stumbled on this – sort of interesting to look at your fitness in different areas to identify any potential imbalance. personally, from my best guess (couldn’t answer all of them with certainty) turns out i am balanced, but a serious beginner….Curious to see what our fearless leaders think about it?

Interesting. Even though they list separate male and female parameters for some categories, I think this might be a little skewed toward male performance. I looked up WNBA stats and only found one player with a vertical 30″ or above.

Also, keep in mind this is on a CrossFit scale, a beginner CrossFitter’s athletic performance is probably still in the top 5% of the general population

Oh wall squats, how you hurt me so!

There’s nothing like not being able to tie your shoes for a week…ah…I am out of shape.

Walker that is based off of the CrossFit Seattle (the 1st CF) Skill levels Chart. The full chart (the one from the CF Toronto website is incomplete) and a thorough explanation of the chart is here: http://www.crossfitseattle.com/athletic_skill.html. Some highlights from the explanation:

Level 1 Healthy Beginner: “Should be attainable within 3 to 12 months for those with no significant limitations.”

Level 2 Intermediater Athlete: “the complete Level II may take from six months to several years to reach after achieving Level I.”

Level 3 Advanced athlete: “Few people posses this level of general fitness, although any healthy person can achieve it” “Expect to invest another three to five years of consistent effort.”

Level 4 Elite athlete: This level of achievement requires long-term dedication and a passion for fitness. The skills required of Level IV are very advanced and, taken as a whole, represent a highly skilled and well-rounded athlete.**

So yes these are great goals to aspire too, but keep the time line in perspective.

OJOE did the workout today in honor of his friend Marine Captain David Seth Mitchell who died in the line of duty yesterday in Afghanistan.

Comment by Boone — October 27, 2009 @ 8:49 pm

OJOE, so sorry for your loss brother. Incredible way to honor your friend.

Comment by Wes — October 27, 2009 @ 8:55 pm

So sorry to hear about your friend OJOE! It humbles me to think of the sacrifice that he made!

Comment by Tristy 'Mac' — October 28, 2009 @ 12:08 am

OJOE, my thoughts go out to you and David’s family and friends. an outstanding way to pay your respects…maybe we can all do the same and dedicate today’s warrior wednesday to him.
