Today is the start of the first ECROSSFIT challenge! 

All Ecrossfit members will go full bore at todays workout.  One month from now, the most improved in this workout will win a badge for their profile.  In addition to this badge, the winner will also know that they improved the most out of all of us during the month of November.  There is also a badge for 2nd and 3rd place, but not as cool.

Rules:

1.  No Sandbagging on your first go round.  Full bore.
2.  If you use a rubberband to scale these pullups at the beginning of the month, you will use the same rubberband at the end, regardless of whether you upgraded.

And now, here is the workout:

With a continuously running clock do one pull-up the first minute, two pull-ups the second minute, three pull-ups the third minute... continuing as long as you are able.

Use as many sets each minute as needed.

Quick Explanation of the Crossfit Games: (Click here for the official CFG site)

Every year, in Aromas California, the Crossfit Games are held.  A mix of 3-4 workouts are given with rules and guidelines, each 'randomly' chosen.  A crossfitter will be able to perform better at any random task except for those that specialize in that one thing, so it would make sense that the top crossfitter will have the best combined time of all the workouts at the Crossfit Games.

The great thing about the games are the workouts are revealed in real time (at home) so we can compete against the top dogs and see how our times measure up.  This year, I am the only one in Eugene participating.  Start training so next year you can do it!

Today the final event was revealed: (see yesterday's entry on how I did on the first 3 events)

155 pound Squat Clean and Jerk, 30 reps

The barbell goes from ground to overhead, passing through a front squat in which the crease of the hip passes below the height of the kneecap. The finish position is with the arms, hips and knees fully extended, arms overhead, with at least a portion of the ear visible in front of the arm. Dropping the barbell is acceptable.

Keep in mind that this is after a grueling day yesterday. 

Here's of video of me doing the workout.  Final Time: 9:44



And so my results were the following:

Workout 1 - 6:28 - 6:50AM Fran
Workout 2 - 6:28 - 12:30PM - DL&Burpees
Workout 3 - 3:44 - 4:50 - 750 meters up a steep hill
Workout 4 - 9:44 - Day 2 - 30 Squat Clean and Jerk

Day 1 Total - 16:40
Day 2 Total - 9:44

Total Time: 26:24

How did I measure up?
26:24 puts me at 82nd out of 196 competitors.
Not bad!  Looking forward to next year!

With a continuously running clock do one pull-up the first minute, two pull-ups the second minute, three pull-ups the third minute... continuing as long as you are able.

Use as many sets each minute as needed.

Scale back to rubber bands as needed.  Go to a band where you can get at least 10 rounds in.

4/4/08 - A new PR for me!  14 rounds + 11 pullups for me today, up from 10+2 from december.  It may not seem like much of an improvement on paper, but thats 70 more pullups - I'm happy about it!

New times coming soon.
If you're new, email me so we can meet 1 on 1.
Call or email me if you have any questions.

Warning

Don't try Eugene Crossfit if you want to keep the drudgery in your workouts. There are plenty of workout plans that deliver little results, are boring, and don't really have a goal in mind.

Crossfit is very bothersome for people who like workouts like these.

Crossfit will change the way you think about your workouts, and by doing that you see amazing results. You immediatly learn to love to workout, to push your body, to try new things. The program you recieve here will make you fitter faster than anything you can imagine. Every client that has given it a month will testify.

You don't have to be an athlete to come. Heck, you can be in the worst shape of your life, I scale you back and ramp it up at a steady and safe pace. You'll have the results that you never thought possible in no time. And once you get there, you'll be thirsty for more. (instead of yo-yoing)

Eugene Crossfit is NOT a gym. It is a fitness school. In time, along with getting fit, you will learn technique on everything, how to apply intensity, the aspects of fitness, how and what to eat, how to coach your fellow mates, recovery, motivation, virtuosity, flexibility and much more.

Give me a call or shoot me an email for your free 1 on 1 introductory session. Lets get started now.
