  2. way to smoke this workout, Ang! great work by all at 6am!

    this was the 2nd workout in my life during which i actually looked forward to the burpees because they were so much easier than the other movement!

    inspired by Ang's 2nd ever muscle up, i grabbed the rings to see how high a pullup i could do...and got my first ever STRICT muscle up!

  4. Congrats, Paul! Sad I missed it. Tried to come in at 6, but my keys are being hidden from me, I suspect, so it was a no-go this morning.

  6. Did the bloody leg or black thigh or whatever it's called, 9:12 rx'd. Not cool. Nice job on the muscle ups Paul and Ang, happy birthday to Jen T and Alex and congrats to the Johnson clan!

  12. Thanks, guys--but Ang is the real champ. She destroyed this WOD.

  14. Congrats to the Johnson family! Sorry I couldn't be there this morning with my 6AM peeps, but I have good news. I did great on my PT test! The part I thought I would have issues with was the run and as of last week I was still running roughly a 15 minute mile and a half. I needed 14:24 to be in the good and I finished in 13:47. Granted, still not the greatest time, but considering I've only had a good two and a half months of training in, I'm happy with it! Easily smoked my pushups and situps and I lost an inch and a half on my waist from last year. So I want to thank all the coaches and all my fellow crossfitters that help put a swift kick in my shorts when I feel like quitting during a WOD.
    Not sure if I ever told you folks this, but since I've been in Nebraska, I haven't had a very structured PT program since I'm not in an actual squadron on base. Me and the other 4 active duty folks in my Joint Test group just do our own thing and my own PT wasn't cutting it. It was so bad that in May I found myself not fitting into my Air Force blues. This pissed me off to the point that I needed to find something to get me back in shape. Thank God I found CrossFit Omaha. Thanks to all you guys I'm in better shape now than I've been in years. And I intend on keeping the improvements going. Seeing what the folks who competed in the regional and world games this year did, I intend on pushing myself every day in hopes of being on the Affiliate Cup team next year. And I hope eveyone else does the exact same. See you guys in the morning!

  16. We should stop congratulating Ang on smoking workouts! She does this quite frequently...oh wait...every time! JK Ang, but you really are a freak of nature when it comes to workouts! You fly through them! What is your secret?!?!
  17. Gdawg Says:
  18. CONGRATS ZACH AND FAMILY!!!!

  22. Attention all CFO memebers!! Who wants a pool table?? Jon Baker and I have a pool table in the basement that we want to give away. Call if you are interested 981-0369. I dont have all dimensions now but can get them. The table is free but the hauling out is own your own...it is heavy, but i am sure some of CFO people would help move it.

    Thanks

  30. I did the "tire flip" workout and finished in 4:37. My lungs were burning when finished. After resting a bit, I did 18 doubleunders which is a record for me!! Great job everyone!

  32. 8:02 on the brutal rest day WOD! I do love me some burpees! Tire flips were sweeeet!!!! I preferred the smaller tire to the big boy! But it was fun - hope we can do those more often in metcons!

    But Ricky was right.... you can't breathe on the Ball Clean-Slammers!

    Awesome sweat produced today 4:30!
  33. Mel C Says:
  34. Shakey Leg was correct! Good lord I couldn't get the BCJBS or whatever in a rythm! And I loved doing tire flips for the first time! Dirty...but fun!
  35. BC Says:
  36. Tire flips??? TIRE FLIPS?!? Does this mean someone "found" a tire for the gym? Sweet!!!!!!!!!
  37. Addi Says:
  38. Super-fun team version of Bloody Lung (I prefer the more macabre version of the name, not surprisingly)... Rope climbs actually didn't destroy my legs like I thought they would. Maybe because I can actually use my arms for them now??? I'm not even that mad at Ricky for throwing the win, because that was an exciting finish, and also because... I got a muscle-up! And then another. And then Jordan got one. NIce. Lindsey, you ARE the lucky charm. We need to bring in a mirror so you can watch you, and then you'll get it for sure.
  39. BigD Says:
  40. Tire flips? I missed out on tire flips?! Damnit! If the gym needs some, someone told me the recycle plant down 60th between Q and Harrison has a bunch of HUGE tractor tires and since it's a recylce center they don't charge? Anyone up to check if it's true?
  41. Paula Says:
  42. 9:41- I got the "black lung" and the "shakey legs"!! Tried out the tire flip- fun times- looking forward to future workouts the tires! Good job Jen S. and Crystal on tryin the muscle ups!
  43. Crystal Says:
  44. 8:32. Was on the 1st round on the 3's when time was called. Rested the 2 min & finished. So close! My legs were dying! Great job everyone. Congrats on those who got muscle ups!
  45. Jess Says:

  50. ouch. that really hurt my legs. 10:40. was on the 2nd round of ballcleanjumpingballslams when time was called and rested 2 minutes. there was a moment - think it was the first round of threes when my legs hurt so bad it dropped me to the floor. shaky leg is a very appropriate nickname.
