ATTENTION BEER LOVERS: I clearly will be the designated driver this year but I plan to attend this beer drinking event if anyone else is interested: http://lansdalebeerfest.com/

I went last year and it was a blast with a HUGE selection of beer. I guess I will inhale deeply and enjoy the smell of hops in the air this year!

I remember when mainsite put this workout up and the very next day it was the movements, but reverse order. People's times were different b/c (I think) the burpees first or last

Here is the KoP results for the reverse order of today's: http://aimeesfitnessblog.blogspot.com/2011/09/wod-92811.html

Chris P. said...

Mel, is that your official announcement?

Unknown said...

Thanks for posting that Chris!! This will actually be the first workout where I can compare myself (even if it is reverse order haha)

Cline said...

I like the reverse (burpees last). Pullups/HSPU were by far the worst part of this wod, so I'd rather get them out of the way while I'm fresh.

And then there's less worry about pacing myself with the burpees.

Melanie said...

Chris P- I have started spreading the news, yes. I can't hide my "beer gut" for much longer anyway! If people can't read between those lines.....

I used the 55# KB for kettlebell swings and scaled HSPU with a 24" box.

Stasie said...

Congratulations Melanie! I've read between the lines & wanted to say something prior but wasn't sure. It will be fun watching you in the upcoming months.

Megs said...

What movements would you add or subtract from this list?

http://jasonferruggia.com/weight-training-exercises/

Paul S said...

Mel-Your Hilarious. This WOD looks Insane.

Chris P. said...

Megs,

I would
-add: weighted chin ups
-replace: press with push press
-might have mentioned in bodyweight article: sprint
-might get rid of: snatch (works CNS mostly)

pretty good list though. My top three for gaining strength/mass are squat, deadlift, and sprint.

Paul S said...

Megs-What Chris said. And Add-Flat Bench Press.

Megs said...

Weighted Chinups, good one Plentus!!

I was thrilled to watch you guys do this WOD...because I got to watch...ha ha. It was funny to hear multiple people say the burpees were the easiest...Gabe stay positive man... We will get those HSPU for ya man...don't sweat it.

donkey said...

I'd get rid of high pulls, frankly, and exchange for C&J which will do much the same and benefit your whole body.

Seconded: deads, snatch, squat, sled, KBS

Add, depending on goals:
1. dead hangs
2. good mornings
3. rack pulls and/or deficit deads
4. banded deads, squats, bench
5. box squats

Vinny said...

Ben congratulations... Your a demon! I knew you could do it. John C, congrats man, you should be proud of that lift, we are all very impressed... Well at least I am man...savor the flavor bro...

Chris P. said...

congrats Ben and John! and Muscles from Steve's club, he got a muscle up too!

J Coxhead said...

Thank you all. I will savor the top spot for as long or as short as I have it. I was stuck at 175 for the longest time and it felt good to break it. Hard work does pay off.

Paul S said...

John C has been in BEASTMODE all week, Unreal stuff man. Reminder: MegaMillions tomorrow. This is your week.
