  1. NOOOOO I want to press and do this WOD.

    I have a flight today and set the alarm for 620 so I could get to 7am before work.

    Unfortunately, I went to bed at 330am after packing and cleaning the house, so even though I got up and got ready, it was a little too slow and I decided to just go back to sleep.

    I’ll need to find a place to do this while Im in Cali, or just make it up when I get back next week.

    Bah.

  3. Hmm, can I hire that moving crew at the end of the month? Seriously! N & I will provide food, beverages, and probably more fun stuff, like part of my large book collection that I can’t possibly take with me.

    @Shawn, I’ve definitely been there with the late night/early morning packing. Safe travels!

    Happy Anniversary to all my fellow July Foundations peeps: Becca S., Paulie Ts, Jess F., Mr. Fox, Justin L., Christian D, Anne I. (currently at large)….!! I can’t believe it’s been a year already. Love you guys!

  6. Funny, I’m about to start filling a Uhaul this afternoon. Fewer helpers, though.

    At least I don’t have to do it in my coat?

  9. good times at 7am

    PRESS(45×5 75×5 105×5 135×4)150×5 155×5 160x5felt good.

    AMRAP 20 min BJ/DL/PJ4 rnds + BJ + DLweights rx’d. but screwed up pj. did each rep from the ground. a lot harder that way. doh!a good one though.

    CDfoam roll and lacrosse ball goodness.

  11. Happy Birthday, Peter!

    Snip – are we all going to ride in the van to Pittsburgh and Ann Arbor with you guys if we help you move?

    I’ll second Snip’s “Happy Anniversary” to our July ’09 Foundations crew! You guys rock. Mr. Matt R was also in our class (…plus 3 who aren’t around: Felipe, Melissa, and John)! On July 2 – our first class – we did tabata squats. Ah, memories.

  12. @Becca you are welcome to come if you like. You can be the official Reina-wrangler.

    How could I forget Matt R.?! Of course! And Melissa just had a baby about a week ago, a little girl.

    Those tabata squats wrecked me for at least two days…how far we’ve come!

  13. Four sessions into the new strength cycle, my first, I got:

    1. my first-ever string of strict crossfit pushups (4)

    2. my first-ever promotion to a lighter band for pullups

    Thank you, barbells, Jeremy and Margie for making me switch bands.

    P.S. Still starving.

  15. Aah one glorious hour on the leaderboards… Meghan R, I don’t know who you are but I’m comin’ for you and your 1:59.2! 😉

  17. Dear CFSBK, oh how I’ve missed you all. It’s so good to be back home!

    Warmup:-droms, compass plank, dislocates-PVC press, push press, push jerk series

    Press:(45×5, 55×5, 65×5)75×1.5, 70×1, 65x5x2-These were bleh. Last week I was able to do 70x5x3 but I think I made too big of a jump and psyched myself out. Oh well.

    WOD: 5 rounds plus 10 bj’s @85lbs.-This was pure misery considering I haven’t really done any metcon’s in 2 weeks. I guess the daily serving of full fat ice cream didn’t help either. 😉

  18. Good to see Jess, even if only in passing. Glad you’re back!

    Press (3): (45×5, 65, 75) 85, 90, 95

    AMRAP 20 min = 6 rds + 12 box jumps. Felt good on this one except when I clocked myself in the chin on one of the jerks (ugh!). Rest of the sets were unbroken. Jerks made a lot more sense after Margie’s cues on Sunday about how to rack it.

  19. Press was 105×3, 115×3, 120×3. Really happy about this as 120×3 ties an old PR from when I weighed 10 pounds more.

    Wod with 115. 4 rounds + 21 box jumps, 15 deadlifts and 7 jerks.

    Really great to have the Foxes back in the gym (Yes I know that is not how I am supposed to pluralize it).

  20. 55 x 5 x 3 press

    amrap wod @ 65lbs: 5 rounds, 21 box jumps and 1 deadlift

    I realized doing this wod that I’d never really given much thought to technique on the box jump other than jumping on and off. I was struggling to jump off in an optimal way that didn’t stress my knees. Any tips on how to land on the ground with “give” and jump back up from same position? Or not take that extra step backwards on landing? I felt very inefficient. But in general it was nice to finish a deadlift wod w/o losing my shit.

  22. did some work with DO

    foam rolling, stretch-torture

    OHS work

    3 rounds1 min max DUs (got 38 consecutive in first round, pr!)1 min OHS @ 65

    60, 7 (5-2)38, 6 (4-2)33, 4 (4-F)

    it is REALLY TOUGH for me to get a grip and compose myself for the OHS after getting the heart rate up. this was only 6 minutes but real tough.

    then did a 500m row1:44.4

    (thanks Nick!)
