The objective was set- get the Overhead squats UNBROKEN. Well done, and HOOF*CKINYAH! EVERYONE hit that target. THANKS for those super strong efforts. That is some of the strongest fuel available.

Just to get an idea of how special today was, it's the first time since opening in 2008 that we have had EVERYONE go unbroken, ever. It feels good to smash a target doesn't it? Yes.

Before CrossFit an Overhead squat would have been unimaginable. It requires high levels of strength, stability, and flexibility. Today's success is the result of your hard work, and consistency in training. The emphasis was less on load, more on form. Good job embracing the suck. You're Overhead squatting! Be pleased, not satisfied.

Tuesday is a rest day. REST DAY. Open gym for skills, or mobility, or a missed wod. Remember that rest is part of the program- so use your time wisely and do something that feels good and helps you recover. Roll, floss, feather, smash, anything. Just don't make the pain face. Stretch. Get a massage, take a nap. Your body will thank you with higher levels of performance and comfort. It's your business- take good care of it.

Thanks very much for a really great day at CFSF. Thanks Sharon, and Teresa.

Unbroken.
CFSF
