Very interesting analysis of the past few CF Games using the new Regional and qualifier format. Had they used this system last year we would have seen a far better overall representation at the Games for both men and women.

Today was our traditional annual “12 WOD’s of Christmas” workout and almost everyone figured it out and fell into the rhythm of it. The first five exercises are a light “barbell complex” where the sequence of movements progress together. It allows you to “link” them so that after you complete the Deadlifts you transition to the Power Cleans then Push Presses, Thrusters, and Sumo Deadlift High-Pull without putting the barbell down. I love this combination of exercises for a “12 Days WOD” because it keeps both the reps of each movement and load low, and the workout is about moving fast and and not getting “stuck” at any one exercise.
We also had the Outside the Box paleo food truck here and our Ugly Sweater Holiday Potluck party. With a turnout of over 60 people (50 doing the WOD) there was a ton of great food, terrible sweaters and good times. Thank you to everyone for patiently dealing with waiting until your wave for the workout could go, and for those who brought food to share. We will hope to have the Outside the Box food truck back out for our next event, maybe at the end of the Open.

Overhead Squat 3-3-3-3-3 & Skill Work & Checkout WOD
Skill Work
12 Minutes to practice skills you need work on, not the ones you love to work on, the ones you NEED to work on.
If you can kind of do the skill, now work on form & range of motion, not weight.
Example: double unders, kipping pull ups, butterfly pull ups, muscle up progressions, handstands, handstand walk, handstand push up progressions, or choose a Lift (use perfect form).
This is not hang out and visit time, this is practice time.
Checkout WOD
As many reps as possible in 2 mins of:
Overhead Squat (75#/45#)
Rep is complete when full depth is achieved at the bottom of the squat (below parallel), and both hips, knees, and elbows are fully extended at the top.
Optional choose Max Reps OHS or max effort 1k Row.
