"OPT"
for time; throw all of the following movements/exercises into a hopper/hat/underwear drawer/whatever and honestly pick out in the order they come the fashion in which you do this workout; your path is your destiny, have fun!

135# power clean x 10 reps
30" box jumps x 25 reps
10 muscle ups
Row 400 m (10)
25 GHD Raises
50 double unders
25 toes to bar
20 wall balls - 20# to 10ft
15 DB split jerk - 30#/h

post the path and your time to comments
toes to bar - hanging from bar, touch toes to bar with minimal arm bend, bend at hips only, you cannot touch down to reset unless fractioning; full extension of knees at top of power clean and box jumps, body perpendicular with floor at top of GHD Raises (NOT sit ups), ass to grass on wall balls, damper 10 on rower, arms come to full extension at bottom and top of muscle ups

Copied and pasted into a list randomizer (http://www.random.org/lists/) - easier than finding anything in my underwear drawer at 5 in the morning.

1. 20 wall balls - 20# to 10ft
2. 30" box jumps x 25 reps
3. 135# power clean x 10 reps
4. Row 400 m (10)
5. 15 DB split jerk - 30#/h
6. 50 double unders
7. 25 toes to bar
8. 25 GHD Raises
9. 10 muscle ups

Ryan... assuming you have rings or at least a bar to do muscle ups on, it probably depends on your level of development.... classic sub is 4 pull/4 dip.... but you would probably do well to watch this video and pull one of the drills from there.

OPT said...

remember, you do not choose the path you want, as they come out of the hopper, that is the way you do them..in that order...

Ahhhh, we're going back to the old school with that pic. Good times.

My word is 'hooty.' I'm thinkin' Blowfish.

My randomized path with subs for lack of equipment in ()

row 400m(40 SDLHP 45lbs)
50 DU's
135lb power cleans-10 reps
30" box jump-25 reps
25 toes to bar
15 split jerk (65lb barbell)
(10 jumping MU's)
25 GHD raises
(30 wall balls-12#ball, 10 ft target)

11:30, toes to bar took the most time

Box Jumps and Toes-to-Bar painfully slow, MU's and P Cleans slower than planned.

Sam Edwards said...

i need some help please. after yesterdays wod its apparent that i need to add some strength. would throwing in some strength work, say 3x5, pre or post wod be asking to much. or do i need to focus primarily on strength training. any advice would be very appreciated.

Geoff Aucoin said...

Sam, it's early in the game for you. If you've got enough to commit before or after one of these WODs to work on strength then go for it, but strength will come along with the work capacity. Just keep at 'er, it's early.

Sam Edwards said...

i have been crossfiting a year plus now and my strength seems to be going no where. you think eating more( only about 2500 cals right now) would play in my benefit?

Geoff Aucoin said...

What have you been doing to increase your strength so far, Sam?

Sam Edwards said...

just the crossfit.com.. im now seeing alot of my times suffer because of it. i was wanting to be able to compete at the qualifier in may, but i am starting to second guess it. now i am going to start eating big, concentrating on the OPT blog, and if possible maybe throw in some strength focused lifts if i can manage. what do you think?

Geoff Aucoin said...

Nice work, fellers!

I decided today would be something of a 'cheat' day for me and I've discovered THE best cheat cookie for me; Scotty Hagnas' pumpkin cookies. They can be found in Dec 2007's Performance Menu and frig they are some shockin' good. I think I've eaten about 24 of them and I'm getting no swelling of the hands & feet or any insulin spikeage. I even had a beer and there's been no issues so I'm loving life! Woo!

Sam, sounds like a plan!

Just so everyone knows, my WOD was way harder then any of yours.

Time: 11:51 as RX'd

1) 30" box jumps x 25 reps
2) 20 wall balls - 20# to 10ft
3) Row 400 m (10)
4) 10 muscle ups
5) 50 double unders
6) 25 toes to bar
7) 135# power clean x 10 reps
8) 15 DB split jerk - 30#/h
9) 25 GHD Raises

The rower fights hard at 10. DU's were clumsy. DB split jerks with alternate legs hurt me pretty bad. Split them up into 3 sets. GHD raises were tough but manageable. My hamstrings JUST healed up from the 50 GHD raises we did a week or so ago.

8:29 + 1:00??? Unfreakin beleivable! I guess I am going to get the screw-ups out early. Shut my watch off during the power cleans and noticed just before I started my double unders. Did the power cleans straight through with a drop each time so the time added is probably no more than 30s.
My order was:
wallball
muscle-ups
box jumps
GHD raise
Toes to bar
power clean
double unders
row
split jerk

Went straight through on everything except double unders.

I lied. Broke up toes to bar also.

starting with toes to bar made my grip hard for power cleans and jerks. then ghd raises toasted my hams for rowing and then rowing hurt my du's. ha good wod though.
