115-pound Hang clean, 15 reps (no barbell, did 35# dumbells 1st 3 rounds, then 30#)
12 Ring dips (no rings - did regular dips...mostly assisted)
21 Sit-ups
Did 5 rounds in 20 minutes...the HC with dumbells was harder on my arms than my legs. Probably due to poor form.
Friday - off day
Saturday
Walking lunge 100 ft. X 6

21, 18, 15, 12, 9, 6 Sit-ups

Total time was 14:50. Pull ups are still a serious weakness. I have improved my sit ups and the lunges were not bad. The pull ups continue to kick my butt.

Cindy Baby
Monday was off day.
Tuesday:
"Cindy"
Complete as many rounds in 20 minutes as you can of:
5 Pull-ups
10 Push-ups
15 Squats
I actually did well on this. Last time, I did 16 rounds; however, I started jumping pullups after the 2-3 round and knee push ups after 4-5 rounds. I was hurting afterward!!!
This time I did 17 rounds. I did kipping pullups and regular pushups for the first 10 rounds. I then resorted to jumping pullups and knee pushups as my body tired.
My first set of pullups hurt like I was yanking my arms out of their sockets. Not sure how to effectively prepare for the first set of pullups.
Warmup - 1 mile run, 3xcft wu (no pullups or pushups)
Cooldown - 1 mile run

The Rider Below
I did find the name of the rider...Missy G from Huntsville. I contacted her via Facebook and will be sending her a bigger file for her personal use.
Xfit Tuesday
Felt much better today. Not sure what the problem was yesterday with the fainting feeling.
Shoulders were really sore from yesterday's workout. In fact, I could not raise my right arm above my shoulder when I got out of bed.
Today's pain:
Overhead Squat 5-5-5-5-5 reps (ok this was a non-starter)
No barbell at work gym. I did the crossfit warmup and really pushed it:
1 mile run
samson stretch
3 rounds of
10 dips
25 sit ups
15 push ups
25 back extensions on exercise ball
10 kipping pull ups (oh my shoulders)
I tried the OHS using dumbells...not good. I ended up doing the workout with an 18# bar. My technique sucketh!
Closed with 5 shoulder presses at 70# and then one each at 80, 90, and 100#. Finished all off with another 1 mile run.

Monday Xfit
Another gut buster and I really felt lousy today (nearly had a fainting spell this morning and felt lightheaded all morning long).
My arms were really feeling it today and I had trouble with the pull ups from the git go. I did mostly kipping pull ups, but my grip started giving way toward the end. I did the last 5 jumping. Nothing like feeling mortal!
"Erin"
Five rounds for time of:
40 pound Dumbbells split clean, 15 reps (used 30#s instead)
21 Pull-ups (15, 15, 10, 10, 10)
