For 10 minutes, accumulate as much time as possible in an L-sit.
If you are competing on Saturday, please register in Zenplanner by 7:30pm tonight. I need to make the heat lists.

Anyone doing 12.2 today? I am away Saturday. I can come for any time today.
Jamie
I am going in for 5:30 to do mine.
Gabriel
Me too at 5:30
Nath
Coach! Would it be possible to have a snatch practice? Tomorrow maybe? We don’t do them very often and it would be really nice to have a refresher before WOD 12.2. 🙂
Kevin
For those competing, we have options available to work on the lift.
Blake
Kevin, is there a standard scaling % to start? Or should I just plan on the 45/75/100/120 increments?
My max from our snatch practice last month was 110 or 120.
I am hoping to try this this afternoon if there are judges around.
Kevin
Those are the women’s weights you listed. The men’s is 75-135-165-210.
You’ll be doing 30 at 75, then fighting your ass off to get a 135.
I like the rep-counter app the left judge in the video has loaded on his iPad.
Krista
Thanks Kevin, videos good for the WOD but doesn’t “teach” a snatch….was the the only option you were thinking, or is a small practice available tomorrow at some point?
Kevin :You’ll be doing 30 at 75, then fighting your ass off to get a 135.
My thoughts exactly, Not sure how I’m going to lock 135 over my head, but I’m sure I’ll have some time to try.
Darsey
FYI Kevin, I plan on doing 12.2 at the 4:15 class and ‘fight my ass off for 135’ haha
Heather S
“You’ll be doing 30 at 75, then fighting your ass off to get a 135.”
Sounds painful…especially the a$$ part 🙁
Heather S
This is the first time I’ve ever wanted to be 55+ years old – women masters #’s are 35-55-75…much more civilized!
Mario
For those who did it last night… did 10 mins feel like a short time for this WOD? Or did you get some time left to hack away at the last few heavier reps?
Kevin
Finished first 30 under 2 minutes. Took way too long on the next 30 (6.5min), and 1.5min for last couple reps.
Jo
Time on the second 30 also includes having to change your weights first which took longer than i expected. My timing on the 2nd set was slightly faster than Kevin’s by a couple reps leaving some time to change weights again before the last set.
Mario
What variations did you use? (muscle/power/squat/split)
Kevin
Muscled most of the 75’s, and powered the rest.
Mario
Yeah I saw that, having one bar and being unassisted in switching weights. Makes sense tho, would take tons of heats for the boxes to get done if everyone had 3 bars, and not everyone will necessarily have assistants for the weights. Good common sense from the good folks at Crossfit.

Really happy with the result, as I really did not expect to get through all of my second round. This is just a solid reminder that I need to practice my snatch technique if I am ever to get the heavy weight up.
Great job to everyone & thanks to the folks who cheered me on.
