The verdict is in: no meniscus tear! breathing a sigh of relief…and hitting the boxing gym tonight.
Yay, Sandy!!! Great news.
On a related note, as much as it kills me to miss anything snatch related, my right knee is saying it needs a rest day. So I will read my Olympic lifting book and watch videos and make this up later.
awesome news sandy!
115# for the snatch pull.
228 for the MetCon
Side Note: CF Open WOD #2 (snatch WOD) was a huge wake up call. My 135# snatch was disgustingly ugly and probably a bit dangerous. I am happy to be breaking down these snatches and hopefully I will be snatching my bodyweight one day.
oh yeah: I wore a sweet pink tank top. Vikram also unveiled a tank top. There are also a few surprise Triple T participants joining in next week.
105 for the snatch pull.
195 metcon.
Great coaching. So far to go.
Yoga tomorrow.
95 snatch, 140ish on metcon. In on the tee the following week.
145 lbs on the snatch pull. Several sets at 115 to work on the form as well.
I am going to give this another go at the 5:30 class to work on the form.
178 on the metcon. Great lung burner.
135 horrible form. Could not keep track of reps for the metcon.
47# snatch pull to work on form
Metcon:169 with jumping pull-ups
I’m coming back in during the evening (hopefully).
That’s how bad I want to learn this…
I went spinning this morning. Now I feel compelled to get a mani/pedi, have lunch at Bloomingdale’s and then overload my child with extracurricular activities. #iheartnyc
85# on the snatch pull
185ish on the metcon
totally forgot it was Tuesday until Jared walked in with a pink tank on..
Seriously, what’s next?! Booty short Thursdays? Belly shirt Wednesdays? Hammer Pant (a.k.a Bodybuilding Pants) Saturdays?
I’m officially switching Tuesday’s to suit my own wants and needs…. I’m re-declaring Tuesday as TIARA Tuesdays. Just wait for next week.
All I know is that if I see SPAGHETTI Straps I’m kicking someone out and then Eric will be really mad at me so please.. lets not go there!! AND you guys can’t say a word when fall rolls around and I start wearing my leg warmers everyday!
47# on snatch pull to work on form.
metcon: kept losing count; around 147. Jumping pull-ups.
Allison-stop hating fun. Tank tops are what Tuesday’s are about. Sorry you hate guys that wear tank tops, but it’s what we do now.
If you’re not careful, I may institute another special day of the week. Sleeveless Saturday, saturday v hour, shirts off Sunday. I can go on forever.
Booty short Thursdays!!!! Oh wait…..that’s every day for me according to Jeanine and Alicia.
Shirts off Sunday?? Now you’re talkin’!! Make it happen, trendsetter!
On another awesome note.. That’s great news, Sandy! So happy to hear that. <3
115lbs for the snatch pull. Great coaching session.
181 reps on the metcon
snatch pull 53#
metcon 198
pull up still WIP so did jumpin instead.. was hoping to hit 200 but just suck at the pull up bar…
And if anyone sees a pair of skullcandy earbuds on the floor, please don’t throw them away they are mine…
snatch pulls at 53#
Hearing “sweet” from Brendan about any portion of my lifting form absolutely makes my day!!
I love Olympic lifting!! It was really great to hear Cheryl Haworth last night live & in person at the viewing of ‘STRONG” state that the Olympic lifts are more about technique than heavy loads.
metcon – 169
CFM Family!!
Thank you so much for your support over the last couple months. Your generous contributions to Standing Tall and the love you all give were pretty much what got me through the 2nd half of the Ironman run!
Ironman was a great race, not quite as fast as I would have liked, but great nonetheless. A special special thanks to Team DTF for pushing me all day and running me in at the end. You can see them working the magic here:

Thank you all so much!!

Awesome job, DT.
Pretty hilarious clip. It’s like our 6 AM banter – but in the afternoon.
B Farrell needs to get back in here. Someone also needs to tell KPO that USA bandana headbands – when not doing Crossfit – are a litle odd (at least in New York state).
80 lb snatch pull. I was really excited for these after seeing the movie Strong last night. I think Cheryl might be just a tad stronger than me….
MetCon: 171, I think. A few dead hangs and the remainder were Jumping pull-ups.
Allison, you’ve inspired me:

awesome news Sandy!
Great job DT!
rest day today – totally inspired by last nights “Strong,” but when I fell asleep at work today, it was a sign I had to get to bed early.
Friendly reminder, 6 a.m. takes it on the road on Wednesday mornings. 6:20 a.m. hot yoga, 85th & Lex. I promise you, if you have mobility issues, this is the one true answer. Please join us.
Went back for some more snatch work this afternoon. As always, thanks to Allison & Brendan. You guys are amazing.
Couldn’t make it back for my second class tonight. Work.
Yoga or bust.
105 lbs for snatch
Metcon: 196 reps
trying to find the right balance between CF and marathon training but today was a marathon day due to work
6 miles at 7:33 pace, trying to work on pacing
plan to do 2 runs 4-6 miles during the week and one long on weekend, we shall see if it works
155 on snatch pulls – def understand the motion, just takes practice.
Lost count on the metcon but I did swing the 70 pound KB
Snatch Pulls – 145. Can’t imagine ever snatching this.
Metcon: Lost count. Probably a half dozen more than Jared. I decided I really want to learn butterfly pullups. I tried them in the WOD today and my ROM was bad but it was good practice.
Good slow motion butterfly pullup video:

thanks for the comments on my knee you guys! i’m happy to not need surgery for sure! boxed for an hour and a half last night. metcon conditioning from CF definitely made 3 minute rounds feel like cake. i used to be so winded after each round, last night i felt like i had just done one of our warmups!
looking forward to joining you all for this Oly practice in a few weeks!
