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

CrossFit Friday
We constantly prepare for combat - that is our focus and why we push ourselves physically.
However, the enemy always gets a vote and remains unpredictable. We must always be vigilant and adapt to the unknown because you just don't know what's going to happen when you leave the wire.
Meet in front of Arvin at 0530.

Thursday 9/24/09
For time.
4 rounds of:
3 x Muscle up
6 x 3/4 Body weight front squat
9 x 3/4 Body weight overhead (press, jerk, split jerk etc...)
No racking weight! So if you put it down, you will have to clean it back up before doing the squats or overheads. Just a little extra motivation for you from your very own CF programmer.

Rest Days.
Don't forget to come out to the Combined Arms Tailgate immediately after we beat the hell out of Ball State. It will be on Howze Field next to the Foley Center.
On a side note, after doing some research about fitness equipment I found this little gem. Who knew that fitness was so easy. Check it out.
How cool is that! It takes the work out of your workout AND if you can sit you can get fit! Awesome! To hell with WODs folks, I'm getting one of these.

If you have rings bring them.
Compare to 7/28/09.
