  • SATURDAY 010217 Workout

    Rope climb and do push-ups non-stop for 30 minutes.
    The objective here is to climb and push until you can do neither.
    Thoroughly exhaust both functions within 30 minutes.
    Report the details of the experience both today and the effects tomorrow.

    Count the number of trips up the rope (the CrossFit rope is a 13' "shorty")
    and the number of push-ups within the half hour. Remember the CrossFit
    push-up is a very rigid body, deep, controlled movement.
    No cheating on the push-up!!

    Find a swimming hole/pool and pound out 15 fast laps!!

  • TUESDAY 010220 Workout

    Bike 5 mins hard.
    Dumbbell Bench-press 15 reps.

    Bike 5 mins hard.
    Dumbbell Bench-press 15 reps.

    Bike 5 mins hard.
    Dumbbell Bench-press 15 reps.

    After a warm-up make your first effort a heroic effort on the bike
    and record the distance. Take any rest needed and give the best
    dumbbell bench-press you can at fifteen reps or less. Again, rest
    as long as you want then repeat both efforts. Use the same
    weight for each bench press set.

    If the first cycling and bench-press effort are true max efforts, then
    the second and third efforts are not repeatable no matter how long the rest.

    To test the quality of the first efforts and demonstrate the point of the
    workout take a LONG break after each couplet.

    Keep the rest between cycle effort and bench-press constant for each couplet.

  • 20 Rope Climbs 15' for time Workout

    20 rope climbs for time (15')
    about 12:15
    I did this and felt o.k. but not overly warm before going. I taped all fingers well and that was a good thing.
    I was trying to really concentrate on pulling my knees up high to really use my legs as much as possible. I was trying to do 2 pretty close together on the minute, but by my 4th round of 2s I was already feeling it to be honest.
    My grip was a bit tired and forearms. I was trying not so much to pull with my arms, as to grip the rope hard and then pull myself and knees up to regrip the rope with my legs and drive up that way.
    Good workout. I was tired but needed to stretch out a bit and then I went upstairs to stretch and then to do the 50 calestetics movement new WOD upstairs, called "Marguerita"
