New Stuff and Filthy Fifty

Good morning! Today I've added a new design to the CafePress store. Right now you can get it on a t shirt or a tank top.


I know I, as an unassuming looking young woman, enjoy surprising people with my capacity to deadlift and squat. Defying expectations is fun! Also, surprise! Lift heavy! Not She-Hulk!

My head is recovering from the other day's mishap with the thruster bar. I did the Filthy Fifty last night and sustained no injuries. Here's the list to refresh your memory:

50 box jumps (24"/18")
50 jumping pull-ups
50 kettlebell swings (35#/25#)
50 walking lunges
50 knees to elbows
50 push press (45#/35#)
50 back extensions (our box did good mornings instead)
50 wall ball shots (20#/14#)
50 burpees
50 double unders
collapse

I kind of like chippers, even ones that take forever. There's just something nice about burning through sets knowing you don't have to do any more box jumps after these are done. The burpees set, well, you'll never hear me say a word against that most wonderful of exercises. Fifty burpees at the end of a hard WOD? Yes please!

What's your favorite benchmark WOD?
