''Deck Of Cards WOD'' (07.30.2012)

The CrossFit Football/Power Athlete Cert was UNREAL! 
Chase and I had an absolute blast and came away with an amazing depth of new knowledge and perspective... Thank you to all the coaches and athletes who's enthusiasm and dedication to perfection made this a truly spectacular event.

The Week's Outline:
We will pass on information about our plans for the course of facility prep later today as we get settled back in and finalize the details with the owner/renovation work crew. YESSSSSSSS!

''Deck Of Cards WOD'' (07.30.2012)
Assign your choice of 4 challenging CrossFit movements to each suit in a standard deck of cards. Pick one daunting task and one currently frustrating skill based task to each Joker card.
Start a clock and spend 4:00 Minutes on x 1:00 Rest working as hard as possible (with a premium on Quality) striving to get through as much of the deck as possible. Use no more than 6 total Rounds of Work/Rest intervals.

Notes: There is a very simple and very customizable Iphone App for this exact idea... It might not be free as far as we know, but worth a shot if you're stuck without any chronic gamblers or sidewalk magicians around to randomly supply decks of cards to elite fitness enthusiasts. Get some, Freaks!

Post details of today's training to comments.

The world is your playground. Plan accordingly until at least Monday, please.

And if we could have everyone write your name after your comment it would make it a lot easier to communicate, thank you.

Deck o' cards: Uno cards were all I could find.
Red- situps
Green- burpee pullups
Blue- thrusters w/ 25 lb dumbbells
Yellow- box jumps
Wild/Draw 4- pushups

Did 4:00 of each exercise and rested 1:00- thrusters, box jumps, 2xburpee pullups, situps, pushups. Now that I look at other posts I think I did a variation of the WOD.
