August 1 - Shane's WOD

As I have mentioned, I am out at my Parent's house/horse/dog sitting. Therefore, I am unable to do the main page WOD today of back squats.

So, I brought with me all my equipment that loads up and travels easily and the handy dandy hopper deck. I decided to shuffle and pull from the hopper and do whatever the first WOD is that I pull and have sufficient equipment. As luck would have it, the first card I pulled is gonna work:

4 of Hearts:
10-20-30 reps for time of:
Slam Ball
Walking Lunge Steps
Overhead Squats

Now, my interpretation of this WOD may not be perfect as I am assuming that these are body weight (PVC) overhead squats since the card is not labeled with any weight. If I am wrong, oh well, I am not in a perfect situation and the first card I pulled just fit well.

All we have is a 12# slam ball and for the overhead squats I am going to find the heaviest piece of metal pipe that my Dad has out here.

Hey, it is what it is.

I will also be doing some muscle-up skills work on Cruz's rings because Mark and Jeanna Cournoyer are coming over to hang out tonight and Mark wants me to teach him the muscle-up.

  2. So, Jeanna's back is thrown out from an intense shooting class so she is on the DL and only me, Karen and Mark did this WOD. Me and Mark used a wooden log thing that is about 6" diameter and weighs probably 15#s or so for our overhead squats, Karen used a broomstick.

    Shane: 4:59
    Mark: 7:22
    Karen: 5:52

    Nice job by everyone. Karen friggin' crushed it, I am so proud of her.

    Cool down was 3 rounds of 10 burpees and about a 200m jog. Then me and Mark got on the rings. Mark came very close to getting his first muscle up. With a little practice he will get it soon. I did several kipping muscle ups as demonstrations. I also did a complete dead-hang muscle up just to see if I could.

    All of this was followed up by some good burgers, fries, onion rings and a massive amount of beer. Good times. Really wish Ben and Tasha could have been here as well.
