Calorie Rows
Power Cleans at 135
Toes to bar

with a 25 minute time cap i just got finished with the 10s

 

[Mark Chisholm]

I realized this week that I was doing knees to Elbows wrong Thought it was meant to high jump in place not hanging from a bar.

 

[Mark Chisholm]

Did this after work yesterday and am sore already. I broke during the 8th round of pull ups and time ran out.

Mary:
Complete as many rounds as possible in 20 minutes of:
5 handstand push-ups

[marlinspiker]

Today
Emom of 5 115 lb bump n go snatch

Then
50 cal row
40 pull ups
30 toes to bar
20 ring pull ups

12 min 58 sec

 

[Mark Chisholm]

I don't have rings or I'd try it. Sounds like a pretty darn good time.

 

[marlinspiker]

you should get some. Ring pullups, dips, and pushups are really good for core stabilization

Nice. Mary ain't no joke. I wimped out and did cindy for 15 rds. Pistols are not my strong suit.

 

[Mark Chisholm]

They weren't mine either, but they got better each time. Keep trying and you'll be glad when you say the same.

 

[marlinspiker]

i cant do pistols yet. i broke both of my ankles and my foot in three separate incidences and ankle flexibility isnt my strong suit. i do a version of them on a 30 inch plyo box. maybe that should be a goal for this year.

 

[Mark Chisholm]

I can't do overhead squats as it focuses too much stress on my middle (torn up from loading wood for decades) back. Have to listen to your body sometimes.

 

[rdradakovich]

Goals for me is be develop good form and perform full ranges on pistols, overhead squat/ snatch, double unders, toes/knees to bar and handstand push ups. I can get alot of these scaled or with low weight so I just need to take that next step. Next year bar muscle ups....

 

[marlinspiker]

overhead squats suck for me too. I can do 135 and thats about it. my Handstand pushups are good and my dubs suck.

 

[rdradakovich]

I got a nice crossfit type cable jump rope for Christmas. It definitely helps. It also hurts if you hit yourself. I consider it extra motivation to not mess up.

 

[Mark Chisholm]

5 Handstand push-ups
10 One-legged squats
15 Strict Dips
20 24" Box jumps
25 Pushups

[Mark Chisholm]

I'm not a serious crossfiter. I just like some workouts here and there. Good luck though. That's really cool.
