This is my 1100th post!

Back squat: 7 triples, all at 175#

Met con: 5 rounds:
12 lunges (75# barbell across shoulders)
30 double-unders
8:08

Double unders felt pretty good!
Rx'd was 75# overhead... maybe next time.

Front squats, sled-pulling met con

1 1/4 front squats
(Squat below parallel, raise to just above parallel, then go right back down again and then all the way up.)
165 x 3, 3, 3, 3
95 x 3

Met con: 3 individually timed rounds
30 yd walking lunge (45# BB overhead)
30 yd sled pull sprint (25#)
30 yd backwards pull (  "  )
100 m farmer carry (40# DBs)

Times: 2:38, 2:17, 1:54

I got faster because my transitions improved. I didn't like this WOD all that much. Walking lunges were good, but I felt awkward and not all that challenged on the other movements. Should have gone heavier on everything?

Lunges, pull-ups, sit-ups @CFD

6 rounds:
100 ft walking lunges
21-18-15-12-9-6 pull-ups (1/3 kipping, 2/3 jumping; e.g. 7 kips + 14 jumps)
21-18-15-12-9-6 sit-ups

14:30

Lunges and sit-ups were super easy, pull-ups were hard. Weird workout.
