CrossFit 864 – Today’s Schedule:
4:15p.m. / 5:15p.m. / 6:15p.m.
Day 61 of the “100 Burpee Challenge”
“WOD” 150 Push-ups for time
Check out the following CrossFit Journal article on Pushups.
http://www.crossfit.com/journal/library/07_03_Pushups.pdf
*Every time you stop and rest with your chest on the ground this constitutes a penalty. If a penalty is counted, you must immediately sprint 200 meters. Once the penalty is completed continue with the push ups.
*You can rest in a up position (locked out in the top of a push up) but once you can not do push ups any longer and need to rest on the ground, a penalty is counted and a 200 yard sprint must be completed. If your knees touch the ground it’s time to put 200 meters on those new running shoes!
If you can maintain PERFECT push-up form for all 150 push-ups, then you don’t have to run.
Scaled version – You can do them from your knees but must have your hips extended with full ROM. All the way down to the mat – halfway does not count as a rep. If you count them you only cheat yourself!
Count your time + the number of penalties
We will do the run out of the back door (glass door) US-76 side. It will be marked 100 meters at the turn.
Brothers, if someone is caught in a sin, you who are spiritual should restore him gently. But watch yourself, or you also may be tempted. Carry each other’s burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ. If anyone thinks he is something when he is nothing, he deceives himself. Each one should test his own actions. Then he can take pride in himself, without comparing himself to somebody else, for each one should carry his own load.
Galatians 6:1-5
“The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena; whose face is marred by sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotion, spends himself in a worthy cause; who at best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement; and who at worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who have never tasted victory or defeat.”
-Theodore Roosevelt
You know you are a true CrossFitter if:
1 – You would rather die than quit a wod.
2 -You believe with all of your heart that every other form of fitness seems obsolete.
3 – You consider other CrossFitters family.
4 – You must workout with loud obnoxious music, but never hear a word of it.
5 – You used to bite your nails and now you pick at your callouses.
6 – Tape and chalk are at a premium.
7 – You don’t remember what it is like to have mirrors in a gym.
8 – Pain is a relative term.
Good job on the Man-Maker / KTE / Squat WOD today!
CrossFitters – the most determined and motivated athletes on the planet!
Look forward to seeing you on Friday….
BE STRONG!
