oooooh…have fun everyone!! i did this last tuesday and it’s a great “twins” workout. definitely pinpoints weaknesses – was told that the first half and the second half should take about the same amount of time and if they are really different that tells you where you need to work. the second half took me a LOT longer – partly because of strength but mainly the double unders destroyed me! need to remember to start working those every day…

This workout looks awesome. That’s all.
#3 written by Basil 2 years ago

Yes, becky this will pinpoint weaknesses, for me Double Unders
#4 written by Matt H 2 years ago

I second the awesomeness of this workout…this looks like fun
#5 written by Lori F 2 years ago

Just for the record… this was NOT fun. I didnt make it through part 2 [early morning business meeting] but part 1 was a WOD all by itself…then pile on cleans and DU’s? It’s just cruel.

I am not a big fan of the new set up of the I phone view of the web site. It now takes 3 steps before you can read the comments.

Bea, I’m not sure what you’re talking about. i haven’t made any changes to the site. It’s possible the plugin we use so that it can be viewed on an Iphone was updated, but I can’t do anything to change that I think.

Bea
I’m looking to see if there are any settings to change. Can you tell me what three steps you’re having to do that you didn’t have to do before?

I think someone needs to call a Waaaambulance for Kiddo.

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.

Oh, wait! Here it comes now.

Becky, as I said the other day… this WOD is on point! Today is a rest day for me, but I will be doing this WOD in the very near future.

Can’t wait to hear how it goes!
#11 written by Jeff 2 years ago

7:25 for the first half, something like 23:56 Rx’d total. Definitely tough and fun.
#12 written by B. Kiddo 2 years ago

First of all, Mitchell I have a special salute just for you. I believe I have shown it to you before. If you are at the gym tonight I will show you again…. just in case you forgot.

Dave, It is more than likely a WordPress issue if you did not do anything. When you go to the site through your chosen mobile device, it now makes you:
Click on the day
Expand that Day
Then click on Comments
It is minor, but a little annoying when you visit the site multiple times a day.

Regarding Fight Gone Bad 4:

I’m going to be in Europe on 9/26, but I’d like to help the CrossFit Durham team out. What can I do?
#14 written by Dave P 2 years ago

I took too long and had to switch to jumprope singles, but was able to complete a lot more double-unders than I expected.

This is off-topic, but since the 11:30 class was talking about it, below is the link to the news story/videos of trucks crashing into a nearby overpass in Durham. Not the Roxboro intersection where there was an accident this morning, but still nearby.

I liked this one

I can’t wait to learn double unders – they remind me of patting your head and rubbing your stomach because your hands are going twice as fast as your feet.

Tomorrows a rest day see y’all Wednesday.
#16 written by Dave 2 years ago

Becky, I think that’s the perfect way to explain DU’s!

Dave, that’s the bridge by the old gym! I actually saw one of those U-Haul trucks get the top ripped off like that
#19 written by Matt H 2 years ago

loved this one even though I hate cleans and can’t do double under’s, did the first ten then 3x singles for rest. Actually strung two double unders together much to the amusement of Kelli and Dave. Its the coordination thing….or lack of. 115 for cleans.

1st part 6.41
total was 20.02

did a 100 thrusters with 45 pound bar at home later that night in 5.46 (doing stuff like that on your own sucks)

doubling up on wod’s for final stretch before Ironman

100 burpee pullups the night before in 14.38

…and yes, seeing the truck stuck under the bridge amused me
