I think they call that an “8 pack.” In other news, hard for me to think of a more painful/evil workout.
Damn Dave. You lookin gooood! 🙂
Ladies – congrats on the pull-ups!
Oh no…
I did this WOD during the summer of 2008. My time was 33:56. I vowed never to do this workout again.
I hate going back on my word.

Congratulations Jennifer M. and Katie M., for getting your first pull-ups—really nice job.

Congratulations Ladies!
Way to go Jennifer and Katie!
crossfit with alexei in moscow, russia
i told alexei about this “kalsu” workout. his eyes widened for a moment, then he gave me the following — much easier — workout (he’s still assessing my abilities):
for time, 5 rounds:
5 pushups
10 back extensions
15 sumo deadlift high pulls (17 kg)
20 situps
10:35
Thank you to the 8am class for the encouragement down the home stretch this morning. That was awful.
Great job Jennifer and Katie!!
Thanks a lot to the 7am crew for cheering me on the last minutes of the workout today. This was a tough one and the cheering was very much appreciated.
Sid
I agree on both counts!
~ Jen
Ditto! The cheering and encouragement definitely helped me make it through the end of the workout! Thanks, 7am!
Congrats to Jennifer and Katie!
Dave, thanks for the reminder of what dedication to fitness and nutrition can get you.
