Thursday, April 29th, 2010

After a few crushing workouts this week, our athletes seemed to enjoy a break from the heavy metcon to focus a highly technical skill of the Power/Full Snatch and Running!!
Jump.  Land.
If you can do that, you an Snatch!
Pretty simple right?  Not so much, in practice!!
There were quite a few people that [...]

Crushing!!

Thursday, April 29th, 2010

That above one word describes the effect that Wednesday’s workout had on most people.
For the record…it was Charlie who asked for this workout to be programmed in to the week.  Any feelings of anger, resentment, or ill will may be directed at him…LOL!!
The workout may be been crushing, but I give credit [...]

I’m Pretty “Blitzed”

Tuesday, April 27th, 2010

Chris coined the phrase, “I’m Pretty Blitzed!”
Today’s workout was simple….Legs, Back, Arms….Arms, Back, Legs…for 500m—4x
One singular movement.  It looks so simple on the board, but after the WOD, seeing people lying on the ground in puddles of sweat and squirming legs told another story!
Most of the people in the gym were recovering from Monday’s workout, [...]

Respect Your Elders!!!

Tuesday, April 27th, 2010

Sunday was Terry’s birthday and we revisited his Birthday WOD from last year.

Aaron took on all 85 reps of each movement, and there [...]

Shoulder to Overhead!!!

Thursday, April 22nd, 2010

Ya, that was hard!
Special thanks to Jon Gilson and Again Faster for this little gem of a workout.   This was part of their programming this time last year, and I was able to incorporate it into ours this week after the tenderizing of the the Crossfit Legacy athletes legs!!

Lots of Deadlifts!

The 11am class was rocking with 12 people, [...]
