Did this at CF HSV at 12:30 with some of the regional competitors. Russell was on another WOD from a few days ago, so I was able to WOD with Jordan, Kevin, and Tracey. Had a great time. The effect of competition can’t be overstated. Kevin and I were neck and neck the entire WOD, and I know I would have been closer to 9-10 minutes had I done this alone. BTW, Jordan did the full prescribed WOD with 30″ box jumps and chest to bar pullups. Holy work capacity, Batman!
Edited to add: After the WOD I PR’d on double unders with 86 unbroken.

I did this one at CF HSV. The 30″ box jumps were intimidating at first. It wasn’t that bad once I got used to it. I felt like I rested too much…I hate that feeling after a WOD. There is a mental aspect to these kinds of WODs that I need to work on. All in all it was a good day for me though. I have to have a rest day tomorrow due to my schedule, so I might work on some skills tonight at CFI.
10:31 as rx’d
9:12 Rx. Good effort from everyone in the gym today. Awesome job pushing through Rx Gean
9:40 as Rx’d. I did have a slightly elevated target to hit on the GHD situps because of my height and the full extension pinches my low back.
Wanted to be somewhere between silver and gold, made it through the first round with the blue band, 24″ box, and KTE, the remaining rounds were green band and abmat, but I kept the 24″ box throughout. 15:59.
14:30 Rx’d
I have some work I need to do on those GHD’s but I’ll be ok with more training.
Post-WOD: Victor challenged me to a box jumping competion. I jumped 46.5″ (PR) and took third on the board. Watch out though cause Victor is right behind me so I need to work on that.
Good job to everyone tonight pushing through this in the 6:15 class.
15:23 with 22″ box
This was a very interesting WOD and I have to admit the box jumps caused the most problems for me. Chest to bar pullups are no joke and were extremely difficult. A lot of my reps did not count on these which hit me on time as well. Next time I will get this WOD under 15 mins no matter what 🙂
Great job to everyone today… I always enjoy watching people work hard and push themselves to new limits!
14:57 Rx’d
Was good to have Tristan there to “compete” with on this WOD. It pushed me. I think next time I can go faster. First time working out on a GHD, never had access to one before in the ol’ garage gym. Sandbag on the ankles and hanging off a truck tailgate was my GHD machine. Great workout, though. Enjoyed it. The 30in box jumps were challenging once fatigue set in. My chins tell the tale of that. Everyone pushed hard on this tonight. Oh, and ladies…..you might want to take a look at the womens leader board on box jumps. Theres a new Queen of the Hill.
Had a lot of fun coaching tonight. Everyone challenged himself or herself, especially with the box jumps. Saw a lot of sheer determination from Gean, Greg, and Tabitha as they pushed through to finish. Nice job to everyone who is now able to often go prescribed that was scaling significantly only a few weeks ago. I’ve noticed, and your progress speaks for itself. Victor was pulling chest to bar pullups tonight and has only been off the band a couple weeks. Christina also greatly challenged herself with box jumps.
BTW, we need more impromptu leaderboard competitions post-WOD. Makes me sleep better at night.
22:11 as rx’d. Boy was that a never ending 22 minutes. It was nice to finish my first crossfit workout as rx’d even if it took twice as long as the next closest person. Thanks for the support Hudson and the rest.
16:44, band assisted (green) & 24″ box jumps. Got easier at the end.
I enjoyed the post WOD box jump with Tristan, Victor and Monique! It was great to watch!
But she did knock me of the board! They were handling business! Great class!
Nice job to everyone! 11:30 rx’d.
11:10 as rx’d, really great to see as many people do the 30 inch box jumps.
Fun WOD.
