Okay, who can name that awful early 90's movie reference? See below for the answer.
Today's WOD at Oceanside CrossFit was "Angie":
100 pul-ups
100 push-ups
100 sit-ups
100 squats
The smart people stuck with that. Those of us foolhardy enough to listen to Jeff were talked into an Angie spin-off WOD named "Angie's Abusive Husband":
25 Gorilla Dips (muscle-up with 3 ring dips)
25 Back Squats w/ 60Kg
25 GHD situps
25 Ring Handstand Push-ups
As I am just learning to do muscle-up and my handstands aren't there yet, I had to modify this workout a bit. Mine was something along the lines of jumping gorilla dips which I broke up into a set of 15 and then did my squats, 5 gorilla dips and the GHD sit-ups, and finally 5 gorilla dips and the handstand push-ups. The HSPU's I did using parallettes against the wall.
Even with the modifications this was a ridiculously hard workout. My time was 21:06. Jeff, the little monkey, did the whole thing, as prescribed, in just under 21:00. His gorilla dips were pretty impressive.
After the workout I worked on my muscle-ups a bit. I was able to hit 3 muscle-ups, individually, but my right shoulder is a bit tweaked for the effort. Maybe I should have been satisfied with just surviving the workout and left the muscle-ups for another day.
For those of you still contemplating the movie reference, here's the answer.

That's right, none other than Vanilla Ice, Ice, Baby. For those of you who actually knew the answer to that question: scary, very scary.
Yes, Angie's Abusive Husband is a jackass. Angie do yourself a favor and file for divorce!
