  • So Erika, you and me gonna conquer those box jumps tomorrow?

  • Does anyone know when it is a good time to go for a massage? My lower back is trashed after power cleans, deadlifts, no abmat situps, GHD situps and four hours of kettle bells. (did not listen to my body again.)

    I don’t know if I should wait untill I can stand upright :( or should I go right now.

    Kind Regards,

    Eric

  • ….ahhhh, jumping and rowing. my two ‘greatest strengths’. yeesh.

  • I can’t make it in tonight so I tried a cfe wod, I did yesterday’s, it was challenging enough! A good change of pace, literaly!

  • @Eric
    I would try going to the chiropractor first. If the muscles are really tense a massage might be too painful. Get adjusted first and then go.

    @kimberly
    Well you definitely conquered the box jumps! Good job today.

    @b-mac
    I couldn’t agree more. Today is a perfect example of why I do not check the website before I go in. Yeesh is right!

    WOD – not a good box jump day for me. Got to 23 inches. Have gotten higher before. Just wasn’t feeling it today. 2000 meter row – 9:11. Had to rush off to a physio appt so didn’t have a chance to see how that time measures against previous attempts.

  • Box jump: 33.5″ One inch higher than last time!
    2000M Row: 8:45

  • Just got back from a workout at CrossFit Central. Got a crazy PR on my shoulder press: 85lbs! up from 78lbs back in July! I tried 80, which felt easy, but the smallest plates they had were 2.5lbs so I had to try 85lbs and it went up no problem. Failed at 90lbs, but it was close. I’ll be pressing my goal weight of 93lbs in no time…

  • @turbo
    you are amazing!!!

  • @Eric
    I second Erika’s suggestion

  • @turbo
    Awesome!

    I hit a max of 34.5″ on the box+plates setup but I’ve hit 36″ before so I attempted the tires and made it :) Totally a head game, not being able to get your feet to leave the floor is an odd feeling. And I really surprised myself with an 8:05 row time, I’m pretty sure that was all coaching though, thanks Coach!

  • @Erika I am going to see Rob tomorrow morning. Gotta get back in shape for the Barbell Certification!!

    I was really pissed because I saw the WOD and Brendan and I were just talking about the 2k row. As soon as I am back I am going to give it a go….

  • 2000 (gasp) meter row 7:40
    46″ BJ

    thanks Steve – otherwise i was going to unstrap my feet from that rower and keel over at 1600m. Im still sitting here wheezing like an 80 year old pipe smoker – good times.

  • ….7:29 for the row, bloody shins for the box jumps.

  • Congrats to you all today…I don’t want to name names in case I forget someone !
    There were some fantastic row times on the board today…some great box jumping and even some PRs out in Austin…NICE WORK PEOPLE!!

  • @chris
    LOL – I can second that! If it wasn’t for Steve pushing me on I was ready to wuss out too! Harder to quit when there is someone behind you yelling at you (in the most positive way!)

    @turbo
    Congratulations – that is awesome!
