Long-time No Crossfit

Recreation — Tags: , , , , — Tim Nowaczyk on July 30th, 2008

It’s been a while since I’ve crossfitted. I haven’t done this workout since the very first time I tried a crossfit workout.

“Helen”

Three rounds for time:
Run 400 meters
1 1/2 pood Kettlebell X 21 swings (or 55 pound dumbbell swing)
12 Pull-ups

Post time to comments.

The scaled down “pack” workout calls for 35 pound dumbbell swings which is about 1 pood, and I just happen to have a 1 pood kettlebell. I got to the AFC at about 9:10 and did the standard warm-up sans pullups. My sit-ups were on the floor instead of in the GHD because I think I’ve lost a bit of flexability. I can’t do dips, so I could only do 5, then 3 of them. It was 9:30 and I still had to do my last set of dips for the warm-up, but I skipped them so that I could start on the workout. I finished two rounds and didn’t think I could complete the third before they closed, so I skipped it.

Total time: 20:54 for two rounds.
