The Mission

100 Unbroken Wall Balls (12 min cap)

*Once broken, remainder of reps in burpees.
*A break includes stopping, rest the ball against the wall or dropping the ball. A no rep does not constitute a break.
*Also, today’s mission has an added challenge. No water, no music. Just you and the WOD. You will not die of dehydration in 10-15 minutes. You do not need music to motivate you. Dig deep and crush this workout.

Ahhhhhh!
Ahhhhhh!

    Great work morning folks!

      1. Good point Tara. I believe Jeff S would agree that the song playing in the background made the video that much better. haha.

    1. lol, I would have done the same if I was in your shoes. I have had my fair share getting the wods mixed up when first starting at CFM. We did all drop the med balls at the same time which was funny.

  3. If I was a non-Crossfitter looking to join, I think I would pick CFM solely on the head coach’s ability to give workouts great, appropriate, simple names.

    “The Mission” Hahaha love it!

    I actually do appreciate that we have kind of our own original benchmark WODs that come back, i.e. Prairie Fire, Hot Tamale, etc. (unless they were stolen from another CF box?)

    1. Agreed. A good workout needs a good name, to help us remember what we accomplished, what it did to us, and to trigger that anxious/excited/nervous set of emotions each time someone invokes its name.

    2. Hey Kevin, do you have a list of CFM named workouts that are likely to come back once in a while?

      I’d like to add them to my benchmark/PRs spreadsheet. 🙂

    Following Coach Kevin’s wisdom and listening to my body (for once) I decided to take a rest day today. I am so surprised how much that decision is bothering me (even though I know its the right thing to do) considering that a few months ago I was only doing 2x/wk. I think it’s finally in my blood, this CrossFitting lifestyle.

    Going to spend large chunks of today foam rollin’/lacrosse ballin’ my back and working on my right arm ROM.

    Already looking forward getting back at it tomorrow.

    1. That’s awesome. I remember emailing Kevin asking him to increase the Crossfit Crack dosage after a few months since joining.

    2. I will say this, learn to love your rest days, either because of the knowledge that they will do you good, and/or because you busted your ass for 2-3 days and you need it.

      1. Heather Colleen

        I’m focusing on the “it will do me good” part.

        And to your 2nd comment: “pansy” you are NOT! 🙂

      2. Im totally a big wuss. When Im not, it’s because Im about to do something stupid and Im ignorant of the results. 😛
