No problem, feel free to borrow as needed all the wods are either from my affiliate or the ones I've listed with women's names are crossfit benchmarks that are used universally. My affiliate does benchmarks about twice a year each, and I just happen to have hit a batch of them in my early days... lucky me!
As far as your questions, I'm in no way as a point to be envied - I'm weak slow, and a complete newbie! Completing these things is more mental than physical, you may look at the huge number of reps and it just looks overwhelming, but it can be scaled to anyone's level whether that means using a different weight or method, or if you must lower the reps/distance.

RFT means Rounds/Reps for Time. Basically you are going to have two types of workouts, both will be max effort/speed, but they will either be AMRAP (As Many Rounds As Possible) within a set time period, or you can have a set number of rounds you try to complete as fast as possible (RFT).

Jumping pullups are probably not what you are thinking of, It isn't jumping up to grab the bar then pulling up. They are a progression TO band assisted pullups. Basically you go to a dead hang with your knees bent and your toes touching the floor/box, swing forward slightly using your core, then back and push off slightly with with your toes to get yourself over the bar then resist slightlyon the way down. For the high rep pullup WODs alot of people will do as many as they can on the band then switch to jumping, but the deceptively difficult bit about this is that you are doing part of a workout that is meant to be upper body and give your lower body a rest, but because you're still using your legs a bit it doesn't get to rest.

Also, I'm posting the weight/method I used in each of these wods, if you like I can also post the RX (perscribed/standard). For instance today's used a 30lb KB but RX was 35lb for women.

Oct 29:
Forced rest day.

VERY bummed out, today was supposed to be my 4th day at CF this week, but yesterday evening my left wrist started hurting too bad to do much of anything with it. I went to bed mentally arguing with myself over whether or not to go to class in the morning (this after a same day conversation with a trainer about not being overzealous and trying to push through injury), hoping it would feel better after sleep, I just planned on getting up for class and seeing how it felt. Got up at 5, not any better at all, checked out the WOD (which was Isabel, grrr! so mad i missed out on it) and realized there was no way I could sub to make it work... so I gave in and went back to bed.
When I got up for work it was still hurting, but now only 2 hours later its barely sore at all, go figure. Either way, I may not have hit my goal of 4 days, but it has been a solid week, with TWO benchmark workouts completed, and I have Fran to look forward to on Monday.

Re: Bec's WOD Log
 

Nov 12:
50 Deadlifts (83lb)
3 Burpees at the top of every minute
TIME: 5:34 (probably???)


I'm having some genuine anger at the bar this week. As an utter perfectionist, not being good at things makes me crazy, and all my lifts are feeling miserably awful. I may get one thing right on a lift or squat, and everything else goes out the window, then I work to adjust something else on the next one and lose whatever I had right before. On top of that, all previous experience tells me I should be killing myself in the gym to do it and do it and do it till its right... except now everyone gets on me when I'm trying to pound out reps. Letting go of your natural inclinations is hard.
I'm desperately trying to center my mind on the years of work it took me to get good at ballet and archery when I was younger, starting out definitely wasn't this hard, but getting where I wanted to be with those things was just as difficult, I can do it with this stupid barbell.

Squat Cleans - 33lb bar only
Ring Dips - Green Band
Time: 11:47

Still feeling very weak. Admittedly, though the OHS as skill work before the wod did not make doing squat cleans easy. Counting the days to next week, as I'll be off work, I'm in dire need of the extra rest.

10 Rounds
1 Minute: 10 Box Jumps (14"), Max Push Press (rx 65/me 53)

I failed to do Push Presses for the most part they turned into push jerks. I should have tried to do strict presses and they would've turned out as PP :ranting2:

Re: Bec's WOD Log
 

Had a little bit of a crossfit birthday "present". I got to go for my first lift 1RM on DL, and also got my first "RX" workout - though I am not sure it really counts, my trainer said it was so, we'll go with it.

Deadlifts:
4x95
4x115
3x145
2x165
1x195 - 1RM
I probably had another 5-10lbs in me, but my form was falling apart, so it was time to stop.

WOD:
Tabata Box Jump - 20" rx (done as step ups)
1 min rest
Tabata Push Press - 45 lb rx
1 min rest
Tabata KBS - 30lb rx

Total: 60+51+68=179

I slowed down a lot on the Push Presses due to focusing not to Jerk, but even with trying not to I still unintentionally kept doing that quite a few times.

Re: Bec's WOD Log
 

Been out with a cold the past 2 days :( A bit better but still having constant horrible sinus headache.

"Fight Gone Bad"
3RFT, 1 Minute at each station, 1 Minute rest between rounds
Wall Balls - 13lb
SDHP - 45lb
Box Jumps - 20" (done as Step ups)
Push Press - 45lb
Row for Calories

Reps: 76+68+60 = 204

Done as Rx, at least in theory. My wallballs were definitely not regulation, I counted any that reached the bottom of the circle, I'd rather be destroyed doing 13lb inaccurately for now than easily stringing together perfectly accurate throws at 10lbs. My goal was hoping to get over 175, so I did alot better than expected regardless. Next time it will be rx with accurate wall balls and JUMPs on the box!
