The mainpage of CrossFit directs new people here for help getting started. CF can be confusing enough for a newbie, we want to make it as easy as possible for them. We ask you to be courteous and thoughtful of the newbies. If they show up here for the first time and have to wade through 5-10 posts before we have a chance to scale for them, it can make it more difficult.
Hi there, newbie here. Could someone really quick explain the pack/puppies/buttercup nomenclature? My history is of a high level college swimmer that has been doing crosstraining (weights/running/biking) for the last 4 years.

Thanks!
They have no real significance aside from labelling the levels of fitness the workouts are aimed at.
Buttercups is the lowest, Puppies a bit more work and so on.
re Dog nomenclature: What Metric said and the significance is tied closely to Brand X culture personified by GardDawg’s avatar. We all want to be “Big Dawgs” and we have a whole slew of sayings built around it.
Woof!
Chasing the big dawgs.
etc.
Buttercups were named in reference to a CrossFit slogan: “Suck it up, Buttercup!”

13 rounds even 19:26
Knocked a little time off. My best PR was 13 rounds right at 20:00. The pushups after 10 rounds are just killin my time. Down to singles and double reps at the end.
ME weight in kg
56 / 61 / 63 (20% below current 5RM)
Worked mostly on form: good depth - way below parallel - and having weight squarely on the heels all the time. Forgot to keep an eye on whether butt is going back before going down or not, except on last round.
10min rest, then
Metcon
in 12 mins I did:
8 rounds of Cindy, then subbed 10 situps for the squats and did another 6 rounds of 5 Pull-ups, 10 Push-ups, 10 sit-ups
Left wrist still not ok, was giving me some grief on push-ups; squats were clearly not a good idea after doing BS - very slow!; have to work those sit-ups!
Jump rope singals 100 and 20 situps 5 rounds in own time
Jump Rope Practice DU & RUN
Cindy Pack workout
3 pullups
