Fran… omg…
Laura:
15 - 12 - 9 reps:
65# Thrusters
Pullups
6:58, hell yes, prescribed weight!
Tyler:
21 - 15 - 9
95# Thrusters
Pullups
6:14, compared to 13:11 last time, I’ll take a 6:57 improvement.
That also knocks off a 2008 Fitness Goal.
Update: So pretty much everything is sore. Lats, triceps, quads, forearms… I’ll be taking today off.
21-15-9 reps, for time of:
- Thruster 95 lbs
- Pull-ups
This is considered the benchmark of the benchmark workouts for CrossFit. The top time for guys is 2:14, and if you get under 3 minutes you’re a freakish mutant in ridiculous shape.
Tonight was my first time as prescribed…. I scored a 13:11. Damn. It was brutal. By the end I was doing a single thruster at a time.
At least there’s room to improve.
A couple of positive notes came out of today. During the warmup I did 4 consecutive muscle-ups. I feel like I could have done more, but Fran was waiting for me. The other good thing was I ripped off the pullups in record time for me, the set of 9 was unbroken, the 15 was a 9 and a 6 and the 21 was an 11 and a 10, so that’s pretty good.
There is a ton of room to grow.
