Now that is full extension. Awesome job Laura. It has been really fun getting to know you and how hard you work. Keep working toward those goals of yours.

I want everyone to know that we will be losing a good athlete for a while, while he recovers from surgery. He has come a long way since he first started training with us and has the potential to do really well competing in next year's CrossFit games. Which by the way, we hope to be taking a large contingent next year, so start planning now.

Anyways, make sure you wish ZachR a get well soon to comments as we won't see him training as intensively until that elbow heals. We do hope that he comes in often to help with other things as it won't be the same without him. Don't get too out of shape Zach, especially now that the sugar bet is over.

  10. I think I finished around 7 rounds... not totally sure. With overhead squats it takes me a few rounds to get a good balance and rhythm so the first few rounds I had to break up the 5 (lame) but then the last ones I felt better and didn't break them up. I don't know how to get better at that.
    Good job everyone this morning.
    Thanks for breakfast ZackJ.

    What is this sugar bet I missed? Not sure I want to go there right now - with it being the holidays and all, its about my only excuse to bake :)

    135 OH squats - nice job :)

  16. Awesome job this morning everyone and good luck with the surgery tomorrow Zach.

    I knew this would be a challenge workout for my shoulder, but I was dumb and tried to push it anyways. My shoulder slipped out when I was lowering the weight after the second round of 5 OHS (and luckily the weight landed softly on top of me). Nevertheless I continued the workout and subbed 7 135# fronts squats for the OHS, but wouldn't you know that darn shoulder slipped out again during the jumping pull-ups, so I finished a couple rounds with just one arm and slowly worked my broken wing back into the workout. Luckily it didn't slip again. After all that debauchery I was able to finish 8 rounds. What a crazy morning.

  18. Good luck with surgery, Zachr!
    I think I finsihed 6 rounds, I started off really well with 95#OHS(didn't break them up), the last couple rounds I had to break it up. Good job morning crew!

  20. Zachr, good luck with the surgery, is that the proper thing to say...good luck....IDK, best wishes on a fast recovery! Hopefully you can still come in and cheer us on, and do some stuff that you dont need your elbow for, you know like....pistols,step ups, or walking, I guess that is all I can come up with :)

  22. So, I am pretty sure that I finished 8 rds and was on 16 pullups of the 9th. I, unlike Ang and Lindsey, did only 77# because my shoulder has been bothering me. O well. Great job this morning, everyone.
    Don't worry, people, I will still make ZachR come in.

    On vacation this week so I tried noon class. I scaled to 88# and was 4 pullups shy of 6 rounds.

  28. Oh Yeah I forgot to THANK Mel B for breaking the "magic" jumprope!! I almost cried when I saw just the handles on the floor...it was a sad Saturday. At the next Crossfit event I shall pour some of my drink on the ground outside as a sign of respect for the lost jumprope!
  29. A Says:
  30. I am going to pretend I did not hear the fateful news of MY MAGICAL JUMPROPE. Are you kidding me? I blame Ricky. Whatever. FYI - In respect to the jumprope, and only out of respect, I will no longer be doing double unders.
    Speedy recovery to ZachR - hope you heal quickly! See y'all tonight!
  31. Donohoe Says:

  36. Hope you have a quick recovery Zach!!! As per the "magic" jump rope. I broke it, but it was all in the pursuit of elite fitness and making sure the rest of you have a challenge :)...that's my story and I'm sticking with it!

    For today I did 87lbs and got through 7.5 rounds

    I was in my 7th round when time was called. I was in the middle of jumping pullups. 92 lbs....I cannot figure out how you would get 95 even on that bar!!! Its beyond my math skills....

    Nice work Jill! Impressive!!!

  44. 7 very ugly, very weak rounds. OHS are my public enemy #2 (#1 being snatches) and my shoulder is very unhappy with me right now.

  50. So...thought I was doing really well during warm up, only to realize that it was 89# that felt so freaking heavy. Ugh. Got through 13. Only reason being that I like jumping pullups. Thanks for picking up my weight because I am a weanie and couldn't clean it. :-) Great job to everyone at 6:30! You guys are animals!

  54. Oh lordy today was a very trying day for me. So I started with 77# and ended with 58#. I need lots of work with OHS. It will be a long battle I think. I don't think I have ever been so MAD during a WOD it was sooo frustrating today, so sorry to everyone around me.
    Nice work 530, oh I think I did 9 rounds plus 5 OHS and 12 jumping. Yeah did them with light weights :)
  55. V Says:

  57. B3nj4m1n Says:
  58. Zachr hope recovery is fast and enjoy those meds.

  60. Thank you everyone for the kind words. I expect everyone to keep kicking ass while I am gone and will continue to monitor the blog...it is an addiction. Happy Thanksgiving to all.

  62. Made it through 8 rounds and 5 OH squats. I am happy I used the Rx'd weight but it definitely slowed me down a lot since I my OH squats are still pretty shaky.
