864 STRENGTH + CONDITIONING Training / The Daily GRIND: NO Routines. No Ruts. CONSTANTLY VARIED.”Coffland”

#1 Goal today – Be YOU. Don’t compare yourself to others.

For time – In the following order:

CF HQ Hero Workout “Coffland”

Hang from a pull-up bar for 6 minutes
Each time you drop from the bar, perform:
800-m run
30 push-ups

You can’t get STRONGER if you don’t show up at the gym.

If you drop from the bar or your feet TOUCH the box – complete run / push-ups before starting the next bar hold. Both hands must stay on the bar at all times – no hanging from one hand / switching hands.

U.S. Army Spc. Christopher J. Coffland, 43, of Baltimore, Maryland, died Nov. 13, 2009, in Wardak province, Afghanistan, of wounds suffered when enemy forces attacked his unit with an improvised explosive device. Coffland, who joined the Army a month before reaching the enlistment age limit of 42, was assigned to the 323rd Military Intelligence Battalion at Fort Meade, Maryland. He was deployed to Afghanistan two weeks prior to his death.

Coffland was a CrossFit athlete who was known to have demolished the U.S. Army Physical Fitness Test, which features push-ups, sit-ups and a 2-mile run. He was particularly fond of long workouts, heavy lifts, distance sprints, push-ups and sit-ups.
