She's not doing a proper CrossFit pushup, since she's not going all-the-way down. In CrossFit you are supposed to be "plank-like" and not crane your neck towards the floor.

You are right tribum, this was my first real crossFit workout. I have came a long way since then. ;-)

[MalkyC]

No..tried that and fell flat on my face ;-)

i've never taken any steroids or pefrormance enhancers, im 14 and only 120 pounds, but im stronger that most kids my age cause of crossfit, i mainly train in crossfit and still win lifting comps, and im a boxer/MMartist and most of them use metcon training dumbass

Your an idiot. You have not trained with world class athletes, and doing laps at the track as they workout does not count. Listen look into something called the stretch-shortening cycle. Then go learn a thing or two about muscles and how they work and are developed then come back and post your shit. Maybe watch a men's gymnastics comp. Watch them on the rings. While you are at it check out some vids on Oly lifts.

@raphy79 Come by my cross-fit... I've been going for a couple months now, and I am completely amazed at how the girls outwork me. This is in addition to the fact that we have the greatest motivational athlete. A woman that started out at 400lbs... She lost like 30, and then tried out cross-fit. She's the beast of the gym....beating most people at WODs... scaled of course... but her effort counts for everything. She makes me keep going when I think my lungs are going to burst into flames.

@MalkyC Also in addition to the fact that you have come a long way: A Cross-fit workout sometimes is not designed to allow you to follow form the entire way through. It is designed to kill you. That's why some of our workouts are named "Death by XXXXX" Pick your discipline. When it comes to the lifting portions, form is more important for safety, but when it comes to doing Murph... you get through any which way you can. You look great, and you're brave for posting. Thanks for the max effort!

Not to sound sexist.. but amazing to see a girl do that many pull ups... very impressive.. love crossfit!!!!!!!

[mezzanodalaghetto]

30 pull upsat first set! you are great!

[lafreeway]

Hmmm, 2 of my favorite things. Pushups and pretty girls. Quite impressive.

[horsejumper4ever]

Wow, you are my hero. I started CrossFit a couple months ago and it is really kicking my butt. I love it. You are awesome! I think we're doing Murph on Satruday.....I'll use you as my motivation, lol.

[QuestionsAndDoubts]

Excellent kipping technique. I've never been a fan of CrossFit's use of kipping pullups, but I know that it does aid in work capacity. Still, dead hangs count in real quals.

[nicksouls]

Your kipping style is very nice! I'm going to make your movements the model on my future kips.

[cicampbe]

They are called kipping pull-ups
