I didn't see Fight Gone Bad III for 9-27 on your page! Any interest in sending a contingent to Albany CrossFit for the event? https://www.kintera.org/faf/search/searchTeamPart.asp?ievent=275345&lis=1&kntae275345=E9AAB27909D74175A6B64F2D8E57BE46&supId=0&team=3137511&cj=Y Let us know if there's any interest!
Hey, I finished this up at 25:22 with only regular pull-ups. It was more than hard enough, especially if it was your fourth day of CF this week.
For everyone new, remember how important scalability and adaptability is in CF when starting. Concentrate on the mechanics of doing ONE rep correctly. Then get to where you can do multiples. Once you are there, then you are at the point to "go for time." Don't let perfect get in the way of good, but sound mechanics will allow you to avoid injury and hit the musles that are targeted by a certain exercise.
Have a good one.
So what does that mean? It is okay to go with bar dips instead of ring dips, or okay to use the gravitron machine, or okay to use 65# instead of 95#. It is BETTER. "Leave your ego at the door" as they say.
Don't start out trying to go with 5 full workouts in a week. Have a skills and drills day where you work on ring dips, clean and jerk form, handstand push-ups, double unders, or whatever you are weak at.

33:13, my pull ups were not to standard, good workout
26:55, weighted pull-ups made this difficult. I think next time we could take out the weight to increase the intensity. Thoughts welcome.
CF6-
I will run through it with the lunch crew w/o the weight and provide feedback
Going to do it this afternoon. Will not do weighted pull-ups either and will see how it shakes out.
37:26, scaled wgt (85lbs) on SDHP
I agree on scaling weighted pullups
Looking forward to running tomorrow!
