Our Fight Gone Bad 5 fundraiser will be held on Sept. 25th. We've already $980 raised with J.R. Mck leading the pack at $780. What is Fight Gone Bad? Click HERE for a demo and explanation of the workout. As always, we will have scaling options so that everyone can participate.
Party at CFSBK!
Malcolm and Laurel are finally getting married and to mark the
occasion are throwing a tequila-fueled party here at CrossFit South
Brooklyn on the 5th of September.
The party is open to all CrossFitters and their associated beings.
Things will be getting started around 9:30 pm and will be going late,
so come join in, eat ice cream and watch or compete in drunken
handstand and pistol contests (there will be a drink minimum to
participate, double for Coach David just to even the playing field.)
Here is a link to the event website:
http://laurelandmalcolm.eventbrite.com. If you know you will be there,
register for the event so that the organizers can be sure to get
enough ice cream and booze to keep you all happy.
Feel free to dress up or down!

OK, after seeing 3 pictures of this INCREDIBLY cute dog named herschel, i must know who he belongs to and more importantly when i can meet him. not that i would steal him or anything…
6am class = great way to start the day

11:01
kinda mad that I didn’t hit sub 11, mainly because i wasted so much time on the stupid thrusters. row was 4:05 and i felt pretty good. then the thrusters just fell apart quickly. pull ups were fairly easy and in sets of 5,3 and 2.
@Frankie: That’s Sam S’s dog.
And he’s a girl. Named Herschel.
7am back squats!! Love ’em. Also, farmer walks. Love/hate ’em.
omg sam – i must meet her, pronto!
anybody doing the warrior dash on Sunday 9/19?
Poor, gender-confused Herschel.
Could I be any more excited about the phrases, “Malcolm & Laurel wedding” and “tequila-fueled bash”? I probably can’t make it, sadly, but I’ll have Dan “FaceTime” me in with our iPhones.
The move went well and I’m beginning a vacation of sorts. Love you guys and miss you already!
@Snip: what if I bring a mannequin dressed with your CF attire, replace the head with a laptop, and we can just video conference you in?
LBBS(5): (45, 45, 95, 135, 185×3) 195x3x5Felt pretty good. Hard, but not impossible.
then…Farmers walk, 400 m carrying 2 2pd KBs, 5 burpee penalty every time you put down the weights
14:16. So. Many. Burpees.
Despite my whining to Shane and Nick about the heavy weight, I kind of liked this one–I only put the weight down when my grip really was failing. None of my recent mental wimpiness (like breaking sit-ups in Barbara…)
even if you are only eating “sorta” clean, something really chemically and fake like Mr. Softee will eff your ish UP for a good couple hours.

Did handstand wall runs with Nick, convinced Josh and Whitney to try ’em out too. Learned a neat trick from Whitney on how they teach handstand progressions in yoga — sweet stuff!
3 minutes, goal was to reach 50 within each minute. Any residual time was rest.
50 the first minute35 the second minute23 the last minute108 total
Next time 5 minutes with the goal of 30 taps each minute.
Then Reduced ROM HSPU with 2 abmats.Went for 3 attempts of max reps:18, 13, 11
Next time I’ll go with 3 sets of sub-max — either 15 or 16 HSPU w/2 abmats.
Backsquats(135×6, 185×5)5x5x235 kept it light to keep it fun.
Then some GHD sit-ups as accessory work.
