Did yesterday's CrossFit Games WOD #5 at home. 30 Wall Balls / 30 Hang Squat Snatch for time. Did the first 10 reps with just the bar, then had to drop back to just a broom stick to keep good form. Time: 24:24.
ReplyDeleteHow did they do this yesterday at RX weight after everything else? I now understand why so many went DNF. I am in awe.
I may try a scaled version of today's WOD #2. I am rigging up a GHD now using my jump box and hooking my feet under the car bumper! Sweet!
Soon our coach will be back but I thank all of you for the efforts you demonstrated today. I am sure the heat did not help with those runs! All-Star time...
ReplyDelete1) Tom: Stuck around and did all of the workouts with us bringing his total to 4 in one day! Get that Icy Hot ready for tomorrow
2) Cindy: For someone that does not like to run, you did awesome! You beat my time from February and you had a hill to deal with! AWESOME. Also, it has to be noted that you did not let yourself take a break longer than 5 seconds. Loved it. I wish I had that mental drive.
3) Ed: Awesome effort and way to finish strong.
4) Scott: Destroyed it, well done. Can't wait to make you do it again with a GHD. :)
5) All of the People that did Grif. I am happy that you challenged yourself and did a workout that may look funny and is something that you may have never done before. Well done.
Last but not least...
6) Sam: Awesome effort over 2 days. I am excited to work out with you and help you get ready for the qualifiers next year. I think you will definitely be ready as soon as you get your kips down. Also, I swear I did not decide to do all 7 workouts just so you couldn't practice your kips so Aimee can win. ;)
Two more WODS here at home:
ReplyDeleteEvent #2:
AMRAP 8 min: 4 HSPU, 8 KB Swings, 12 GHD SU's. Did HSPU's off my 20" Box, used 35# KB, Used jump box as GHD hooking feet under car bumper.
Completed 4 rounds. Homemade GHD worked great. I was careful not to extend too far. GHD situps can cause some serious rabdo for the uninitiated, and they are hard.
Final WOD:
3X10 35# KB Snatch in 5:00. I had to work in the snatches somehow, but I don't have a lot of weight here.
This ends the 2009 CrossFit Masters Division Games. Time to drink beer and swim!
