WOD

For Time:
15, 12, 9

Back Squat
Handstand Push-Up

Back Squat load should be a 15 rep max load. If you don't know this number, try 65% of your one rep max as a starting point. You may be stronger, you may not, but it gives you a starting point.

Glad to hear it Steve!

Jack, a great time for 21-15-9!

Jason, I have not seen the video yet. The description sounds similar to our Rope Fran, but with less height and more ascents. I say if its good enough for Boz and Todd, its good for CF Diesel.

Dayum Mueller. should you mention that you did the HSPU in a swimming pool?

What's the theory behind stopping this workout at 9? Why not keep going down in reps? For instance, you could do...15, 12, 9, 6, 3. I've noticed a number of other CrossFit gyms are adding sets to their WOD's. I guess form could breakdown with more reps, but this would only add 9 more to the total. Don't get me wrong, my legs feel very nice right now, but I had the distinct feeling after I finished today's WOD that I could have done a little more. Maybe I should have done more weight and taken a little more time when doing them.

I actually do all of my training in a 50x gravity chamber, while under total sensory deprivation so that I can develop my chi projection techniques while improving my physical conditioning.

Evan said...

Cameron G. - There are WODs with that number scheme. Generally, there loads are lighter.

Heavy Fran -
15-12-9
135# Thrs. & 45# Weighted Pull-Ups

Fran -
21-15-9
95# Thrs. & Pull-Ups

21-18-15-12-9-6-3
WODs Have come up every so often (like Brendan's 75# SDHP/ Push Jerk WOD). 75# = "Moderate Load" in CrossFit terms.

Cameron said...

Interesting...Brendan's 75# SDHP/ Push Jerk WOD looks brutal!

Thanks!
