“Jerry”
Run 1 mile
Row 2000 meters
Run 1 mile
For Dead-Lift, I worked my way up to 350 for 10 reps.
Not my first time doing Jerry, but first time doing it without a treadmill - and first time doing it after a strength workout on the same day - so all new dynamic here. I couldn't find my last Jerry time.
My first mile was finished in about 7:40. Not really sure exactly what I was going for - nothing too impressive, but this was a little slower than I anticipated. The row was very tough after this, and I averaged a 2:05/500m the whole time, finishing at 8:20 (16 minutes on the clock). When I went back out for run, I could barely lift my legs! I definitely was off to a slow start, but I progressively got faster, and finished at 24:47, so my last mile was 8:47 - much slower than the first.
I now have something to try to beat next time. :)

Today's WOD:
4-4-12
A.
skill work - rope ascent
B.
3 rounds for time.
run 800 meters
3 rope ascents
25 hand release push-ups
C.
foam roll
I finished this workout in 20:05. I might have been able to get faster on the runs, and perhaps could have increased my pace if I used my legs on the first round of rope ascents, but I strong-armed the first 3 ascents. I tried this on the 2nd and 3rd and didn't make it, so I had to use my feet to assist - this also ended up hurting my 2nd and 3rd round of push-ups which I had to break up - the first set was done unbroken.

CrossFit 321 WOD:
Strength
Back squat 5 @ 65% – 5 @ 75% – AMRAP @ 85%
Shoulder Press 5 @ 65% – 5 @ 75% – AMRAP @ 85%
MetCon
15 minute AMRAP:
10 Wall Balls 20/14 pounds
10 Toes to Bar
10 Box Jumps 24/20 inch
Squats were: 5x 295, 5x 345, 8x 395
Press: 5x115, 5x125, 4x135
Sucked it up on the MetCon. I started out fast - 2 rounds in under 2 minutes, with good kipping Toes To Bar. After that it went downhill. I officially recorded my score at 6 rounds plus 10. It might have been 7, but I think 6. I didn't start recording until round 3, and I'm just not sure if I crossed off just 1 and 2 at the end, or if I crossed off 1, 2 and 3. Either way, I was pooped and couldn't recover. Good workout.

Interesting workout at CrossFit 321, but it was fun.
It was like a group competition, and honestly, I'm not sure I can remember it all.
We started off in teams of 3, with 4 minutes on the clock, AMRAP burpees, one person working at a time, 30 seconds on, 60 off while the other two went. I got 3 rounds in at 16 burpees per round.
I think we next went to Sumo Deadlift High Pulls with a KettleBell, same concept. I again got 3 rounds in, this time with 16-18 high pulls per round.
Next we went to plate pushes, followed by bear crawls, followed by push-ups - that was an interesting and tiring combination. I got up to 56push-ups, but this was only 2 minutes. Lastly, we did 3 people on the rower, with everyone else doing squats. In the time we had, I rowed about 450m and did 186 squats.
We then rested for 4 minutes and did another game, similar set-up, but different exercises - but honestly it's all too foggy. I do remember sit-ups instead of squats during the rows at the end, but that's about it.

3/30/2012 - Helen
CrossFit 321 this morning.
Bench Press 5 @ 40% – 5 @ 50% – 5 @ 60%
Ring dips 10-10-10 (weighted if possible)
MetCon
“Helen”
3 rounds for time of.
Run 400 meters
21 Kettle Bell Swings 53/35
12 Pull-ups
For bench press - 120,150,180
Ring Dips were done BW only for the first 2 rounds, and then the last one was done with a 10# vest.
First time Helen. I knew it was going to be tough, because it's very similar to Claudia, which wrecked me for a week. I finished 3rd in the class today with 10:55. Gotta drop like 3 minutes to catch up with the average CrossFit competitors this year!
