HARDEST WOD.

By

The Box Jump Crew!

What’s the hardest workout that you’ve ever done?  We get this question from time to time.  For me it was a Dawn Forrester Master’s Class creation called “Murph Gone Bad”.  It was the following for time: 1 Mile Run, 100 Calories on the Rower, 100 Wall Balls, 100 Kettle Bell Sumo Deadlift High Pulls, 100 Box Jumps, 100 Push Presses (65#) and 1 Mile Run.  It took me 57:42 and when I came back into the gym Andy asked me if a car had hit me during the last mile.  A car had most certainly not made contact with me, but I’m pretty damn sure someone had dropped a grand piano on my back somewhere during the wall balls.  The kicker – I had my first triathalon the very next day (intelligence is highly over rated).  Post your hardest WOD to comments.

Today’s Workout:

I’ve definitely had those WODs where I’m on the ground gasping for air….wondering when it’s safe to woozily drive my car home from the gym after…or should I just sleep in the back room until the 6am class discovers me. But, personally, some of the hardest WODs for me are the silent-but-deadly ones that sneak up on you two days later.

‘Squat Ladder’ wins the prize for sneakiest post-WOD-pain.
Couldn’t walk for three days. But, complete “awesome-ness”

I have a few:

1. Brought me to tears: 3 rounds- 30 OHS (65#), 100 DU’s

2. Metally hard to get through: Barbara

3. Worst pain days after a wod: Murph

Hardest WOD is today’s, but tomorrow’s will be harder. Always.

The Claw

I agree with Claw! However if I had to assign a name to the hardest WOD yet, I would say the Mini-Sectionals WOD we did, had me begging for mercy during it, and in pain at least a week after. Murph has to be the scariest looking one by far (however I have yet to complete this beast).

I have only done one hero workout. Murph. But I had to use a straw to eat soup for two days.

Hardest personal WON (work out of the night) filling and stacking 200 sand bags when the rains came to SB a few years ago…similar to Murph.

100 body weight back-squats for time. Period.

Nancy – one of the only times I seriously considered quitting a workout.

Barbara – mental slog.
