____________________________________

If you haven't already noticed, the programming is fun but tough. Be understanding that the first few cycles will be the toughest with all the 1 rep maxes. This means that you should get enough sleep and improve your eating. These two things alone will do wonders for your training and recovery.

Some of you will possibly burn out for a while and then return for more. This is normal as the mind gets tired too. This is why nutrition and rest are of utmost importance.

I want you to try and be as consistent as possible with coming in but I also want the programming and training in the gym to be fun for you, so if you have questions about how your feeling, both mentally and physically, please do not hesitate to ask either Joe or myself.

Lastly, if you are adhering to the program, utilize the rest days. Keep these days for making up strength work if you've missed or are going to miss. I know you monsters like to come in, but I will have Saturday mornings at 8 and even Sunday's at 1 open to those that want to utilize them (as long as the attendance is high).

  6. completed 3 rounds and 12 pullups Rx'd. Pushups were the killer in this one. Glad tomorrow is a rest day for me as my left shoulder/arm is killing me. It didn't bother me during the WOD though.

    Great job once again 6 a.m. crew!

  8. Great Job 6am!

    A tough one as always. I got 3 rounds and was able to do all pullups in each round in a row. I liked the lower box/plate jumps as I was able to work on continuous jumping, something I am not very good at on the regular boxes.

  10. Love working out with you guys in the morning! All of you. Great job!
    I got 4 rounds completed. I wanted 5, but the push-ups really slowed me down. No surprise. I tried not to break up the box jumps and was doing sets of 5 pull-ups.

  18. Another reason to love this program....one day you feel like you're on top of it, then......2 rounds and I feel like a dog.

    2 Rounds, Pullups and 21 pushups....15 "cheater" pushups.

    Why is everyone saying I'm obsessed with this Crossfit thing?? ;-) Anybody else get that??

  32. 3 rnds + 4 pushups.

    did better than i thought i would especially since pullups slow me down. broke pullups into 5's & pushups into 3's. i think i finally got the rhythm down for box jumps. now if i only will be able to do it on a box!! great job tonight 6:30.
  33. Jen S. Says:
  34. 4 rounds plus 7 pullups Rx'd. Those darn push ups slow me down every time. I was able to do all the box jumps without breaking them up.
  35. Courtney Says:
  36. 2 rounds + 15 pushups with lots of bands or the pullups and pushups.

    Danielle, I can help you with the newsletter. Journalism used to be my thing.
  37. Danielle Says:
  38. Got three full rounds and then pullups and 3 push-ups. I am not a big fan of push-ups. Something else to work on.
  39. Joe C Says:

  43. kahrs Says:
  44. 4 rounds 5 pull ups. Was a lot of fun. Need go get more consecutive pull ups.
  45. BigD Says:
  46. I think I took Rick's advice on getting more rest a little too far and overslept, thus missing the 6AM class. My bad, but work let me out for an hour for the noon class. 3rounds, 15 pullups and 20 pushups. Thanks for keeping me honest on the pushups Joe.
    Great job nooners! Huge class, lots of tough folks! Be there bright and early Friday for 6AM class!
  47. Eric C Says:
  48. So... I had a 1+1 w/ Joe today... at least it seemed that way. There were only 5 or 6 of us there this morning. It was actually kind of funny.

    5 full rounds completed plus 15 pullups and 8 pushups. I think I had an advantage by resting Wednesday and doing this WOD today. I wanted to see how close I could get to Ricky, but pushups (in sets of 2 in rd 5) take FOREVER!
  49. Addi Says:
  50. 3 rounds, 17 pushups

    I liked this one a lot more than I thought I would. Pushups were the limiting factor, but no surprise there. They actually went better than usual - sets of 5s for most of the first two rounds, which is pretty decent for me. Pullups felt great - 1st round unbroken, after that the kipping had a strange effect on my bladder and I had to break them up. Jumps were good - unbroken on the 3rd round, only broke them up because of missed jumps otherwise.

    Danielle - I'd be happy to help with the newsletter.

Thanks For Visiting!
