My last time - 28:18 at the beginning of March... Looking forward to taking a nice chip out of that time.
4/25/08 - Mike was over for the workout for Friday and for some reason the looney wanted to do this one instead of Weighted pullups. So we gave it a whirl.
Mike Q - Outstanding time of 31:59 (with the blue band pullup). Although still working a bit on depth, Squats are looking better and better every week and now strength and flexibility allowed Mike to pound these out in just a few short minutes. How much weight have you lost Mike?
My time - 27:34. My times were the following: pullup 9:21, pushup 7:48, Situp 7:56, squat 2:28) This next time I'm going to do some homework ahead of time and figure out a way to improve my time and work smarter. (Instead of hitting failure by rep 50 and 3-5 repping my way to the finish)
21-15-9 reps of:
Clean 135 pounds
Ring dips
Here's a video of annie and greg cranking out 'Elizabeth' from the crossfit main site.
4/19/08 - Completed this bad boy in 15:17. Five minutes less than the last time I tried it in November. Pretty good PR, but I'm just not quite happy with it. I guess thats what I get when I watch the crossfit superstars do it beforehand. Cleans are one of those things I feel like I'm really not doing effeciently. But it was a great workout.
Five rounds for time of:
400 meter run
95 pound Overhead squat, 15 reps

4/16/08 - this was my first time doing it as Rx'd. Time = 23:15. I did press record when I came in although overhead squatting is one of my weak points so if I have time to post the video of it it will be embarassing. One good thing is that the fifth round of Overhead squatting was much easier than the first. It seemed I was getting better at doing it, and better at handling the hefty weight!
Oh, and you learn pretty quickly that if you don't keep your shoulder and arms locked your making it 5 times harder than with them locked. Thats something I hear all the time but I didn't learn it until I actually experienced it.
Five rounds for time of:
Run 400 meters
30 Box jump, 24 inch box
30 Wall ball shots, 20 pound ball

My first time doing this one. Looks like a metabolic conditioning monster.4/11/08 - Man this is a good one. I finished the third round and didn't even want to walk, much less run. The fifth round was pretty bad as well - I was running as quickly as I could and if Jake was still awake he would have been able to lap me!
Clean & Jerk 15-12- and 9 reps
Touch and go at floor only. Even a re-grip off the floor is a foul. No dumping. Use same load for each set. Rest as needed between sets.

This should be a lot of fun. Fran is by far the most popular of the benchmark workouts - possibly because of how much of an impact it can do to you in such a short amount of time. T he last time I did Fran I did it in 5:04. You can see my video on my bodyspace under "my videos."
I'm hoping to improve, which would mean sub-5 minute! Woot!

Today I did Helen for the first time as Rx'd - first time using a real 1.5 'pood' kettlebell. I thought it was going to be easier than using the 50 pound dumbell I used before, but not so. The kettlebell seems to let gravity pull the weight in a different way.
My new Helen time was 10:26 - previous was beginning of january 10:12.
It may not seem like a PR, but I'm going to count it. Like I said, first time with a 1.5 KB, and both in January and today I ran with my garmin to measure distances, and January was .7, and today was .85. (its supposed to be .75) Time to re-measure!
What workout did you do today, and how'd it go?
