I got two friend requests on Facebook. That’s kind of sad….

Emma once again you disappoint and don’t show up when you said you would. And FYI- Sean and I were hungover today and we still showed up.

8:36 (I think) scaled to #135
This was my first Saturday WOD. I usually take the weekends off, but I’m getting more serious about a 3 on 1 off routine. It was awesome to see everyone fresh and ready to go this morning. It’s a big difference from weekday evenings.
I was scared of this WOD. More scared of the Burpees though. I scaled the weight because I wanted to try to go fast on the burpees, but now I wish I’d have gone RX’d even if it meant going slower.
Great job today guys!!

One more thing, I’m still waiting for our “Fran” video. It’s after the New Year and I’ve still yet to see her posted.

10 front squats (45 lbs)
10 burpees
5.5 rounds in 15 minutes

WHERE ARE YOU WATCHING FOOTBALL THIS WEEKEND NEDA?!?!?!? AND WHEN WILL YOU BE THERE TOMORROW?!?!?
January 10th, 2009 on 1:37 pm
Soooooo, you could have timed me on this with a sundial. I don’t remember my time. 11 something? 12 something? I was last, regardless of the time.
I suck at overhead pressing, so this will be a serious focus of mine for the next several months. It’s unacceptable that I do 50 reps of 75lb push-press in a minute when I do Fight Gone Bad but I can’t do 25 reps of 155lb push jerk in under 10 minutes with this workout. Lame!
Great job to everyone else. This is a great example of where being stronger is the key to your fast time. You can have the best metcon in the world and get CRUSHED by the weight if you’re not strong enough.
But I’m sticking to my guns, ready to come in last place every day if it means I’m improving on my weaknesses. This is the 3rd time in a week I have done 155lb clean/clean and jerk/jerks and I’m sticking to it!
January 10th, 2009 on 1:37 pm
And by “sad” I meant lame that I could only get two people (however great they may be!) to friend me. But no worries….got four more, I feel a little better
January 10th, 2009 on 1:41 pm
all the help that is

Nice work to everyone today. And Aaron’s post highlights the fact that CrossFit is great because it has something to humble everyone.

Emma, you always go to the early one and stay for the free one! Since when did you start switching it around? I’m too tired and hungover tonight to go anywhere to watch football. Plus, I’m super nerd and have work to do so I’m currently doing it on a Saturday night in front of the TV.
Regarding tomorrw, I don’t know what time I will be going to PCF b/c I don’t know what the WOD is yet. Obviously you know why I sometimes don’t go b/c you always sell me out. Also, I probably won’t be going anywhere to watch the games, again b/c I have to do work.
And if I had a friendster profile, then I’d totally friend request you but my employers advise against it.
REMINDER/REQUEST: Brian and Siddharth, can we get a pic of Sean up on the PCF site tomorrow? I’m sure that it would really make his bday.
January 10th, 2009 on 7:30 pm
isn’t Freddy’s Revenge 185#?
January 10th, 2009 on 8:15 pm
I believe 185# was the weight used for that workout
January 10th, 2009 on 8:40 pm
135# push jerk (actually more like push press but I got it done)
6:58
Also, thanks for the tips and suggestions Dan even though I wasnt able to use them or apply them during the workout
January 11th, 2009 on 8:55 am
Friendster Neda? Really???
January 11th, 2009 on 10:03 am
Yeah, they advise against friendster and myspace which is just another way of saying don’t do it and in the orientation manual, there is a lot of info on “maintaining the integrity of the firm.” Also, I don’t really like the voyeauristic aspect of friendster and myspace.
January 11th, 2009 on 10:20 am
As rx’d: 5 rounds
5 push jerk (105#)
10 burpees
something like 10:30. Man, I suck at burpees almost as much as I suck at double unders….but not quite. And 105# is HEAVY. Big thanks to Tess for standing over me and encouraging me to get moving every time I stopped. HUGE help.
