Hey Friends!

Soooooo apparently doing highly technical lifts after tiring yourself out with a 2k row is difficult.  Took me 7 snatches of the 15 before I dialled in the technique properly and felt good doing them.  You can bet that that one will be making an appearance again.  Also, didn’t realize we’d have 45 seconds to a minute of rest in between sets of the EMOM… you know that that means… I can fit more things into the EMOM 😉

CrossFit Games potentially start tomorrow!  Sounds like Dave Castro is treating this years games like a BUD/S test (for navy seals – designed to make you quit).  I was kind of hoping he’d dial it back a bit this year and just test people’s fitness, but he kinda went the other way with it.  For our members, when your friends/family talk to you about the games, make sure you mention that those people are the 0.001%, and that for the rest of us, we’re just working to get fit, and fun while we do it.  Nothing like trying to battle the notion that you’ll be maimed if you come to CrossFit.
