Open WOD 12.3 3-10-12

I went into the box last Sat. to try and give the Open 12.3 workout a go. The knee was feeling better from having rested it last week.

As I was warming up Lisa and Ninjow were talking to me about doing this WOD, and if it was the smart thing to do with my knee. I really want to do this workout especially after hearing everyone talk about how hard it was, but Lisa and Ninjow talked me out of doing it. I was frustrated but not with my coaches, they are only looking out for me and my health. Justin said it best when he said look I want you back in 4 weeks not out for 4 months. I was just frustrated because of the injury and not being able to work out and compete. I am glad they talked some sense into me, because with that workout I would have definitely felt it on my knee.

Here is what Open 12.3 had to offer the athletes competing in the Open for the Crossfit Game.

Complete as many rounds and reps as possible in 18 minutes of:

 15 Box jumps, 24" box

 115 pound Push press, 12 reps

Some of our top athletes at our box men and women were around the 7-8 round mark.

Lisa did give me a cardio WOD to do that day and it was a good one.
