Military (standing) presses with 175lbs (and shooting for 200) is elite level. Twin Turbo is correct. 1 in 50,000 Crossfit members may be more like it.
You ought to think about the Crossfit Championships in 2015, because those numbers could qualify you, though probably not Top 10 placement.

Yes, the pull ups were kipping. I am thinking I did 40 now that I have thought about it for a while. I was showing off to my wife
I really am not elite by any means. I gained weight this year and my cardio has gone down quite a bit with my buyout of Thomas. I actually don't do Crossfit any more because of my heart attack. I just can't risk the chronic inflammation. That is probably a discussion for another thread, however. I still enjoy rowing, skiing, and kettlebells. I have a 100 pound kettlebell I used to swing. I probably couldn't do that now. I am more into barbells. My brother, however, swings that monster 1 handed...really. It's incredible to watch.
I really like hiking, and truth be told, I lift to hike with my nephew, sons, dog, and wife. I always loved hiking. My wife, however...she is unbelievable with Crossfit.
