Perception is reality! You only can't do what your mind can't perceive. One of the worst phrases to have in your vocabulary is, "Now, I could never do that."
I need the rules for our throwdown, because I will push myself but I will also be realistic and know that at this point in my life I don't think I can go rx on this one.
But im going all out Jon!
If only I hadn't ripped my hands working kipping pull-ups today...
Again, it can only make me better!
Let's do it!!

This was really tough.... but just over two months ago when I started I don't think I would of been able to do more than 154#, so this is ok. I feel like I could of done somewhere between the 176 and 198, I should of. Let me know your time Jake and Jon on here by 3 and I'll do the burpee pull ups when I come back if you guys beat me. (Which I'm not sure if its fair since I did less weight than I'm sure both you will)
Still need to work on stringing chest to bars together.
Whatever you are talking about on your twitter feed for next Saturday Ricky, I'm in!
Good luck the rest of the day.
50 CTB went pretty good at a few seonds above 4 minutes. C & Js slowed down quite a bit. Got to the 50 hand realease pushups at about the 11 miunte mark. Good workout. If I'm low man on the totem pole for all those who took the challenge today, I'll happily do the 30 burpee pullups next week.
50 CTB: 5:47
10 C&J: 11:13
43 pushups: 15:00
I hate DNF'ing, but on the positive side, CTB is so much improved for me and this was a good test with having to do 50. I did one set of 4, then all 3's or 2's with the last one being a single.
I was surprised that the jerk was harder than I expected. I thought the clean would be harder and it was the opposite. I power cleaned and did split jerk, but I know I need to split much wider than I did. I didn't have any misses, but at a pace of about 2 per minute, I was resting a lot. In hindsight, maybe I could have rested slightly less after each one to allow me to finish this WOD.
Pushups were mostly 3's and 2's until I hit 30 and then started doing singles.
This was tough, but it built my confidence on CTB and heavy cleans/jerks.
Great work 6 a.m.!! Loved seeing Stacie there!!

DNF at 198#. i thought i was on pace to finish, but suddenly looked up at the clock and it said 12:20. Still had 8 c&j to go. Picked up the pace and got 11 cleans (10 jerks). Did my 50 hand-release pullups after the workout.
i'll do the BPUs tomorrow after class.
DNF (D): 20, 77#10, 15
thx jon/ricky for the tips and encouragement!
scaled to 93# with 16 reps of c&j. did 50 kipping pull ups. and was on 22/50 hand rl push ups at 15 min cutoff.
this was no joke! but i liked how once you were done with one movement it was on to the next. worked on split jerks, getting more confidence with those :)
great work today everyone. And to those who went rx'd ~ DAAAAAAAMN! good work!
13 Clean and Jerks @ 198#
50 HRPU
14:52
Tough workout but had a good group pushing the pace. I owe some burpee pull ups on monday. Nice job nooners!
77# clean and jerk. I'm still working on my technique. The weight wasn't bad, but I want to be sure I have the movement going on before adding more weight.
35 hand release. I did sets of 5. It was tough, but I think I'm stronger because of it all!!
For all of those interested in adventure racing...I'm doing the Lincoln Mud Run on August 27, would love to have a CFO running partner or group.
Also Google Spartan Race...UNREAL Adventure races, mental and physical challenges along the way. There is one in Chicago on October 15. I'm trying to find a way to make that happen in my schedule. Talk to me if you are interested!

used 198. I had been avoiding heavy overhead movements because of injuries. Really showed today. I definitely need much improvement in this area.
Tough one, but I don't think burpee pull-ups are due for anyone that showed up and worked today. We should reserve those for workouts everyone can go Rx'd on.
Ill do your share then!
I don't really mind doing the burpee pullups. I'm kind of curious to see how they feel...I haven't done them for at least a year if not two.
Great job 6am!
JChrist
Nonetheless jon still beat me and I will join you on the burpee pullups tomorrow if I see you in the morning class.
16 - 93# clean & jerks. So many things to think about on this move. Need to spend more time slowing down and focusing on the technique. Probably will be on my rest day agenda for awhile.
Did 25 push-ups. Really tried to work on quality rather than quantity.
5:30 was fun yesterday!
I was pissed when I saw this video on the blog because I immediately thought ZachR (or Zack J) was going to hurt himself trying to do a pistol on a KB.
10 198# C&Js
35 HR Pushups
13:16
The C&Js were full squat cleans and split jerks. 198# is the heaviest I've gone since my knee surgery. They felt good but each one felt like a max effort.
