Even backwards it’s still filthy. Ten exercises of fifty reps each with practically no load is some rough conditioning work. This is a reversed version of the classic CrossFit “chipper” that we don’t do very often (maybe once a year) but this combination does slow it down a bit by starting with the burpees and wall balls early. Either way is misery.

Quote of the day: “You know Rich Froning can snatch this right?” ~ Rob V. to Justin during yesterday’s back squat strength WOD as they were squatting 300 plus pounds.

An AMRAP like today’s forces you to hustle to get back to the barbell. Choosing your own load to manage sets of 5 helps with scaling correctly to allow you to lift properly without too large a load and keep moving.

I just found out about a fundraiser WOD for autism that is being organized by CF legend Josh Everett (one of the original CrossFit firebreathers) for this Saturday. Affiliates from all over the country are doing this to show their support and help raise funds for early detection of autism and treatment. We are going to program this short 5 minute workout sometime next week for the gym (doing this on short notice this Saturday would minimize participation vs. running it all day for all classes). Anyone who wishes to donate to support the cause and get the details on the workout then go check out “Lift Up Luke“.

This Sunday is the SRCF Baby Shower for Christa and Kyle and Meghann and Derek. Details below:

10/20 Baby Shower:

When: Sunday Oct. 20th from 4-6pm
What: Dual SRCF baby shower for Meghann and Derek and Christa and Kyle
Where: Amy will be hosting the shower(s) at her gym (Mt. Si Gymnastics)
What to bring: This is a pot-luck event. Let Amy, Deb, or Frank know if you plan to come and what you can bring.

Quote of the day: “The key to all physical training is intensity.”

Rocky Balboa dropped in for weighted pull-ups today. “Yo Adrian!”

Got your Halloween costume yet for the Frankenchipper WOD? Times running out and the WOD is Saturday 10/26!

This applies to both snatches and cleans. Fix the early arm bend in both lifts and the increase in power will see your loads go up.

In our gym we post the results and loads/modifications for every WOD everyday. We give you a logbook during OnRamp. We list all of our programming on beyondthewhiteboard.com daily to post on the web if you don’t like to write. Are you keeping up with logging your workouts, training, and tracking your performance? If not, then how do you know whether you are making progress or give you opportunities to set new goals? If you fell off from doing it or never started, then start and make it a habit. It only takes about a minute a day.
