GHD Sit-ups, Hip/Back Extensions, Thrusters and Pull-Ups 08/11/08

Abbreviated CF Warmup (Retrospectively brilliant, by the way). The worst CrossFit WOD I’ve experienced by far:

For time:
10 GHD Sit-ups (Video on what these are)
10 Hip & Back Extensions (Video on what these are)
95 pound Thrusters, 30 reps (Scaled to 65 pounds for me)
50 Pull-ups

30 GHD Sit-ups
30 Hip & Back Extensions
95 pound Thrusters, 20 reps (Scaled to 65 pounds for me)
35 Pull-ups

50 GHD Sit-ups
50 Hip & Back Extensions
95 pound Thrusters, 10 reps (Scaled to 65 pounds for me)
20 Pull-ups

Time: 32:52

It’s been about 30 minutes since I completed and I still feel lightheaded. I even questioned if I should be driving home after. Just awful.

Charlie rocked it out in 20:55 (@ 95 lb Thrusters) and he looked to feel about as bad as me while still completing it in two-thirds the time. Yeah, Charlie is also about to turn 50. Of course, he was Mr. Georgia or something once upon a time. Yeah, I’m just making excuses.

Both Charlie and Josh almost looked about ready yak during the WOD. It was that bad.

Glad it’s over with.

My time: 32:52

Yeah, that WOD was ridiculous. I wish I would have scaled it back to 65Lbs as well. Needless to say, after you left I decided to do the "Dirty 30" workout that some other people were doing. It was a horrible decision.

Three Rounds
30, 45-lb thrusters,
30, 24kg Kettlebell Swings
30, Ab-Mat Sit ups

That put me at 120 Thrusters, 130 Sit-ups, 70 pull ups, 40 Back Extensions, and 30 KB swings...for the day. I felt like death.

You're crazy for doing the dirty 30 after that mess of a workout. "Horrible decision" is right!

This sub-blog captures my daily workouts (if any). It was created in July and has been maintained fairly religiously since August 2008. Its purpose is to serve as a record of activity and a reminder to stay active. Theoretically, it will serve as a record of what "works." Questions or comments, just let know. Navigating it for specific workout ideas is best accomplished using the tag cloud.
