[QUOTE=Jeff Kilinski;793444]That is one sexy metcon :notworth:[/QUOTE]
thanks Jeff. I am finding that this climbing is working the heck out of my forearms and grip. As the instructors have told me, once I get the climbing rhythm down, the tendency to muscle up the wall will stop and the legs will do more. Oddly, this sounds very much like what I experienced when I started crossfit and attempted the OLY lifts.

[QUOTE=William Hoogsteden;792966][LEFT]Jim - How did you do those burpees the the medicine balls?[/LEFT][/QUOTE]

The push up part was a little easier, but the main problem was the ball got so sweaty and slippery. Slipperiness was a problem for the whole WOD, actually.

WU: C2/20# WB shots/dips/scapula pushups/pass throughs/dragon flags

Press
10x 45#/10x 45#/10x 45#

[B][COLOR="Red"]F[/COLOR][/B]x 145#

Was in a hurry and probably should have scaled down and returned to #145, but had to get my 13 y/o to the pistol range.

My PR for the press is 150#, so I was somewhat dissappointed that I seem to have lost a little strength since starting the Paleo Challenge on April 24. Then again, it may have been a poor nights sleep.

Kinda sore from yesterday, mostly from the BPs it feels like.

Went out to my hunting lease this AM and schlepped a cart loaded with about 200 pounds 1/2 mile across the field, then hauled salt blocks and 50 pound bags of corn to the bait piles, did some carpentry on my tree stand, etc. Was "on the clock" because I needed to get all the work done in 90 minutes and get home so my wife could go to the doctor's.

Good workout!

Re: Over 50 Crossfitters Sign In
 

My last two WOD's were disappointing, and I have been extremely stressed at work, leaving me mentally and physically exhausted. After talking to Malzone, I decided to take a week off of Crossfit to rest and recover. I'll be back next week.

PS. Turned 48 today. Only two years away from full membership in this list!

John, I have no idea what you're talking about. But it does sound like a lot of carrying stuff, which, in my opinion, qualifies as a productive WOD! :D
