I wasn't feeling to well after it man. A bit white and sick but that workout was probably the hardest thus far.

Oh I am sure that type of exertion can leave you nauseous and light headed - especially with Stimul8 having you sweating bullets..

Probably has more to do with the intensity and trying not to puke then breathing :)

Correct.

My breathing was fine. Just the sheer volume and intensity that causes it

That's it in a nutshell. Timed AMRAPs are super fun, but it's a task in itself trying to stay just below what is referred to "redline" so that you can continue to perform. The hardest part is, your limit today is going to be different than your limit tomorrow, and so on. With a "chipper", you know what the prescribed work is, you know the time cap, and you're trying to complete the whole thing and come in under the cap. Trying to sustain a manageable pace is where it gets rough (depending on the chipper).

Are you registering for the games, or are you doing crossfit just to do crossfit?

You are on fire. Each day I read your workout then have to go research the moves. I will admit I didn't realize how grueling cross fit is.

Most people don't realize how grueling it is. A lot of people are turned off by the amount of injuries that crossfit seems to produce. Since I've been doing it, I haven't had any new injuries and my pre-existing shoulder injury hasn't gotten worse, and has probably gotten better with the forced mobility drills/rolling/mashing. With proper instruction, crossfit can be an awesome thing (except for butterfly pullups, those are queer).

Done this workout in am and pm today and yeah. Not one of my best days.

I have a very weak snatch weight.
 
Snatch is a very complex lift. Don't sweat not being able to achieve high numbers there. I'm not sure how long you've been doing oly lifts, but the snatch is the most difficult in my book.
Where's your sticking point?

Max pump is definitely helping. The stimul8 in the am causes so much sweating

Great combo for sure! The Thermo from stimul8 is bonkers IMO. I'm sure with your work ethic along with the intensity that CF demands you sir are drenched lol.

I hear the heat wave you guys had down there last week is starting to dissipate a bit chris
good deal eh -- 109 degrees in Melbourne and tennis matches getting canceled due to heat is just silly

Lol.

Yeah. Played cricket all day on Saturday in it.
 
Intense workout right there. 465 reps.. yikes.

Where does your heart rate sit when you get to the end? or do you test it?
 
That is an INTENSE session man!!
A lot of reps!

Reminds me of these workouts we used to do, like crossfit type stuff with a time limit and certain exercises that you had to do as many cycles as possible during the time frame. Straight up smoke fest!
