WOD

Rest Day

Congratulations Chad on a job well done during Monday's WOD. You rocked it till the end. It's physical and MENTAL determination like that which inspires us all. 

Joe said it best when asked what to say when someone wants to know about CrossFit. Physically, anyone can do it. Mentally, it's not for everyone. It's the difference between those that see dramatic results and those that just workout (or hardly show up).

14. Does anyone know where I can buy the bands we use for pullups? I have a pull up bar at home and I'm going to get these pullups down even if it kills me...
    Thanks.

18. 13 rounds in 15 min of 5 pull ups, 10 push ups and 15 air squats. I had to scale things a bit towards the end- purple band and sucky knee push ups. This was a killer!

22. Ang and whoever else wants to get grips (the women's handguards). I have a pair from my gymn days you are more than welcome to try. It is another layer of protection but your hands will still get rips. I'll try to remember to bring them to the gym tomorrow.

24. So today I did the push jerk makeup workout. Maybe I should feel not so good because I didn't even come close to prescribed weight. I started out doing the "man" bar and at the end of round 3 switched to the "girl" bar. However, I wanted to quit sooooo badly after round 3, but I pushed through it. This was definitely the toughest crossfit workout I've done so far. Thank you so much to Ricky for standing there yelling at me and helping with form. I'm actually feeling quite proud. I don't even remember my time and today I don't care :)

30. Thanks for this post Ricky. I appreciate these comments too. I think I might've seen God during that workout.
    
    Tonight wasn't so good. I did the 15 min pullup/pushup/squat workout. I started missing the interval after two rounds. The pushups got me. I may have to give this weakness some priority.
    
    Thanks for the tips and encouragement Jon.

32. Did 3 rounds
    50 sdhp
    50 burpees
    22:??
    
    Had to run to the bathroom in the middle of this workout only to discover, too late, that the toilet paper was located on the bench and not in the stall. Come on people, this is not cool. I should add 15 to 20 feet of squat walking to the workout. But seriously, keep it in the stall!
    This was crushing can't wait to try walking tomorrow.
