[I]Dead Lifts & Push Ups. How hard can this be?

Brutal!!

Went to Knee Push Ups on round 4 & stayed there. One of my buddies wrote, "(B)ill, you gotta harness momentum. instead of dropping and releasing the bar each time on the deads, do a controlled drop and use the bounce to go right back into your next lift. no rules against that and if you watch khalipa at the games a few years back you can clearly see him stringing together cleans by doing this.."

Good advice! It took me over 10 min to get the 1st 5 done. Got the last 5 done in around 8+ mins. If I kept consistent, I'd have done better!!

Spent the rest of the hour in Snatch practice.

Perry, my hat is off to you!![/I]

Wow, this was always one of my favorite WODs!! Nice job.
The other one I always liked was deadlifts and pullups - but that one took me WAY longer than DL/pushup!! :p

Re: Over 50 Crossfitters Sign In
 

Hi guys and gals. I know Will, if I don't post here it doesn't count. Mea culpa....but I have been going at it.

Anyone participating in the WODclubopen.com event? Kinda fun.

Here is this week's:


In two minutes do reps of for total pounds moved:
You choose the weight and multiply it by total reps for total score.
1 deadlift
1 clean
1 front squat
1 push press
(back rack)
1 back squat
1 back rack press.
Each round is 6 reps, score is total reps multiplied by the weight(including bar) in pounds.Its a modified bear complex, but all movements can flow:
Start by filming your weights
Deadlift must return to ground. This may be different than a traditional bear complex. Watch the movement standards video.
Power clean can join to squat clean, which can join to press (essentially this becomes a clean to thruster)
Back squat can join to back rack press.
We will be judging that you hit the bottoms of the squats and the tops of the presses.


I chose to go with 75#. Lighter than perhaps I could do but I was hoping to fly through and get an extra round. Well I jogged through. 13 rounds for a total weight of 5850#. Enough to keep me out of the cellar online but not on the first floor...perhaps on the stairs.

Thanks, that pic is from a trip I took to USMCRD Parris Island last January. It was an educator workshop but basically a fantasy camp for the Marine Corps. We got to do everything like sit in a F-18 at the Air Station and shoot M-16s on the range. Awesome time!
