So...what WOD should Court do for his birthday? I have come up with the following WOD in his honor.
"Wing Man"
For time:
Weighted Dips
Weighted Pullups
Weighted Box Jumps
Load equals your age
Reps equals your bodyweight
Partitioned in any way you want.

FYI, Todays WOD is a hot mess. Be prepared for some scaling.
Posted by: Tyler Durden at August 13, 2007 8:20 AM
Today is one day that I will head the warning of not doubling advice on doing 2 WODs!!
Happy Bday Court--get some!
Posted by: sarena at August 13, 2007 8:29 AM
I read the WOD this morning and thought "Who the hell pissed in that dude's Cheerios this morning?" WTF is that about? Got an acting class today so won't make it but I can't wait to read the comments on that bad boy.
Yeah Keith you're right-the WOD is a hot mess you're going to need to scale it. I think Prince Charming may actually ruin a his doo today lol.
Happy Birthday Court-you don't look a day over 50! Since he is the KB King I say his B-day WOD is this:
5 rounds of 5 TGU, 10 One-Arm KB Snatches, and 15 SHPDLs, 20 KB Swings
Posted by: Greg aka Batman at August 13, 2007 9:32 AM
Ouch. Just finished the WOD in 54:13
I had to jump a lot of those pullups but my Ls looked sweet at the top.
Posted by: Tyler Durden at August 13, 2007 10:06 AM
Maybe we should get mirrors at the Black Box so you can look at yourself doing "Sweet" Ls. LOL
Posted by: Greg aka Batman at August 13, 2007 10:32 AM
Happy Birthday, Court!
Posted by: Hari at August 13, 2007 10:36 AM
If it took you 54:13 Keith, I can only imagine the time for the rest of us mortals--even with scaling!
Would have loved to have watched you suffer...
Posted by: sarena at August 13, 2007 10:45 AM
Thinking my L-pullups are going to look pretty much like lower cases l's tonight.
Posted by: justin at August 13, 2007 11:06 AM
Don't I suffer enough when I watch you workout, Sarena?
Posted by: Tyler Durden at August 13, 2007 11:06 AM
LOL! That's a diff kind of suffer!
Posted by: sarena at August 13, 2007 11:09 AM
Lawling at "lower case l's", Justin!
150 L pullups, 150 GHD situps... This is the kind of workout that would have destroyed me for the rest of the week.
Let's just see what tomorrow brings.

Happy Birthday Court -- I hope you're spending the day doing whatever you want to do. That's what I do, and I never work on my birthday.
I'd be up for trapeze school -- I've always wanted to do it, and actually glad I hadn't tried before, because I know that I wouldn't have been able to hold onto that bar for very long!! I still need work, but at least can hold a minute now.

what are double unders? I can't find them in the excercise list.
Posted by: Paul at August 13, 2007 5:19 PM
Paul,
Whilst skipping a rope, the rope skippeth twice under thy risen feet.

--L-pullups with the plyo box
--switched from jumping rope to tuck jumps pretty early on
--did straight-leg situps because GHD situps felt weird for my lower back, plus i knew they'd give me a headache
--used the GHD for back extensions--man i was feeling it in my hammies!
happy birthday, court!
ALSO, i'm going to marisela's show, hope to see some of you there!
Posted by: Allison at August 13, 2007 5:52 PM
I am dreading this workout! I don't think I am even going to consider my time on this workout!
I will just be happy to finish!
Planning on going to see Marisela do her thang tonight!
Posted by: Roxanne at August 13, 2007 6:05 PM
happy birthday, court! that WOD keith has planned for you looks like a humdinger.
Posted by: dammit at August 13, 2007 6:11 PM
Happy BDay Court. I thought you were 30something.
Posted by: A2 at August 13, 2007 6:16 PM
he IS 30-something! they were just joking about his age...
Posted by: Allison at August 13, 2007 9:01 PM
as Rx'd, 42 min. tried to work on some pistols afterwards, and fell right on my ass. i had absolutely nothing left.
Posted by: dammit at August 13, 2007 10:08 PM
Brutal workout...47:19. Had to do assisted L-pullups. Did about 5 of them total. Im pretty sure the people looking at me on the subway home thought I was dying. They werent too far from the truth.
Posted by: Justin at August 13, 2007 10:52 PM
Good job everyone, I wished I could have done it but alas there are no pullup bars here at the hotel, I am so upset. :)
Posted by: alex at August 13, 2007 11:01 PM
As rx'd 52:44
Totally brutal today!! Did this in the 7am class with Ron. Serious wake up call. I was psyched for double unders and I couldn't get a rhythm going. The most I got was 7 straight.The body and mind just weren't functioning. Don't do a workout like this with no sleep.
I think I also went a bit overboard yesterday with Grace and the silly circus tricks we did before O-lifing class. Ahh live and learn. Way to gut it out Ron. Awesome time Dammit and Justin!
