WOD
6 Rounds
5 Dumbbell Clean and Jerks (45#/25#)
5 Muscle Ups
Also, it is unfortunately Imelda’s last week in town as she is leaving us to go back to San Diego =(
To celebrate, we are going to go on a pub crawl of Deep Ellum after Friday night’s classes. Everyone is welcome to attend, we will meet at the gym at 7:30 to plan our route. Hope to see you all there!
Look us up
Oooh tht must be the entertaining show the other morning that I missed! That hilarious! See y’all in a few
im sad, but did someone say pub crawl?
Is there a substitute for muscle ups?
Today we are doing 3 pull ups and 3 ring dips as the substitution
what’s a muscle up again?

It is a progression from a ring pull up into the top position of a ring dip.
Muscle-ups allow a Crossfitter to pretend that he or she is a ninja.
so as a beginner, I will not be able to do this successfully! ;^)
Nice
@kimtdallas, unless you already are a ninja…Are you? Are you?
LOL, I wish!
Ninjas get to skip the Elements classes and never have to do the running workouts. I am halfway there.
Wow. I like the huge smile on his face too. Like he’s so proud about that towel.
25:35/25# db’s/2 purp bands for pullups & ring dips.
This one is deceptively tough. I was ready to be done about round 3. 6 rounds is wicked.
I’m sad you’re leaving us Imelda! I hope you have fun at the pub crawl. Sadly, I’ll be missing out, since I’m going to San Antonio to visit family this weekend.
Is that 45# in each hand? For a total of 90#.
Love the picture today, it made me smile as I looked up the workout before dragging myself out of bed. I really could have used some more sleep before attempting this one. 25# with substitution (kipping pull-ups and purple band on dips) 21:50.
You know it’s a great gym when Eric can not only help you with your snatch but throw in some life lessons along the way. And I quote, “Wait til it gets to your pocket. You gotta be patient to improve your snatch. It’s also good in life too.” Thanks for the help in and out of the gym, Yoda.

Dayman – oh-oh-oh….defeater of the Nightman….
Why do I feel the urge to put on a spandex unitard now???
Great workout lunch crews.
11:26, rx
Dang. Muscles ups make that go by so much faster. Course I’m sure you were kicking ass and taking names, but still…
Stewart – please return all towels! WOD was really tough! 26:12 with 35# kettlebells no band on pull-ups but purple on last couple dips…and agree 3 rounds would have been hard 6 was a coach having a bad day when schedule was made
11:27 rx. Next time
I saw 11:26 on the clock but Koy said 27. Bleh
wow this was tough! 24:12 25# and blue bands on pull ups and dips… have to conquer the fear of heights before trying a muscle up haha.
Also just wanted to say that this summer has been so much fun meeting such a wonderful and supportive community at CFDE. Thanks for everything, hope to see ya’ll at the pub crawl.
hands are still worthless from monday, should make the muscle ups fun. see you guys at 6:30
Just found out that there are 4 spots left for the Olympic Weightlifting Certs we are hosting in September. It is a 2 day event instructed by Coach Burgener, one of the best Olympic Coaches in the world. He will be assisted by Josh Everett and other CrossFit beasts. This is an amazing opportunity to be able to go to a Cert at your own gym so if you were thinking about attending one eventually, grab one of these last spots

This is a very sad day- I have officially been blocked from the blog at work. It’s not quite as fun posting from my phone.
That’s sad that Imelda is leaving too. I hope to make it to the pub crawl if I am well by then. Can’t seem to shake this stupid sore throat.
best WOD picture ever.
15:32 / muscle ups and 40# db
Props to all of you who did 3 pullups and 3 dips. That made this particular workout a beast. Muscleups definitely made this one faster.
10:34, RX
This was tough…I’m still really uncoordinated with all the bands I have to use, but I finished in what seemed like forever 32.19. Still trying to figure out the kip on pullups too. Ha, guess I’ll just have to keep practicing!
