Baptism of Fire

My training partner decided yesterday was the day he would brave his first visit to Crossfit Britannia and my goodness, what a day to arrive.
The crossfit main site declared a "rest day" meaning only one thing.... they could be as evil as they wanted and make us do anything they wanted!


5 rounds of:
50 Jump - touch 18" above tip toe reach
40 Squats
30 Sit ups
20 Press ups
10 Pull ups.


At first Rob thought it as just one round. Oh no, you will learn quickly that this is not how this works around here :P


In the end me and rob both managed 35min doing a scaled version of
4 rounds of:
35 Jump - touch
30 Squat
25 Sit ups
15 Push ups
10 Pull ups with the green band


Quotes of the day include:


Michelle: So Rob, do you mind pain?
Rob: No?
Jenni + Me: WRONG ANSWER!!!


Cycling downhill out of Port Purbrook, looking at the stunning view.
Rob: Do you know, I feel like I have just gotten out of prison. Freedom!


And yet Rob has said he will be returning with me on my next trip :)


I am definitely in DOMS hell today. My calves are on fire, my ribs feel like they have been pulled apart and my abs hurt when I laugh. It was obviously one hell of a good WOD... yes I am insane :P
