Stuart Tabata Squats 14
Tabata Push Press (45 lb bar) 19
Samantha
Grant 7:54
Nick 12:06
Nick is stronger than Grant and me and can press a 72 lb KB whereas Grant and I cannot. Nick's slower time with Samantha is based mostly on a degradation of muscular stamina during the pressing movements and a rapid decline in pullup strength. As it always does, CrossFit ferrets out weaknesses and rubs your nose in them.

Lance was sick on the 27th so he did his pullup challenge today and got 33...well above his hoped for goal of 25.
Samantha (95 lb barbell)
Press 7-5-3
Push Press 7-5-3
Push Jerk 7-5-03
Pullups 21-15-9
This was created with 85 lbs in mind but Stuart suggested we do 95. Since Alex and I did Tabata Push Presses yesterday I wasn't too keen on that much weight...but I went along. Glad I did. I did 2:58 last time I did this and that was with 85 pounds. Clean the barbell and press it 7 times, then push press it 7 times and then finally push jerk it 7 times. Then go do 21 pullups. Next press it 5, push press it 5 and push jerk it for 5 and then do 15 pullups. Finally do the same thing with 3 reps each time and 9 pullups. A quick one but very potent. Kind of like Fran but without all the leg work.
Eugene 2:48
Stuart 3:00
Lance 5:41
Alex 6:27
Then we did some ab work which consited of:
Leg circles once each direction and 2 K2E repeated 5 times.
25 ab mat situps
15 GHD parallel holds with a vertical throw.

For the first time I did my back squats with the Rippetoe powerlifter low hold on my back and with my very first set of 12 my hamstrings revolted and were not at all interested in continuing with the workout. DRAMATIC difference in the recruitment of the rear wheel drive muscles. This is a great complement to the Heavily Armed workout and might make a good Epic workout as a combination.

I should post a video of Toni doing muscle ups in the harness. Amazing to see. She's OK when her shoulders are fresh but 30 muscle ups, even with the harness, is not something her shoulders are used to. The fight she has to get through the transition and up over the rings and then the struggle to lock out the dip is mesmerizing. She is devoted to each and every rep as if that rep alone defined her development. She is working to become a fire fighter and is one of the hardest workers in our gym.

Micha post Root Canal in an astonishing 14:50. He finds it difficult to do the CF workouts in the Bally's where he usually trains because of the commute time between stations and the lack of cooperation of people who don't hug the walls when someone needs to race by to get to his next piece of equipment. Later in the day the afternoon group went for:
