Tiger Tail Rolling Muscle Massager
Guess that’s what happens when you have 4 crossfitters under one roof!! Thanks Santa ๐
Shawn Johnson
I never heard of the tiger tail. Any good? Is it better than foam rolling?
Heather, I have one of these too. ๐
“Hurts like crazy” is right! LOL

The crossfit elves were extra good to me this year, but now I am feeling the pressure to get really good. I received lifting shoes and a pair of hot pink nanos. Eek!
Ps. My quads are killing me from those 94 thrusters. Ouch!

You have some PRs in your very near future…(no pressure…haha!)

WOD @ 45#

I used the same weight as last time to see if I could do better because my score was low, relatively speaking.. But I only got 3 more reps this time. lol I’m not sure why I’m not able to do better at this one, it would be more frustrating if I didn’t like the wod. Well I like any wod that gives me a mandatory rest ๐

We need to do a QOD type thing, regarding resolutions or goals for the new year. ๐
Maddy
Great job and a 3 digit number for reps! Yeehooo! Hopefully your ‘noodle legs’ will be better tomorrow! But then again they might turn to ‘cement legs’… hopefully not!

Bought this since I couldn’t find one like the ones Kevin has at the gym. Just like the lacrosse ball and the foam roller, hurts like crazy, works like a miracle!

Nice work Rob! Great score!
For this week only, we added another Sunday class at 12pm. Please reserve your spots on ZenPlanner.
QOD: I got a 50# KB and a Tshirt that says (written upside down) “HSPU suck”.
Nick names for Shawn Johnson options. – Mr. Johnson – Shawn John – long John – shawnDa.
These are all just options. Get to know him. Then decide
Lol…. I don’t know who this anonymous person could possibly be.
I think if we were to continue the rhyming theme… Something like… Shawn “the Braun” Johnson. It’s more crossfit appropriate
Is it a faux pas to coin your own nickname?
I just noticed these nick name posts.
But I have to say “ShawDa” is a keeper
Great job anonymous !!!
Only if you say it with jazz hands
