Thursday - 07242008 - Challenge WOD #5



In honor of Pioneer Day, here is Thursday's WOD. Sorry for the repetition on the sandbag, it's the only thing I could think of that the Pioneers would be doing that would have lots of weight in it.

"Pioneer Days"

3 Rounds For Time
7 x 100lb Sandbag Thrusters
24 x 100lb Sandbag Deadlifts
45lb OH Lunges - 18 Steps
47m Uneven Farmer's Walk (44/53lb KB in one hand; 70lb KB in other; switch @ 23.5m)

Enjoy.

Pure luck. Just went to YouTube and typed in Come Come Ye Saints. First one I found was of some BYU-I students doing a rock version, then I clicked on this version for fun and got lucky. I tried to find more information on the guy but couldn't locate any. I agree, though, a beautiful version.

Just rec'd this message, for those interested:

"For the kind words re: CCYS. I am working on a full-band version that is 80% done and will be released 'God Willing' in the next couple of months. I will keep your message handy here and send you a note when it's finished. I'll try to post an mp3 someplace in the next couple of days if you'd like this acoustic version.

again thanks and be in touch!

i'm going after it sometime today.

i finally made a real sandbag last night. i had been using a 100lb punching bag, but it doesn't work very well for anything overhead.

Tom said...

How do you use yourself for a sandbag? Honestly, you couldn't be more than a 100lb sandbag yourself!
