    Loved the PUs…(I’ve gone pink now…)
    Didn’t mind the rowing…
    Love the DUs
    HATE BURPEES with a PASSION !!!
    Time: 24:48

    I find that on pull ups and dbl unders I can blow off a big chunck of reps in the first set…then the burn sets in on the first rest and then the number of reps in each set goes down drastically

    Awesome picture – what a sweetie!

    Johanna Grace – used 50# finished in just under 12 mins. Glad the rowing was only 300m.

    65 pullup
    700m row
    65 k2e
    700m row
    65 burpees

    20:41
    I admit that I snitted on about 10 k2e. Not proud of it. But I vowed to stop doing it after about 35 reps (I had about 10 reps where only 1 knee touched elbow instead of both)

    L-sits were practically nil after yesterday and today. I’m going to have to try again later in the day. If you find yourself in the same position, try them between a couple stacks of books, on the kitchen counter, between two coffee tables, wherever. Just get’em done…. or add them to your workout next time.

    I’m kind of happy I guessed wrong because i don’t think I can do 100 pound thrusters. “It’s not a boy V2.0″ with double unders Rx’d @ 20:22. When I did the math, I estimated I couldn’t do sub 20 but I came close, so I’m happy with that.
    Pullups: 15-10-9-10-5-5-5-4-2
    Rowing: 2:35 to 2:50 pace
    Double unders: 25-10-10-10-10
    Burpees: 35-30

    I’m pumped my time was better than I thought it was going to be! Burpees need work though. Oh, and beet greens = yum :) (Sauteed with bacon fat and sea salt, coarsely chop the red “stalk” part, tastes like beet) I threw in some chopped leek…at least I think they were leeks, they looked like over-sized green onions…but I don’t think the greens needed them, I just felt like trying it out.

    Today was my first official Crossfit workout…did not Rx the weight as my Clean and Jerks are more “jerky” than clean….. I flipped and got the Johanna Grace (thank god) because It would have taken an hour to finnish the K2E… :)

    It was nice meeting everyone and I will see you very soon…..

    Thanks again Brendan.
