I finally met the person in this picture! Good (and large) class with KP this morning.
OHS: 60#, which is a PR, but only by a little. Next time I will be sure to attempt #65 – I think I would have nailed at least one today if I had made time.
WOD: 8:29 with 78# for BS and push-ups kicking up to handstands. I finished early compared to some others in the class, which means I probably should have added more weight to the BS (I was at 75% of max, should have gone for 80% at least). BUT my legs feel shaky now anyway, which is the real point in my mind. 😉
ohs: 165#
wod: rx weight/movements, but I just realized for some reason I got it in my head as a 21/21 rep count. so…rep scaled version: 12:43.
I think my goal for the week is to get a wod right.
OHS: channeling my inner super-flexible cobra inside a french bulldog’s body… with mixed results. 55# and many squat therapy sessions in store.
WOD: 9:19 @ 125# (didn’t feel too bad) and a fancy mix of 2-abmat HSP… then 25 pushup+HS after KP accurately pointed out that my arms needed more than a millimeter’s range of motion (imagine that!). will try next time for air-guitaring with 1 ab mat. thanks all also for the intro to upside-down kipping!
also… is 6:30am tomorrow actually filled up already? 🙁 i’m checking le zenplanner, hope i can squeeze in. otherwise, it’s (sob) 5:30am creakinessssss.
OHS: 95#, trying to give me shoulders a rest so didn’t go heavy
WOD: 14:36? Rx
For some reason I assumed the back squats would be the hard part of this one, but I was able to break those up into 4 sets and finish in 3-4 minutes. The HSPUs on the other hand were miserable. 16 reps in I was only able to do singles. Those last 9 reps probably took 7 minutes. Ready to move on from this one.
Handstand pushups went great (ab mat plus 15lb weights for hands) although I need some wrist guards next time to go faster.
Back squats went fast, and my legs cramped up big time right after the WOD. I’m sore already. Finished in 4:25
The most frustrating things was that I was able to do 10 or so toes to bar after practice without stopping, and I could not for the life of me figure it out on Monday. Alas
i’m sure coach KP prepped the scaled standards that we had for this WOD this weekend.
back squats (from the rack) at 115# and HSPU to 2 abmats: 4:06
anyone who did either the Rx weights above or 185/115, measure yourselves up against the competitors from this weekend! check out WOD 2 here: http://crossfitnewengland.com/2012/09/10/garage-games-results/
oh and there was a 5 minute cap. every rep not completed was a second added on to your time
second or minute? ’cause if it’s a second I just would have done zero reps and DOMINATED!
disregard that…I’m obviously still not thinking clearly…

Hey guys,
It would be greatly appreciated if we could start racking the weights better. Sometimes they get real sloppy and thrown about. Thanks!

5:30 is good for your inner super-flexible cobra. It gets going while the french bulldog is still asleep.
Hey, would people attend a 7:30 am class if I put one on the schedule?
