WOD (courtesy of Catalyst Athletics)
10-8-6-4-2 reps for time of:
Chest to Bar Pull-ups
Box Jumps

Box jump height should be as high as you can handle. Stack as many plates under a box as you think you can successfully jump onto. Tiebreakers, obviously, go to the higher box.

Post box height and time to comments.

  4. Looking forward to seeing a lot of you Crossfitters tomorrow at the Mid America convention center (not sure what room we'll be in, but you should be able to find it!) - hopefully y'all will enjoy it (it does get boring sometimes!) :) I am ready to represent! :)

  6. This was a fun little workout this morning. Having never done really high box jumps or ctb pull-ups, I didn't know what to expect. We had the box up to ~40 inches (two reds, one blue and a yellow under the box and riser). We might have been able to go higher, but aborting a failed box jump isn't as easy and dumping weight. Tip: focus and really commit to the jump.
    Time: 6 something
    Nice job morning crew!

  8. I agree with John, this was a lot of fun. Used 40" box (give or take) and managed to not maim or mangle myself in anyway, and more importantly I was able to all the CTB pullups without dropping down from the bar once - I paused a couple of times to regain my rythm but never let go. My time was 7 something. Nice job morning crew.

  12. I had 2 yellow plates under a 24" box, and CTB pullups. Fun workout this morning, and I did 22 HSPUs. Good job morning crew!

  14. Had fun with this one, the box was around 38-39" not sure of time, need to get better at CTB. There was very evident competition for the highest jump this morning made it fun.

  18. Just to let you guys know, I measured my box height this afternoon and with 4 reds and a green under a 24" box, the measurement was 43 3/4". This means that you guys have to go back and re-measure your box height.

  20. Definitely some high jumps this morning. Almost all the plates were under boxes. I never tried the 36inch boxes at UNO, the last high jump WOD there was on 30inchers, so I was pleased that my group set up 2reds,2yellows for 34.5 inches. I tried the higher ones 3-4 times and got that, but we decided not to raise ours for the WOD. Even though my shoulder hurts, I like pullups so I wasn't going to miss this one. I got CTB a couple of times, need to work on that more. Here it is noon and my shoulder still works so that's good.

    This was a fun one, GREAT JOB 6am.

  22. good stuff. Got up to 41". nice job by the noon crowd--especially my boyz Donohoe, Tim, and Joe.

    Also, Addi, you looked like you were getting some serious air!

  24. This was a great one to come back to. I might like high box jumps as much as I like deadlifts... maybe more, if that's possible.

    CTB pullups felt better than usual, though I had to break them up into sets of 1 or 2 most of the time to keep the height. Used 39 1/2" or so (3 reds and a green) for the workout, but switched out the green for a yellow for the last 2. I had tried the yellow in the warmup, but had myself psyched out - by the end, I was feeling really confident.

    Then decided to see how high I could go - 4 reds was pretty solid (41 3/4"), and I got 4 reds and a green (43 3/4") once with an approach, but couldn't get it a second time.

    I was really impressed with the jumps people were making - when we were at UNO, people rarely ventured to the 36s, let alone into the 40s.

  26. Really, no one is going to make fun of Ricky for saying he measured his box?
    Anyway, I finished in 10 flat. I was on 2 reds, 1 blue and the 22 inch box. I had it on 24, but I got nervous and nearly bit it.
    Good luck Kelli. Can't wait to cheer you on!

  28. No worries Hannah, it's on the list.

    and now...

  30. Got up to 43 1/2 inches last night but did the workout at 41 (4 reds on tops of the 24" box). This was a really fun one, we haven't done super high box jumps in a long time.
