My first CrossFit Competition is just 18days away....and I am wondering what I got myself into! LOL! I thought signing up to do the "scaled" version would be ideal for me, but now that the WODs are coming out..... I am scared out of my mind!!!!
Pull ups are hard for any crossfitter..... and I am just now getting them. Toes to bar are no jock either, but those don't bother me too much. So when WOD #1 was announced, we were all shocked to see that the "scaled version" of pullups were not scaled at all. Instead, they have made it even more complicated by saying you must do Toes to Bar to PullUp.....and continue to cycle through it. OMG!!
Here is the first WOD:
Dynamic Duo Death Match WOD #1
For Time: (8 min cap)
9-7-5 of:
Thrusters
Toes to Bar/Chest to Bar
Then 9-7-5 of:
Power Snatches
Toes to Bar/Chest to Bar
Womens Scaled - 65# Thrusters and Power Snatches
*1 rep Men and Women Scaled = 1 Toes to Bar + 1 Chin Above Bar Pull-up
*Partner 1 completes 9 Thrusters while Partner 2 completes 9 T2B+C2B.
When both Partners have completed reps they switch and Partner 1
completes 9 T2B+C2B while Partner 2 completes 9 Thrusters. Switch again
and complete the round of 7 reps each, then 5 reps each. When 9-7-5 of
Thrusters and T2B+C2B has been completed Teams will move on to 9-7-5 of
Power Snatches and T2B+C2B.
I am not worried about anything but those toes to bar/pullups.
Here is where I am at-----mind you, this is a huge improvement to where I was!!
This should be
interesting fun!!! I am praying I can cycle through these by the time it competition time. ***FYI, this is only one WOD out of three we will do!! :-).
