12:18 Woop! (includes time running from in my apt, down 3 flights to go outside to do ropes and 400m).
Mods: 30# DL, 4# wall ball (GOTTA go get a real ball to do these…), 12" box (1" higher than I've been doing, but I need to get a box or a step!) Run was a bit more than 400m, down then up hill.
Hey! I just found your site and it is exactly what I've been looking for: exercise at home (without a cheesy video), short but intense, and only competing against myself, thank you!!! I'm like you, 30s, 4 kids, at a good weight but definitely needed some toning and wanting to feel more fit. I'm so excited to start!
This was my first workout: 13:47ish but no wall ball and no 400 run (I was going to substitute with more jacks but 200 killed me), oh and the push ups were with knees to the ground and deadlift was with 45 bar.
10:46!!! Oh my! I completed all the exercises without a single hitch, but when I got to the 400m dash! I am probably the worst long distance runner! I can run 100m and start foaming at the mouth…completely pathetic 🙂
12:07 55# deadlifts This time is without the run, I wanted to do a long run so sloped the sprint and did a 10km, at an easy pace, especially considering the amount of squats I've done in the past 3 days! 🙂 love it!
This is my first time doing anything related to CrossFit, but it will not be my last!!
11:16, with Jump Squats instead of box jumps and Dumbbell Thrusters instead of wall ball shots. I felt really nauseous during the last 20 jumping jacks, but I hadn't eaten yet so I'm thinking that's probably why…? Thanks for this!!
as far as the thrusters are concerned are we actually supposed to do the same amount of thrusters as compared to wall balls? That seems a lot but I may be wrong.
loved this!!! 13:26 gurly push ups 40lb deadlift Thrusters for wall ball – made myself a wall but the glue isn't dry yet =) jump rope anyone else have to stop 1/2 way through to pee during those?? yikes! the joys of motherhood 800 m bike
okay 14:59 45# lift, girl pu, jumps only ab 12" and glad for it since this was my first time and MAN was that tough! Thrusters instead too. Everything else rx'd. Then through around some baseball.
Everything as rx'd, but my deadlift was only 38#. Sit-ups were on a decline for a little extra. I don't have a 10# ball, but I tossed a 10# dumbell up in the air.
10:57 with mods of jump rope without rope, 2 steps for box jump, 10# thrusters instead of wall ball with a pause in the middle for a phone call with my hubby
13:54 Still waiting to get some heavier weights. Boy push ups, 13 lb dead lifts, 12" box and, a soccer ball fir wall balls. 2:30 on the run, though, pretty good!
First time here…dumb question…do you do each excercise completely, even if you have to rest to be able to finish it? In other words, can you get in 200 jumping jacks in increments, between other exercises?
I would say, try to get the WOD done as prescribed if you can. If you get to an exercise and need a break and can get a few reps of the next exercise done while you recover, go for it and then come back to finish the set. Does that make sense?
11:31 as r/x. Good one!

60 lb deadlift
Trying to figure out how a heavier deadlift made me 3 minutes slower than last time and 4 minutes slower than Britta!!!
as far as the thrusters are concerned are we actually supposed to do the same amount of thrusters as compared to wall balls? That seems a lot but I may be wrong.
Yes. 1 thruster = 1 wall ball
loved this!!!
