Re: Over 50 CrossFitters Sign In

My question exactly...what is a PFSS? a something something snatch squat?
No PT this weekend...we went to the Division Ball. I got to wear my dress mess and pretend to be a soldier again...also took a cheat day from the Zone and drank beer like it was my job. Even had some birthday cake. Anyway today I did a CFWU and a WOD I made up:

AMRAP in 20 minutes of:
5 elevated push ups (feet elevated 24 inches on a bleacher seat)
10 #20 wall ball shot
15 30in box jump

and managed 8 full rounds +5 push ups, 10 wall ball shots and 6 box jumps

then I did some light deadlifts:
#95x5, #115x5, #135x5, #155x5 and #175x5

now I'm trying to keep my 4 year old from mushing his fingers in the office paper shredder...gotta go!

[I][B]090427 MONDAY

Warm-up: Versa-climber: [/B]10:00 / 70 - 80 SPM / 10" to 12" steps. Forgot how this thing can kick one's butt!
[B]CFWU X 2. [/B]Took push-ups to 20 reps.

[B]WOD: From the Main Page:
5 Rounds for time of:
21 reps SDLHP 95# / [COLOR=Navy](65#) [/COLOR][/B][B]
21 Ring Dips / [COLOR=Navy](21 Push-ups) [/COLOR][/B][COLOR=Black][subbed the push-ups due to continued bursitis in R/shoulder. No rings either....yet].[/COLOR][B]
TIME = 11:56
[/B]I'm glad I scaled this one! I think I could have managed the 95# SDLHPS, but I would have had to break up the reps much more and lost a lot of time and power output. 65# allowed me to keep the intensity up.....as it was, only the first round was unbroken on the SDLHPs and push-ups. It felt good just to get through this one - - I have definitely lost some of my endurance!

[B]Jump Rope:
2:00 total - got 1 DU. [/B]More work needed on these!

[B]Pull-ups:
10 dead hang
10 kipped
[/B]I was fried from the WOD.....called it good after this.[/I]

Nice workout, Scott! Hey, the GTG beer work is an occasional necessity, is it not? Besides, it's close to Zone/Paleo (protein and carbs in it.....:D).
