John, congratulations!! HOW EXCITING!!!!!

Nice work to 9:30 class! Thanks Kris!! and Michelle for the pushes to keep going!


got this one in yesterday… but overlooked the 8″ jump on the burpees… although i did my burpees with a jump, it was for sure not 8″. learned alot from doing this WOD!

Round 1: 2:04 with unbroken 65lbs PP and broken 20″ box jumps
Round 2: 2:32 with 65lbs PP only 12 reps unbroken and broken 18″ box jumps

2:33
2:25
2:39
2:35
2:38
12:50 total working time

Note to self: Could have gone heavier on the PP – at least 37 lbs maybe 42.


note: box jumps slightly broken – like a second or so pause – hopefully not too long!


1:28/1:28/1:23/1:26/1:24 Total working time 7:09 as rx’d. Great job Shawn and Chantel. Thanks DJ, fun class (and by fun I mean I felt completely ill afterwards!!)


Congrats John, that is a great picture.


1:43/1:54/2:02/2:33/2:50 = 11:01 working time

I did my best, but it was not quite as rx’d. I did not fully lock out my 15th PP on round 4, and for round 5 I could only manage 14 PP before having to set the bar down. The box jumps were all unbroken.


Neil – 65 lb PP, 14″ box jumps
2:31/2:35/2:49/2:45/3:24 = 14:06 total working time
Did all rds unbroken except for a few stumbles with the box jumps. Should increase PP to 75 lbs next time.
Judy – 32 lb PP, 7.5 box jumps – all rds broken (poor balance on box jumps)
2:31/2:45/3:05/3:01/2:49 – 14:11 total working time


65# push press
18″ box jump for first round and was broken. Tried 18″ for the second round only got 10 so dropped to 12″ for rounds 2 to 5.
Total Time: 19.18, work time 11.18.


1:38
2:15 (Broken box jumps 15-10)
1:59
2:16(Broken box jumps 21-4)
2:17(Broken box jumps 8-7-10)

Didn’t realize i like breaking my box jumps so much.

Had to double dip on the 9th and 14th on the pp on the fifth round, all others unbroken. All box jumps unbroken. Burpees sucked
Awesome workout. Thanks for the box jump tips Kris


Great effort tonight by everyone!!
