*5 Burpees every minute starting at 1 minute.
This should be a light/medium weight. Scale as needed, and scale the number of burpees if needed so that you have plenty of time in each minute to perform barbell reps. This WOD is based off programming that came up recently at CrossFit New England where they call it “Air Force.” We changed the Sumo Deadlift High Pulls to Power Cleans.

We loved all of Asta F.’s photos of Andre B. at Fight Gone Bad so much, we decided to post all of them.

Join Jacyln K. For Yoga at the New Time of 9am TOMORROW!
Jaclyn has always had a love for fitness and overall health. She started practicing yoga as her source of recovery both physically and mentally. Her love for yoga drove her to get her first certification in 2007. Since, she has been teaching both Bikram and Vinyasa in the tri-state area. With her extensive study in many lineages of yoga, Jaclyn takes aspects from each creating a flow both challenging and accessible for everyone.
For Jaclyn, CrossFit and yoga are a brilliant team. She uses her yoga practice not only for added mobility but for strength, focus, and breath work as well. When Jaclyn works with athletes, she will gear her class around these principles while still keeping things light and fun in the same spirit that a CrossFit class has. Whether you’re a seasoned practitioner or brand new to a yoga mat, Jaclyn will offer plenty of options so everyone feels challenged yet still comfortable in this Vinyasa flow class.
When: NEW TIME Thursdays at 9am
Cost: Free as part of our Unlimited Membership option, or counts as one of your regular group classes
