15-12-9-6-3 reps, for time of:
Deadlift (225#/155#)
Handstand Push-up
Today was a choice of metabolic conditioning workouts. You could go with the classic CrossFit benchmark “Diane” (one of the Girls), or complete the same amount of work but in a different rep scheme of 15-12-9-6-3 of each. Why? Because “Diane” can be a huge challenge for many when the initial set of 21 is completed. With the handstand push-ups suddenly exhausted, the WOD transitions suddenly drag out and you find yourself standing there shaking out your arms wondering how you will get another one. By splitting the reps into sets with a more manageable scheme, it keeps you moving.
The Open announcement match-ups and locations have been announced (see below link). While none will be here in the Puget Sound this year, the match-ups are intriguing and the first week kicks it off with Froning vs. Fraser.

Congrats goes to a couple of SnoRidge Squatchers:
Jules competed this past weekend on Saturday in her first Olympic Lifting meet, going 5/6 on her lifts (snatch and C&J) in front a packed house in Tacoma. On Sunday she competed in the CF Teens Gauntlet hosted by CF Bellevue and finished tied for 2nd. After the weekend Gauntlet results are tallied across the country (it was held at multiple locations) she is ranked tied 1st overall in her age division (Varsity Female)!

CF Games:
We now have 18 people signed up for the Open. Let’s keep that number growing. We are 15 days away! In addition to our usual strength and Olympic Lift programming and bodyweight skill work; our daily WOD will continue to focus on conditioning designed for higher intensity intervals, max efforts or reps, varied time domains and movements in tough combinations we will likely encounter during the Open. In other words, CrossFit…
