Great work pulling through this one, the 6's in between were a lot more than most of us bargained for with our morning brains!

Jason Lyons said...

This workout frightens me.

Pete W said...

absolutely brutal. upon arrival at work this morning, a coworker with obvious, genuine concern on his face, asked if i was okay. not okay.

Mike P said...

. . . scores fairly high on the suck-meter . . . good times.

donkey said...

that video is the cutest thing ever.
i don't think i'd ever finish this. pullups and pushups would take me the whole minute.

donkey said...

parenthetical side note, what the hell happened to the captcha? did i piss of the interweb gods? now there are two words and they're twice as hard to read as before.

steph said...

Today is the first day I cursed crossfit. I hate this wod!! grrrr!!

Aimee Lyons said...

Vinny - holy WOD destruction! Nice work!

Mike P said...

Holy cr*p, Vinny! Way to go!

mikefab said...

I don't think I have met Vinny, but from looking at those numbers I think he needs to be checked to see if he is human. I think he maybe a cyborg like in the Terminator.

Well the consensus tells us that this is so far the most fierce WOD of 2012. Me? I think this WOD is an ego-checker. Good fight you guys put up sticking with the frustration that comes with a numbers game like this. Elyse- you're a champ after ripping both hands and wanting to finish it up.

Mike P said...

Right on, Chris.

This. WOD. Kicked. Ass. Loved. It.

Jenny C. said...

Thanks to Aimee and the 9:30 crew for a warm and welcoming class today. I'll be talking about this one back at CFNE for a LONG time!!! WORST. RIPS. EVER.

Paul S said...

Vinny that is the craziest thing I have ever seen, BeastMode. Awesome WOD

Jason Lyons said...

As predicted, this workout kicked me square in the bean bag. HARD. I do not think I should pick up a barbell with more than 95 pounds on it again until I can string 20 pullups with ease and I figure out this whole kipping toes to bar thing...one at a time is NOT the answer. Vinny smoked this thing. It was a pleasure to watch. I, on the other hand got smoked by this thing, it was hellish to watch.

Chris P. said...

Vinny, I hope someone got on your back and you did pull ups after this!
