Five Rounds of Five.
I did my hand-stand push-ups different today. My body was vertical like normal, but my legs were further back on a box instead of the wall. This was more difficult than the way I usually do them--like a push-up with my feet elevated.
Time: 11.11

5x--800m run, 3 rope climbs, 25 regular push-ups
This was (in my opinion) the toughest crossfit workout I've ever done! I finished in 47:07 and kept trying to encourage myself the whole time thinking...I am not sawing off my arm right now. Yesterday, I watched the Today Show interview Jon Metz after he got his arm stuck in his furnace.
Overhead walking lunges, Burpees
Five rounds for time of:
45 pound barbell Overhead walking lunges, 50 feet (subbed with the training bar, 35lbs)
21 Burpees
Let trailing knee gently kiss the ground on each lunge.
Time - 14:48
Slow on the first two. They kind of seemed like a warm-up. Went much faster on the last three. Need to start faster next time.

21-15-9 reps of:
Clean 135 pounds
Ring dips
Time: 6:22
Used a 45lb bar and went with power cleans. Ring dips were assisted with toes on a box like an incline bench would be set up to help with pull-ups.

Deadlift Progression of Five Sets
Thanks to my crossfit friends for pushing me I am becoming more focused on my workout times and lifts! Today, I thought I was going to start out my deadlifts with 75-85-95. But, after being honest with myself (and Daniel) I used those sets of 5 as warm-up and started at 105, instead. I felt much more confident after lifting 145lbs. for my final set and I'm ready to see what my max will be! And, by the way, I need to repeat yesterday's workout after watching Daniel. I could have pushed myself harder on the body squats. I'm getting there.
Five sets of 105-115-125-135-145

Front Squats, Pull-ups & Tuck Jumps
5 rounds + 4 front squats in 12 min.
I did assisted pull-ups with Daniel as my partner and focused on using my upper body.
I used 75 lbs. for front squats.
I did not have a jump rope so I did 20 tuck jumps in a row each round.

South Central Regional Event 4
10 Muscle-ups (modified)
15 Handstand push-ups (modified)
45 pound Squat clean, 20 reps
Run 550 meters
Time: 6:40
This workout felt strange to me. I should have done more muscle-ups on the rings, but I didn't know what to expect for the first time. I could have done 5 more hand-stand push-ups. The weight for squat cleans was just right for me. I will try this one again later.

"Randy"
75 pound Power snatch, 75 reps for time.
Used the curl bar which is about 25lbs.
Time 4:24
Did this one back in July of 09 with the training bar and which probably weighs about 35lbs and time was 9:04. The weight was a little less but still cut the time in less than half. Main difference is exploding up with the weight instead of just lifting it.
