What a weekend for our athletes that competed in the Beatdown! All of our coaches are extremely proud of the effort everyone put forth. We hope you use the multi-WOD event to pinpoint some weaknesses and continue to hammer away at them. Then, when the Open (and other competitions) comes up, you’ll be ready!
Big congrats to our two podium finishes, Lora and Corinna! Great job ladies!!

Congratulations! to Lora and Corinna, you guys are an inspiration for me. I see where all this hard work can eventually help me be healthier and physically in better shape.
Congrats to everyone who had the courage to compete and the “steel” to give it all! No doubt getting out of bed this morning was the worst wod of all, so enjoy a rest day (days??) with your foam roller

I think I could of added a plate on that box to amke it a bit more higher… PR for rebound at the bottom?
Good job Chantal!
Lora & Corinna, let me speak on behalf of the majority of the women at CFM – You both are SUCH an inspiration… Your drive, hard work and competitive nature is a real treat to watch. Not to mention it’s an even bigger treat to get to train by your side. We’re all so proud of you. Personally – I told myself the day I compete will be the day I can keep up to you two… Smiles!
Craig – you’re not too shabby either! (Kidding) YOU KILLED IT! Proud of you!
I agree with Jenn! You both amaze and inspire me
Well said!
Great job to EVERYONE this weekend at the Beatdown! You all worked your asses off and it showed!!! So proud of you all!! Nice to see both our ladies on the podium!! Way to go Corinna and Lora!! It was a great weekend!! Keep working hard everyone!
Well said Sarah – I agree totally. What a great job by everyone and congrats to Laura and Corinna. Great pic π

Looks like a fun WOD today…Hopefully I can make it over.

Haven’t done many box jumps in a while so stuck with the lower rep option and lower box. Took my time as I didn’t want to have to re-do any sets, only messed up on the first set of 21 at #8.
I really needed this WOD as I stink at box jumps especially re-bounds so it was good to practice. Also did 20 wall-balls in my WU (AMANDA) and did a 500m row (1:58.7) after the WOD. So basically today was all my goatsβ¦and it was actually fun to work on them!

Way to go CFM athletes, you were all amazing and inspiring!! And huge congrats to finalist Craig and the super-duo Lora & Corinna!
Frig… I will try not to drone on and on about this weekend but HOLY SHIT it was awesome.
Craig – I knew you were doing well at the gym but you completely blew my mind this weekend. We are so proud of you!!
Lora and Corinna – I was holding back tears of pride when you were doing the final wod. I could not have been prouder that you were our athletes.
Shane and Lance did RX this weekend. You two are monsters. So strong. The weights these guys had to use in their wods was ridiculous and they handled them like the beasts that they are. I was a bit starstruck watching them. π
Jack, Chris, Maria, Marcel, Heidi, Jeremi, Heidi, Gabe, Gillyon – awesome, awesome, awesome. The fact that we showed up for this beast of a competition says something in itself. This was no easy feat, I feel like I’ve been hit by a truck this morning and despite my major screwup with the weights on Saturday that wrecked what was left of my already low ranking, I still feel like I accomplished something huge this weekend. We were way out of our comfort zones and still kicking ass. Great job everyone, I’m very proud of us. π
Thank you Kevin, I’m very grateful for all that you invest into us every day.
*Jeremy. Sorry for the typo.
And Terry!!
Thanks Amanda. Congrats to everyone. We all did an amazing job and should be proud.

Love this picture! Amazing weekend, I can’t wait to compete again! Thank you Kevin and all the coaches for always focusing on perfect reps, this helps so much in these types of competitions! Everyone that competed gave it their all, I’m super proud of our box. Lora and Corinna you inspire me to work hard!
CFM Beatdown Blizzard folks….I loved watching you give it your all over the week end. I loved seeing Terry and Craig go head to head in that semi final. I loved Lance’s handstand pushups. I loved seeing Jeremy’s PR Snatch. Gillyon’s Box Jumps were super human. Seeing such hard workers as Corinna and Lora being on the podium at the same time was very touching. That is just to name a few special moments. All of you kept pushing forward regardless of what was going on.
The sweetest part of the weekend was seeing the CFM athletes encourage each other the whole time. They were class acts.
I was very proud of you Corinna. I feel very blessed to be in your life.

This was probably the most frustrated and in my head I’ve been in a WOD. I really didn’t think I’d get through it. I failed the 21rep part 6 or more times (I stopped counting) by stuttering, falling or completely jumping over the other side of the box. The rebounding is what got me. Really need to work on that.
Glad I finished in the end. Thanks for the encouragement 5:45.
And Lora, I wished I was finished too when you thought I was on the 3 rep round π
You did very good on the box jumps. Sorry for the miscount. I thought I was paying better attention than I actually was *face palm*. Great perseverance tonight! LOVED IT! π

Had full intentions of doing the whole thing however I fell at 11 and 18 on my 21’s, then at 8 and 11 on my 18’s so I went to the shorter version or I would have been there all night…and was concerned about peeing my pants.. I pre-warned Uncle Patrick lol
I must say though if I could get my rhythm better I think I like rebounding better!!!

Your box jumps looked spectacular!!!
Congrats on the 20# WB’s! Best way to train for the Games…get used to the 20#, and 14# are way easier π
20lb wall ball makes the 14lb seem easy? Gross. Sounds like I better try it.
and you made the 20# look so easy.. stick with it, when it comes time for 14# and 9′ you’ll kill it! π

Rest day today
Had a great time competing on the weekend with everyone. Got a 35# pr on my snatch got 170# overhead. I would say that mobility and form made every rep I did count. The only no reps where missed attempts. I will continue to focus on these more than strength going forward as they will be much more beneficial.
Thanks to all coaches for making this a priority everyday.
After all the comments yesterday I guess I will have to return the sandbag to the gym. See you all tomorrow night.
WIcked snatch PR!
So proud of your technique and form. “No reps” waste so much time and energy, when you cannot afford to spare one iota of either.
I said it all weekend, but I will say it again, I am very proud of you, Craig. π
35# PR?!? WHAT! You are a BEAST! this is going to be a GREAT year for you, I can’t wait to see what you’re going to accomplish!

Can’t wait until you get out there competing either. You have been making incredible progress! I think your entry into competition is going to light a big fire under the *cough* older guys’ butts. They are going to have to step it up even more, or die tryin’….
Yup, Spencer you’re getting so strong and fast, you’re another one that we’re anxious to see what you’ll accomplish this year!
