CrossFit Road Warriors

For those who don't check the online calendar, please note that there are Highland Games this weekend so there will not be a Saturday workout. We will be back to our regular schedule on Monday the 23rd. (Yes, we will have a workout on Memorial Day.)

REMINDER! There is no workout tonight (Monday). Tomorrow we'll be back to our regularly scheduled programming.

Friday Tatiana and Kurt did Grace. Tatiana finished in 7:17 with 95# and Kurt finished in 8:10 with 135#. They both did the workout as Rxd.

I've seen a number of comments over the years  about whether Grace is supposed to be power cleans or full (squat) cleans. Coach has made it clear on a number of occasions that, unless noted otherwise, the CrossFit WOD clean is a full or squat clean. The only acceptable alternative is to do a power clean followed by a front squat. There is no such thing as doing cleans "Grace style".

Tonight's workout was "User's choice". The exercises were push-ups, sit-ups and box-jumps, each participant had to decide how many reps and rounds they were going to do.

Tatiana did 21, 15, 9 rep rounds of the 3 exercises in 7:10
Kurt did 2 rounds of 50 reps of each exercise in 13:38
Nick did 3 rounds of 15 push-ups, 10 sit-ups and 5 box-jumps in 5:32. On a 42" box!

Please note that there won't be a workout on Monday the 11^th, there is a special event that evening that a few of us will be going to. I was asked not to post any details, but if you're interested in going, please contact me and I'll be happy to give you the details.

I've added a new page for links and information related to Highland Athletics. I'll occasionally update it with info related to throwing or upcoming games. If you are interested in learning more about Highland Athletics (or Scottish Games), please contact me.
