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.

10 kg Dumbbells split clean, 15 reps
21 Jumping Pull-ups
Time: 10.07.
There’s an old guy in the gym who is incredibly talkative, with all sorts of stupid and irrelevant questions, and since I politely asked him a couple of weeks ago to hold his questions until I’m through with my WOD, he’s become apparently unfriendly. So today he occupied the only bar I could have used for beginner pull-ups and would not let me share it with him. I had to find another way of getting the WOD done, so I subbed jumping pull-ups for the beginner ones. These were rather unpleasant because I had to hold onto something very high above my head.
3 rds for time: 40# db split clean x 15
pullups x 21
TIME - 24:04 (rounds finished at 6:09, 15:02 and 24:04…with cleans in sets of 5 and pull-ups broken all over the place)
My grip started leaving me after the first round, still not fully back from the pull-up/dip WOD…I’m starting to get the kip up on pull-ups, but can’t get the push off into the next swing, so I was working that issue with this workout. Not a very fast time, but still a smoker, as always.
word of caution, Hotel venito in panama city will freak out if you don’t tell them what you are doing. Once I got a translator they were cool but once I threw my legs up for a handstand push up. THey freaked out. kinda funny.
