re: Daily CrossFit Thread: Workouts and other musings..

this is my first year as an actual Crossfitter, as in going to a real gym, but I've actually done Murph several times and I used to do half Murph like once a week when I was working out in my garage or at the park

it was the first Crossfit workout that I was ever introduced to

I tweaked my shoulder over the weekend though so I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to do it this year, which sucks, as I was kinda looking forward to do it with a big group at the gym

I do Murph in less than an hour as my goal. Did once in like 49 minutes, but was in better shape 3 years ago.

I will muddle thru it Monday.

Do y'all break those up? Like 5 rounds of 20 pullups, 40 pushups, and 60 squats or 20 sets of Cindy?

Purists go 100 200 300

Slackers like me do 20 rds

Damn, torn calf too???

At the bottom of the calf. It felt like someone hit me in the calf at the start of a play. I walked off, but the next day, I could put zero weight on it..

The issue is the tendons right below the calf where scar tissue has built up. It tightens up right there and no amount of stretching will alleviate it.

Need an assload of a-stim scraping.



Torn long head bicep tendon..

For Murph I won’t be able to do all the pull ups. So band assisted pull-ups or jump pull ups?

I've done it both ways. The last two years have been un-partitioned, because that's how the coach wants it (for Rx atleast). It has made it very challenging.

Do ring rows

I am a huge ring row fan versus aided pullups. Jumping pull ups are ok, but not many people control the decent.

Just ordered these

I did a half murph today, subbed ring rows for pull ups.
