For the record...in the Athletic Skills Standards, the Level III (Advanced) and IV (Elite)

I started doing CrossFit in August of '04, thanks to some needling by Brand X Students (Jason and Ricky) and Jeff Martin. I've never looked back. If look at me and say, well, of course YOU can do it, you are a maniac, then that is the beauty of CrossFit at work. Start doing CrossFit and in 6 months time, YOU will be the YOU that YOU looked at in AWE and perhaps a little skepticism. Please sign my GuestBook

400m run (Treadmill 6.0-6.5mph)
55# OHS X 15

All rounds of OHS Unbroken (if you count a rest on the traps a break, then I will take that as broken and be happy).
This is the most sets of unbroken OHS with 55# and the first time I've completed Nancy with more than 45#.

Push Press - ME workout
Push Press 1-1-1-1-1-1-1 reps.
95-105-115-120-125-115-120
125 was ugly and I couldn't repeat it with good form so I went back to 115 then up 5 to 120.

run 800m / 50 squats 3 rounds 20:26
So i started out wanting to repeat an earlier workout:
4x
Run 400m
50 squats.
By the time i got on the treadmill, i had it in my head that i needed to run 800 m. In the middle of the second round, I realized my mistake and figured I'd finish the 3rd round and call it good.
3x

Brad's Hell.
I think because I had to do my workout last night after bedtime, bradley was kind enough to propose a workout for us to do together as a competition. It started out as amrap in 10 of
10 sdhp,
10 situps,
10 pushups,
10 pullups,
10 bench pr,
10 lat pull downs on our nautilus machine
30 second rowing on our Nautilus machine with 15# resistance. This actually is a pretty good sub for rowing
(I swear I did not teach him that lat pull downs were good!)
.
I modified it to:
Brad’s hell w/subs
2 rounds of
10 sdhp,
10 situps,
10 pushups,
10 pullups,
10 bench pr,
10 thruster,
30 row pulls with 15# resistance
Barbell for sdhp, bp and thrusters was 60 or 65#.
16:16 with equip logistics
Bradley did 3.5 rounds of the original workout with about 6 or 7 lb dumbell in 15 minutes. We both were wiped out at the end.
For those who don’t know Bradley, he’s 9 years old and has been going to brand x with me since he was three but doens’t do the kids crossfit except for saturdays. He misses it!

Substandard JT
Did JT and was not happy with any of it.
I did the HSPU with the couch back as a barrier.
I did the rig dips as jumping because I wanted to keep the intensity
After the rings and hspu pushups sucked.
21-15-9
HSPU (barrier)
Ring Dips (jumping)
Push ups
17:06
That sucked.
I looked up my last JT and it was with partial rom hspu and I guess single ring dips in 31 minutes. I won’t call it a PR because it was totally different. The Metcon was good. Yet horrible.
