CF workout "Pheezy" is a fucking doozy.

3 rounds for time of 5 165lb front squat, 18 pull ups, 5 225lb dead lifts, 18 toes to bar, 5 165lb push jerk, 18 hand release push ups. I had to scale the front squats and push jerks to 145, almost had an accident with 165.

Took me 35:49. I was going slow....

 

Wow, that sounds grueling! I did Crossfit for awhile with a work friend and got pretty burnt out! Prob needed to scale back and not always try to kill it! Def have appreciation for those athletes though! It's cool to actually see it come mainstream a little as this was like 5 years ago and nobody knew what it was it seemed!

 

Someone take this book off my hands!

CF definitely isn't for everyone. If you're looking to get back into it and looking for scaled workouts, try crossfitbrandx.com, look under the forums section.

 

Custom workout today: As many rounds as possible in 20 min of 5 pull ups, 10 dips and 15 burpee's. I came out the other end with 7 rounds....and maximum heart rate achieved was 191.

 

Damn college and work have kept me out of the gym. Someone motivate me to go tonight

 

Workout tonight and you can have a few beers tomorrow.

 

That would be a fantastic idea if i could legally drink

I'm going to go as soon as my laundry is done

That analogy made me feel shitty about my life lol

 

my thoughts exactly. you have to want it, otherwise no matter how hard somebody else is pushing you... you'll never give it 100% effort

"I was wounded in Afghanistan on Aug 16, 2011. I lost my left leg below the knee, broke my right leg, broken ribs, sustained a lot of frag to my legs, and the list goes on. Its been less then 7 months since my injury and here I am completing 12.3."

^^^ Fuck Yea!!!!

 

That's amazing, hats off to you bro. Guys don't understand, me included, how hard it can be to relearn how to do day to day things let alone the drive to do that! ^ got a few buddies relearning to walk now, would you mind if i text them that pic? Would be motivational for fellow service members

 

that's not me.

i took that from the crossfit website and posted it here because it's an amazing display of determination

sorry for the confusion. post edited

 

Haha wow, my bad. . . Derp

 

It's generally not a good idea to eat anything, say a protein bar for example, right before going and working out, correct?
