We gave Wednesday’s workout a try way back on December 30th of 2009, so those of you that have been with us since the beginning may have had a chance to try this couplet made famous at the 2008 CrossFit Games (WMV/MOV). This is a fast workout, like sub 3 minutes fast. It definitely shouldn’t take more than 10 minutes when scaled appropriately. Keep that form as close to perfect as possible, as your plowing through deadlifts, flying through burpees, and back again.

Push Jerk: 70kg – same as PP 5RM, not getting anything from the drop
WOD: 6:46 Rx – Deadlifts @ 275 were much heavier and slower than @ 225
Eric P, if you don’t break 5 minutes on this one, my image of you will be forever tarnished.
Push jerk: 37kg
WOD: 5:27 with 49kg – ha, maybe I should have just done 50. 🙂
Haha nice speed…it’s amazing how heavy the last kilo can be. See y’all @ 6.
wow, strong challenge from Nathan for Eric P. I went to crossfit cape cod this morning for a vacation wod and did 10 deadlifts, 50 du’s, 8 dl’s, 40 du’s, 6 dl’s, 30 du’s, 4 dl’s, 20 du’s, 2 dl’s, 10 du’s. 4:36 with Deadlifts at 275. Doubles are still not where i want them to be but it was a fun morning. Miss all you guys at CFF, might have to do a hurricane wod later in the week.
Awesome work bruv!
I like the programming – looks intense!
Push jerk: 40kg. Shoulders tight, probably from Monday’s brutal WOD.
WOD: 5:43 with 80kg, but I think my form was crap.
Jerk: 70kg Felt solid on the movement
WOD: 5:36 (w/ 110kg) real happy with the weight
Jerk: 80kg
WOD: 5:06rx
Nathan, I was hoping to be close to 4minutes, the Deadlifts were not bad at all, but i’m slow as molasses when it comes to bodyweight stuff.
I did this workout on December 30th at 85kg at 6minutes, so shaving a minute off and adding 40kg is okay. Not where i want to be though.
Not quite 5 minutes but awesome time none the less. Nice work, bud.
BTW – TY and Kyle did an incredible job today – I need to step it up!
Push-press (still trying to wrap my brain around the jerk part): 33kg PR
WOD (55kg) — 5:07
As much as I would have loved to go heavier, my DL form is still iffy and I’d like to remain on good terms with my back.
Nice work 5 and 6…
smart move on the deadlifts. wish i had done the same..
Jerk 60kg, last 70kg.
WOD 3:57 (125kg)
