By now you have either come to the point where you could not be bothered with another challenge, or you have taken a strange kind of fondness to challenges! Either way I think you have understood where I stand!
For a while now I have had the pleassure of sharing results and experiences with Karl Steadman from CrossFit Manchester.. The man is an absolute stud, and a fantastic athlete- it has been a pleassure to have this opportunity to run along side an athlete like him, and I hope that I have managed to bring some kind of enthusiasm , if nothing else to his WOD's??
We have decided to take things to another level, and let me do the programming one month, and then Karl will do the programming one month! This should ensure that we both get to work on our programming skills, and we get to do some WOD's we have never done before? Any way we turn this it should be an learning experience!
So I'll present the first 3 days of the challenge here. Starting tomorrow:
Day 1
Overhead squat
15-15-15-15-15-4 reps
Day 2
"Helen"
Run 400m
KB-swing 24kg 21 reps
Pull ups 12 reps (Chest-to-bar)
3 rounds for time!
Day 3
For time Row 5 k
Day 4 rest
I hope you will join in on the challenge, and post your results here..
Much love

OHS

Träningsvärk sen i måndags, trasig rygg och generellt otränad...
Valde att inte köra tungt i sista då jag inte vet vad ryggen pallar. Lätt pass, men en bra start.
"Helen"
11.38
Samma sitution som ovan - med ännu mer träningsvärk... Lite orolig för ryggen, har inte sprungit på tre-fyra månader. Lugnt tempo, 12 kg KBS, vanliga kippar.
Just did "helen"...
It's funny how you can be wrong when you are doing your WOD..
During "helen" I felt great and I felt like I was hauling ass.. However my time was 11:25??
Well, I'm happpy Im back on track, and I'll start getting ready for tomoorrow..
How did you do??
Much love
Hey all!
Day 1:
Worked up to 52.5kg for 15 reps (PB)
Then got 70kg for 4 reps (PB)
It hurt.....a lot! :)
Day 2:
"Helen"
200m repeats
9.55
A way off best time, but went as hard as my fried shoulders would allow!
OHS
Day 1.
20 - 29 - 35.8 - 40 - 44.6 miss
(6/9)
and the 4 reps at 50 kg
I have been sick for two weeks, so this was my first workout. I´m gonna do Helen tomorrow.

I swear this is the most horrible workout I´ve ever done. I hated every minute of it!
Tight schedule today, had to squeeze it in before work @ 6.30. Stayed fasting till 11.45 which probably didn't improve the overall feeling
5K Row
20:51
Day 3
What a horrible WOD- who came up with that one..
Worked my little heart out:
19:23 but it felt really good!

hey!
I'd love to get in on the challenges with you guys but getting back into the WoD schedule is proving to be pretty tough.
The flu virus I picked up recently left me in a bit of a mess so i'm playing with a couple of things right now.
Today I hit OHS
15 @ 49kg
10 @ 60
7 @ 69
5 @ 80
4 @ 80
Then Mini "Angie" i.e half numbers.
8.17
then 100 doubles for time.
2.19.
Tomorrow I will see what the WoD is and hopefully I can hit "Helen" as well.
Take care, guys.
Man, i hate rowing!
5k in 20:12.9
Great work all, good to have so much company!
Karl
So I hit the main page WoD of heavy thrusters and then did "Helen",
Thrusters were
2 @ 75kg
2 @ 84kg
1 @ 89kg
2 @ 95kg
Then "Helen" CTB pull-ups
10.05..... My pb on this is around 8.02. All hail chest to bar.
Don't have a rower so i'll be banging out 500 sdhp after tomorrows WoD if it allows.
