Renee: “I hate Wall-Balls”
Justin: “Too Bad, suck it up”
I must say I enjoy every single session we run. It’s always fun, and something crazy always happens. Be it someone flipping off a GHD, another person doubling the workout by accident, or someone forgetting the movement they are working on completely. It’s good to see you all relax and have not a care in the world. I wonder what’s in store for tomorrow with the craziness.
Nice faces boys. Are those pouty lips?
Everyone destroyed Grace on Tuesday. Pretty impressive times with everyone utilizing their hips pretty effectively and efficiently. Keep it Up.

WOD “Grace” 30 Clean & Jerks (135/95) for time
Sunday’s first WOD of Football Gone Bad… AWESOMENESS. Finally getting through that tough initial phase of the Paleo Diet with Crystal where all you want is sugar. Amazing how I had forgotten how bad it hurt cutting out all grains and dairy, but we finally saw an improvement on our performances during WODs without intaking the sugar. So there’s hope. Remember we are posting lower prescribed weights, so that we will individually tell certain people to go heavier than the posted weight. This will bring everyone to a level playing field, and see the real contest begin.
Classic Cliff with a classic expressions of joy.
WOD 30 (15e) Overhead Lunges (45/25) 15 Ring Dips AMRAP in 12′
Tomorrow AMs forecast says it’s going to be 85 degrees. That is good news for the fun planned. The exercises we shall be attempting are going to be listed down below, so be sure you dress appropriately. (no they are not in order) Also, I am going to start changing the prescribed weights for WODs (except the named WODs). The weights posted will be lower that normal, but this will allow the more advanced people to increase the weight. This will keep everyone on an even playing field, and allow everybody to compete more equally. CrossFit Front Range in Denver, Colorado does this, and I figured it’d be a good idea to try.

Triple Pyramis Helen… OWWWWWWW.
Crystal and Katie some of the Gazillion Swings.
NORMAL SATURDAY SURPRISE!!! Bring stuff for all situations.
This is going to be a fun one. If you haven’t watched any of the live feed from the 2010 Games, I advise you to. It has the same effect as drinking a Redbull in terms of preparing for the WOD.

I know I can’t wait until the fall and cooler weather. The humidity really takes its toll on the body, but imagine when it’s gone. WOD times will go down, and strength numbers will go up… Can’t Wait.
