CrossFit WOD: Drop-in on a nearby CrossFit gym

A little bit of history - while doing my first CrossFit workout ever, I met a guy named Doug Price. He was a super guy and we got to talking about CrossFit and other stuff after the workout was finished. He said he competed in the Sectionals in years past and I asked him a ton of questions about it. Came to find out later on that he was blowing the water out of workouts, like the coveted Fran. He did Fran in 2:19 I believe. This made me look up to the guy. He knew what he was doing and was doing it right.

After our initial workout, I didn't see him much due to him having a baby. In the meantime, he was preparing himself to start up his own box called CrossFit Utility, which started up on February 1st of 2010.

We kept in contact and talked a bit at the Arnold Classic CrossFit Sectional back in early March. I heard about his gym and told him we have to workout sometime. So I contacted him on Friday of this week because I knew I wasn't going to be able to make our Saturday workout at my home gym. He was open Sunday and I told him I'd stop by.

The workout was amazing. We warmed up with 1 minute of double-unders and completed a 5x3 of snatch balances and OH squats. The WOD was as follows:

100 ft lunges (45 lb dumbbells in each hand)
25 GHD sit-ups
25 GHD back extensions

x 4 rounds for time.

My time was 14:04. I was surprised with that time. This workout DESTROYED my legs. It was way harder than I thought - the lunges destroyed my legs so bad, I could barely do GHD situps. Doing the GHD sit-ups was also super challenging. I've never done as many or as fast before, nor in a WOD. Loved it.

After this, I completed my 200 pushups while he coached another person on the CrossFit Total WOD, which we just did as well at my box.

Then, as if that wasn't enough, I did following Sunday workout from the mainsite with Doug:

In reps of 21-15-9
Squat snatch (95 lbs)
Chest-to-bar pullups

for time!

My time was 8:30. I am so exhausted, but I thank Doug for pushing me and helping me. A great guy with a great gym. I hope he does well!

Best,
