The 2009 Games Event #5 Couplet
3rounds for time:
30wallballs to a 10.5' target
30 Hang Squat Snatch that starts below the knee
20min time cap
I did not make the cap. I was attempting to finish the third round and achieved 4HSS before the 20min had expired. Great WOD. I am not that great at the snatch and traveling below the knee on each rep takes a toll on your back. The wallball target was higher than I was used to and I made sure each rep was at the target. I also completed the wallballs in a different spot this time around. Needless to say it was different than what I am used to.

It's Been Awhile
It has been awhile since I have posted, been busy with work and family. Here is what has been accomplished
Thursday 02/12/09
For time:
45 Double-unders
135 pound Squat clean, 45 reps
45 Ring Dips
45 Double-unders
22:07 I had to scale the weight for the cleans down to 115. The cleans are what hurt my back last time but this time I felt good better form and with the work I put in for the active hip movement I think it helped greatly.

Three rounds, 21-15- and 9 reps, for time of:
95 pound Thruster
Pull-ups
8:31 I was pumped for and after this WOD. This WOD is the THE WOD of CrossFit or so it seems. Every one talks about their Fran time. Well, my first Fran time was 19:31 This is 11min better!!!! I tried my best to not break up the thrusters, however, the workload is outstanding and for me is still difficult.
Yesterday
3 rounds for time of:
Row 500 meters
21 Burpees
Run 400 meters
20:32 This was the first time I have really rowed for a WOD. I had played around witht he technique but had never really rowed for time. I think the burpees are what got me had to break them up the last round and the second round was slower than the first as I was trying not to break them up. All in all good WOD. Rowing was more exhausting than I thought.
Squat clean 1-1-1-1-1-1-1 reps
95, 115, 135, 145, 135, 135, 135
This is the exercise that hurt my back a few WODs ago, so I was apprehensive about go heavy. I am actually surprised with the weight as it was my goal (BW or higher), however, with the 145 I felt my back start to feel like it did last WOD when it became sore. I was happy that I hit my goal and I did not want to spend the rest of the week missing WODs and not being able to move if I hurt my back again. My mechanics and my strength are slowly coming I just need to be patient and bring the intensity every day.
