Double unders are the skill of the week. They are a great way to warm up, as they use the entire body. They require agility, coordination, balance, speed, and accuracy to execute, and can improve all of these elements, as well as stamina, and endurance depending on use. This week is a great opportunity to get your first double unders, or make your technique more efficient. Learning and practicing this week’s skill can literally make you run faster and jump higher.

12:41, Purple Dips, 30kg!
Nice work this a/m…I need to get a bad-ass photo like that instead of the geometric pattern I have (although I do like red)
Yeah! How you get a bad-ass (or any-ass) photo on your profile? Geometry is boring.

It’s free and easy. I recommend it.
DL: 170kg
WOD: 9:01 Rx
WOD: 11:09 rx
DL: 130kg (need to work on form on multi-rep sets)
WOD: 13:14 Rx – Terrible! Still having cardio issues….can”t seem to get my breath back or my HR down once I’m gassed,…which is pretty soon into the workout….going to have to do some cardio on my “off” days
come do endurance with us!
D-E-D Lift — 65kg
WOD — 10:30 (25kg push press, red band for ring dips)
The air quality seems pretty bad today. Hoping it will be cool and dry next time we do this one…the 15-degree(ish) temperature jump from the street into the gym was brutal!
Way to start Monday off, 5:30 folks!
Fun stuff for my 2nd group workout ever – and MUCH better than the “Eva” on Friday – which I’m STILL sore from. Thanks so much to Stacy (and the rest of the class) for her patience in teaching the correct form & technique for…. everything, really. Slow time for the WOD, but that will improve, I’m sure.
Hey you came back after Eva, that’s a feat in and of itself. You’ll be amazed at how quickly you make progress…keep it up!
deadlift- 102kg
wod- 9:23 w/ red band on the dips
there was no way i could do 28 of them in the wod, but i got my first unassisted ring dips today!!

Woooo Hooooo! Nice stats girl! Wish I was there to cheer you on :)
Great job Haley!
102kg! WOW
9:23 with only that little red band! WOW
Congrats! That’s awesome!
102kg on the deadlift, DAMN kid!
80kg on deadlift, i was trying to keep up with Brit!
9:01 on the WOD, but subbed running for 125M row (which is faster than running), rx would have taken me into the 10:00′s
