  1. 4 round + 28 (just 8 box jumps short on my fifth round). 100# dead-lifts & 16" box jumps. I loved this workout. I like all three moves and it was AWESOME to workout outside again. The dead-lifts felt pretty easy, and I surprised myself with fairly good form on the push-ups for the first 4 rounds...wooohooo!

    Charles, make sure you rock this one today!!!!

  2. Did this at Spartan on 3/31. 6 rounds + 17 reps; 100 lb DL, 20" box. Nice WOD. Hardest part was keeping a straight plank on the pushups! Slowed me down just a bit.

  3. CW: 4 rounds + 17 reps. 100# DL, 20" box. Interesting WOD. I imagine for an elite athlete, all the moves would get them breathing hard. for me, DL require form under load; Pushups were limited by strength. Box jumps were what got the heart pumping. The other two moves seemed more like recovery. I should work on speeding up the weightlifting moves (not at the expense of form, though.)

    Fun. I'm looking forward to C&J on Wednesday!
