WOD 081105

"Electoral Math"

For time:

In any combination, perform the number of reps of the below exercises equal to the amount of electoral votes won by President-Elect Barack Hussein Obama. Example: If Obama wins 400 votes, 200 swings, 100 pull-ups and 100 push-ups equals 400.

2 Pood/1.5 Pood Kettlebell swings
Pull-Ups
Push-Ups

I'm suddenly hoping that number stops going up.

gah! you want us to do (a minimum of) 338 reps of EACH of those exercises? :-O

No a TOTAL of 349 or whatever the total ends up being.

Looks like 15 more reps needed for North Carolina.

What a sick and twisted workout. You're kind of making us wish he'd gotten less electoral votes............................................................................................................................................................NOT!

shit....
my "NOT" got cut off.
do over:
You're kind of making us wish he'd gotten less electoral votes (really really really long pause)
NOT!!!

MT

so... we're at 364?

I see 349, with MSNBC calling MO for Mccain and a squeaker in NC, so 360 is probably the most Obama can get, which would be fitting.

I like it!! This should be interesting after my uncontrollable celebrating last night!! OBAMA!!!!!!!!

Coach Glassman comments:

I want to congratulate President-elect Barak Obama and all of his supporters. While not a supporter through the campaign, I am now. He will be my President; he will be our President.

My concerns about policies that I still believe will serve to impoverish the poor and middle class now give way to excitement and enthusiasm for this great country to have chosen, overwhelmingly, to put a Black man in the lands highest office. For this we can all be very, very, proud.

48:56 RX. I was dying, but no way in hell was I going to DNF Obama's work out! I just reminded myself the whole time how lucky I was to be suffering. Although, I was looking forward to Max's cardio pilates classes just a little bit. :-)

36:56 RX
I felt a tinge nauseous toward the end. I'm going to have rice now.

42:00 with 1.5P KB. I was feeling pathetic throughout for some reason, and my pullup form was visibly bad, but hung in there and finished it.. Just for Obama ;-)

Bill 42:51 1.5 pood KB swings 6 rounds of 10 Pull-ups 20 Push-ups 30 KB swings + 4 KB swings
Matthew RX 27:41 and he can't even vote!!!!

37:15, 1.5 pood

5 sets of 10-20-40 +14 pushups. Upon reflection, this was an inordinate amount of KB swings.

Yep, and 40 at a time is way too much.

I have problems with bar pullups and only did 15 total. Did the rest with sets of 10 pushups and 10 swings.

31:28
12 kg swings
jumping pullups

no idea what the breakdown between exercises was - but it was - I just did one execise until i got tired and moved to the next one. it was probably about 20 jumping pullups for every 10-15 pushups and 10-15 swings (ish).
