hmm......this ones too easy, so im not even gonna say anything.

Okay, and I won't mention that if you're doing that many reps, your weight is too low.

LOL, I was hoping you wouldn't go to the gym and try to get twice as much weight, ha ha.

[treelizard]

What's that?

Tell me how many situps and pushups you can do in one minute, with someone else counting. No cheating.

[7r14ngL3Ch0k3]

Ok, i just did about 70 pushups in a minute. I dont feel like doing the sit ups but when i did the sit up test in gym i did about 60. Im not fat or anything if that's what youre trying to imply. Here's my wrestling pics from winter's season. Dont make fun.

August 9
Seven 30# assist pullups (instead of my usual 40-50#) with 1-3 minutes rest in between, failed on 8+9 so followed up with three jumping pullups.

August 10
3 rounds 500m row and 15 thrusters, 35#, in 15:05

August 11 rounds of cleans and dips
21-15-9 squat cleans, 35#, butt to ankles (didn't clean all on the first round)

Dips, 21 improvised on L-sit machine for round 1 (Grav was taken), 30 and 18 assisted dips (50#) for rounds 2 and 3.

Aug 12--MMA, punching work.

Aug 13--overhead squats
3X 35-40-40-50-50-60(f)-50

Didn't finish that 6th set. I should've known better than to try 60 since my max squat weight according to the performance standards posted on the crossfit site on the 8th is 62. However, I managed to dump the bar quite nicely.

50/40/30/20/10 back extensions and situps (on the glute/ham developer), 21:20.

Ouch.

[treelizard]

Butterfly situps during my warmup, these KICK ASS, my abs are totally smoked.

3 rounds:
sumo deadlift high pulls (X 15), 25#
assisted pullups (X 15), 40# assist, grip varied btw. military and parallel bar grip
30-second L-sit

Tree, what else are you doing besides Crossfit? Any regular excersize such as martial arts, sports etc? How many hours/week or whatever do you sweat besides Crossfit? In other words, is it most of your excerize or would a person have to lighten the WOD's quite a lot in order to maintain other stuff?

I'm teaching Muay Thai and BJJ three times a week (moderate workout) and starting to train for a 10k in the fall (three-four days a week running) plus other stuff here and there. The Crossfit stuff looks like a cool base regime, but I also tend to get in over my head and crash myself. Any thoughts?

Besides, I want to try and join the cheer-club you guys have going here.

I do MMA once a week for about an hour and a half, and I also do some cycling (moderate) maybe a couple miles a day and some yoga and some cardio kickboxing (couple times a month) and will be starting FMA again soon (non-strenuous). I throw in extra rest days or lighten the load. You kind of have to modify it if you do a lot of other work.

You could ask on their message boards though, everyone there is much much MUCH more knowledgeable and experienced in crosstraining, etc. than I am.
