This is a great WOD to get better at climbing the rope. If you are not great at it, that shouldNOT prevent you from coming. Instead, that should be the reason you climb out of bed and roll in at 0530.

CrossFit Friday on a Thursday
Team, due to our modified schedule and early start on Friday, we will be doing our CrossFit Friday WOD on Thursday. Wanna see what it is? Drum roll please....
"G.I. Jane"
100 burpee pull-ups for time
Ideally the pull-up bar is 1' above your reach when you stand with your arms extended overhead. The idea is that you get a good jump and a full pull-up rather than grabbing the bad and doing a jumping pull-up.

Two things before the WOD....
First, the PX is restocked with some Bally jump ropes so get them while you can. Your double unders will improve if you use your own rope and use it consistently.
Second, if you are coming for the morning crew, please get there at 0530, help get the room straight and start to warm up so we can get to the WOD.
Now the WOD...
AMRAP 20
5 handstand push-ups
10 kettlebell swings (53/35)
20 double unders

Compare to 8/10/10.
If you do not have a jump rope, I strongly encourage you to purchase one. Until you get one, you can substitute tuck jumps for double unders.
If you have a jump rope but are unable to do double unders, you can substitute 4 single unders for each double under.
Here is what it looks like with an elite athlete...

Rest day. Get a few extra minutes of sleep after the Superbowl and get ready to get after it on Tuesday.
Sunday, 02/06/11
In an effort to support viewing of the Superbowl and sleep we are NOT going to have a 0530 crew on Monday morning and we will not be posting a WOD for Monday. Instead, we are posting a Superbowl WOD that you can do while you watch the big game.
Step 1:
Pick your team. It doesn't matter who your favorite team is, just pick your team for the game. Once you pic your team, you have to stick with them for the entire game.
Step 2:
Do the following exercises at the following times...
Every time your team scores a touchdown: 50 air squats
Every time your team scores a field goal: 20 push-ups
Every time the other team scores a touchdown: 25 burpees
Every time the other team scores a field goal: 15 tuck jumps
At the end of each quarter: 20 chair dips
At halftime: Tabata squats followed by tabata sit-ups
At the end of the game: Sleep
Penalties:
Every time your team get a penalty: complain
Every time the other team gets a penalty: cheer
Every time you crack open a beer or soda: 20 sit-ups
Post results to comments and enjoy Monday morning off...

Five rounds for time:
Run up stairway to heaven (4th floor) and back
10 Kettlebell swings (53/35)
10 Handstand Push-ups
If you are not able to do the WOD in Arvin, substitute 30 box jumps per run.
Compare to 9/16/09.
There is a fair chance that Arvin will be closed again in the morning due to the weather inbound tonight. I recommend checking here before heading to the gym. If you can't link up with the 0530 crew, feel free to coordinate with people in the comments to link up. This one will be more fun if you have somebody to chase!
