CrossFit: 2009/02/28 – Level test fun fest
The last Saturday of each month is Level Testing at CFTO.
We weigh-in, hammer out a CrossFit Total and then a short met-con:
Row 500m
40 squats
30 sit-ups
20 push-ups
10 pull-ups
I scored a 745 in the Total, 240# Back Squat, 145# Shoulder Press and a 360# Deadlift.
My increased flexibility has led to uncertainty with my Back Squat weight, I threw 240# without a problem, so that’s a bit of poor planning on my part. Same thing for the Shoulder Press, I jumped from 145# to 155# and failed. I should have done 150#. I did add 5# to my Deadlift PR, so it wasn’t all a wash.
I hit 4:20 on the met-con. The standards are the highest, and I had to do a few push-ups over due to my chin not hitting the deck.
Oh, and I weighed in at 183.4#, which is a bit high I feel, I’d like to be 170-175#, stupid belly chub.

@cc Sure, let’s set it up. You’ve got the new baby, so you pick the time.

You should put some cigarette burns on the joystick casing, for the authentic 80s-arcade feel. Maybe hire an angry, unshaven guy to stand in your living room changing quarters for bills.

Nice. Good thing you have some spare woods from your kitchen renovation. Care to share some pictures of your machine that's done?
