Next CFT

The votes are in and we're going to run a CrossFit Total TWICE these next two weekends:

• this coming Sunday 8/21 @ Noon
• next Saturday 8/27 at 1:00pm

YOU MUST RESERVE A SPOT otherwise you will not be able to lift. Non-members are welcome, but it's going to cost $10. The event runs kind of long (2-3 hours on average, depending on the amount of lifters we have), but it helps to know your opening weights. Remember: the Total is the sum of your 1-rep maximum back squat, press, and deadlift. You can read more about the rules here.

Discussions about the CFT will happen during all of the LIFTING classes this coming Thursday.

compare to 06JAN2011.

Did you try to power it out with slower, stronger strokes? Or did you go with the endurance and stamina route and increase your stroke frequency?

WOW and Chess? I mean, he's Viking and he "Paleo's in the Zone".

And have you seen his chalking technique?!
