Wednesday WOD–The Palacpac Snacpac

Thanks to Anthony Palacpac for suggesting Wednesday’s workout.  He is a dedicated anticrossfitter and we appreciate his support!  The workout is geared toward hitting some of the classic spots on First Hill but can be adapted to fit any area.  Palacpac claims that this feat can be done but I have my doubts as it could possibly the most difficult challenge we have posted to date.  Photo Credit Calgary Reviews

In 22 minutes consume:

-Yoshino’s Teriyaki with 2 extra sides of rice

-Sub Sandwich from George’s

-$15 worth of snacks from Bartell’s drugs

As I said above feel free to substitute your local teriyaki, sub shop, and drug store but Palacpac strongly suggests the aforementioned First Hill gems. Thanks again to Palacpac for submitting this great workout, we encourage all of our readers to continue to submit their ideas, pictures, stories, etc. and we will get them up on the blog.  If anyone gives this one a try please let us know how it goes!  Good luck!

Tuesday WOD–The O’Dea McDonald’s Challenge

This challenge is named for the extraordinary feats accomplished at McDonald’s by the distinguished young men of O’Dea High School.  Many O’Dea students can be spotted making the trek down Boren before school, at lunch and after school to grab a delicious meal at the McDonald’s on Madison.  Don’t let the name discourage you though, we encourage all anticrossfitters to try this challenge, O’Dea students probably just have the most practice.

In one day consume:

6 Egg McMuffins for breakfast

6 McDoubles for lunch

Each meal should be consumed in less than 22 minutes as I believe that is how long the lunch period is at O’Dea.

Be sure to post your results and how you felt after in the comment section.  Good luck!

Championship Game WOD–The Final Four

We know that tonight is the championship and there are not four teams remaining but this workout works with the number four so we are going with that.  Whether you are planning on watching the game at a bar or just at home with friends we would hope you have the necessary ingredients for this workout handy.

Feel free to substitute or add other foods that you have available at whatever viewing party you are attending.  Post times and any changes to the prescribed workout to the comments section.  Good luck and Go Butler!

Sunday Night Cool Down–3 Hours of Vids

Nothing helps wind down a weekend like a good video game sesh.  Tonight’s workout should help keep your mind off the pending school or work week ahead.

Xbox Controller by Ciaran McGuiggan

Play 3+ hours of video games.  NCAA Football, Madden, Halo, Call of Duty, Xbox, PS3, PC, whatever works with the only exceptions being no Wii Fit or Kinect (obviously way too much physical activity involved). Rule of thumb: If you have to get off of your couch to play it is not an Anticrossfit endorsed game.

Be sure to post what you played and the results to the comments section.  Good luck and have fun!

Saturday Recovery WOD–The Patty Wagon

This WOD is named for Patrick McHugh’s legendary quests to hit multiple fast food restaurants in one trip.  It was not uncommon for Patrick to go through the drive through at Wendy’s, a Taco Bell/KFC, and grab some snacks at 7-11 and eat them in the parking lot of 7-11 while he scratched away at some scratch tickets.  Nothing heals the pain of a rough Friday night like ungodly amounts of greasy food and some gambling so give this WOD a try!

In one hour:

Spend over $10 at two fast food restaurants (or $6.50 at three) and consume everything

For extra credit:

Go to 7-11 and buy scratch tickets and some snacks and consume the food and snacks while you scratch the tickets in the parking lot.

Please post what fast food places you go to, what you order, if you won on any scratch tickets, photos, videos and whatever else in the comments section.  Good luck!

Friday Night WOD - Spencer Hawes' Seattle Two Step

Consume:

1 Blue Water Steak and Shrimp Burrito

1 Dick's Deluxe

2 Dick's Cheeseburgers

2 Orders of Dick's Fries

1 Vanilla Shake

Obviously we understand that not everyone has access to a Blue Water Taco and a Dick's Drive in so feel free to substitute your favorite burrito and burgers in place but it will be tough to beat the delicious fusion of these two fine establishments.  Thank you to Spencer for your dedication.

Remember to post your times, photos, videos, and what you substituted with if you were unable to obtain some Blue Water and Dick's!
