Complete. No bike/legs scale: 13cal. Ski//205lb. power clean: 3 singles per round, dropped on pads so took some time/energy to roll them off.

Body weight over 190 today. First round did 200m ski/15 cal but that took a little over 40s so I dropped it to 13cal/round. That got really shitty about 15-16m in…dizzy. Tried to get :20 tests on each element but by halfway that was dwindling, first on the ski, then on the cleans too as muscular stamina also went. By the end I was down to @10s rest before the next minute, but managed to finish the last ski in :41

Completed with women’s Rx numbers (but subbed row for bike) – 12 cal and 155 lb squat clean.


I may have scaled down too far here – did not get the same stimulus as the folks in the video – but this was a good dose.  I may try this at 185/13 sometime in the future – that would be a much tougher test.  Quick singles on squat cleans (20 sec) and went at about 1400-1500 on the row (30 sec).

Completed 12/16 at the Y. No echo, used an elliptical for the Calories. Scaled weight to 155 and Cals to 13. Warmed up to 185 but just thought that'd be too hard for the 30 minutes.


sets of cleans in about 15s or less, calories done at 45s pretty consistently. 155 was probably about right to avoid any injury, but was able to maintain unbroken sets every round.


anyone doing this rxd is a freak, even the intermediate weight is nuts!

Scaled/subbed to 185 lbs and 12 cal row


minutes 20-26 were mentally most difficult as expected. Felt good overall. Another two calories per round would have made a big difference!

Scaled to Beginner weight and calories (row)

30 minutes, odds SC, evens Row

3 SC 75# (touch and go)

12 cal (C2, drag 7)


Lower back has been out of sorts the last couple of days, so decided to err on the side of caution while still getting something in. SC was not challenging, but I focused very hard on technique with a short pause at the bottom. I pushed harder on the rows, making sure I hit 12 cal in 25sec or less each row. Beginner weight/cal scale still gave a good dose.

My air bike is very uncalibrated, fresh 40sec was 8 calories which may be near Rx....🤷‍♂️. Aimed for ~7cal each round.

Intermediate, deep 185lbs squat cleans were mostly touch-n-go using steel plates(no drop). This spiked the heart rate of course.


Son(15)

Same conditions @125lbs around 5-6 cals/round. He did not touch-n-go

120lbs cleans, 12 calorie ROW

completed all 30 rounds with 20+ secs rest

fastest row: #1 = 28.2

slowest row: #11 = 36.5


Probably could have done 13~14 cal but the bar felt just right

I’m not sure which is worse an end to modern civilization/CrossFit or doing that work out?


Did #135 finished with one second to spare. I had two lift fails midway through. Anyone doing this RX is my hero!

I am a beginner so I don't know if I can do this workout, it is too difficult for me. But I keep it as a goal.
