WOD for 1.13.2010

OK. After looking at the CF mainsite, bodyweight bench press sounded good, but after all the pullups yesterday, we weren't looking to do more today. So, we started off with the concept of "Lynne" and initually used box jumps at 2x your bench rep count, no less than 10. Making it a little lower effort day. As we (my buddy Rich and I) were resting after out 2nd set, we decided to trade the box jumps for broad jumps, since broad jumps had come up recently in another mainsite WOD. So, we did 10 broad jumps immediately after the bench press set.

I typically don't flat bench due to some lingering shouler issue, so I usually do incline for this as it puts little strain on whatever is wrong with my shoulder. And, since we are at a corporate GLOBO, I don't have a free standing incline bench, I have to use a Smith Machine. In any case, here's the numbers....

BW = 245lb (off season ...lol)
Reps 17,9,7,8,8

The broad jumps were fun, more to it than meets the eye - if you really make sure to plant and explode and then extend your torso for max distance - it's a great movement, works lots of muscles.

Adios.
