    AMRAP for 15 as Rx'd
    lunges wall to wall (10lb plate for me)
    5 ring dips
    10 sit ups

    4 2/3 is what I completed ... I was the only one who got the Rx'd work out in the newbie class. Crossing my fingers that we can hit snatches Friday so I can complete Rx'd WODS everyday!

    I was 30 seconds slower since my last time. I am ok with this since last time I was using the thickest band. Today I was using a lower resistance band. So its a win in my book. One day I will not need bands, I am determined :-)

    At least yours allows bands! I just received my bands and they are "banned" from my box. I'm going to get a ceiling mount pull up bar so I can start practicing and finally get a damned pull up. The bane of my crossfit life... because any WOD with pull ups (or muscle ups/ring dips) I can't Rx

    I don't know why they would ban them. I think it would just be discouraging to not be able to do a pushup and not really have anything to help me do them at all.

    What do you do for pull ups?

    Tues 8/23:
    30 minutes of Plyometrics

    then

    Death by Push-ups (strict)
    1 rep in the first minute, 2 rep in the second minute, 3 reps in the third minute, etc. Go until you can't finish the reps for that minute.
    I completed 9 reps/minute.

    Been training some girls at our box for their first 5K. SO proud of them. Everyone finished.

    My time was 24:36. Good enough for 2nd place in my age group. Hoping I'll get back down to a sub-24 soon.

    Ran a 10 mile road race Saturday so come Monday I was still sore!!! but I did it.

    8/29 WOD:
    5 rounds for time:

    20 KB swings with 44# bell (Rx was 35# ;)
    7 handstand pushups (instead of doing box pushups I was told I could do handstands against the wall, lock elbows and hold)
    20 goblet squats with 44# KB (Rx was just air squats)
    7 toes to bar (I was able to do some, but the rest were knees to chest)

    Time: 21:39

    This was a WOD of a person but I forgot the name!

    Way to above RX Kerri! I would never pick doing goblet squats over air squats, let alone 44# ones.

    Kerri, you're making the rest of us look bad!!! :laugh:

    Today was pretty dang tough. I think sitting on the toilet will be hard tomorrow. :embarassed:

    WOD: "Sa-squat-ch"

    5 Rounds for time:

    10 Squat Snatches
    10 Overhead Squats
    10 Squat Cleans
    10 Front Squats
    10 Back Squats

    Do 3 burpees on the minute every minute = 87 burpees!! Yow.

    Finished in 29:59 to avoid another 3 burpees. LOL

    RX was 45# for women, I did 30#. I just cannot get those overhead squats on a higher weight and we had to use the same weight for all.

    Kerri does make us all look bad - look at her - she's smokin'! But so are all my strong women crossfitters!

    AUG 30th WOD
    Modified for my knee

    25-20-15-10-5 KBS (16kg)
    40-30-20-10-5 calorie row
    14:55

    Worked on my assisted pull ups.

    As you know my box doesn't allow bands, but I brought mine in to practice. Can anyone tell me how they used their bands for assisted pull ups? I thought you put your foot in it, but my trainer made me wrap it around my shoulders? Is that right? Even like that I couldn't do a pull up with the thickest black band!?
