Equipment: I adjusted the Dead Lift load down a bit after doing the WOD at 205# and failing to get past 10 / 20. This is tough - keep your Dead Lift form solid and steady. Do not rush it. When you get to where you can't complete the Rx in a minute, then back down one or two and continue at that rep count until you get to 20 minutes.

On Box Jumps

There is some debate among us on the correct form for a box jump. Does one have to fully extend their hips when at the top of the box to count the repetition? Does one have to have their heel fully on the box for the repetition to count? Apparently, this is a debate everywhere. Since I couldn't find anything "official" on the Crossfit main site, here are a few links to the discussion boards for your consideration:

http://board.crossfit.com/showthread.php?t=61102

http://board.crossfit.com/showthread.php?t=56799

Ultimately, since I believe that none of us are competing, the workout is one's own. Do what you feel is correct and what you feel is legitimate; and just prepare a smart-assed comment for those who correct your form.
