It’s a Crossfit love story! Lynn & Stefan you guys are the best and I’m SO happy for you! Congrats!!
Congrats and much luv to the both of you!!!
whoa! congrats guys!
Congrats! Yous guys rock!
Last night I went to bed excited because I was looking forward to wodding with the 6AM crew. Unfortunately when I woke up this morning at 4:30 I didn’t feel well, so I hit the snooze button. Before I knew it, it was 5:20 and this surge of anger began flowing through my body. I sat up fast, quickly changed, skipped breakfast, and ran out of the house with all of my gear which is always a HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE EVERY DAY.
I skipped the strength portion and waited for the WOD. I finished at 7:39 w/245lbs and a 28” box. I decided to up it a little bit with the weight and height to impress BV. He doesn’t like me because I’m ________.
Good job Rhab.. but dude…Gran trabajo pero tienen asuntos… Ayos mio!!! ¡Comience tomando sus vitaminas!!!
Finally time to eat. I was good up to this point though from last nights pizza and cookies.
Doing a 3×10 proved to be difficult. 10 reps is a lot more than 5! I could only do 8 reps @ 50#
Did DL’s all unbroken just for BV @ 115# finished in 10:21
Enjoy the beautiful autumn day!
3:53 rx, feels nice to be able to do a prescribed wod again
“feels nice to be able to do a prescribed wod again” — Welcome back Jon!!!
I agree – it’s been awhile since I could do the wod without modifying it.
Congratulations Stefan & Lynn…. #LifeIsLove
Gregg: what can I do instead of DL tonight? Lower back is fine now, but last 3x we did DL, the spasms returned. I have a Dr. appt coming up, but in the meantime…I could always continue to go REAL LIGHT, but, just putting it out there.
Front Squat
alright. sounds good.
Told ya.
I haven’t been that enthusiastic about my workouts lately so I decided to just embrace it. I’m going 75-80% effort all week. It started yesterday with “Fran” and by golly, I was successful at NOT giving my all today.
Hope to be re-energized by the end of the week. READ THIS
Thanks for sharing BT Express :: ““Recovery is when you are actively engaged in something whose purpose is to keep your body functioning.””
Yoga? Step-class? Pilates? LOL!!! Guess Mondays can be considered a “recovery” day…
I’m so grateful to have both of you part of this community. You are both tremendous people who bring so much joy and value to the world. It’s incredible to see what opportunities can be born from the unexpected.
Congrats and big hugs and kisses!
Xoxo

Congrats, Stefan and Lynn. You two look very happy together
Congratulations guys! Michele and I wish you both the best.
Thanks Dana, and Ben that was a really good article!
3×7 @ 55#. This is the first time I have done presses since last spring for various reasons – schedule, shoulder injury etc.. I was surprised to see that I wasn’t too far off from where I was last spring – gives credence to the theory that sometimes you have to go backwards to move forwards! 11:52 115# DLs and 20″ box plus 25# plate – next time I won’t shy away from the 24″ box.
40# 3×10…coming back from the bursitis so I’m starting out light.
105# deadlifts, 24″ box, 9:27.
Love the article Ben. I try to incorporate the idea of Rest days and Active rest days in all intro classes I teach. A rest day doesn’t have to been a sit on your ass day and I’m not saying we shouldn’t have them, b/c there are times we do. But what is amazing about CrossFit is that in enables us to do things like rock climb, go for hikes, ride a bike, or go for a swim. These are things some people can’t even imagine doing with their current health conditions. I just went for a long hike at Jokey Hollow the other day and it was so enjoyable getting lost in the wilderness like I did as a kid. We all need to remember to take these days b/c CrossFit makes us better people, but REST DAYS make us BETTER CROSSFITTERS!
After a long 6 days off. 105 for 2×10 and 110 2×5. 225#, 28″ box , 5:37
