In case you haven’t already figured it out, we’re in the midst of a testing week here at CFNYC. Today’s test:

Wednesday 111228

“Baseline” (Compare to 111116)

For time:
500m Row
40 Squats
30 Sit Ups
20 Push Ups

12-step non-WODoholic program: I had other sh*t going on
North American and Western European dishes tend to combine ingredients that share flavor compounds; East Asian cuisine avoids them.
I am…balanced
Falcons have had a winning strategy for fitness
Live to give

Here’s what’s on tap for Thursday’s WOD classes:

Single set max of pull-up and push-up measured in reps, plank in seconds/minutes.

On the pull-up, the set ends once you come off the bar. On the pushup, the set ends when anything but hands or knees touch the ground. On the plank, the set ends when anything but hands or knees touch the ground, or when breaking from a straight line (i.e., but in the air, etc.).

  • Jim S

    Baseline 5:39. Includes a 25 second run from my rower to my pull up bar, but five seconds slower than last time.
    Also did Grace today. Last time I did 5:58 with 105#. Been pushing up the weight a bit lately and did it today at 115# but at a very slow 9:58. 

  • JennTang

    5:35 Rx – 32 seconds faster than last time. I’ll take it.

  • Kayam

    6:28, 42 seconds better than last time but lots of scaling. For some reason today’s baseline really felt hard. Almost met pukie.

  • Craig Peugh

    3:56 rx’ed
    Paul made me go fast.

  • Eric

    Did this twice, first time was 4:22 Rxd but Kevin rightfully called me out on range of motion, as some of the reps were too high. So this time did not count.

    Did this again with Dan Def, second time 4:29 Rxed. Good job Dan!

    Last time was 4:43

    Nice work on Baseline everyone. I hit the globo gym at the Spa here in Killington VT. Found a barbell and a couple of 25# plates and made up Death By Thrusters from 12/16.

    10 rds + 5 thrusters

    4:30, but had to do jumping-esque pullups because there wasn’t a steady bar near the rowers at the globo gym I went to.
