Bright and early on their Saturday morning Andres, Mateo, Paul, Kate, Summer and Jenny came in to train together as a team. Liz and I counted and judged reps and in the truest spirit of CrossFit Works, it turned out that the men and the women of the team accomplished the exact same number of reps which we did not know until they were finished and we had tallied up! Isn’t that cool? Their workout this morning was:
3 rnds for time:
800m punching bag carry (about 75lb for men and 45 for women) as a pair. The bag could not touch the ground (15burpee penalty), but they could pass it back and forth as often as needed.
The third person of each gender remained inside, and for the first round did as many chest-to-bar pullups as possible. Second round, the third person stayed in and did kb swings (2pd for men/1.5 for women). No drooping kettlebells counted (bell had to be above the handle at the top of the swing). Third round, the third person stayed in and did weighted (45/25) overhead walking lunges.
If they had been competing against another team, this workout would have been scored as follows: total time – total number of reps=score. After 7min rest, the team had 5minutes to accumulate as much time as possible in an L-sit. Feet had to remain above the height of the parallette.
Dr. H. came in to do a little practice and prep work for the Master’s Competition too.
Your team will be doing another workout together on Friday morning at 7am. If you can stop by and give them a shout, come on in.
That is inspiring. You guys look great.
I love the team workouts! although the most difficult part is waking up that early on a weekend!
our affiliate team rocks! i’ll stop by friday am
It was absolutely stunning to watch these six uber-beings go through their workout. Holy smokes! What a gift to be in the same city as these great athletes, let alone the same gym. And then Summer works out in the afternoon open gym workout! Homeric.
