Please hold questions and comments until Garddawg or BlueBugofJustice post the scaling, which usually includes links to exercise videos, common substitutions and other helpful information.
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.
I am so pumped about this WOD coming back around. This is one of my faves in a sadistic sort of way. I think it was my first foray into Pack scaling and is a benchmark workout for me.
On the jumping pull-ups. Should we decend like the end of a kipping pull up, or should we accentuate the negative (2-3 second. down or so)?
the video I’ve seen of the Filthy 50 actually had them doing ktes…that’s the route I’m taking.
Yeah, GD scales down from KTEs on all the scales but big dog, but I don’t see why if you can do a kte you couldn’t scale back up on the pack scaling (the terrible 35). I’ve done it that way before.

Yeah I did pack load last time with k2e and dbl unders(subbed tuck jumps). Wanted to be as close to the big dawgs as possible.
everybody on your team must finish their station before rotating to the next.

Notes: oh…my…god,
stuff gets a LOT harder at 7000 feet. I was gassed by the end of this, and my recovery took forever. I chowed down on a paleo kit and some fruit after i caught my breath, but jesus…i got worried there!
super fun though! lisa ray’s great. wish i had time to talk to her more, but my mom and i had a 13 hr drive to OK City. (sorry TP, I can’t visit this trip!)
I know this will sound like perhaps the most “how do I go as far as to do make anyone else?” question on here today, but is there a substitute for box jumps? Both I and my apartment complex’s gym lack a box. Before anyone gets any ideas, the stairs in this building are extremely narrow.

Suggestions?
First thing that i can suggest is tuck jumps thats my sub anyhow…..
1.21 mins faster than last time burpees were awfull after first 10… when i can whizz thorugh this in under 10 mins then I will move to pack… weak points burpees and lunges and conditioning.. which is getting better recovery a lot quicker which is a plus…
