WOD: 09AUG2011

Too often, we give up before we even try. Too often we seem to set our goals to the sky and become discouraged my the seemingly unobtainable task that we have put before us. But how do you know your goal is impossible if you dont try it?




Records are broken every years, history changes every day and new technology floods the market, not because its just "the way things work", but because people try. They set out with the best of intentions and the highest of hopes, unsure if they will succeed or fail. It is that unknown that keeps them going. You can bet, if they fail, they will continue to try. If they succeed, they will do everything to stay on top.




Try something today, you may surprise yourself.

Play day. Ultimate Frisbee, Skill development (Handstands, Forward rolls, Pullups, etc) We will work though, You can count on that. This is not laziness on my part.

Fran-Tastic! Today, you have the pleasure (or misfortune) of meeting one of my favorite CrossFit "Girls" Her name is Fran and she is, quite possibly the worst woman you will ever meet. I have had several encounters with her, the last of which was 2 minutes and 30 seconds of absolute agony and misery. After we exchanged greeting, she left me in a sweaty heap in the corner of the gym.

It looks very simple on paper. 21-15-9 reps of this couplet: Thrusters and pullups. Hell even the word "Couplet" is kinda cute. But looks can be deceiving. This workout is meant to be an all out gasser that should make the lungs feel as if they are on fire. Zac, Alyson and I will be there to make sure that with the intensity being up so high, the form stay within the 80 percent acceptable range. We dont want any injuries. Pullups will be regular, jumping or kipping. What ever way you can get your chin over the bar.

This workout will definitely test your mental strength, but in order for that to happen, you MUST push yourself to your absolute limits.
