starting to feel better about handstands – glad we got the extra practice
Crossfit Rehoboth. Did an OLY class. Work on jerk split. Start at bottome position jump weight up and stick the landing. Then we did 1 front squat 1 jerk.
The big take away. We should thank every day that we have Brendan & Allison as coaches. You have taught us so much. And nobody coaches like you two.
4:31 RX’d
Love the improvement Alicia
Great and frustrating work on the Handstands but thanks Allison for the help and encouragement. I know I have the strength and that mental block keeps chipping away.
5:58 on the WOD with #123 on the DLs. Had goal of 133# but took a bit to do the math right. Its been a while on the DLs so glad I stuck to the 123.
also CONGRATS to Val for getting up into a handstand!!!
much needed yoga
6:51 with 315lbs
Don’t know what I was thinking.
Mary with LB and EJ
20 min AMRAP of 5 HSPUs, 10 pistols, 15 Pullups
12 rounds RX’d
last time we did this I did 12 rounds + 2 HSPUs RX’d but kipped over 60% of the HSPUs. this time, I did all strict. also, I could have gotten 1 or 2 more before the clock but mary tears my palms so the last 15 pullups i took gingerly.
5:20 @155#
i feel so weak. earlier in the summer i did diane @155# with most rounds unbroken. just 5reps per round today was painful.
i felt bad as the coaches were cleaning around hass and me doing deadlifts. THANK YOU GUYS FOR KEEPING THE GYM CLEAN AND TIDY EVERY WEEK!
5:55 @ 115lbs
Working on my pull ups so stuck around to do some barbell and kb rows
Sunday funday. Handstands- nice work Amy.
6:10 with 205#. Key was keeping the shoulders back on the way back down during the DL. ..Thanks Allison.
Carducci. Beast. Jacob our visitor from crossfit Denmark had to be impressed.
