I can't do muscle ups so that is a major slow down. My double unders are spotty at best. I can do HSPU's but I have a hard time inverting so I haven't been able to integrate them in WODs yet. I can sprint pretty well, but anything with lots of running gasses me pretty fast. Any high rep movement that taxes my back when combined with running often causes a debilitating back cramp by the third round. I can't do chest to bar pullups and my max for regular pullups is about 8. Box jumps eat me alive. Burpees too. Hmmmm. I guess eveything slows me down.

i cant do muscle ups even if god helped me.
i can only get 2 double unders in a row, but the fast wrist action seems to trigger my wound a bit.

Fun WOD today. Long. Hard. Tough for a Monday.

Per Pete's suggestion - Subbed (15) 135# Squat Cleans for medball cleans, (15) 40# DB thrusters for wall balls, 300' lunges for 100'. Lunges took the longest for sure. had to rest at every 50'. nothing unbroken except dubs. Over 30 minutes with too much rest. (30:40 i think?)

As for what slows me down most? Anything with heavy hip / leg strength (DL, Squats, etc..) and the front rack position (collarbone)

WOD Rx- 32:20

hard..very hard. I definitely rested too much in between. chained dubs together pretty well. I do look forward to doing it again,soon.

anything with legs slow me down considerably-thrusters,squats (even air squats)..

Berkshire WOD

3 rounds: row 500m, 25 burpees
14:40
first round was the toughest for some reason

5 min rest then 24" max box jumps 2 minutes: 40


Hardest for me is wall ball 10 ft target and running. Short legs = short strides

This was by far a PR in many ways. the 24inch bj i did for the first timein the kendall competition and as Dan said "ain't no going back now". also, jsut got my first DU last week. can string 4 in a row, but decided to go for it. it slowed me down A LOT, but to do it RX was worth it. i felt so good!also, i did all pull-ups kips with no bands. that slowed me down a bit too.

Time: 39 minutes and 15 or so seconds.

probably the best most accomplished WOD to date
