After 8 months of CrossFit, I finally got an unassisted pull-up! Took me that long. I can string together 3, kipped. In that same week, I also got my handstand push-up (with a kip). The Open has pushed me ot do more. Love it!
That's so great! Way to go!0 -
I PR'd my back squat and my deadlift last week!0
-
Two PR's in one week. Thats awesome!!0

GREAT JOB!Finally got DUs0 -
I am pretty new to crossfit but today I
PRed DUs by putting 3 together in a WOD (I've on RARE occasion done this before but never in a WOD). Stringing together for me = 2,1,1,2,1,1,2 unbroken
PR back squat of 75# (up from 55 last time).0 -
Two victories for me tonight! First, I did 20 consecutive DU during a WOD, and pushed through to complete the 100 DU at the intro and cash out of the WOD. Second, I did my first toes to bar. Wahoo!
I'm especially proud because doing 10 consecutive DUs was my goal for February, and toes to bar was my goal for March. Our coaches encourage us to make goals and post them on this giant board for everyone to see, and I stay after each workout to practice.
Huh, it's funny. You set a goal for yourself, work on it every day, and poof! You can do it. It's that simple I guess!
I wonder what my goal should be for April...

You read my mind! I was thinking about it.0 -
I'm another crossfit newbie (3 months in). Last night I connected my first DUs. I only got 2 in a row but it is progress. I also PR'd my low bar back squat.0

Congrats!
I PRed last night and got a 115 deadlife (up from 95).0 -
I felt like a champ yesterday for completing the "Bull" WOD. For those of you who don't know what it is, it's 2 rounds of 200 DU's (400 singles), 50 OHS, 50 pullups, and a 1 mile run. I can't do DU's yet so all those singles were hard! It took me 52:03 to finish but at the end I felt so awesome!!0

That sounds completely brutal! Nice work.0 -
Lots of victories for me this week. 24" box jump in a WOD, max box jump 30". Max deadlift 135x4. I think I could have done 145 but we don't have 5s at our box. Maxed my back squat at 115x6. Got a few 75# hang cleans in, which makes me less nervous for my competition this Saturday. And best of all I got my kipping pull up down without a band!!! Did 5 in a row. Not bad for 2 1/2 mo of crossfit0

Graduating my onramp class tonight, then onto normal WODs, Woot Woot!0

I so want to nail a kipping pull up :sad:Lots of victories for me this week. 24" box jump in a WOD, max box jump 30". Max deadlift 135x4.

Last night I PR'd my back squat by 25 pounds.
Today I PR'd my hang clean too, by 7 pounds.
Still have a lot of work to do though.0 -
Yesterday I set a new PR for split jerk at 145 lbs. AND in a WOD that ended with 30 pullups, I used a large and small band instead of two large bands and did 17 kipping pullups in a row--the rest came slower, but did it with these bands! I was pretty proud. Hopefully soon I can only have one band.0
-
I went down to the smallest band yesterday for pullups woohoo0
-
I PR'd my back squats by 20lbs on Monday! Kind of un-Crossfit related, but I also ran 5K without taking any walking breaks for the first time EVER! I credit Crossfit for that, because it taught me about mind over matter!0
-
New PR for thrusters... 85lbs.0
-
When I get my single rep dl rep of 4150

This morning I linked 24 double unders! My consistency is still terrible, but it's a victory nonetheless!0

I got up to 133 lbs in my back squat this morning. That's 35 more than last time (two weeks ago). I hope to be up tp body weight by the 12-week mark.0 -

Holy smokes that is awesome!!! You are a beast!0 -
I'm stoked about cleans tonight. I was so frustrated with this lift because it just wasn't clicking for me. Tonight it all seemed to make sense and I PR'd by 25lbs (85lb clean). We weren't supposed to max out so I feel like I could have gone heavier. So excited!0
