Monday 9.27.10


The founder of CrossFit is great to listen to in his simplicity of explanation of ideas and movements.

SWOD: Power Clean 1-1-1-1-1-1-1

Metcon: "Fran"
21-15-9 reps of:
-Thrusters 95 lbs/ 65lbs
-Pull Ups
Compare to 2.15.10

Post weights and times to comments.

Here is another quote I like from Mr. Glassman:

"I don't understand how it is that someone with only seven pull-ups could ask me how they could increase their muscle mass or strength. The obvious answer is, "work until you've got thirty pull-ups and you'll come back with five new pounds of lats and biceps alone." This kind of thing is true of squats, deadlifts, push-press, muscle-ups, dips and any other fundamental, functional movements. Athletes regularly working the basic movements never ask how they can get stronger or bigger they already know."
-Greg Glassman - Coach

    I thought I beat my last time but I didn't. I did increase the weight to 55lbs this time so that is good.
