Looking down on the final woman’s heat during the 2008 CrossFit Games. There have been a lot of changes to the venue and it promises to be an amazing event. We’re still looking for a few volunteers to man the booth. email info@crossfitnsc.com for availability
Rest Day, well unless you are Paige. Then you stroll into the gym after a 3 week vacation and do all 3 workouts for the last chance qualifier into the CrossFit Games all in the span of about 6 hours. That was seriously amazing to watch Paige, we’re glad to have you back.
At a combined 13′ Brian and Matt have to move their body a long way for many of the CrossFit foundational movements, but you never hear them complain they just charge each workout with a reckless abandon. The great thing about that is you know every time you work out with them you are going to get pushed.
I’m guessing 2/3 of part 2 of todays WOD was not fun for them.
Workout: part 1) pick em
pick 1 strength move (use a working load or go for a 1RM

30 - BW back squats
run 200

Annie keeping the ROM legit all the way to the end of her pull ups during Trevor. Not to say that others weren’t but it always seems like Annie pushes the envelope just a little more during her workouts. In my opinion this is what chest to bar should look like.
