.!0 -

I'm doing FB6 at CrossFit 27:17 in Jackson, Mississippi if anyone is in the area. I did it there last year. So much fun!0 -
8/4/2011 WOD:
"CrossFit Games Masters Workout"
10 HSPU
20 Wall balls (14lbs 10 feet)
30 T2B
40 Power cleans (65lbs)
50 Burpees
60 SDHP (40lbs)
Time: 18 min
Did this with a sore back (I'm hoping it's just sore and not hurt) so I modified the HSPU with pike push-ups off 24in box. The Rx weight for the power cleans was 95lbs but my back couldn't take it. The Rx for the SDHP was 53lbs and again b/c of my back I couldn't do anything heavier. With my time I would have been in the 65+ age group, knowing that is very humbling. But I have a lot of time to improve
8/5/2011 WOD:
"Tabata"
-Row (cal)
-Push-ups
-Squats
-Sit-ups
-Pull-ups
Score: 49-63-105-79-40
Total: 3360 -
I'll tell ya, I went Monday - Thursday this week, and I was gonna get up and do a 5th session in a row this morning, but my body was telling me otherwise!! Yesterday's Morrison workout really did me in! So a rest day for me!0

Our affiliate uses it and I post there sometimes. I haven't been tracking for a long time because my box wouldn't update immediately and I'd always forget after.0 -
Aug 5th WOD
5 rounds for time
12 snatch grip deadlifts
9 power snatches
6 Overhead Squats
RX was 95 for women. I did 65...glad I used that weight as I was considering 75 but knowing full well my 1RM OHS weight is about 85-90 lbs. That was like a Bear Complex for Snatches.
Power skill was 1k row
Supplemental was 2 x 500m row with 90 sec break between.0 -

That's good I can snatch maybe 50, I have a really hard time with those. The move is just not fluent.0 -
it's fluid if you get the burgener part down, the pull from your thigh, hip extension and quickly getting under the bar, but it's hard and requires a lot of control!! I can snatch 90 as my 1RM on a good day. The most challenging part was doing the OHS after the snatches. My elbows and wrists were TOAST!0

WOD 8/5
10 handstand pushups
20 wallballs
30 toes to bar
40 power cleans
60 sumo dead lift high pull
50 burpees
Wow. That is the closest I have ever come to puking in a workout. Ever. I was put in a group with the new people (first class ever) because I hadn't done all of the moves (never done t2b or power cleans) which meant that they got the training bars and I was stuck with a real O-bar. That was more weight than I could really handle on top of the fact that I was having a hard time breathing today already. Toes to bar just about wiped me out on its own. I didn't actually finish my SDLHPs. I did 52 of them. I only did about 8 of my burpees when she called time. I actually ran outside (well, stumbled) because I thought I was going to throw up. I'm glad I didn't, but maybe that would have helped me to feel better. I don't know. I still feel pretty miserable.0 -
8/6 WOD
Warmup today was, Tabata rounds of jumping jacks, mountain climbers and 25# plate squats. 12 rounds total.
WOD #1: Karen: 150 wall balls with 16# ball, time 7:58
WOD #2 with partner: 1st person runs 400m while other does 1 arm kettle bell swings (we used 26# bell). Switch back and forth until our team did 1,000 arm swings. Took is 32:30. I ended up running 1.5 miles total and probably half the swings so 250 or so each arm!!
ALSO, I've asked a few times and we are going to do "Morrison" next week!

Hi all,
I am new to MFP but not to CF. I have been WODing for 2 years now.
Name: Carolina
Where you live: Raleigh
Time CF'ing: 2 yrs
Nutrition Plan: Primal w/ some adult beverages a few days a week
Looking forward to meeting people and being held accountable!
I do have a question though. I'd like to make sure my diet is muscle sparing. I'd like to, ideally, lose fat and gain muscle. Easy! Would someone mind sharing their plan with me? I don't want to eat too few calories but I still want to see the fat % decrease.
Thanks!
Oh and our WOD today was Karen. Ugh. 150 WBs. She kills me everytime.0 -
I don't think I did a formal introduction ... my bad.

Look forward, even though most of you and I have already exchanged friend requests, to having our own group of craziness!0 -

I already know what today's WOD is. We're doing Fight Gone Bad today in preparation for next month's Fight Gone Bad 6.
It's a pretty tough workout. At least it only lasts 17 minutes, right?
After Friday's WOD, I'm really not sure I can handle it. I guess it's good that I'm doing it today to see how I handle it. I've already decided I'm going to have to scale it pretty significantly. But at least I'm doing it.0 -
Cherie - I am in the exact same boat. We did Karen on Friday (150 WBs FT) and I am still in pain. I am waiting for them to post the WOD today. Whatever it is, I am already scared - they're on a tare since they got back from the games...0
