Today we tried something a little different for our workout. We’ve been having a lot of fun training and being open to new things. Rob challenged me today to plan a workout we could go head-to-head in. After some thinking everything pointed back to the same thing…crossfit (?) We’ve never tried anything like it but figured we would give it a go. Some of the different workouts looked up my alley but “Grace” seemed like a good place to start. Clean and Jerk (135/95) 30 reps, timed. Since this is new to us we are not sure if we did it properly but either way it gassed us. We’d love some feedback or ideas for future challenges…

Your choice of music is on point!
need to practice getting under the bar for clean and jerk Dana and Rob 🙂
She is just reverse curling that. No shrug at all in that clean
still waiting for the first rep
Solid attempt. The times are nothing to be ashamed of. A couple of technical flaws, but nothing that can't be taught. Her husband is a great motivator, which is always good to have. With some solid coaching, their times and technique will improve. Again, great effort by the both of you.

this is so pointless its unreal. Crossfit has more injuries while moving 1/3 of the weight of Powerlifting and olympic lifting.

would love to have dat "i see stars" music in The background though!
my gym constantly plats The same hardstyle over and over again haha
I See Stars! nice!!
Rob!!!!
DAM!!..LOOKING GOOD MY BROTHER. …
Didn't "The Mountain" do this in a charity comp and just blow all the Crossfit guys away? But according to the boards Rob put up a "pro" Crossfitter time..Congrats!
dana got those tren shoulders and tren hairline loll
Fix the form to avoid injury but I give an A+++ for trying it. lots of trash talking done by people who r too scared to try. try it first then we'll talk.

Good effort… but it's a test to see how fast and hard you can go. Taking it easy, pulling faces and talking for the camera is not an option. You could have Rx+ the workout about the regular weight! note that the weight given is an average for all. Stronger people are advised to go heavier.
Do another crossfit WOD, but do it to the best of your ability to have a clear idea of how fit you really are. Do a hero WOD or Crossfit games WOD for example, (for time etc). I think your body would be in for a shock. Crossfit tests all areas of fitness (strength, power, speed, endurance, coordination, adjility). No bullshit, just proof!

Ps crossfit always looks for form. like in anything else, people try to cut corners. hence judge at competitions. a bad fitness coach is a bad fitness coach, regardless if it's body building, crossfit or other sports coaching. end off line.
No technique on the clearn & jerk,, thus not efficient at performing this exercise. Regardless their good strength these should not be counted as valid reps
Clean and press for reps. Why does this need to be labeled as "Crossfit?"
You guys did awesome! When you press the bar overhead make sure to shoot your head through and keep it in a neutral position so the bar is straight overhead. You guys are insanely strong because those were more like muscle cleans. Rob was doing strict presses too haha damn! AWESOME VIDEO!
That video was a waste of my time
Honestly I just wanna know what shoes Rob is wearing in this. I NEED them. Seriously
so great atmosphere
holy shit i wish such music was played at my gym instead of this gay pop pseudomusic
i just wanna know the songs lol.
robs looking like he came out the fuckin machine they used on captain america,
Hella impressive for your first go at this! Not as efficient as you could be in the clean or the shoulder to over head, but you guys got the job done and in great times! You guys should do a drop-in at a local CF gym or weightlifting gym to get some pointers on the Clean, Jerk and Snatch. Then it'll be much easier to get faster times, but still super impressive for powering through. You guys should give FRAN a try. 21-15-9 Thrusters and Pull-ups.
Dana , try the open in 2016 . You might just qualify . Would be great to see you head to head with other female CF athletes. Not saying you shouldn't rob but let Dana try first eh 😜👊
Obviously you guys are super strong, however technique is basically non existent. You can really hurt your wrists and shoulders with how you're cleaning the bar and you aren't jerking the bar over head, you're doing a strict press. When the bar is going overhead, it literally should go overhead not in front of your forehead. When your doing a clean, elbows should go foward not beneath the bar, that way it can rack on your clavicle and shoulders and it will lessen the strain on your wrists and reduce the risk of getting hurt. I know this is internet coaching and all of that other good stuff, but to be honest most of us want you to succeed. You guys for sure have strength and stamina, learning proper form will make you more efficient therefore faster. I highly suggest either finding a crossfit gym that has great olympic weightlifting coaches or simply find and olympic weightlifting coach, that way you learn proper form and extremely reduce the risk of injury so other aspects of your careers would not be affected. I hope this helps.
Grace is 30 clean and jerks NOT clean and presses. To do a jerk, you end with your knees bent while you're over the bar. Also, stop with craning your head up like that. That shit is going to hurt your cervical vertebrae X0!!
Pretty good freaking time for first try. Good job guys.
Dana Linn Bailey is my favorite natural RIch Pianas.
Zero clean and jerks were done that day.
name of song please
Scream metal is fucking garbage.
The roid girl half-asses the exercises. I guess the steroids makes up for it
I SEE STARS you guys are the shit. inspirational and awsome music lol
would love to see you two take on the hero wod Murphy!
Every one of Dana's lifts are no reps. Gotta peak through the window that your fully locked out arms make.
Crossfitters dont have mirrors, that's your first mistake, other than that, not bad
do they take streroids
what are the songs in this clip
you guys are the best!!!
HORRIBLE !!!!!! PERO QUE HACEN?????!!!!!!!
Yessss! Crossfit!! <3
Rob is getting huge 💪🏽
