For Time:

50 Wall Ball / 5 Rope Climbs
40 Wall Ball / 4 Rope Climbs
30 Wall Ball / 3 Rope Climbs
20 Wall Ball / 2 Rope Climb
10 Wall Ball / 1 Rope Climb

Rx’d Weight for Men/20lbs & Women/12lbs

My Performance: 21:15 Rx'd again!

Exciting day at the gym today! I Rx'd the workout alongside one of my favorite crossfitter's--Uncle Dan! I didn't know if I could rope climb, but Uncle Dan showed me some military secrets of rope climbing. I'm excited to see if I make "Top 5".

Friday, April 10, 2009 WOD:

Snatch

1-1-1-1-1-1-1

This was the workout we were supposed to do.

And this is the workout that we did:

Snatch to hip, Snatch to high pull, Full Snatch. Three movements equal one rep. 50 reps.

I had to do it with 55lbs. 150 movements with 55 lbs equals not as much fun as doing snatches--And I can't make the top five. Oh well, maybe next time.

Monday, April 6, 2009 WOD:

Clean & Jerk

1-1-1-1-1-1-1

My Performance: 53-73-93-103-(108/)-108-113

I was really excited about this. I think I did really well. My clean from January was 105 lbs. I missed the first 108 lbs because I bent my arms on the jerk.

Friday, April 3, 2009 WOD:

Shoulder Press

1-1-1-1-1-1-1

My Performance: The book said 65 lbs, but I think I remember it being 70 lbs.

I think it went something like: 55-60-65-70-(75/)-(75/), but I could be wrong. We'll go with 65 lbs--that way I have a bigger PR next time!

Wednesday, April 1, 2009 WOD:

April Fool's WOD:

“The Kirk”

3 Rounds for Time of:
8 Bench Press (M/185 & W/135)
8 Bent Over Dumbell Rows
8 Dumbell Flies
8 Dumbell Raises
8 Crunches
8 Bicep Curls
8 Behind the back Wrist Curls
Rx’d Weight on Dumbell Exercises is Men/45lbs & Women/30lbs

The REAL WOD:

"Nasty Girls"

3 rounds for time:

50 Squats
7 Muscle Ups
10 Hang Power Cleans

Rx's Weight for Hang Cleans is Men/135lbs & Women/90lbs

My Performance: 28:57 MOD

I don't like body weight workouts--because I CAN'T DO THEM. I had to do 4 ring dips and 4 pull ups to equal 1 mucsle up. Then I had to do them both 6 MORE TIMES. I did Hang Cleans with 83 lbs because this is the first time I've done Hang Cleans. They're pretty fun. I'm sure I could have pulled off 90 lbs but the first few were awkward until I got the rhythm of it.
It's frustrating b/c I'd have to be itty bitty with huge muscles to do this workout, whereas the men either need to be itty bitty OR have huge muscles to do it. The girls in the video are beastly. I don't want to look like that...although...I wouldn't mind the stomach!

Here's the video--see for yourself:

Monday, March 30, 2009 WOD:

As Many Rounds in 20 Minutes of:

5 L-Pull Ups
10 Hand Stand Push Ups
15 Kettlebell Swings

Rx’d Weight for Kettlebell Swings is Men/24kg & Women/16kg

My Performance: 5 plus 6 HSPU's MOD

This workout is way to hard for me to do Rx'd. I did L-sits--hold for 10 sec. Still way harder than it should be. I did kipping HSPU's but Rx'd the KB weight. I didn't feel very fatigued like I normally do (so I didn't have to invoke my mental toughness) but I sweat ALOT. The kipping HSPU's were easier than the MOD HSPU's--I thought anyway.

Friday, March 27, 2009 WOD:

As Many Rounds in 20 minutes of:

10 Thrusters
10 Pull Ups

Rx’d Weight for Men/95lbs & Women/65lbs

(thrusters are full squat)

My Performance: 6 rounds Rx'd

Deceitfully killer WOD. Need I say more? Even the guys had problems getting more that 5 rounds. Totally sucked and I sweat way too much.
