There it is

Posted by Reagen Jul 21 '22, 10:09

It was at least a 30" box jump.

During the launch or the landing? -- nm - Max Jul 21, 10:27 1
- Landing. Felt it the moment I started to straighten out. -- nm - Reagen Jul 21, 10:32
I have a scar on my shin when I got over ambitious and tried a workout without scaling the box jump from the 30" height - JD Jul 21, 10:24 8
- My scrape is just now healing from a couple weeks ago and I wasn't even doing a hard jump. I can do 20" no problem all the time. I can do 24" in - oblique Jul 21, 10:26 7
  - Woot! to the second line of the IM - JD Jul 21, 10:29 6
    - oh yeah, we did that once. Anything "gymnastic" is pretty challenging for me. I'm just now getting the hang of kip swings - oblique Jul 21, 10:31 5
      - Ooooo...prep for toes to bar. Another movement that I never completed and always scaled. - JD Jul 21, 10:34 4
        
        Took me almost a year just to be able to do a single pull up. I'm still only doing a few at a time. Our class work doesn't lend itself - oblique Jul 21, 10:37 3
        
        If your schedule allows as well as work out space, I'd recommend a few minutes after class to focus on pull ups - JD Jul 21, 10:45 2
        
        Thanks. Counter-intuitive but totally makes sense especially as I learned how much pull ups were back muscles and not arms. I'll see about giving - oblique Jul 21, 10:49 1
        
        8-) Though perhaps consider skipping the extra work before a workout that includes pull up type movements - JD Jul 21, 10:56
old people like you should know better -- nm - decline Jul 21, 10:12
yeah, but a 30" box jump for you is like a footstool for us mortals -- nm - oblique Jul 21, 10:10 1
- The 30" orientation of the standard cross fit box is just flat out wrong. 20" x 24" x 30"....that shouldn't be set up on the small surface - JD Jul 21, 10:37
