[QUOTE=John Scott Rezendes;720335][B]1-6-10[/B]
WU: C2, dips, OHS, KB swings

WOD: AMRAP in 20 min of:
3 x #225 DL
6 x Ring push ups
9 x Abmat butterfly situps

Got 15 rounds plus 3 DL. The situps began to wear on me and the ring push ups were surprisingly easy. Looking forward to a rest day.[/QUOTE]

OK, I'm in— doing this tomorrow. Will do 225 DLs as Rx'ed. Gotta feeling 15 is about where I'm gonna top out. We'll see.

[B]Jim[/B]— what is Rx'ed for this: GHD's or straight situps?

Sounds like your back is healed. That's a lot of DLs for time. If it weren't 100%, I think you'd know it after that.

Saturday

We did some good group stretching since we didn't have any strength work programed.

WOD 3 rounds for time

50 Wall balls
25 pullups

17:35

I was about 10 wall balls behind a guy in the box in his mid forties. I thought "I'll catch him on the pullups". We were neck and neck, I thought he had a bunch to go when he finished. Beat me by 3 sec. Good fun.

Sunday 1/10/10:

WARMUP:
30 flutter kicks (4 count)
20 pushups
10 pullups
10 OHS (with PVC)

STRENGTH:
OHS
3x45
3x65
3x80
3x95
3x105 (FAIL/shoulders couldn't stabilize weight as I went into squat))
3x95

WOD (Jim Cordes Special):

AMRAP in 20 minutes
3x 225 DL
6x Ring Pushups
9x Sit Ups

12 rounds as Rx'ed. Pretty brutal.

Thought I'd make 15, No way. The deads seemed relatively easy at 225, but that's still a lot of work and I think that gassed me every round, so by the time I'd get to the situps (which should have been the easiest part), I was really huffing and puffing and needing little 3-5 second breaks every few reps.

Hey [B]Jim[/B], 'zat one got a name? It's a nice benchmark WOD, IMO.

"The Claw"?

No name, I got it from the coaches at Crossfit Pacific Coast, the box where I train.

I did regular sit-ups, others did GHD sit-ups. Regular sit-ups were Rx'd.

The Claw (long story, just go with it) :)
