Also, for those of you dealing with rips on your hands from the last several weeks, here are a couple videos to take a look at on care and future prevention.

How to take care of calluses on your hands (Here is a link for a pumice stone which is a great inexpensive way to take care of yourself if you don’t already own a dremel)

Taping your hands for pull-ups. There’s a lot of debate on the best way in the box, but here’s one method you can try. The best thing to do is try different things and find what works best for you.

Be nutritionally smart today please.  Just because there is a ton of food doesn’t mean you need to eat it all.  I don’t want to hear any whining, or moaning about you eating to much that you can’t work hard the rest of the week.

When you eat think of doing 50 burpees

Deadlifts

WOD for all

1×1x1×1x1×1x1 Deadlifts (today we are doing top n drop) however much you can pull from the deck to full extension then drop it.   A failed rep counts as 1 of your 7 attempts post highest number to comments.

Testimonials

After moving from Hawaii to Arizona in 2007, I found myself searching for an activity to replace my loss of the ocean and water sports. In the 2 1/2 years I have lived in Phoenix I have tried various organized activities such as indoor soccer, dodgeball, bikram yoga, tai chi and volleyball--nothing seemed to touch the fulfillment I had experienced in Hawaii. Then along came this CrossFit thing. I can honestly say that some days I have felt the soreness in my body equivalent to 25 miles of ocean paddling and I LOVE IT! I feel like I am being mentally and physically challenged in so many new ways. After only a few weeks of CrossFit I feel stronger. I notice my posture has improved, my back feels stronger and I don\'t struggle completing daily tasks like I used to (such as changing out those bulky water dispenser bottles). Yes, the workouts can be rough but the encouragement of the instructors and classmates creates an environment where it is impossible for anyone to fail.
