Teams : Competition won by Crossfit AUCKLAND!!!!!! nice effort from CFAK - they get to go to the World's as well. Crossfit NZ came 6th.

Amazing stuff well done Kiwis!!!!!

Went back last night after 10 days or so off.....gulp

You'd think the rest would make me stronger but in those 10 days I think i stacked on about 2 kgs

Weighted pullups 10 kgs max...PB 15kgs x 1

WOD

7 deads

7 hang power clean

7 front squats

7 chest to overhead anyhow (I did split jerks)

10 mins AMRAP

same weight for all exercises - I used 30kgs which was rx weight

got thru 5 rounds + deads

and man was I dead after

[bigdogbob]

Went last thurs with the boys...best training they've ever done!!!

So back into it properly...well it's day 1 so we'll see

Horizontal jump...last time bout 170cm today 190 cm !!!! white chicks can jump :pfft:

WOD= Angie

100 pull ups

100 pressups

100 sit ups

100 squats

to do it rx you have to do the 100 before moving onto the next exercise.....yeah right!!!! I did 10 sets of 10 reps of each exercise

did the same 10 x (10 x 4) last time and it took me 23:20 today it was just over 19 mins....yeah stoked! Specially after only 2 training sessions in the last two weeks and a heap of bad eating adding a coupla kilos to the mix.

Wow just caught up on your journal...that's some wicked numbers there. No wonder you got DOMS.

Ah just getting back to the cheesecake...what kind?...cheesecake is my ultimate cheat meal =P~

[bigdogbob]

Still as sore as buggery but went to train anyway

WOD - Grace

30 clean and jerk (rx m=60kg/w=45kg)

Last done a couple of months ago when I used 35kgs and it took me 6:00 minutes

Today I was still really sore, especially trying to get the weight over my head so I stuck with 35kgs but it only took me 4:20 so happy/sad :?

I tried 1 at 40 kgs at the end and I could have managed it just talked mysef out of it..never mind...next time

[teamfatboy]

Aaargh - the old "second-guessing yourself" problem with the weights.... if you figure out the answer, can you let me know? :oops: :grin:

There's always gonna be a next time, and then you WILL nail it, I'm sure.

[bigdogbob]

I think we all know the answer TFB....Harden the f%$k up!!!!!! :pfft: :pfft:

[runveerun]

Harden the f%$k up!!!!!!

That's the spirit Nessie! :grin:
