MAC,
Thanks for the feedback, I can never guarantee creativity and I never purposely design a WOD for a “Gut Check”. The workout was designed with the intent of someone being capable of completing it in roughly 20 to 25 minutes, and under the following criteria: engage the work capacity of the glycoltic and oxidative pathways, and challenge and further develop 9 (cardiovascular, stamina, strength, power, speed, flexibility, coordination, balance and accuracy) of the 10 physical skills a well conditioned athlete will possess. When I design a WOD these are the things I consider, certainly not perfect, but it generally produces an effective workout. I agree with you that WODs designed simply to break someone down is pointless and if someone cherry picks one of the WODs from this site or jumps in occasionally because the WOD looks interesting they are probably going to have an unpleasant experience. The WODs are not designed in a vacuum; the work completed the day prior and the day following the WOD is considered in the daily prescription. Finally you are right; you don’t pay to receive “Gut Checks” and I do my best to ensure I put some thought into each daily prescription. Recommendations and critiques are always welcome, so if you have some, send it. MP
