Max Thrusters
Using your Fran weight, complete as many consecutive thrusters as possible. Once the bar leaves the ground, your set begins. You may not rest the bar in any other position aside from the clean rack position. Your set will terminate if the bar touches the ground, is rested on your back, or drops lower than the clean rack position (i.e., the hang position).
Post load and total amount of reps to comments.

Hello people! I have a question for the morning people or anyone else who may knowthe answer. I am about to dothis wod at my brothers gym and just want to make sure thati do this wod correctly. The only 'rest' position would be in the rack position and the hang position, correct? Anything else would be wrong, right? Also is there a dessert for wod? Thanks guys.......
Thanks guys. Will let you know how it goes. The rest of my wod will be fulfilling the role as aunt titoria, as my nephew Brooks callsme.
14 @ 95, 22 @ 75. Just didn't have it in me this morning. No wonder I hate Fran so much!
On a positive note - kettlebell juggling! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Uj94oEZosc
Looks like 2 pood to me but I can't tell... any experts?
can we work on these this sunday: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AKpkFcAGCX8
Casey - We will be closed this weekend.
Scott - you're probably right, I dunno what it's made out of but size-wise it looks comparable to the one at the gym.
Bobby - your childhood must've sucked. I think it even says that in the instructions... they're boxed up in my garage somewhere...
I am so ready for this WOD today - Today is an awful work day - I so need the stress relief and suck factor right now....
i'm convinced that we have some athletes that could handle ninja warrior all the way to or even through the final stage
Update on the kettlebell juggling - looks like it may not be so heavy after all. From my buddy Gant in Wichita Falls (who has done KB swings with a 140lb one!) :
"GS KBs are all the same size (volume), regardless of weight. I'd think it's between 8-12 kgs judging by how easy it's rotating. Regardless, it's cool work."
Erica - 57 is legit no matter what but it helps to put the weight you used....
Erica - what weight?
GREAT JOB CARRIE!!!!!!
Jacquelyn, I was thinking more along the lines of something like this:

Cf is like fight club. Was doing our wod and I looked over and there was a trainer standing by me talking a guy through Eva. We all started talking. It was nice to meet some new cfers.
Rx'd 43. It hard to do this on your own
Holly Heck Victoria - NICE JOB!!! Thanks for setting the bar so high, I will try for this!!! Lord knows I have enough negative energy today to burn off!!! LOL!
Just for the record, I am so glad our gym is not filled with a bunch of "TG's"...

Nice Casey... Thanks I needed that laugh... I hate those guys that think because they have huge biceps they are in shape... they need to come to our box and be shown up by the girls... LOL!
Shanna CFOKC - Hope you will come back again - it was great working out with you yesterday.
I know your sinister plan max t. I am not going for it
Mel- you got this one. Once you think it's time to stop take a deep breathe and get three or four more.
Casey- I had to stop after I read the guido from the jersey shore. That might be my future boyfriend that I will meet when visiting the Shor :)
35 @ 45#
I found it was much easier to rest with the bar above your head than in the rack position.
Awesome job tonight, Mel!! :)
20 reps. weak.
on a more positive note, here's my paleo dinner: http://twitpic.com/8wpkf
grass fed steak cooked rare, steamed broccoli, red bell pepper and a carrot. For dessert, a peach and some almonds.
Kelly - when everything is good and ready I'm sure thrusters are great at inducing labor!
