Monday Workout: Murph

We are only open on Monday for one class at 6:15PM. There will be an On Ramp class, but no intro class.

WOD

For time:

  • 1 Mile Run
  • 100 Pull-ups
  • 200 Push-ups
  • 3000 Squats
  • 1 Mile Run

In memory of Navy Lieutenant Michael Murphy, 29, of Patchogue, N.Y., who was killed in Afghanistan June 28th, 2005.
This workout was one of Mike’s favorites and he’d named it ‘Body Armor.’ From here on it will be referred to as ‘Murph’ in honor of the focused warrior and great American who wanted nothing more in life than to serve this great country and the beautiful people who make it what it is.

  1. 3000 squats?!? Wonder how long that would take…

    1. I think my legs would fall off.

  2. Jealous in that weird sadistic crossfit kind of way. Have fun!

  3. They just named a ship after him…..HoooRah!

  4. Thanks for all the help today on snatches Ben and allowing me to workout with you all today. Right after Crossfit I went to C’ville Running Company bought new shoes and talked to a girl who might be joining your box and told her she should. Also, in the Navy it’s Hooyah… Just sayin’ cause the Team guys would be pissed if they heard you say oorah to them haha.

  5. oops. Please pardon me! HOOYAH!

      or 300 for that matter…

  7. My vest is still in the gym somewhere. Linton, if you do this today, you’d better wear it!

    Happy training, and have a great Memorial day. Thank a Veteran, and salute the fallen.
