  • Kirk

    Second day back at the Box… nearly killed me.
    Closest I have ever come to meeting Pukey after a WOD since starting Crossfit (Yes, Allison, even closer than THAT day during Elements…).
    20:51 (as Rx’d as possible – subbed towel pull-ups for rope climbs)
    Just in case people haven’t already found this one out – Double Unders are NOT like riding a bike… Six weeks out and it’s like I never did them before (not that I ever did them well…)

  • Tim B

    18:18 RX’ed (6x rope climbs on our rope)
    congrats to Allison and the Box for getting featured on VitalJuice.com

    15.51 – 75# barbell instead of 2×35#dumbbell

  • jacinto

    25:01 used 65#barbell for hang squat clean and 10 towel pull ups for the rope everything else RXD.

  • Rickke

    20:58 with all Rx’d except for subbing 27 towel pull-ups for 3 rope climbs. Not sure if that was the correct sub after all.

  • Reagan

    As Rx’d
    22:51
    Black Box (206,206)

    I think a more accurate 2 x dumbbell to barbell conversion would be 95-105#

    Did sprint intervals at home today rather than this chipper.
    Time to go around the block varied from 2min 5 sec to around 2min 15 sec. Rested 1 minute between each sprint, did a total of 4 sprints.
    Sprinting sure sucks the air right out of you.

    First time doing ring dips since April. Felt fairly weak, but just happy that I could actually do these.
