Ricky Frausto Filed Under:

WOD

10 rounds for time:
12 Burpees
12 Pullups

There is a 20 minute cutoff to this workout and so with this being said you are allowed to scale the reps to either 10 rounds of 9 each exercise or even 10 rounds of 6 each exercise in order to make the cutoff time. It's a workout more towards completing all ten rounds in less than 20 minutes rather than if you can go unscaled or not.

Post whether you made the cutoff time or not and if so then proceed to post your time as well.



















Our newest LEO (Lincoln PD) to drink the Kool-Aid. She'll mostly attend the late afternoon class because of work but if you happen to see Brytten, introduce yourself and welcome her to the crew. It's good to have you with us Brytten.

  2. wii fit looks pretty cool, but to get my vote, it would need to weight 400 lbs or be tall enough to do a pullup on.

  4. Weird. My cousins kids use the wii fit all the time. I think it's a sad commentary on our society. What happened to good, old-fashioned outdoor activities? Ride a bike. Jump rope. Climb a tree. Seriously...

  6. Kids should be outside playing...I couldn't imagine growing up indoors. To be missing out on pick-up baseball and football, b-ball games of 21, hide & seek and tag? Childhood wouldn't be worth remembering. That is why I love CF or what I like to think of as "adult gym class".

    WOD = DNF - 9 rounds completed + 2 PU's. Great job to those who finished.

  8. today sucked after the handstand negatives yesterday! my shoulders are on fire. i didnt finish but i got done 8 rounds with 12 pu's and 4 burpees on the 9th. if i wouldnt have stopped to get water, i could have finished 9. great job today guys! see you wednesday!
    as for the wii fit, i think its a good idea. kids now spend all their time on video games not outside playing pick up games (as much as i want them to be). so why not make it as healthy as possible. i dig it.

    In rounds 1,2,7 I did all 12 pullups and in all other rounds broke them up into two sets of 6. As for the burpees, I started out doing all 12, then went to two sets of 6 and finished with 1 at a time with about a second of rest in between. For as sore as my quads are from Saturday the burpees were not as bad as I thought they were going to be. Once again, looking forward to that rest day tomorrow.

  12. 19:59 just as I planned. This was really tough and I can't wait to sleep in tomorrow. Actually every minute I'm not burpeeing or pulling I'm going to thoroughly enjoy.

  16. On the days I am too lazy to come in, I usually do kettle bell swings with my wii controller. If you get on YouTube, I have posted videos of my best times.

  18. I finished 10 rounds of 6 and 6 pretty fast. Then Joe had me do 5 more rounds of 3 and 3 to finish out the 20 minutes. My hands are a mess.... I tried to put salt on the open wounds but that hurt like a son of a bitch! How lame is it that I can do 75 burpees in less than 20 minutes but can't put salt on my hand for longer than 15 seconds....

  20. 18:49. Couldn't have done it without Ricky right on my ass for the last 2 rounds. I thought I was going to pass out. I don't know when I have ever wanted to quit so badly. BRUTAL!

  22. Good work Paul. I knew it wouldn't be long before you were back to your old self.
  23. paul Says:
  24. thanks, Zach!

    Ang, I hear you on the salt thing. Except I thought the WOD was more painful than the salt. (and I'm NOT saying the salt didn't hurt.)

  28. Today was a big fat DNF (did not finish)...I got through 7 rounds and 12 burpees and 6 pull ups into round 8 (was attempting to do the unscaled workout)
  29. JimmyG Says:
  30. I'm with you Mel. I was scaled at sets of 9 and 9. I got through 8 rounds before the buzzer rang. This was a tough one after a week off of the wagon. I missed you guys and am really excited to meet all the new cult members

    on an unrelated note...does anyone know the block conversion for sweet peppers? I can't find it in my books.
  31. Melissa B Says:
  32. More importantly...it was great to have Nick and Jimmy back today...we've missed you guys!!!
  33. A Says:
  34. so irritated to have missed this one. it was a good day at work, though. anywho, I hope to do this on the rest day!
    Looks like everyone put a lot into this. I think it's safe to say this is much harder than it appeared in print? :-)

  36. What a great turn out this evening! This is my second class( since the three one on one sessions) and I can't wait to be back tomorrow. I am even having a hard time typing after that workout. I completed the 10 rounds in the time doing 6 burpees and 12 jumping pullups. Great Group tonight!
  37. Steve Says:
  38. 8 1/2 rounds, scaled at 9 and 9. great turn out tonite... i look around, i look around and i see a lot of new faces. which means a lot of you been breaking the first two rules of fight club... whoops, wrong club. anyway, welcome to all the newcomers.
  39. Nick Says:
  40. wow, that was a freaking brutal workout for the first one back!! I finished 9 rounds of 12 and 12 and got 9 burpees into the 10th round. thought i was going to pass out on the drive home haha. GREAT to be back though, really nice to see so many familiar (and new) faces. great work everyone.

  42. WOW...what a group tonight! So great to see lots of new faces - WELCOME!

    The WOD was good for me because it is two things that I really need practice on. Scaled with jumping pull-ups and knee burpees I finished 10 rounds 6/6 in about 13 and did 9 more of 3/3 until the 20 time. Sucky, but again, good for me...

    Nice job to all!

  44. Tonight was great having such a large group to work out with. You can just feed off the energy of everyone else to work that much harder. I loved the WOD today, al though my hands hate me for salting them for the past half hour. I finished in 17:05, scaled to 9 pull-ups and 9 burpees for 10 rounds. I was going to keep going with 3 and 3 but my hands were having none of it.

  46. I DNF I was at 8.5 rounds doing 9*9. I must say I really enjoy doing Burpee's now that Ricky showed me the way I should have been doing them all along!!

    I got a lot of new names for the crossfit list, so be on the look out.

    Great to see so many new and old faces.......what I mean is Nick and Jimbo!! Welcome back.

    See ya!

  48. Way to go 7:30. It was really nice to see so many new faces and old ones too (at least to me since i usually come at 6am).

    Did the scaled at 6 & 6 for the 10rnds. Finished at 18:49 (w/a few "thought i was gonna throw up" breaks in between.

    Way to go Mel on the Butterfly pullups! You rock!

  50. I did 6 pullups and 9 burpees got to round ten and the hands were bleeding, so I finished my last round with 9 burpees/12 jumping pullups and then 9 burpees....

    I couldn't brave the salt last night :( I really need to hit my tequila in the pantry before I try it - - - then "no problem" ;)

    Great to see everyone!!!
