11:29 @ 115. Big progress from 6/1/11 (10:40 @ 95). E’s advice on opening and then closing hips on squat by driving hips back was a great mental cue for me as “getting down fast” wasn’t really helping. I’ll stay at this weight next time since 21 was far from unbroken.
Friends – I will be out for a week to a wedding in London. The gym will be in good hands in my absence. Train hard, train smart. Be Safe and Enjoy!!
13:32 @ 42. 21 ring dips blue band and then 15 and 9 two for one push ups. Doesn’t help that I still can’t feel my arms from Cindy
Have fun in London E!
12:15 @ 115. Could most likely have completed the WOD at Rx’d, but not under the 15 min cap. Did the squat clean / KBS workout last week at 135, and I remember doing one or two reps and then standing there looking at the bar, hoping in some form or fashion it would get lighter. Decided today to scale and complete rather than DNF.

11:56 @ 95 lbs. A little slower than last time, and did not feel as comfortable. Maybe it is time to put some weight back on post marathon.
13:47, rx’d – minute slower than over the summer. drinking and traveling have picked up which is directly correlated with the lack of effort.
For those of you who really want to start doing some mobility, here’s a video of a few things to help you out BEFORE you WOD.

The tricep thing is pretty crazy..be sure to test and re-test to check for changes!
Subbed burps for ring dips.
21-15-9 (Sq cleans, 135)
15-25-35 (burpees)
24:37…beating
10:57 (squat cleans at 65)
Ring dips rx’d but def my weakest showing!
13:06 rx’ed
probably one of the WORST girls out there
14:58
Squat clean @95
Close to Rx’D – nothing in the tank at the end. Brendan was kind enough to assist my ring dips for the last set of 9…this week has been really brutal!
Nice job to the 6:30 crew. Levi killed it tonight. Congrats to Nicola on her first pullup!
12:05
55lb squat cleans – these were sloppy. A little bit of babying here due to possible mild hyperextension of both knees from Monday volleyball
Blue band ring dips – these felt easier as time went on
Yay Nicola!
14:35
52lb squat cleans
Blue band ring dips
First legit pullup! Yay!
and yesterday was my 6 month anniversary at CFM. bruised, battered and still lovin’ it.
12:54 w/135# PC
Right knee is still preventing me from squatting.
15:16 sort of Rx(ring dips need work) another humbling WOD!
Way to go Nicola!
13:35
52 lbs
blue band
still so sore today
11:38
cleans @ 115 lbs – felt like the right weight
Ring dips basically rx’d, but definitely need to improve
13:30… #115, jumpingish ring dips. Squat stance was limiting, trying to open hip up and use knee correctly. Ring dips were on slower side and more about form/strength.
Nice job coaching Dave
13:55 at 95#
8:09 rx’d. (PR)
rough.
11:13 rx’ed, lungs were done from this week, felt myself resting more than usual and ring dips took too long given sore chest, no PR but Il take it as a good workout
12:09 rx’d (PR)
Previous Elizabeth Post below – Progress??
DNF – “squat cleans turn men into mice”
Also, just have to adjust to the heat – it is like Texas state football
21 – 15 squat cleans = loser
Another one from my first couple of weeks at metropolis
15:13 @ 95, pushups
pretty little blister on my thumb, good times!
Also, I used the hook grip for the first time in a WOD. I am not saying I like it, but it could grow on me with repetition/practice!
15:00 @ 85. I did Rings rx’d for the first 15, then used red band. Second round Rings were rx’d until 10 then I used red band for the remainder. Triceps are very sore.
So frustrating! 11:33 @ 30lbs and red band dips. Still sore from Monday!
