Chris Friday

Oh God, I'm sorry for all the bad things I've ever done....

First attempt at Crossfit WO "Linda"
10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 reps of the triplet:
Deadlift: 1 1/2 bodyweight (260#)
Bench press: body weight (175#)
Clean: 3/4 body weight (130#)

Jason and I planned to call it at 30 min. whether or not we had completed all reps. This WO started sucking pretty much right away. Jason was able to finish in just under 29 min. (but did BP@ 135 instead of 150). I completed through the 5 rep set in 29 min. So, 45 reps of each exercise instead of 55. It was more than enough. I won't feel like doing this WO again for a long time.

Part of me wants to try it. Looks awful.

I suggest you don't listen to that part of you.

I'm hoping that giving blood yesterday is at least part of the reason it was so damn hard today.

We pick day. You bring barbell. I lift weights. Us have drinks.
