    Nice meeting you, too, Krista. Fun with the teacher crew.

    If I were a crossfit superhero, my name would be the Hebrew Hammer (only Jewish superhero I know). I would be able to do an unlimited DUs at lightning speed. I would be a magical, benevolent superhero, so I would grant Jane the junk in her trunk she has always wanted.

    I have to do some thinking about what my super hero name and power would be. Hmm…

  17. Jane

    My CrossFit Superhero name would be “Bootylicious” and my superpower would be that I could “Front Squat all y’all’s Mamas”!

    1. Jane

      I crack villains like walnuts in my giant butt cheeks! My butt cheeks also shoot lightning bolts that help small butted people lift heavy squats! MOUAH HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!

  19. Jonathan Ross

    My superhero name would be John Gonzales and my superpower would be that my shirt just disappears rather than me wasting WOD time in having to rip it off.

    Yeaaaaahhhh JG!

  21. Kevin

    I would be Optimus Prime. Then I could wear my shirt that says “Don’t workout on machines. Be one” and it would be true.

  22. Kevin

    Ok, fine…

    I’ll be “The Incredible Bulk”. Every time I deadlift, I put on a pound of muscle.

  23. krista

    i think i’d be ‘Hefty 1/2 Pint’
    my superpower would be that i can grant all folks under a buck fity the power to put bodyweight over their head and lift at least twice their bodyweight off the ground

  25. Ed K

    Latasaurse Flex, King of the gym with Lats that make my pullups look like I’m flying?

    I still say, unstoppable force- aka Mikko Salo

  26. Guy

    I am โ€œViagrus Maximusโ€! I can do โ€œNasty Girlsโ€, โ€œEvaโ€, โ€œDianeโ€, etc., etc., all. day. long. Bring it bitches!

    2. Lora

      LOL!! There is one “nasty girl” you forgot…..

      I’ll give you a hint. Her name starts with “J” and ends with “ane”. Word on the street is she’s got buns o’ steel ๐Ÿ˜‰

  28. Marco

    I would be burpee and it has nothing to do with my ability to do burpees……..and there isn’t a move in crossfit called Fartee………but maybe there should be.

    **I liked this WOD. First time with floor wipers. I’m a fan. Did the entire WOD with double unders (another first). DUs slowed me down but the double under gods granted me one full set of 15 unbroken in my fifth round. ๐Ÿ™‚ **

    45-55-65-76-85(3-2)

    WOD: 85# for floor wipers:

    6 rounds + 4 floor wipers: I probably should have used 75# instead of 85#. Thanks Lora for always making me push harder. Your floor wipers were solid today. I had a difficult time making contact with the bar every time. Good job on the double unders as well!!

    Thanks Sonia for coaching!

    Good job 3:15 p.m. crew!

    Form getting better but still over thinking it.

    WOD:
    AMRAP 12min
    10 FloorWipers
    15 DUs
    20 squats

    5 rounds
    Love this one: Same rounds as Dec but more weight and did DU instead of singles so pretty happy with that ๐Ÿ™‚

    800 m run

  43. Gabrielle

    WU – 1 hour hike with the dogs + mobility

    WOD AMRAP 12min
    10 Floor Wipers (75lbs)
    15 DUs
    20 squats

    5 rounds and 14 DUs

    Just short of my PR of 6 rounds but used a heavier weight with plates that weren’t high enough for me to slide under the bar ( so more work to pick the bar up and put it down) All in all, I’m happy and I really enjoyed doing this one one my deck in the sunshine ๐Ÿ™‚

    I must say I thoroughly enjoyed reading everyone’s superhero names and powers – I laughed a lot actually ๐Ÿ™‚ My superhero name would be the Goat Destroyer and my power would be to convert all goats to favorite exercises… That’s the best I could come up with… I thought of the Cleaning Lady – cleaning lady by day and cleaning super power by night, but seriously, cleaning is just not something I enjoy or consider heroรฏc ๐Ÿ˜‰

    Have a great weekend everyone!
