    Did 1/2 a hand stand push up this morning - quite an achievement for someone who had a real fear of doing a handstand :blushing:

    Yay! Being inverted is a BIG thing for me as an adult.

    4.5 months into CrossFit and I scored my first DU last week. Not stringing any together yet, but hopefully by the end of the summer.
    That's awesome! You will soon string them together!
    It happened this Tuesday! Only 2 at a time, but it's coming along.

    As for lifts, we've been doing one 1RM a week. Last week it was Back Squat (163 lbs) and this week Front Squat (155), that's +30 and +32 lbs respectively for those PRs. I also PR'd my deadlift this week at 205 lbs (6x3), but it wasn't a 1RM.

    I tackled Fran for the first time today! She literally kicked my butt! Almost 10 hours later and I'm exhausted! But I finished! Bands on pullups and just the 30# bar, but I finished in 9:38 without puking!

    My toes actually tapped the bar today. A T2B? Me? I was shocked. Only 1 in each set of 5 (3 rounds), but I'm still happy.

    I had a GREAT week last week,

    Increased by "Crossfit Total" by whopping 85KG since November, got my first DU (proving hard to replicate but will keep trying) and got a bit of progress on my walk walk, so aiming to get "nose to wall" by the end of the summer :)

    Then box jumps....

    Maybe not a big deal to some, but i've done S2 on the last 2 days of WODs. It makes a change from always going straight to the S3 scaling option. I'm sure it won't last when we start lifting heavy again, but for gymnastic stuff, box jumps, rowing, kettlebells etc, I'm not taking the easiest option. Yay!

    Last night we did an escalating WOD

    Press 10 reps
    Overhead Squat 15
    Push Press 20
    Front Squat 25
    Jerk Press 30
    Back Squat 35

    I was last (as usual) but once I did 10 back squats I realized I still had some gas in the tank so I took a break (bar still on shoulders) and did the last 25 in one set.

    I then laid down on the mat for a couple of minutes so I wouldn't die. My barbell and weights were gone by the time I recovered. Will be paying that one forward somehow Wednesday.

    First time posting in the group. First time I've felt worthy lol. :P
    I've been crossfitting for about 2 months now and last night I PR'd my dead lift at 185 and also completed my first lifting WOD at the RX weight! Yay for small victories. :)

    Completing a WOD at RX is far from a small victory. Congratulations!

    Did Fran last night in 12:30. My previous time was 19:30 so I beat my old time by a long shot. Used 65# for thrusters and did kip pullups. I love benchmark days!
