Pulling our own weight and then some... Weighted pull-ups are always a blast. We went strict today, and that changed things quite a bit. Some loaded, some did not. Whichever group you were in, good job!

Great workout everyone. Super fast finish Richard! Keep those lungs inflated.... This was a short, and sweet session where most went unbroken. It was also the first CrossFit workout at prescription for some puppies. Great job puppies!

Great session guys. This was a heavy workout that took a lot of fuel. Good prioritization for a Saturday morning. Twenty five minutes felt like thirty today, and pulling the garage door down took a little extra effort.
This session is named in honor of U.S. Marine Corps First Lieutenant James R. Zimmerman, assigned to the 2nd Battalion, 6th Marine Regiment, 2nd Marine Division, II Marine Expeditionary Force, who died on November 2, 2010 during combat operations in Helmand Province, Afghanistan.

Great times and great runs guys. Running backward is not only smoother than running forward, it also keeps us on our front foot. With exception of pulling heels to butt, it is a good example of pose running. Brilliant plan. Thanks CrossFit.

Great lifts everyone. All the cues we talked about got hit. Form, consistency, intensity. There were also some heavy lifts... John, Lynde, Casey, Eric- super strong. If you didn't get to max out with all three today, no worries. There will be more. The practice was good, the heavy will follow.

Wednesday is another well deserved rest day. Use the extra time you have to get some mobility. Address that tight PC, roll your feet, floss your hamstrings, ANYTHING... Just do it.

Outstanding time Patricia, and nice job John Fenn for grabbing two in one day. Hooyah! Way to hang tough Burly Girl. Getting those sea legs back isn't going to be easy... Stay tough! The Puppies are still doing great. We have a sorta big litter, so keep your eyes on these pups as they continue to get locked on.
Which of the exercises was most taxing for you, and did you have a rep scheme in mind, or just go all out until you were done? There were several people that went unbroken for several exercises. That's the way to do it. Super good job!

Great session everyone. As prescribed Eric, Casey, and John- Hooyah! This was a potent session that demanded focus on form, or it could slip away easily. Solid drives and super fast flips, are key. Oh yeah, how about a properly placed rack... That, combined with the huge demands of thrusters, are a recipe for disaster. Here are a few cues... Heels, knees out, tall chest, high elbows, patience for triple extension, fast flip- can you think of a few more?
We have puppies. They are doing really well. Form, consistency, then intensity, combined with a no quit attitude and doing your homework equals guaranteed success.

This was a high volume interval beast. We never have any problems with people resting after a round of FGB, but some are reluctant to rest after rounds like we saw in this session. There were 12:00 minutes of rest time incorporated into this session for a reason.

10 burpee's
15 jumping lunges
20 double unders (*3:1 sub)
5 jingle-jangles

Muscle-ups can be intimidating, but they shouldn't be. The MU sub is worse than the MU itself. Add a good run and we're groovin'...
5 rounds:
800 meter run
9 muscle-ups (*3:1 pull-up/dip sub)
Sharon- (3) * 36:15
Cliff- (3) * 37:05
Todd- (1000m row) * 40:19
Andrew- (2:1 MU prog. sub) 44:53
Candice- 1/2 * 17:38
Great job guys. Great to see Candice on the board! Outstanding Todd- knee getting tougher every time you roll. For those who practiced the MU progressions... How about that false grip? Gotta get it. This was a difficult session. Especially on the power people. Good job on hanging tough.

Another great session from CFHQ. Thanks! As usual, we had options. Especially for the Mudders...
5 rounds:
600 meter run
95 pound Cluster, 15 reps
Tammy- (3) 65 20:27
Scott- (3) 75 20:28
Sam- (3) 65 24:13
Teresa- (1/2) 75 22:05
John- (3) 95 21:36
Shaun- (3) 95 22:55
Sharon- (3) 55 30:00
Cliff- (4) 75 35:00
Andrew- 75 40:00
This was a very heavy session, and it decimated us. We had one guy get the full five rounds, great job Andrew. Several other people got a little love off the clock, and again, did really well. Great workout Josh. Also great workout Eric, JT at prescription in 13:20.
The Cluster is a mash-up of two monster exercises into a two-headed beast. CrossFit's version of Orthus sent to destroy the weak. I have never been sadder to miss a session... If you could keep your chest tall and elbows up as you received the bar, and got a decent jump that really opened up your hips, you were ok. Loss of that tall chest, low elbows, weak jump, and you're toast. Clean + Thrusters = Potent.
Great job on strong efforts, and having the good judgement to scale when necessary. CFSF will be closed Sat - Mon due to the Tough Mudder. If you aren't doing the Mudder, use this time to get some extra running, and added mobility training. Be ready to get back on line Wednesday, February 15.

This was an initiation into deadly runs for some. This session is another one that looks ok on the board, and somewhere around the third round things start to become very heavy, and you begin to hear your heart beat...
5 rounds:
400 meter run
185 pound deadlift, 21 reps
Tammy- (3) 135 14:40
Scott- (4) 185 20:50
Sam- (3) 185 22:00
Eric- Rx 23:24
Teresa- (3) 135 14:50

Lynde- 165 25:12
Shaun- Rx 20:55
Cliff- Rx 30:47
Andrew- 145 21:08
Brad- Rx 21:30
Casey- Rx 21:37
Great session everyone. This session is deceivingly difficult. A real monster. Good job on getting done. This was a little preview of what some of us can expect Saturday.
Several people rolled off the clock, getting locked down on a few dead cues and mechanics. Your patience, consistency, and a no quit attitude will be key. You are all doing great. Thanks for your hard work!

Can you think of anything better to do on a Sunday afternoon than CF? Me neither.
15:00 AMRAP
135 pound push press, 7 reps
135 pound overhead squat, 10 reps
15 GHD sit-ups (*3:1 abmat sub)
Jolie- 45 * 3
Cody- 75 * 3
Lynde- 75/45 * 4 + 21 sit-ups
Teresa- 75/45 * 4 + 10 OH squats
Great job guys. Really good to see Cody showing up. Good kool-aid. Lynde, the work you've put into your squats is evident. Great work, and great tenacity. Tenacity is that little voice that tells you, "You can do that better..." Don't wish it was easier. Wish you were better.
Monday is a rest day. Use your time wisely. Get some mobility. Mudders, your decision. Run if you feel like running. Rest if you don't. 120 hours.
Thanks for another great day at CFSF.

Hero workouts bring a special motivation with them. It was needed today. This was another great combination of exercises that landed us on floor lock.
'Rahoi'
12:00 AMRAP
24" box jumps, 12 reps
95 pound thruster, 6 reps
6 bar facing burpee's
Richard- 24" 65# 6 rounds
Lynde- 20" 65# 4 + 19 reps
Andrew- 24" 75# 5 rounds
Heather- 20" 75# 6 rounds
Brad- Rx 5 + 4 reps
Sharon- 20" 55# 4 + 18 reps
Todd- Rx 5 rounds
T- Rx 5 rounds
Super good job everyone. Great round totals Richard, and Heather. As if burpee's weren't difficult enough, CrossFit finds a way to increase their level of difficulty by having us jump over the bar. Who knew?
This session is named in honor of US F.B.I. Supervisory Special Agent Gregory Rahoi, assigned to the Hostage Rescue Team, who was killed in a training accident on December 6, 2006.

A doubles favorite, this session turned out to be heavier than it looked on the board. Should have expected that. Gotta get those doubles...
Three rounds:
275 pound deadlift, 10 reps

Great session everyone. Great doubles Patricia, Casey, and John. You guys need to teach a class for the rest of us on how to get doubles. Several other people rolled off the clock and had terrific sessions. Form, consistency, intensity. Always succeeds.
Find a few fixes for what anything tight, gnarly, sticky, or sore. If it hurts, do it more. Thanks for another great day at CFSF.

We've seen this session frontwards and backwards in the past. Debatable as to which is more difficult, starting with the handstand push-ups or the burpee's. It hurts either way.
30 handstand push-ups
40 pull-ups
50 kettlebell swings, 1.5 pood
60 sit-ups
70 burpee's

Good job everyone! Way to hang tough through a gnarly session. Starting order aside, one thing is for sure- the burpee's stink. Up front they sap the energy we need for everything else, performed last they make you feel like you're exercising in thick mud. Everything is heavy, and movement is slow. Think of them as getting prepped up for St. Patrick's Day.
Jolie, Cody, Ken, and Kelli you all are doing great. You like the kool-aid. Hooyah! Form, consistency, intensity.

Great job getting a difficult session in the book. The substitution for muscle-ups is more difficult than the muscle-up itself. Practice the muscle-up and you will get it. Good job on the progression muscle-ups today. Learning the false grip, and supporting body weight in the false grip are key.
Several people rolled off the clock today, and had a great session. Stay consistent, do your homework. You will succeed. Great job on the first day back after knee surgery Todd, and great job making it back Cody!
