As prescribed this is a true CrossFit beast. Scaling doesn't help much either. But that's why we do it, and this was a good one. Thanks CFHQ!

Very good workout everyone. Super good job Eric, and Russell- you guys are monster killers. Outstanding at Rx! Nice work Caitlin (Mighty Atom)- Parallette handstand push-ups are really tough and you knocked out a bunch.
Good job going inverted. That's a big step for most people. Everyone got a chance to practice, and yes, things got dicey there for a minute- but each time you practice you'll become much more comfortable. Going inverted ties two things we've talked about together: active shoulders, and a super-tight hollow body.
Again, this comes down to body awareness and control. Both of which you'll develop as you roll with us.
Nice workout Klare. We've talked about people who can do freestanding Handstand push-ups before but never seen anyone do it at CFSF until now. Very good stuff. Handstand push-ups are difficult enough on the wall. Off the wall they're something else entirely.
Alan, Anna, Jill, Juan, and Skot- thanks for your hard work. That's good fuel and we all appreciate it.
We congratulate the firebreathers, and attempt to motivate the beginners frequently, but there's a big group of people that rarely get recognized on the CFSF blog. They are the median. Neither the fastest, nor the slowest- they hang right there in the middle. I don't have to name them, they know who they are.
They are the engine that drives CFSF. Bright lights quickly fade, whereas dim lights just keep on shining. These people are our dim lights that will NEVER fade, and we are most thankful for you.
Let your light shine.

Once learned, it's difficult NOT to use the Split jerk as the preferred method for going overhead. The wod calls for Push press, your body wants to Split jerk- who wins? If you aren't dialed in you'll be thinking Push press, and still Split jerk occurs.
Why? Because the Split jerk is the most efficient of the three overhead lifts. Our bodies know it too, and if we're on auto pilot the probability is even higher.

Great job everyone. Monster lifts Megan, and Russell. You are both super strong! Caitlin, Cole, Klare, Tommy, and Quincy- excellent work. The Split jerk is the last of the three overhead lifts, and you all are killing it!
The Split jerk, like the other "O" lifts, also has a beautiful aesthetic value and when it's "on" things are moving smoothly, the bar feels lighter than usual, and you are in the zone. Conversely, when things are not "on", we struggle to get dialed in, maybe over think things a little too much- instead of taking a little walk away, smacking the power pole, and staying focused and relaxed.
Very good work puppies: Alan, Helen, Joan, and Juan- Push jerk. Locked. Now, just keep practicing. Split jerk next.

Great workouts guys. Super fast finishes Caitlin, Paul, and Russell.
Anytime we see this many Pull-ups in a workout it can become intimidating. Don't let it. Just keep pulling. Pull-ups are a CrossFit staple exercise that most people have trouble with until they learn some body control, develop stronger shoulders, and get some bar time.
We'll take any pulls at CFSF, but when the wod specifies L, or Strict we have to make every attempt possible to get them as specified. We took Kipping L's as long as the feet were above head height at the time we're clearing the bar with our chin.
There were a lot of people getting Strict pull-ups too, just fewer numbers than they needed. No worrys. Keep practicing the Strict pull-ups. When the warm-up calls for Pull-ups do some of them strict. The same thing we expect of the MU Club- every fifth Pull-up in the warm up is a MU.
Puppies- keep getting bar time, and keep practicing Hollow, and Superman rocks. As your shoulders are getting stronger, you'll continue to develop the body control and awareness necessary for Kipping pull-ups.
Why do you CrossFit? Seven people will give you seven different answers, but from our perspective, we believe you CrossFit to become better, stronger, and faster. As well as increasing our GPP, and making lasting friendships with like-minded people.
If you want to become stronger you must get those Deadlift negatives, let your chest touch the floor on those Push-ups, keep working those negative Pull-ups, and Dips. Any shortcut is just that- a deviance from the path to success, in this case, strength.
Choose the difficult path, embrace the suck. We want to see change, both physical and mental change. We see our athletes becoming stronger, doing things that even surprise themselves. More importantly, we see a mental change- an increase of confidence, and ability. The beginnings of the "I can" mindset.

"Memorial Day Murph" has been a CrossFit tradition for as long as I can remember, and it's a privilege to struggle along with the rest of you for such an honorable cause. We give tribute through our sweat, discomfort, and determination because these people deserve to be recognized as what they are- HEROES.
Thank you for that recognition CrossFit- another big part of what distinguishes us from anyone else.

Great job everybody, and THANKS for coming out for a special workout. Congratulations Carrie, Casey, Kathryn, Teresa, and Paul. Three "firsts" and two "over and aboves"... First 'Murph' no scale for Carrie, first 'Murph' sans partition for Kathryn, and Teresa, and for Casey- who carried a 45 pound bag on the second run, and Paul- who wore a weighted vest the entire time. Hooyah and thanks for the super strong fuel and motivation!
We've never split hairs on whether 'Murph' should be partitioned or performed straight through. But running a mile after 300 squats is something else. Either way, good job everyone.
We celebrate these and all military members on Memorial Day, living or dead. We are profoundly thankful for their service, commitment, and love for our country. Willing to make the ultimate for us.
THANK YOU.

Nice lifts everyone. Better than last time Kathryn, and Russell! Great job puppies too. You're all hitting the cues we've talked about. THANKS! Klare, a 95 pound Press for three reps is a giant first step. Well done.
The Press is where much of what we talk about in terms of power, and stability come together. Everything contributes. We talked about staying hollow at the top, and avoiding "over extension". We cannot maintain stability if we go into over extension.
Stay tight!

Good job staying on your feet at the end. After finishing, I had half of my bar broken down when the high pitch whine started. I gotta sit down. Whew, I gotta lay down... Knocked out cold. Twenty minutes.

Great workouts everyone. A BIG shout out to the 5:00 class- because everyone went unbroken. Woo hoo! A few guys also went unbroken at lunch, Eric, Paul, and Russell- good job, good job, good job.
We had one main objective today: Timing. No early pulls. Did you hit it? Olympic lifts for reps can get ugly if we lose focus from rep to rep. Remember our key words: smooth, and uniform- and you'll stay locked on.
Great job puppies. You're Snatching! Stay consistent, do your homework, and success is guaranteed. Thanks for your enthusiasm, and wicked strong efforts. That's good fuel for everyone.
How did you like the "Field Games" portion of the warm-up? Adult recreation. We have a couple more activities that can be thrown in the pot too. Fun stew, for sure. Standby. Sorry again Todd.
Track.
Thursday is an OS rest day. Use your extra time wisely and do something that feels good and helps you recover. You have a lot to choose from: ICE, stretch, roll, smash, massage, heat, floss, feather... Open gym 5:15-6:15. Be sure to thank Instructor M.

Great workouts everyone. There were a lot of fast finishes, but super fast finish Abby, Caitlin, Paul, and Russell- you are all fast! That's good. It gives everyone else a target to shoot for, making them put out just a little more effort.
Fast is directly correlated to intensity. Intensity is directly correlated to discomfort. That's why we want you to do everything you can to go through the wod as quickly as possible. Less rest equals higher intensity. You become tolerant of the discomfort as a result.

Great workouts everyone. There were a lot of fast finishes, but super fast finish Abby, Caitlin, Paul, and Russell- you are all fast! That's good. It gives everyone else a target to shoot for, making them put out just a little more effort.
Fast is directly correlated to intensity. Intensity is directly correlated to discomfort. That's why we want you to do everything you can to go through the wod as quickly as possible. Less rest equals higher intensity. You become tolerant of the discomfort as a result.

Great workout everyone. Nice Muscle-ups Paul, and Russell. There were a few other people getting the Muscle-ups, just not quite enough of them. Caitlin, Megan, and Teresa- good work on the MU's.
The 3:3 sub is worse than the MU's themselves. Practice and join the club.
How about the Thrusters? Did you remember the cues we've talked and talked and talked about? IF not, you were working harder than you should be. Good form is efficient. Bad form wastes fuel.
Can you think of three Thruster cues right now?
Unfortunately for us, even efficiency of movement can't make Thrusters any better. They'll still suck. But don't wish they were easier, wish you were better.

Great runs everyone. We caught a break and got most of the two sessions in without a lot of rain, but there were a few 500 meter row subs at the end because the bottom fell out. Rigid flexibility.

Great workout everyone! Bonus points for just staying on your feet at the end. Most were on floorlock for a few minutes, no squirming, just breathing. Understandably.
Good work on the GHD's. We have practiced the GHD sit-up, and performed them in workouts before- but not to the tune of 150 reps... Somewhere during the round of 30 it sank in- when this happens focus on the "here and now", and just keep moving. The sets get better.
Between the GHD sit-ups, and the KB swings, we knocked out a cool 300 reps of love. That's a lot of love. Our cores have been assaulted... Between the GHD hip-back extension, and the GHD sit-ups, most can expect to feel this a little bit over the next couple of days. YBF.

My PC hasn't been this fired up in I don't know how long. And I'm not talking computers.... We have practiced both GHD hip extension, and GHD back extension, but mashing them together into Hip-Back extension and calling it "Snakey" changes everything. Wow.

Great job everyone. For the CFHQ wod, some got Bar MU's, some got Ring MU's, and some mixed it up. Either way- HOOF*CKINYAH! on getting the MU's! Next to girls on bars, the other thing that really makes people slow down and watch is people getting Muscle-ups.
Girls getting MU's makes people fall over each other while they're watching. Nice MU's Megan.
The 3:3 Pull-up/Dip sub is worse than the exercise. Learn the Muscle-up. Join the club.
Good job 'Cindy' people, and nice round totals Todd McK. Although 'Cindy' is a little friendlier than the main site wod, she's no walk in the sun.
Outstanding work puppies! You all had an opportunity to practice some new things on the GHD's, and smashed the 5 round wod. Joan, you have turned the worm hard. Great job, and THANKS for your hard work. That's good fuel.
Skot- it's gonna be ok.
Thanks for another great day at CFSF. Thanks for your super strong efforts, and thanks for making working hard more fun than work. Mid-wod, in the throws of discomfort, embarking down the tunnel of pain, we can still look around and get a smile or two from others who are struggling.
A little friendly support. Another big part of what makes us special. Thanks very much for that.

“Imagine life is a game in which you are juggling 5 balls. The balls are work, family, health, friends, and integrity. And you're keeping them all in the air. But one day you finally come to understand that work is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce back. The four other balls -family, health, friends, integrity - are made of glass. If you drop one of these, it will be irrevocably scuffed, nicked, perhaps even shattered. And once you truly understand the lesson of the five balls, you will have the beginnings of balance in your life." ~ James Patterson in Suzanne's Diary for Nicholas

'Helton' is definitely a gut check. Quincy- good job.
Welcome back Megan. It's great to see you rolling again. Also great to see AA at lunch. Just like old times, huh? -Queen Anne's Revenge, or misery loves company. Welcome back Dustin Y, and Klare as well.

Great workout everyone. Nice round totals Richard, Russell, and Ryan. You guys have the cardiorespiratory system of King Kong.
The addition of that run changed things profoundly. High humidity didn't help much either. Even the runners were gassed. Good job holding on tightly through to the bitter end. That was a long twenty minutes.
The SM refers to the Superman GHD hold for time. Great job Abby, and Russell. Standby for more.

It seems like every time the wod involves running it's been raining lately. There's only one way to make running in the rain any worse- add sand. Fortunately for us, no sand. Just a lot of rain.

Great workout everyone. The night crews caught a break with the rain and got most of the wod sans sprinkles. Not so much for the lunch bunch. They took a shower. Good job holding on during a difficult session made worse thanks to Mother Nature.
Nice job going Rx'd Russell, Ryan, and Todd, and super fast finish Abby! You are all MIT's. Thanks for the fuel.
Outstanding workout puppies. Your enthusiasm is motivating everyone to step up. Thanks. Be pleased, not satisfied.

Great workout everyone! Monster lift Russell, and outstanding *PR Teresa! All this after a mother grabbing warm-up that Kathryn came up with that included a mile run that everyone loved. No really... What a great day to be outside running. Nice job Kathryn.
Good job hitting the cues we've worked on. As usual, irrespective of how much weight was moved, our chief objective was form. We talked about timing, and patience, the explosive second pull, and the fastest part of the whole thing- the flip under.
We also discussed one of the most important cues people miss- foot positioning. Jumping, and landing- or power and squat. Power is jumping, landing is squat. These cannot be confused. Remember to re-position!
Good job puppies. You are seeing some of these pieces you've been working on come together in one beautiful Olympic lift called the "Clean". You're Cleaning! Outside of the CrossFit world, most people think Cleans require some sort of soap.
We know better.
We know that the Clean trains both speed and strength, is an integral component of all sport, and requires lots of practice. Add a Jerk and the complexity factor goes through the roof. No worries. Everything improves with practice, consistency, and patience.
This session was another opportunity to compare the day and the night crews. The day crew usually wins out over the night crew, but not this time. 10 athletes were compared from each group:
Day- 1,405
Night- 1,510
Good job night crews. Things would be different if Derrick and Erin were still around... Or if Quincy hadn't fueled us all up with doughnuts! Thanks for dinner Quincy.
The workout also included a Plank hold for time cash-out that Eric H. clearly won with a time of "all-day". Nice Planks everyone. Spring is test time, so be ready!

Good job puppies. Alan, Helen, Skot, and Terry- we are glad you are training with us. Stay focused.
We enjoyed a cold winter and mild spring at CFSF but it's getting hot again. As the summer months approach please remember to bring a towel with you, and clean up anything you leave behind before you leave.

Great news! The rower contribution fund has reached the kick-in point for CFSF to purchase a new C2 rower. Woo hoo! Thanks very much for your contributions, and thanks for choosing CFSF as your CrossFit.
Here's a link to a workout of the day provided by the C2 company. Any extra row time you want is yours. Come in early, stay late. Rowing is the only aerobic activity we can perform with little to no muscle lost in the process. So get some!

Great workout everyone. Could you imagine going through this whole workout? Richard almost did. Good job Richard. Good job going Rx'd and getting some monster numbers Eric, Russell, and Todd.
We were introduced to a new Box jump. We've seen Jumpovers in the past, but this up and over without opening hips is a burner. Either forward or lateral jumps are allowed, and stepping up is verboten. Some went with the new style, and some just kept jumping right over- sans touch.
Anything new can suck pretty bad until we get that groove. Then it's on.
The middle part of this workout was where things really got dicey. Wall ball shots, into Ring dips, and back to Wall ball shots was brutal- and where most people ran out of time.
We've been practicing Doubles and Singles a lot. How is your positioning coming along? Hollow is what we want. Think "hollow pogo stick" when you are jumping. You'll get them. Then, it's on to Triples.

A quick shout out to Quincy (Quishy) McDonald. Just over a year of CFSF training under his belt and rolling strong. He has the no-quit attitude we like and motivates everyone to keep working hard, or he won't bring us any more cookies.
By the way, whatever happened to the "Shut the F*ck up" cakes? Thanks Quincy. Be pleased, not satisfied.
Great job puppies: Helen, Terry, Skot, and Alan- hang on tight, keep listening to your body, do your homework, and you'll succeed.
Thanks for all your help Teresa, and Todd.
Tuesday might be one of the most well deserved rest days we've seen in a while. We need it! Take advantage of your extra time and get some love. Anything. Roll, floss, smash, stretch, massage, take a nap- whatever helps you recover.
Open gym 5:15-6:15. Be sure to thank Instructor M.

Paul, Russell- monster workout. Good job, you guys are beasts. Good job everybody- this was actually a fun workout. Especially if you got to use your legs...
We talked about how to brake, and the two different braking styles, and also hit Rule #1 when Rope climbing: Leave enough fuel to get back down! Everyone had an opportunity to practice both. Nice work.
These recipes are all available from Sharon, and they are all yummy! The tortillas were out of this world, and combined with the pork, diced onion, and cilantro with some guacamole on the side made an awesome carnita.
Oh yeah, did I mention that they're all paleo friendly?
Good job and thanks again #1 chef.

"Sometimes you're the hammer, sometimes you're the nail." Sometimes it takes an extra day to really figure it out too... Not the case today. No doubt. As a matter of fact, lately, it's been "Rarely you're the hammer and mostly we're getting nailed."
But isn't that part of why we do it? We just keep coming back smiling.

Great workout everyone. We talked about the need to balance this equation by adding a set of 18, and 12. That idea was quickly rejected. The addition of any more reps at all might have tipped the scales on us.
Just keep moving. The rounds become easier, right? Theoretically, yes. Descending sets. However, this gem kept delivering right through to the round of three- a true lung burner.
For most of us, the word 'strict' was thrown out the window. Russell, Todd- good job sticking to the strict HSPU's. We talked about few cues, and had some demos of good and bad racks, and how each effects the Front squat. Good job locking those down.
The Burpees still stunk pretty bad, as usual. They hate us too.

Mayday-Mayday-Mayday! would have been an appropriate call for this ultra nasty Nasty Girls v2. The only scale was the Hang power clean, maintaining the integrity of the other two exercises. Three people got this gem: Abby, Eric, and Russell- our resident mutants in training. Good job- good job- good job.

Great workout everyone. Great job puppies! Helen, how did you like 'Helen'? She's an all-time CFSF favorite, an original basement girl we've known before she even had a name. CrossFit called the workout something like 'The Test'.
'Helen' is a much better name.
Big THANKS for the ultra kind words from Eric, our visitor from Enterprise. That means a lot, and is very much appreciated. Spread the love-
Friday is a rest day. Open gym 5:15-6:15 for anything from a missed wod to mobility, or some nice long stretching of those super tight and sore muscles. Roll, smash, floss, feather- anything that helps you recover.
How about an ICE bath? What the f*ck?! Yes. That's right. An ICE bath. Check it out-

Outstanding workout- You three are all exceptional athletes, and we are fortunate to have you training with us at CFSF. The fuel, and motivation you provide the rest of the gym is part of the "not everything that counts can be counted" aspect of CFSF that makes us special. Thanks for that.

Rigid flexibility is what allows us to stray from the path periodically. With the exception of a few monster killers, we strayed. Some got the 1RM sans HS walk, some switched wods entirely. Either way, good job!

Great job everyone. It's nice to have options. Sometimes we don't get that luxury. Most of the time the other option just isn't an option.
We did have some heavy Snatches, and there were a few long walks upside down. We got some practice rolling out of a handstand on to the pad, and OFF the pad, Mary... Scary Mary from now on. Practice and patience are what will get you inverted and moving. Get some.
Use the wall, use the rings. Get upside down!
Skot, Jill, Helen, Terry, and Alan- great job and thanks for your hard work, as usual. We are glad you are here.
We got a question about the Rower fund- as of today we are half way to the $500.00 CFSF kick-in. Thanks for the contributions so far... We're getting closer each month.
