Do a Deal With Ya…
I want to order up new t-shirts. Who wouldn’t want a “Why would you stop?” t-shirt. But Tom won’t let me until we clear some of the t-shirts we currently have. Now, I know what you’re thinking, Tom is weak like otter, not strong like bull, but he used words like inventory management and mentioned his time in DBS so I was forced to agree with him.
So, if anyone would like to pick themselves up a great quality CrossFit Ireland t-shirt or hoodie please talk to Tom and he’ll undoubtedly do a deal with ya bossman.
Bobby I have done a few running/squat workouts on my own and they suck thats why I thought it would be a good one!
Please–I don’t know what those two sandbaggers are doing. I could have easily pulled one of those posts out.
Ok, a question for those of you who do KB work. I’ve never been that interested before but I’ve noticed that light deadlifting does not seem to bother my knee which made me think maybe KB swings and even cleans might be possible. I’ve also seen KB’s mentioned with the word ‘rehab’ a lot.
Anyway I don’t know the first thing about them past the Martone videos so the first question is whether it’s possible to put together a decent CF style routine and if it would be worth my time to investigate this stuff further.
Whats “crossfit total”?
Damien,
1 Rep Max attempt at the Back Squat
1 Rep Max attempt at the Shoulder Press
1 Rep Max attempt at the Deadlift
That’d be a good one for you.
Ha I’ve just realised that the workouts that have been picked so far (Peanuts you clownsack) are actually WORSE than what is usually put on…
weighted pullups and WOD pullups? That is unfair.
I would be interested in a “say no to smith machines” t-shirt, so how do i go about contacting this so-called “tom”?
No pain no gain Bobby..ouch my back.
Colm, give Tom a shout on 086-6077771.
Guys, remember to put forward what workout you think we should do tomorrow.
I’m not in tomorrow but I’ll suggest stuff anyway.
If Thursday is a Total, which it should be, then tomorrow could be:
Nicole
AMRAP 20
400m Run
Max Pullups
If Thursday is not a total then tomorrow should be
Front Squat 5-5-5
AMRAP 10
10 Wallballs
10 Double Unders
Scoring format is up on the CF games website for this weekend. Events based on points system similar to some of the qualfiers. There is 5 events the first day and Sunday will be multi event also. I’m gonna have to go with Speal as the favourite with that many events. Josh Everett is my favourite CF’er but he’s going to get nailed with that many events and get nailed with movements he hasn’t practiced.
I’m routing for Josh Everett too, but it really depends on the order of the events.
If the first is as many double unders as possible in a single set, for example, that could screw a bunch of people on nerves. If it’s a 500m row, again, it can favour some people.
My guess is the first two workouts would be fairly CrossFit-esque, ie we’ll have seen the movements before and it’ll be mixed mode. I can imagine the organizers/HQ will come under fire for this format.
Ooo, I can already smell the shitstorm the elimination-style format is going to stir up.
Imagine getting eliminated based on your performance on the first 2 rounds, only to see workouts that you know you’d have dominated come up later on…there’s gonna be war.
here is a workout :
15 x cleans 50kgs
run 200m
10 x cleans 50kgs
row 200m
5 x cleans 50kgs
run 200m
what ya think might be very heavy on the legs
Hmmm… since I still get slagged about the ‘ridiculous weight’ comment I made
, I should really put forward the wod that caused it 
15 Dumbbell Snatch Right Hand
15 Dumbbell Push Press Right Hand
15 Dumbbell Snatch Left Hand
15 Dumbbell Push Press Left Hand
Run 400m
12 Dumbbell Snatch Right Hand
12 Dumbbell Push Press Right Hand
12 Dumbbell Snatch Left Hand
12 Dumbbell Push Press Left Hand
Run 400m
9 Dumbbell Snatch Right Hand
9 Dumbbell Push Press Right Hand
9 Dumbbell Snatch Left Hand
9 Dumbbell Push Press Left Hand
Run 400m
or 3 x 500m row.
As much rest as needed in between sets
