To track my progress easily and in case I ever lose my book.
Can’t wait to try this WOD! 😀 Been wanting to do this one for a while… Here’s hoping for some solid daytime snoozes…
Amanda
I post so I have a quick & easy way to see my results next time we do a wod. It’s too easy – Kevin puts a link to last time we did it. There’s no messing around with a book looking for it, just click the link.
Everyone should be doing it! And not just for the reason stated above. And it’s not just for the ‘seasoned’ Crossfitters…the new folks should be posting as well. This is a community we have at CFM and people want to celebrate your successes with you. Every day that you complete a wod is a success and you should be proud and this forum allows and encourages you to ‘shout it from the rooftops’ to an audience who is excited about your progress. So if you’re not posting yet, do it!
Agreed. Its not just for seasoned members, we want the newer members to share their successes, so we can congratulate and support them every step of the way. We’ve all been there.
Blake
I regret not posting as soon as I started CrossFit. Being able to look back and capture not only your progress but your thoughts, challenges, successes and of course my “notes to FUTURE ME” are immensely valuable.
Amanda
I’m glad you posted this about regretting it, I hope that the folks that are reading and not posting will start doing it.
And I love reading your ‘notes to future you’ 🙂
Jeff L
I agree with Blake, I did not post at first and I regret it now. Hard to remember what you did when you started if you switched journals.
Jeff L
I regret not posting mine from the start as well. Hard to remember what you did before if you’ve switched to a new journal.
Blake
QOD:
I post because as stated above it makes it very easy to see how I did on a WOD last time, and to provide a backup for losing/forgetting my book.
I also post because I am already here reading others results…not as much for comparison but because I genuinely enjoy seeing their progress and encouraging them.
Maria
QOD: I post to track my WODs and progress. It’s a great way to share your achievements and the support from others is incredible. It’s fun reading the comments, especially on days when it’s a crazy one…like today for example. Looking forward to trying this one!

I chose to repeat the Power Output WOD from earlier this week, with a little bit more weight, because I am a nerd and I like to conduct physics experiments. Lol!
15 rounds of: DL, Clean, Clean & Jerk
Last time: 45#, 1:34 = 180ft-lb/sec
This time: 55#, 1:49 = 171ft-lb/sec!
I was super surprised because I felt like I worked harder today!
Today was my last day at CF Moncton – headed off to Woodstock for my next rotation. It was awesome getting to know you guys and I’m sure I will see you all again! Thanks for all the great times… keep on kicking ass, guys! 🙂
PS: Nice work this morning everyone… especially Crazy Gillyon for doing GI Jane rx’d!
Gillyon
Thanks! Awesome work on the butterfly pull-ups!!
Ron
Good luck Shannon, we will miss that great smile and strong workout mode you bring to the box.
Michelle
Good luck Shannon! Come and visit!!
Kevin
Sorry I missed your last workout. It was awesome to have you at CFM. I hope to see you at the competition in January.
Took Trents tip on the 35# bar for easier hook grip and I find it help me go faster. Took 2 small breaks towards the end when I was gassed, could shave off about 5 seconds if I didn’t let go of the bar.
lol. first thing I did was look in my wallet. ohh good I have cash.
Amanda
I remember that one, it was a good one – good choice!
Ron
Awesome intensity.
Michelle
QOD: IT took a while before I started posting. Like others, I post because it is easy to refer back, but mostly it’s because I’m addicted to the site and am on it a lot anyways. Like Maria said, it’s fun to see what everybody is saying about a wod, and the support is great!
QOD:
– easy and convenient to check previous dates with same WOD
– great backup if you lose your WODbook or it gets destroyed
– nice way to compare score with others around your level and share successes
Ron
Hey Crossfitters, today was my last morning coaching sessions. I will be starting a new job on Monday and unfortunately the hours does not permit me to coach at daybreak. I just want to say thank you to everyone for welcoming me as a new trainer, and hope I made a difference in your lives because it did for mine, I looked forward to 6am classes and always left with a bigger smile than when I came in. The good news….. I get to do it all in the evenings now.
Gillyon
Loved having you coach in the morning. You have a great eye and your positive feedback is greatly appreciated!
Joanna
I’ll miss getting to sleep in some mornings but more important, CONGRATS on the new job! Happy for you.
Congrats on the job Ron. I don’t get to too many evening classes, so I guess I’ll see you on Saturdays. It’s was great having you at our 6:00 a.m. classes.
Marcel
We’ll welcome you to the evening classes, it’ll be great having you around. Congratulations on the new position and best of luck!

Much better compared to the 121 on Tuesday. I can say my form was that great though.
QOD:
Easy to refer back on same WODs.
Make notes and share thoughts on WOD.
So whole would can see my results. Its an easy way to show friends and family what we do.
Correction: I can’t say my form was that great though.
Ron
Wow, that’s more than double the power output than your first attempt on Tuesday. Sweeeeet.
Gabriel
Nice!!
Lora
WOW Trent! Huge increase in power! Congrats!
Chantal L.
QOD – easier to track previous times in a wod plus it motivates me to get in the gym when I see that I’ve done the WOD before or makes me regret not going to the gym if I alredy done it. It also helps me build my change for change list when I see I’ve done a WOD before but missed it the second time around!
WOD
7 mins AMRAP
1-2-3-4-5…etc
Hand power clean (55lbs)

8 rounds + 4 cleans.
Forarms were dead after this! Thanks Rob for the tips. It felt akward doing those cleans lol. Will need to work on my cleans a little more and try this one again. I can definately improve this score by a lot!
QOD : I like posting my results. Not so much to keep track (as I never did the same WOD twice yet…) but mainly to just share. I enjoy reading other peoples results and I like seeing other members comments on my results (the cheers and the tips).
Agreed! Getting feedback from others, reading tips (and thinking, “when I get to that point, I’ll have to remember what so-and-so said about it”), etc. is great!
It’s also a time when I can sort of ‘cheer’ for others, because I am usually the last one to finish the WOD and therefore don’t have anyone left to cheer for, when I’m done. 😛
Maddy
Nothing wrong with cheering for yourself! Woooohooo Robyn!

Awesome job! You beat your expectations as usual.
Heidi
Excellent work Maria. Congrats on: 1) tackling this WOD (I didn’t even consider it, given it being change for change day) and 2) Finishing it.

Thanks Heidi! I was contemplating my sanity at work today lol

Been wanting to try this wod ever since i got my first pull up 3 years ago 🙂 Wow this was mentally tough. When i got to 50 i couldnt tell if i was happy to be halfway done or horrified that had another 50 to do.
QOD: i post for a few reasons. Like other people, it’s an easy way to keep a record and look bak at previous results. I also like to compare with other people i consider close to my level. I assume other people think the same way. So if nobody posted, it would be very difficult to compete…er…I mean…compare with others.
Gabriel
Great jon Patrick!
Gabriel
*job
Patrick
I do have a great jon thank you
Eric N.
LMAO ! I felt the EXACT same way at 50. I even told Corinna about it after!
Great job on this one !
Maria
I know! When Rob called out we were at the half way mark for time I had very mixed emotions lol
Shane Hayes
I like posting to track my wod’s, and compare with others also I like the comments from the seasoned members on how I did and the great criticism. It helps me get motivated to try for better form, push harder so on and so on…

WOD: GI Jane, scaled to a couple inches above my reach. (I think the same height as my usual pull-up bar) Got 90 reps in 15 minutes and I’m very happy about that!! Happy to finally do this one.
Really fun night at the gym, got to stick around and chat and talk wod strategy between classes. Lots of great energy tonight, we have awesome members. 🙂

Great result on the WOD, Amanda. Scaled or not…GI Jane is badass!

congrats to all that finished this WOD Rx today
QOD: I post my results online as my results are backed up and it’s easy to lookup your previous results to measure your progress and calculate your PRs. It’s also fun to look at other members’ results to compare yourself and to see everyone’s progress.
QOD: Because I was told to post my results when I started and I always do what I am told. lol I actually like to see the comparison from last time at a glance. I also like the positive feedback and encouragement, especially on the not so great days when you need a little boost.
Today: Mob, WU x 2 (no pull-ups)

WOD: Repeated Nov 17th, 100 Strokes for Distance
Score: 1027m
I was 140m short of my previous attempt at this WOD, however, my count was dead on this time. The reason I repeated this one was I was not confident in my stroke count the first time.

Good point about the positive comments. I like to see them also, especially on a WOD where I felt I was lacking. I like giving them too!

You did VERY well on the row, Melanie! I’m happy you chose to try something new for your WOD.
Glad I could help out with the OHS, too. It is a challenging movement. I did OHS to box (and with little or no weight) when I first started. You are making great progress.

nice work E.. was playing catch up to you after the first ten and you pulled away after 80.. great work..
impressive score there yourself.. nice to see you rebounding the box jumps 🙂 (jealous here! )
and good total on the challenge, know you love you some wallballs.. two minutes of them though?
Double unders were brutal. First 2 rounds struggled hard & ended up switching out to singles. Stuck with them (painfully) in rounds 3 – 5. Much tougher WOD than I expected. Had the Fran cough for most of the morning. You killed this Michelle….left me in your dust!
QOD: I post for easy future reference. It’s also fun to see how I’m stacking up (or not) to others.

was a bit tentative to start this one but found a way to drop off the bar and land softly to ease the jarring on the knees.. was able to get the jump to the bar without looking up after the first 40 or so which helped with momentum.. Fun wod..
QOD: post and cheerleading is part of our nightly ritual, and nice to look back and see results of wods you’ve already done, as i’ve been around for a year its just starting to see them on a regular basis and was glad I started posting early in my xfit career.
Lora
Great score on the WOD Jeff! Happy you found a way to “land” that didn’t bother your knees! 🙂
Great job Jeff! You had me a little concerned with your knees so I’m glad you were able to find a good way to land as to not jar them!

I usually post when i’m still on a ‘high’ from the WOD… Once it’s done I don’t want the 🙂 feeling to end. I can imagine that once i’ve been doing this long enough to see the same WOD’s come back i’ll really appreciate the posts with my previous scores.

I also like reading every one else’s results when I see what other people are posting i like to make a target for my self so I have something to try and work towards.
Maddy
That’s friggin awesome! You should be proud of yourself!
You did amazing tonight man!!! Really impressed with your determination. Keep it up!

Thanks I have been really happy with this entire month of work outs. Crossed a few things off the crossfit list.

Awesome dude! What weight on the bar?
Forgot to post that, 95#.
Took Trents tip on the 35# bar for easier hook grip and I find it help me go faster. Took 2 small breaks towards the end when I was gassed, could shave off about 5 seconds if I didn’t let go of the bar.

That was awesome to watch, you left nothing in the tank. GREAT POWER SCORE!

Superb job Jeff!

Missed the first time so this was first attempt.
This may post multiple times since my computer doesn’t show it posted.

Hey Crossfitters, today was my last morning coaching sessions. I will be starting a new job on Monday and unfortunately the hours does not permit me to coach at daybreak. I just want to say thank you to everyone for welcoming me as a new trainer, and hope I made a difference in your lives because it did for mine, I looked forward to 6am classes and always left with a bigger smile than when I came in. The good news….. I get to do it all in the evenings now.
Loved having you coach in the morning. You have a great eye and your positive feedback is greatly appreciated!
I’ll miss getting to sleep in some mornings but more important, CONGRATS on the new job! Happy for you.
Does this mean that The French Connection is taking over 5h45? 🙂

It was great having you in the AM but I’m sure I’ll be in some of your PM classes. I hope all goes well with the new job.

Question to Coach: Can we use mix grip for G.I. Jane burpee pullup?
Coach Patrick says yes…
Although he’s not coaching today so that may be irrelevant, but he mentioned it last night.
Any grip.
And can also be scaled to jumping pull-ups for those without strict/kipping pullups.
pull up grip, chin up grip, mixed grip, all good. I recommend mixed grip.
Thanks Guys, tried mix grip in warm up, was OK till I had to jump a foot above reach, was better with regular grip! Just need practice with this!

QOD : I like posting my results. Not so much to keep track (as I never did the same WOD twice yet…) but mainly to just share. I enjoy reading other peoples results and I like seeing other members comments on my results (the cheers and the tips).
Agreed! Getting feedback from others, reading tips (and thinking, “when I get to that point, I’ll have to remember what so-and-so said about it”), etc. is great!
It’s also a time when I can sort of ‘cheer’ for others, because I am usually the last one to finish the WOD and therefore don’t have anyone left to cheer for, when I’m done. 😛
Nothing wrong with cheering for yourself! Woooohooo Robyn!

Super happy to finish this, my goal was 80 🙂
This was tough, just focused on a steady pace throughout and getting up on that bar. Amanda you did awesome, thanks for the motivation on this one! Good job everybody!
Awesome job! You beat your expectations as usual.
Excellent work Maria. Congrats on: 1) tackling this WOD (I didn’t even consider it, given it being change for change day) and 2) Finishing it.
Thanks Heidi! I was contemplating my sanity at work today lol
EXCELLENT WORK! Congrats! You should be very proud of this one 🙂

“G.I. Jane” Rx’d: 13:06
Been wanting to try this wod ever since i got my first pull up 3 years ago 🙂 Wow this was mentally tough. When i got to 50 i couldnt tell if i was happy to be halfway done or horrified that had another 50 to do.
QOD: i post for a few reasons. Like other people, it’s an easy way to keep a record and look bak at previous results. I also like to compare with other people i consider close to my level. I assume other people think the same way. So if nobody posted, it would be very difficult to compete…er…I mean…compare with others.
Great jon Patrick!
*job
I do have a great jon thank you
LMAO ! I felt the EXACT same way at 50. I even told Corinna about it after!
Great job on this one !
I know! When Rob called out we were at the half way mark for time I had very mixed emotions lol
I like posting to track my wod’s, and compare with others also I like the comments from the seasoned members on how I did and the great criticism. It helps me get motivated to try for better form, push harder so on and so on…
Strength: Split jerks
3x 45

Thanks for the help, Rob!!
WOD: GI Jane, scaled to a couple inches above my reach. (I think the same height as my usual pull-up bar) Got 90 reps in 15 minutes and I’m very happy about that!! Happy to finally do this one.
Really fun night at the gym, got to stick around and chat and talk wod strategy between classes. Lots of great energy tonight, we have awesome members. 🙂
Great result on the WOD, Amanda. Scaled or not…GI Jane is badass!

QOD: I post my results online as my results are backed up and it’s easy to lookup your previous results to measure your progress and calculate your PRs. It’s also fun to look at other members’ results to compare yourself and to see everyone’s progress.
Great job Frank! Way to go on the Challenge!
Nice job tonight frank!
QOD: Because I was told to post my results when I started and I always do what I am told. lol I actually like to see the comparison from last time at a glance. I also like the positive feedback and encouragement, especially on the not so great days when you need a little boost.

WOD: Repeated Nov 17th, 100 Strokes for Distance
Score: 1027m
I was 140m short of my previous attempt at this WOD, however, my count was dead on this time. The reason I repeated this one was I was not confident in my stroke count the first time.
Good point about the positive comments. I like to see them also, especially on a WOD where I felt I was lacking. I like giving them too!

Great score!
You did VERY well on the row, Melanie! I’m happy you chose to try something new for your WOD.
Glad I could help out with the OHS, too. It is a challenging movement. I did OHS to box (and with little or no weight) when I first started. You are making great progress.

Agreed! Your box jumps are solid. I need to learn to rebound like that!

Double unders were brutal. First 2 rounds struggled hard & ended up switching out to singles. Stuck with them (painfully) in rounds 3 – 5. Much tougher WOD than I expected. Had the Fran cough for most of the morning. You killed this Michelle….left me in your dust!
QOD: I post for easy future reference. It’s also fun to see how I’m stacking up (or not) to others.

wod GI Jane
12:16
was a bit tentative to start this one but found a way to drop off the bar and land softly to ease the jarring on the knees.. was able to get the jump to the bar without looking up after the first 40 or so which helped with momentum.. Fun wod..
QOD: post and cheerleading is part of our nightly ritual, and nice to look back and see results of wods you’ve already done, as i’ve been around for a year its just starting to see them on a regular basis and was glad I started posting early in my xfit career.
Great score on the WOD Jeff! Happy you found a way to “land” that didn’t bother your knees! 🙂
Great job Jeff! You had me a little concerned with your knees so I’m glad you were able to find a good way to land as to not jar them!

I usually post when i’m still on a ‘high’ from the WOD… Once it’s done I don’t want the 🙂 feeling to end. I can imagine that once i’ve been doing this long enough to see the same WOD’s come back i’ll really appreciate the posts with my previous scores.

Haha! You know you’re working hard when the blood doesn’t make it to the brain and the counting stops.
Great job!! Any amount burpee pullups is an accomplishment in itself!

Qod : I like having a back up and it’s easy to compare when the work out comes back around since you post the link to it.
I also like reading every one else’s results when I see what other people are posting i like to make a target for my self so I have something to try and work towards.
That’s friggin awesome! You should be proud of yourself!
You did amazing tonight man!!! Really impressed with your determination. Keep it up!
Thanks I have been really happy with this entire month of work outs. Crossed a few things off the crossfit list.
Jeremy, I love how focused you are on your goals. You’re making incredible progress.
Thanks!

Other than my 1st round of 5 unbroken DUs, the Doubles were crap. Glad to work on them in a WOD and will keep working on them. HSPU turned out to be not so goat-ish after all.
