Lots of Reps

Ricky Frausto Filed Under:

Today we take part in a wonderful fundraiser that raises money for the purchase of cooling vests for our service men and women manning the front lines in Afghanistan and Iraq. It was started by two parents who lost their son on May 1st, 2004. Trevor Win'E was injured on April 30th by IED and lost his life sustained by those injuries on the first of May. He loved being a soldier and today we will honor him and all those that have lost their lives while fighting for our country. In his honor we have raised enough money for the purchase of at least 10 cooling vests (5 registered teams, enough money donated to match the registered teams, about $2000 total)

We have 7 teams competing this morning. Three teams will begin at 9 AM while the next three will begin immediately following the first three's completion of pullups. We'll follow in this matter until the last team is done. I hope to have some extra people for counting reps but if not we need to be organized enough to write down completed reps so that no one does more work than they have to. I will have a first aid kit available for torn up hands but hopefully we'll have very little of that. Good luck to everyone competing.


WOD
In teams of 4, two of the members must be working to accumulate the required reps at all times. All pullups must be completed before moving on to pushups and so forth.
300 Pullups
400 Pushups
500 Situps
600 Air Squats

You may scale the movements if necessary, such as jumping or band-assisted pullups and/or on your knees or band-assisted pushups.

Post time to comments.


In other news, I would like to wish my son, Damian, a wonderful 4th birthday today. He is the light of my life and I hope he has an awesome day.

26. Way to go everybody. Everyone was putting in a really impressive effort. And like Paul said... whenever I'm tempted to slack off, I just look around for inspiration. Hats off to Kylie and Brian for trying this on your own. And above all, a great way to celebrate the true meaning of Memorial Day.

28. This is the most fun I've had on a Monday morning ever. Makayla sent me some pictures that she took and I have already put them on our Flickr page for everyone's viewing. If you didn't know we had a Flickr page you do know. It contains pictures from many of the things we do, both legal and illegal. See you guys on Tuesday (be sure to check for any class time changes for this week and from here on out)
