The workout demo below amazes me. The loads these two CF’ers are moving are pretty mind-blowing for a complex that is a shoulder/hip drive/leg combo that requires solid technique, speed and power. 3-4 years ago a male athlete who hit 205-225# in their final set (7th) would be considered top range/CF Games level. These guys do it in their 4th set. This sport keeps breaking barriers.

Happy 800th WOD to LuAnne! That is a lot to be proud of. Tonight was her “800 Party” and it seemed like half the gym pretty much showed up. Good energy and lots of fun for all who completed this variant on an old Open workout (12.4). Speaking of the Open, I can’t wait for Friday Night Lights!

If you are on the fence about the Open, then not only is there a scaled option this year, but you need to watch the first video below and get over your excuses.

Dave Castro Explains the Scaled Option

Also congrats to Mike M. for his first muscle-up today!

Nutrition:

Lynn is starting her own protein bar business and is taking orders from SRCF members. To place orders and for information about ingredients you can click on the order form link.

“SnoRidge friends, 
As many of you already know, I’ve been occasionally offering my protein bars to gym members with a goal of fine tuning my recipes and eventually offering them for sale.  I have finally bit the bullet and decided to go ahead with it.  As it is currently a hobby, I’d like to mainly cater to SnoRidge athletes, family and friends.  My goal is to eventually turn my passion and hobby into a business.
With the help of Tom and Michelle, the link to my order form will be posted on SnoRidge’s website.  When I receive your completed order form, I will then email you with your invoice.   Payments can be in cash or through PayPal.  For more detailed information, please take a look at the order form.  If your questions are still not addressed, feel free to email me at nfbars@gmail.com or ask me when you see me!

Attention Teens! The CF Open will have a teen division this year with two age categories (14-15 and 16-17). I strongly encourage all of our teens to register compete in the teens division and kick some butt! These divisions will be filled with competition any teenager will see in the future as they continue with CrossFit, rather than competing in the Open against old(er) people like me.

Reposting this story of Matt Chan’s biking accident as it’s an amazing story of recovery and how sometimes every little thing that happens can be a series of improbable events that if just one doesn’t happen, everything goes wrong.
