For those of you that don't already know, tv channel 13 WHAM came out yesterday morning to see just what the hell goes on out here. I think they were a little surprised by the intesity and how hard everyone works. Great job, everyone - the news spots went off quite well. A real big thanks goes out to Eric Cady for setting it up and to Norma Holland and her crew for taking the time to come see us and give us some good press. You may see links to the video clips here... if not, just search the site for "crossfit."
It was pointed out to me that my proposed date for a xmas in July and summer picnic conflicted with the Jungle Jog. Oops! Any suggestions out there? Anyone want to do all three on the 19th? Got other dates in mind? Think the whole idea sucks? Get me some feedback, people!
Belated birthday wishes to Brett Lemcke. I hope you all liked the "vegas" WOD he came up with for Tuesday.
Mechanics - Consistency - Intensity... you've heard me say it before and it's posted on the wall at the gym. Check out this sweet write up by Freddy Comacho at CrossFit One World. Amen, brother! Going through the full range of motion (ROM) on your exercises will get you farther faster in your quest for improved fitness. Anyone else notice how all of a sudden Gina's pull ups got better or how Ewa can just rip off more consecutive full range pushups than any of the guys? I'll give you one guess how they did it.
(The news team from channel 13 came out to check Kaza's sweet run technique. Eat your heart out 990!)
(Lauren's and Kathy's squats are getting lower and lower each day.)
(Renee has proven to be a quick study and has a real solid swing.)
(Stash and Ewa demo what's becoming the new pull-up standard... chest to bar!)
(Janet works some ring dips while Heather makes the 24" box "her bitch" during Brett's birthday WOD.)
(Who the heck is the guy out front? He doesn't even look like he's breathing!)
