W.O.D.10.10.12


Eva
5 Rounds for Time
800m run
30 Kettlebell Swings (70/55#)
30 Pull-ups

 (compare to 1.27.12)

Community Notes:
Eva is NOT to be under estimated.  If you are unsure about this workout or you are relatively new to CrossFit, we strongly encourage you to scale to half Eva which is the same number of rounds but chopping everything else in half...400m run, 15 KBS, 15 Pull-ups.  If you have any questions, please ask your coach.

    Hi everyone, for those of you not attending the Adventure Race on Saturday but still want to do something CrossFit related, our friends at CrossFit Generation are hosting a fundraising WOD in honor of Officer Bradley Fox.

    The "Fox" WOD will be held this coming Saturday, October 13th with WOD times at 8am, 9am, 10am, and 11am. Please register on their website: http://www.crossfitgeneration.net/

    There is an athlete cap for each heat. WOD is posted on their website and scaling will be done as needed for the WOD. The rep scheme is after Officer Fox's badge number 441178.

    Hi King, We will be meeting at 9:30 in the parking lot on the other side of the covered bridge in VF Park. There are directions posted at the box or let me know if you need them and I can email them to you. Kids can come if you think they will be ok on the hike and bring your own lunch. We can all hang out afterwards and enjoy a nice picnic. Weather is looking beautiful!

    Afternoon NOTsoDelight with EVA

    RX:
    Paul S 40:19
    Nina 55:04

    Scale:
    Byrnsey 22:18 1/2 Rounds
    Dan M. 28:18 1/2 Rounds/53#/Blu
    Chris A 50:47 45/Blu&Gr
    Barb 39:27 2full&3half/35/blu)

    Allison 33:21 (1/2rounds/18#/Blk)
    Jess C 61:22 (44#/MF)
    Monica 43:44 (26#Russian/Gr)
    Heather 25:05 (1/2rounds/45#)
    Mark B, 32:41 (Row/2rounds+3K)
    Ross 29:59 (3rounds RX)

    Shout out to Nina who made it to the 100 Double Under Board during the warm up. Also to Chris A for doing the full rounds (I could tell that was a big deal).

    I'm going to go out on a limb here, knowing fully well there probably are a few coaches that will disagree with me. I am an advocate of grips for high repition pull ups for several reasons.

    1) I'd rather the athlete finish the workout and keep up intensity, if they rip it effects those abilities.

    2) Rips suck. The first one is cool...but then you get over it.

    3)most peoples, even with good grip strength will rip on high rep pull ups...case in point games athletes.

    4) most competitions allow for some sort of grips for pull ups and their cousins. I've never seen tape banned. Correct me if Im wrong

    5)If you have to randomly do some sort of body weight feat of strength to save your life, it will be a rep or two, not 150 kipping pull ups.

    6) you can make inexpresive tape grips ahead of time for dates with Eva and Angie. Throwing a peice of tape around your hand is not making a tape grip. I'll show you how or you can google it.

    7) Gymnastic grips or the grips from again faster are great (much better than gloves. They are leather, they feel funny at first, but once you break them in you don't hardly notice they are there.

    8) You can skip the grips on Low rep and deadhang. Build grip strenght there. Not to mention the grip strength built in weightlifting without straps and using conventional grip instead of Mixed on heavy deads.

    Thats my humble opinion...i wonder if I'll get away without a fight since jason is in Paris?

    Yeah I never rip, and 300 reps of heavy KBS and PullUps did it. Tape up crew.

    oops, 5:30 and 6:30 results are still on the box's computer...I will ask whoever is coaching tomorrow morning to post them

    Steph, I agree with you except that gymnastic grips and Again Faster versions were not allowed at Regionals. I would default to tape.
