CrossFit Wichita Falls Programming

Justin Lascek posted a link to the CrossFit Wichita Falls programming in this thread over at the CF discussion boards. It sounds interesting, and I'm thinking about giving it a shot. I like the way it splits up the lifts and includes some short metcons. The split lifts help me get through a workout in my lunch hour, something I always had trouble doing on the novice SS programming. I suspect it will take some time to get worked into a routine, but I started today. The late fall/winter is my primary time to get to the gym for strength, as the kids' soccer is winding down and I'm better able to sustain a routine. I'm also going to Fort Bragg in a couple of weeks, and I'll have more time in the evenings to get things worked in.

Here's the program in a nutshell:
A-Day: 3 x 5 Back Squats; 3 x 5 Presses; Pull-ups
B-Day: 3 x 5 Power Cleans; Metcon
Rest Day
C-Day: 3 x 5 Back Squats; 3 x 5 Bench Presses; Pull-ups
D-Day: 1 x 5 Deadlifts; Metcon

Fight Gone Bad (kind of)

Basement WOD done along with KAD; since we don't have a rower or barbells, we just use the FGB format with the subbed exercises. KAD doesn't do the HP part of SDHPs, she just does the SD part. She also does sit-ups instead of KB swings - our one KB is too heavy for her to swing safely.

Buy-in: 3 rounds
10 squats
10 sit-ups
10 supermans
10 push-ups

WOD: "Fight Gone (sorta) Bad"

In this workout you move from each of five stations after a minute. This is a five-minute round from which a one-minute break is allowed before repeating. The clock does not reset or stop between exercises. On call of "rotate," the athlete must move to next station immediately for good score. One point is given for each rep.

Pistols, Sit-ups and Running

Done at the soccer park. Note to self - find a dry area to do sit-ups next time.

Buy-in: 2 rounds CFWU minus pull-ups

Run 800m (4:43)
15 pistols ea leg
25 sit-ups
12 pistols ea leg
25 sit-ups
9 pistols ea leg
25 sit-ups
Run 800 m (4:34)

Because the park has taken down the markers, the run distance was a guesstimate. I think it was a little too long. Pistols were assisted by holding onto a light pole. My ass will sore tomorrow, I can feel it already....
