CrossFit Friday 1/29/10


We will bring back an old friend, who, despite being on the “other” team, is a hero. Lt. Michael Murphy was a Navy Seal who was killed in action in Afghanistan in 2005. Having just finished the book “Lone Survivor,” I feel inspired to make Murph the WOD.

We’ll do the WOD as a buddy team. Come with a buddy or get paired up in the morning – either way, come ready to work.

**Meet at 0530 in Hayes Gym in Arvin**


Buddy Murph:
1 mile run
100 pull-ups
200 push-ups
300 squats
1 mile run

Shame yourself and get inspired!

This was a request. Don't ever say you don't get what you want :)

95lb Suck

21-18-15-12-9 rep rounds for time of:
deadlift
hang power clean
front squat
push press / push jerk


As the name suggests, you use the same bar for all exercises set for 95lbs. This one hurts so make sure you scale appropriately. If you are new to CF, try 55 or 65 lbs. Trust me, the weight will be plenty and you'll get smoked. If you've been around a while but your not doing the WODs as Rx'd yet, go for 75lbs. And for those that are Rx'ing the WODs, go for 95lbs and prepare to suck. Come mentally prepared and we'll have a good time.

Monday 1/18/10

Arvin opens at 0930 because of the holiday. I'll be there at 1100 if anyone is around and wants to meet up.

This was the WOD from the main site for Sunday. I have been wanting to do this again anyway, so here it is. If you're not able to do this one today, get a buddy and make it up sometime during the week. It's worth the extra effort.

CrossFit Friday 1/8/10

CrossFit Nation,

Welcome back and Happy New Year! For those of you who spent the holiday break sitting around, eating everything in sight and watching your noodley sack of flesh expand two sizes, this is your chance to show remorse and act on the New Year resolution to get in better shape. For those that made it their New Year resolution to spend more time on Facebook, eat an additional slice of oreo cheesecake and get to that next level in World of Warcraft – you may want to skip tomorrow altogether.

If you are already thinking about how to convince the opposite sex that your flabby, no definition body is attractive on Spring Break, you may want to start by dragging your body out of the rack tomorrow morning. You may discover that there is still some muscle beneath the noodle that is desperately seeking stimulation.

Tomorrow we will reach back to the old workouts of CrossFit Friday that were simple and strong.

50 snatches or clean and press (25 per arm then switch)
