    Good day 🙂 For anyone thinking about it, the last swim WOD was a great time, don’t miss out on this one, there’s a few spots open. Happy weekend!

  6. I wish it wasn’t Hang Power Snatches and OHS after the Bar Muscle Ups! I wanted to fly and breathe under water after I did my Bar Muscle Ups.
    Ba ha ha ha ha ha ha ha, gurgle, snort, choke, gasp, spew, cackle, gfaw, chortle, tee hee hee, wheeze……:P

    Cash out
    5 min Plank (Unbroken – but that last minute almost did me in)

    Think I’m getting somewhere with the shrugging. My shoulder continues to hurt like crazy when I don’t shrug and just pull with my arms which strangely helps since it’s a nasty reminder to focus on the mechanics and not the weight!

    OHS so much easier when you don’t look at the ground, so finally making progress there too!

    1. Holy guacamole Heather!!!! A 5 minute plank deserves some kind of medal I think 🙂 congratulations!!!

    2. Now that I’ve tried the 5 minute plank and had to break it up into a gazillion sets, I realize how BAD ASS you are!!

  10. Heart? Is not easily described, but I believe that everyone I’ve met at crossfit Moncton has some degree of it.. I’ve watched different people do WODs where I think they are going to give up and they push through to finish.. Some of those may be described as perseverance? Two in particular come to mind.. Tim doing a WOD with thrusters and burpees.. And Nath doing a WOD ending with 50 burpees.. Even though they both showed perseverance to finish I believe they both exhibited heart cause there was no doubt in their eyes that the WOD would be completed.. I was inspired by both of these members and many others in the CFM family.. Does that answer the question? Hell no! Ill answer the question with more questions.. Are you born with ‘heart’? Does everyone with heart gravitate to xfit? Or does xfit develop heart? Or does it just bring out what is there under the surface? No matter the answers..I’ve found there is a very large amount of ‘good people’ at CFM.. Each day that passes at xfit, I feel more comfortable, more a part of the ‘community’ more a part of the ‘family’ .. Thank you Lora for dragging me there kicking and screaming.. Now youd have a hell of a fight on your hands to drag me out of there.. And thank everyone at CFM for making me welcome.. I hope I can inspire others as many of you have inspired me..

    Great job evening folks!

  16. WOD #1:
    5 minute Plank (2 sets) —> 3 min & 2 min. 🙂

    WOD #2:
    3 Rounds…
    9 Pullups
    6 Hang Power Cleans (115#)
    9 Front Squats (115#)
    Time —> 6:40*
    Intention was to do bar muscle-ups but modify the Snatches to HC&J and the OHS to Front Squats. Did the first muscle-up and felt some shoulder pain then wasted about a minute trying to figure out how to re-modify.

    WOD #3:
    18 Push Jerks (115#) —> 1:57
    Was frustrated and realized part way through round 3 that I forgot to do the Jerks. So I did them after.

    QOD:
    After the disappointing bar muscle-up… I didn’t have “heart” for the WOD. Definitely didn’t push myself as hard as I should.

  17. First day back post baby:).
    Weaker and restricted but feels good to be back!
    Wod with ring dips (yellow band) and 55lb for snatches and ohs
    4:24

    5min plank not sure how many sets, too many but did 1min for first set which is way more than I could do last week. Abdomen still pretty sore from the surgery.

    1. Great to see your back Sonia. I have to admit that I’m a bit PO’d….first week back after 6 or 7 week break, after giving birth, and you used more weight than I did…AND you beat my time. Sheesh!!

  18. HPS 3’s
    45-65-95-115

    WOD scaled to 9 bar dips and 95# for HPS and OHS -> 8:34

    Daily squat up to 270#

    After talking to Steph that is in the cardiology department this month, she checked and I have a heart.

  19. Hang Squat Cleans x 3
    35-55-65-70
    Struggle to make 70#, but finally got it

    WOD:
    9 Ring Dips (purple band)
    6 hang power snatches 45#
    9 OHS 45#
    Tiime: 5:17
    Weight was 60% of my max, but in hindsight, I should have used more weight. 55# would have been better I think.

  20. Hang Power Snatch x3
    15–25–35-45-50-55

    WOD:
    3 rounds of:
    9 Paralette Dips
    6 Hang Power Snatch (55#)
    9 OHS scaled to front squats(55#)

    6:17

    Palnk 5 minutes – how gross! Needs much work.
    1min – 40s – 30s – 50s – 40s- 40s -30s- 10s

    The Hang Power Snatches were going so well during strength. Yet, when I got to the workout I screwed up on my first one, and then got all freaked out. I really had to calm myself down, take a breath, and figure it out. Weird. Good workout though!
