Post time to comments.
This is a video of Jim during his third round of FGB. It is a wonderful highlight of Jim. Man is this guy tough as nails. If only I was half the man, father, husband, and competitor that you are. It's always a good day when Jim's in the gym.
If you would like a glimpse into Jim's world, he has a personal blog that is amazing. Take a look and be sure to let him know what you think. Big Fish's World
And you can't go wrong with Johnny Cash and Trent Reznor.
I am going to attempt to do Angie tomorrow morning elsewhere, otherwise it will be a rest day for me :(
Side note, while I was there I was stopped and asked if I do Crossfit, it must have been my fantastic form and physic :) Anyway this guys name was Phil and he is a teacher at Concordia High, he and Kylie go at 5 am to do the WOD's, he is also going to get certified, dont remember where. So my point is CROSSFIT IS EVERYWHERE and I think it is great. Maybe Phil will make it our gym sometime.
Have a great day, see you tomorrow!
I had about 13 minutes left to finish the workout after my pullups. I didn't make the 25 min cutoff. My time was 28:21 - I finished the abs/squats without taking a break.
I was disappointed to not have finished in 25 mins, but I made some errors in taking too long from the start. However, just over six months ago I could not do one kipping pullup and my pushup form was AWFUL and I could do about 30 pushups at best in a workout. So I should be happy overall, and hopefully this is just the beginning of a much improved fitness journey :)
And Joe told me my time since this was a big benchmark workout that I need to record. . .
next time Greg better watch out - I am coming for his time ;)
21:23 rxd....
ripped my hands in 4 places....it looked like a horror movie by the end of the wod....caused me to rest way too long during the pull-ups and push-ups....& OMG the peroxide and salt hurt sooo bad I was close to cryin like a little girl...
Great job as always 6am!!!
ps- Reba you can shoot for a way better time then mine....keep up the good discipline & you'll be smokin me in no time!!!
I was worried about this one. And I ripped my hand (left) with 25-30 pull-ups left. I still hate push-ups!
Happy birthday Circo!
Good job Jim!
I'm scared of "Angie" but see you at 5:30 anyways!
Angie looked pretty tough--good job with it Jeff and Zack. Zack, so cool that you managed to do a one-armed version. Now that is hard core.
I did 3 rds:
20 DLs (175#)
15 GH situps
20 walking lunges (25# DBs)
15 back extensions
12:25
9:32 for 25x on each
...maybe I can do something about the fat and weak ;)
And by the way, to all of you Hand Bleeders:
I aspire to someday be in your sacred clan.

25:30 - 50 of each, 2 rounds. Pullups slowed me down a lot more than I expected. Kipped the first 50, used tan and purple bands to kip the second 50. Tan on first 50 pushups, then tan and purple for the second. Situps and squats were way better than I expected. Didn't stop on the second 50 squats.
I'd say I'm surprised Josh hasn't posted yet, but a little birdie told me I beat him, so now I know why...
