Got this idea from a workout on CrossFit Boston. It is meant to test you as much mentally as it does physically. This is Black and Gold's version of...

Unbreakable

For time.

20 -10 reps of:

1/2 Body weight push press/jerk
Pull up
Sit up
Double under
Push up
Kettle bell swing (70lb/53lb)

All sets must be unbroken. If you break a set you have to start back at 0. Just to be clear, here is what broken means for each exercise.
Push press/jerk: Putting the bar down.
Pull up: Coming off the bar
Sit up: Standard Army rules
Double under: Either you do all of them in a row or you don't. Sub is 4 regular for 1 DU.
Push up: Standard Army rules
Kettle bell swing: Putting the kettle bell down

  11. I'm confused: is the wod one "set" all the way through? 10 reps a piece?

  12. As I learned this morning, after doing sets of 20 and 19 of all exercises, this WOD is only one set of 20 and one set of 10 of each. I mistakenly thought I was supposed to do 20, 19, 18, 17... which would have taken half of the day.

    With the extra work, which makes me that much stronger...8:10.

  13. 9:19...I hate double unders. Must have been stuck on the 10 reps of DU for 3+ minutes. Got to 8 3 or 4 times and missed. HUGE GOAT for me!

  15. B&G in Chi-town!!
    I was directed by NM not to get fat while on leave....so I found the local community center this morning and introduced functional fitness.

    Like Mac, I got to 19 PP and realized that I'm a big idiot. Going into the workout thinking I had to progressively step down messed with my head big time. The intensity was not there thinking I had to do 165 reps of each.

    15:10
    BW - 195#
    PP - 100#
    Pull-up - had to dead hang so unbreakable was impossible after PP
    DU - subbed 24" box jumps
    KB - 55#

    Need to redo this workout when I get back.

  16. 5:41 w/85 lb PJ (BW=170)...also had feet anchored for the SUs.

    A bunch of great efforts out there this AM...lot of people sticking with it even though they had to work through broken sets repeated times...great work.

  17. 9:05
    BW 160: PJ: 85
    completed 100 singles first iteration.
    completed 10 2x second round.

    Going into the workout, I thought I would do "something extra" after this workout. I had no such thoughts at completion. Great workout.

  18. 9:25

    I used 90 lbs for PP (BW = 180)

    Managed to get through all of them except the jump rope without breaking sets. I went straight to the sub (4:1) and got to about 25 on the first time through before starting over again.

    I also screwed up and did my second set of push-ups after my KBS because I forgot about them initially.

    Somehow got the double unders without wasting too much time. I too would like J-Whips skills.
