So I am starting to realize that I'm just not a stud. I was hoping I could get through most of these workouts with little to no modifications but I'm just not that cool. My last two workouts I realized that if I try to always do the recommended weights I am just going to hurt myself. It's a shot to the ego but I will have to drop down in some of the weights.
Monday I did the 2012 Reebok Crossfit Games Chipper. It consisted of for time:
155lb Overhead Squat, 10 reps
10 Box Jump Overs, 24" Box
135lb Thruster, 10 reps
205lb Power Clean, 10 reps
10 Toes To Bar
10 Burpee Muscle Ups
10 Toes To Bar
205lb Power Clean, 10 reps
135lb Thruster, 10 reps
10 Box Jump Overs, 24" Box
155lb Overhead Squat, 10 reps
I had to modify just about all the weight. I did 55lbs for the overhead squat. I'm still just terrible at them but getting better I think. I made it through the thrusters the first time through but on the way back had to drop down to 115lbs. Power Cleans I did 155lbs but think I could have done alittle more with this one. And finally I couldn't do the burpee muscles ups so I just did burpee pull ups and did 10 of them.
Overall a pretty brutal workout. I finished in 18:18.

Tuesday I was suppose to have a rest day but I decided to do the next workout and take Wednesday off since it worked better for my schedule. This was the Ship workout. Pretty brutal. It was 9 rounds for time of 185lb Squat Cleans, 7 reps and 8 burpee box jumps on a 36" box. I dropped down to 115lbs on the squat clean. I usually do power cleans so I wanted to work on my form with this one. 115lbs was plenty though. I unfortunately only made it through 7 rounds in 20 minutes. I had my 5 month old son with me who I was hoping would nap while I worked out but it didn't happen. He started to getting fussy so that pretty much ended my workout. Still felt wrecked after 7 rounds though.
