Did 135# for 7 rounds then dropped to 115# because my form was shit. Not happy whatsoever with my performance today.
Thanks EJ for the form work, and thanks WODfather for the advice, it’s all very appreciated.
187
13:05 RX’d. 1/4 gallon milk.
I soul cycled….and I liked it?
Maybe I was still drunk
14:28 Rx’d.
13:28 @ 115 lbs. a year ago.
I wish I had an excuse for this poor performance. KPO staring me in the face did not even get me to finish faster. This was a fun one, I would like to try it again soon.
15:35 as Rx. Last time did 14:xx w/ 115#, but today ROM better.
Not a fan of deadlift WODs, but this weight was ok. The pushups, as usual, killed me.
Happy Friday, good citizens of Metropolis! Off to check the Wodfather’s FB page.
Paige wins post of the year and its only February.
Maybe it’s a dumb question, but what is the difference between soul cycle and spin?
18:56 Rx
18:40
Deadlift was no problem, but my shoulder wasn’t digging the push-ups. I will have to start doing these on my own to get the strength back
@BAston God, what a dumb question. Spinning is just riding a bike in place, while Soul Cycle is this transformative process whereby your soul becomes cleansed, you reach a higher spiritual plane and become the person you’ve always wanted to be in just 45 minutes…while riding a bike in place.
Lower back still a little jacked, so the 150 deads didnt feel appropriate.
W/U with with back extensions and gms
10 Minute EMOM:
6 reps bench: 135, followed by 3 thrusters @ 65 focusing on core stiffness on the movements
Back work and mobility work
See you on Sunday.
After a week off due to sickness great to be back in and at 6 am too.
Rx 20:07
Gonna blame being sick on slow performance but healthy don’t know how much faster I would be. Didn’t have to break up push ups until last 4 rounds.
@Lightbody – i put $5 in the envelope and put my name on 2 squares. Thanks!
Gotcha Brooke! Thx.
185# clean and jerk
EMOM
15 minutes
felt good all around, got some good video to study as well.. interesting that my biggest issue from watching the video was that I “rode the clean down” a few times instead of catch it in the bottom.. it did feel kind of light so hoping that with heavier weight I get down faster
3×10 bulgarian split squats, chest up
19:08 RX’d. DL’s felt good, but of course the pushups were slow. The real killer on my time here was the transition between the DL’s and the pushups. It takes a lot of heart to go from one unbroken set to the next, but I have to fit many more of those in if I want a better time!
Old Skool video alert: Coach B rocks this WOD at the original CrossFit:

3×8 Incline Bench 135
DT as a Partner WOD (partners alternate rounds for 5 rds each) at 115 lbs. 14:00
for anyone interested in watching the girls tomorrow:
Jason, Brian and I are going to workout in the 8:30 class, head home to shower and then head over to the event. If you are interested in doing that, come to the work out or just shoot me an email.
I remember when the Big 3 (EJ, Lauren and Sandy) did this event back in the early days of CFM. Should be awesome to see their scores compared to back then. I am thinking about wearing an original CFM t-shirt to the event.
I hope all the spectators get an invite to the post-event party!

Should have dropped to 115#, too much deadlift weight.
Wanted to see how 135# felt, and I really wanted the rx.
