CrossFit Garage Gym WoD: St. Paddy (Again)

Posted on August 23, 2009 by

I wanted to see if I’ve made any progress on this WoD, so 5 months later, I gave it another shot. My time today was a bit more than a minute faster, finishing in 17:50. Also, I did the more difficult resistance band pull-ups instead of jumping pull-ups…so all the better. Continue reading →

CrossFit WoD: Core Work

Posted on May 14, 2009 by

Didn’t really push the pace as I didn’t want to twist or screw my back during the good mornings…sit ups are feeling easier since losing 30 lbs…not as much belly to get in the way. Continue reading →

Will be very happy for the day when I have the flexibility to actually catch a clean in the front rack position…think I’ll be able to catch much bigger weights. Continue reading →
