WOD 30 June: Nancy and an Ab Dab

by Andrew on June 30, 2010

in CrossFit London workouts

Nancy is a charming Crossfit original

5 rounds for time

  • Block run (470 m)
  • 15x 40kg Overhead Squat

Followed by todays Ab Dab

  • 10 leg raises
  • 10 Straight leg Crunches
  • 10 cycle crunches

x 5 rounds ( with a 10 minute guillotine)

the leg raise

Amelia demos the straight leg crunch

Daniel demos the cycle crunch

it was interesting to note that the fitness industry “rates” the knee to elbow and straight leg crunch, along with the swiss ball crunch. I think we are discovering that what the fitness industry sees as tough, is infact, self limiting, and non functional. A “leading” fitness group ace, commissioned this not  very convincing article article ” Best and Worst Abdominal exercises” . But. its amazing what come top if you limit your exercises and ignore gymnastics…..

19min at 30kg for Nancy.

6 rounds for the AbDab.

Is there a reason for the current obsession with abdominal work?
