Open WOD 12.3 – March 8, 2012

Karen's first toes to bar!!!!
John and Killa earn the highest men's and women's scores tonight!

AMRAP in 18 minutes of:

  • 15 box jumps (24/20″)
  • 12 push press (115/75#)
  • 9 toes to bar

Notes: And we finally have it – a “traditional” CrossFit WOD!  It’s a brutal triplet that will tax your lungs, legs, arms, and core. The push press weight is heavy for some of you, but don’t let that worry you! Get through as many reps as you can, and if you can’t move the bar we’ll scale back to something more reasonable so you get a good workout in.  Just like the last two weeks, we (John and Nikki) will watch the standards video and be ready to talk standards tomorrow at 5pm. The gym will be open at 4:30 to start warming up. We’ll run heats approximately every half hour until everyone has had a chance to compete!

    The key word here is definitely taxing. At least no DUs (just kidding).

  2. Lindsey

    Although, this will be rough- I am excited for this WOD!!!

  3. Mark

    Nothin. 2rds/minute.

  4. John

    Only for the middle minutes Mark, first 5 and last 5 should be 3 a minute.

  5. Kevin

    I know I’m wrong about this … but I kinda like it. I don’t think I can keep up with Mark and John’s pace though … I’m just gonna stick with 1.8 rds / minute.

    1. Sarg

  6. Killa

    This does look tough! Excited though. A bit crunched for time tonight – can I be in the 1st heat? 🙂

    1. Nikki

      Definitely Emily! We’ll get you in the first heat – likely 5:15ish? If you need to go earlier than that let me know

        Thanks Nikki, I appreciate that. But looks like I’ll need to make this up Saturday morning. Good luck to everyone tonight!

  9. Nick

    Unfortunately it looks like I’m going to have to take a crack at this on Saturday, stupid work related deadlines.
