WOD
50 Strict Pull-ups (no jumping/no kipping)
The amount of reps jump to 55 if you use a purple band, 60 if you use a tan band, 65 for a blue band, and 70 for a green band. You may not use a band if you are able to do at least 7 pull-ups.
The catch (as always). Every time you come down from the bar you must complete 50 sit-ups before attempting pull-ups again.
Post overall time and the total number of sit-ups you had to do to comments.
Ring dips are not easy for guys let alone females. As a matter of fact, I would put my money on most people in big box gyms not being able to accomplish even one correct pushup. Be proud ladies as you guys are probably a lot stronger than most men in those gyms.

It's a girl! Crystal and I found out yesterday that Damian will be receiving a baby sister. We are all excited and wish Crystal a safe and healthy final months of pregnancy.

Joe and I will not be conducting both the 5:30 and 6:30 classes tonight. Kylie, Amanda, and Jon will be filling in for us and we believe they will do a tremendous job. Give them your all as this will be the first time that they handle classes without Joe and I critiquing their every move. Have fun and we'll see everyone on Thursday.
and congrats on the baby girl to crystal, ricky, and damian!
I am missing our gym more and more as I am away longer I miss all of you crazy crossfitters. Hope everyone is doing well and working hard.
Talk to you soon,
BJ Donohoe
I'm looking forward to this, unfortunately I can't make it. Maybe do this one on a rest day. I kinda like the workouts with the punishment incentives involved- time doesn't always motivate, but the threat of additional work (sit-ups) does.
Awesome, a pull-ups only WOD the day after I tear my hand again. Those damn BFK pull-ups are going to be the end of me.
You're too sweet.
Well I hate to break the bad news to Addi, but country names like "reba" are really comin back in style ;)
Secondly - I miss training with you guys when I am in Omaha and hope you all are doing well.
The Challenge!!! My buddy Steve and I do most of Omaha WOD and would like to challenge CrossFit Omaha members to do this WOD weighted! Both of us will be wearing 25lb IBA (body armour) for the workout. Good luck and please let me know how you did.
Take care guys!

Looking forward to coming tonight its been awhile it feels like.

Jim Gill you did awesome today!
I would love to do this, but my shoulder says no. I think I'm going to do some sprints near my house and call it a day.
Thanks Angela.
I broke mine up
15-strict with 1 green and 1 tan
50 situps
12-kiping with 1 green and 1 tan

16-kiping with 1 green and 1 blue
30 situps

No situps was a great driving factor.
Dan was really starting to click on his toward the end as well. Way to go.
Kylie is an animal at pullups!!! Seriously that is some awesome strength you have there :)

I was really happy with what I did and I realized I need to work on sit ups, something I overlook all the time. Well 5:30 and 6:30 tonight was great, thanks for making it really easy by working hard and pushing it. Hope to see everyone one tomorrow and talk to yall later.
Also congratulations Brilz on your UFC win tonight hope to actually get to see the fight some time.
