NIKE METCON THREAD - we at 10s now

[rodrigofresh]

My bad guys, been really busy.... wanted to give you an update.... Still have no definite ETA as the port delays have been resolved... now they are just dealing with a backlog of getting ***** out... from oranges to curling irons etc..... Nike is not a priority as they are just brining in whatever they can. I will keep you guys updated..

Also.. when we have pairs online, they will be ready to ship... not no ghost **** like other places are doing.

-Fresh

PS - tried 15.3 today and couldnt even get one muscle up... my arms are shot, at least i got 5 in the books last week,

Nice can't wait!

I also only got 5 MUs for 15.3. Better than 0 muscle ups ever!

15.3 is a beast no matter where they put the muscle ups, the double unders get you.

Yea a lot of people at my gym were stumped at the DUs. The key was the pacing at the Wall Balls I think. Keep a good pace to not really burn your lung capacity up.

Our gym owner who is usually in the Norcal Regionals did really well.

Nice! You should try and make it, im sure it would be a great experience. Invictus is like the Southern California "Norcal CF" as far as being known and competitor level goes.

If you're ever in Norcal hit me up, and we can cruise to my box. Smaller more intimate box, but cool folks. One of the Co-Owners is Dusty Sulon, who I was saying usually makes it to regionals.

I was hoping to atleast finish a round, but I had to finish my MUs to even get there which I didnt . I definitely gotta ditch the false grip and learn to string them together.

Which box do you train out of bro? My score for 15.3 was 3, i'll take that though, haven't done a ring muscle up in almost 2 years since hurting my shoulder.. Showed up and cranked out 5 before starting the metcon, but when that clock started I only had 3 left in me. I'm still sore from all my missed attempts! Kinda sucks though cause I know if I could've got passed those muscle ups I wouldn't have issues with anything else.

1, my score was 1. I got a couple of muscle ups back in August, and lost them right after. Spend about an hour and a half on Friday trying for a muscle up, ripped up my hands, and went back today for another hour or so. No luck. I snuck back over to the gym for literally 10 minutes this evening, got one, and had to run even though there was still plenty of time on the clock.

Oh well, the feeling of just hitting one again made all the pain and frustration worth it.

Fresh- Get down to Invictus! I have a few friends who have dropped in there and have had nothing but great things to say. I'm also a big time Bridges fan, so I am probably biased.

Happy to say I have completed the set of 4 og metcons! (going to sell the orange and grey pair) Got the black ones today on a phone order from niketown la.

15.3 was a rough one, those wall balls got me. Finished with 353 reps

 

[SuperJ5]

What size and how much?

Crossfit Danville. Yea man I was toast with all my attempts before lol. I would of been totally fine after the MUs. I didn't even sign up for the open since i know for the first 2 I would be traveling in Japan.

Anyways good work everyone. kevman great numbers! Where are you from? Also any opinions on which is the best color? I personally wanted the Orange/Blue lagoon because they looked nice in person, and are actually our gyms colors lol.

 

[kevman]

jewelknows thanks! I'm in Norcal train out of Lifeworx CrossFit. In my opinion the volt/grey are the best. I love to orange and blue color but a few times on the rower and they are starting to get dirty in the mesh and its impossible to clean. That's why I got the black ones so I can train whatever and not worry about getting dirty.

Nice! I did the lifework Team Comp not too long ago! Thanks for the tips. Yea I wanted the Volts at first until I saw the Orange/Blue. I may go with the black since they seem to pop up much sooner.

My muscle-ups deserted me yesterday finished on 278 reps which was annoying as 300+ was certainly on the cards. Reckon i was trying to rush them and thinking about it too much.

Oh well, roll on Thursday for 15.4!

New colorway I've never seen before, thought I'd share!

Not a big fan of the orange swoosh on top of the red though.

Dam, it doesnt look like they ship to the US.

Woah, randomly went onto Rogue and they had a 10.5 in the Black colorway. I placed my order for them and it went through. I hope it isn't some system error having that size on there
