was a killer – very difficult workout for me. lack of endurance + being a fat@$$ = not easy to do body weight workouts. but i liked this one and i realize i need to do more workouts like this to get to where i want. thanks Crossfit Football for this one!

absolutely ridiculous how simple this workout seemed… until i did the box jumps in the first round! pull ups were kipping, because strict would’ve taken forever.

Workout of the Day

Tillman
Complete 7 rounds for time:

7 Deadlifts – 315 lbs
1 Full Gasser
15 Pull Ups
*Rest 45 seconds between rounds

My Results

25:35 – compared to 32:33 on 1/8/11

i subbed the football field gasser (two trips across the football field and back) for a basketball court gasser (freethrow line, back, halfcourt, back, freethrow line, back, fullcourt, back) and after the first round, i ended up doing jumping pull ups…

and yes, that is an exact copy of the first round (why reinvent the wheel) – today’s results and modifications were very similar outside of the much reduced time. it would appear as though what i’m doing is helping.
