This week’s benchmark variant was “JT”, a hero WOD of the same movements but the rep scheme is 21-15-9 for time. Breaking these into equal rounds extends the average time a bit as the transitions and muscle fatigue of the chest, shoulders and arms really slows things down.

The 2017 CrossFit Games are over and the Fittest have been crowned. What a great competition/fitness festival in Madison, WI that really went all out to accommodate the CrossFit community!

Happy 250th WOD to Kat! If you can’t figure out who it is in the pic the 250 WOD T-shirt might help give it away. If you are approaching your 100th, 250th, or 500th WOD or have earned one and don’t have a T we need to know so we can check stock or order it. WOD Club shirts are $15.
Worth a watch. The Games begin this week!
