    Yes, it was 20 before. We raised it during the Games, but we’ve been noticing recently that people have not been registering for Saturdays at all. With a class size of 20, we are now able to program Saturdays more effectively.

    My 1st time trying thrusters. I went from no squats in a WOD to 20# thrusters this week so really happy with that! The other thing that i’m happy about is that this was the 1st time that I did WOD’s on 3 consecutive days. Smells like an unlimited membership soon… 🙂

    QOD – A few accessories for my new MacBook and kitchen gadgets. I confess i’m a gadget geek… especially kitchen, travel and camping stuff!

      1. Maddy

        And this addict is starting to buy Crossfit t-shirts and gear… which I used to think was a little corny 😉

      2. Lora

        HAHA….the “crossfit gear” out there is endless. Happy shopping!
        And I agree with Gillyon. You’re hooked, my friend 🙂

      3. jeff

        I resent that comment Maddy, as I’m adorned in CF stuff from head to toe!! lol.. i’ll be making fun of you with your new gear on!!

      Thrusters can be nasty on the shoulders. Great job on the WOD. Smart to drop the weight and save your shoulders for another day. 🙂

  32. Lora

    WU x 1 (wallballs instead of squats)

    Great job 5:45 crew! Some heavy thrusting and fast times all around!

    6. jeff

      congrats on your OHS pr.. much easier from the rack? it looked solid glad I was there to see it.. and awesome time on the WOD.

  33. jeff

    mob
    WU x 1.5 like it this way, forced me to do 15 unbroken pullups, pushups etc..

    member challenge.. thinking going all out would put too much strain on the knees (they don’t like the snap to lockout yet!) so started (after about ten minutes of talking to myself! lol) at what I thought was going to be a leisurely pace and felt strong all the way through till it mattered, my sprint finish was non existent tried to start it with 40 seconds left and had nothing in the tank! still very happy with this number as haven’t done too much rowing of late..
    910M
    note on rowing, this was as close as I’ve come to meeting that infamous clown and seriously considered dropping out of the class at this point!

    Wod @95 started with three thrusters and realized wasn’t a great move for me yet so switched up to push press

    5:35

    1. Lora

      Your row was AWESOME! You did great on the WOD too (for someone who was wrecked from the row only a few minutes before the “3-2-1…GO!”)

    2. Maddy

      Haha! I love the mental talk that went into that row! I think you made the right choice… hopefully your knees will agree 😉

      1. Maddy

        Love the pic! Looks like you’ve got some serious negotiating going on with Santa. Sorry but I don’t think he can bring you new knees 🙁
