Eric is out of town for a few days and he put ME in charge of the blog…silly Ginger. So I’m going to start off my temporary control of the blog with something equally silly: GIFs. (aka: moving pictures)
Hopefully many of you are not living under rocks and have seen the blogs such as whatshouldwecallme.tumblr.com and howdoiputthisgently.tumblr.com. If not I highly suggest wasting some time laughing at those. BUT save some time for the CrossFit version. If you’ve ever wondered why there is an absurd amount of noise coming from the coach’s office it’s probably due in part to thiscrossfittinglife.tumblr.com
Some of my favorites include:
WHEN YOU RX A WORKOUT…
WHEN YOU GET A PR BUT NO ONE SEES IT
WHEN YOU’RE THE LAST PERSON FINISHING THE WOD AND YOU FEEL LIKE DYING
Everyone else is like…
But you’re like…
Happy WOD-ing!

Eric put YOU in charge? Oh boy…
Oh mannnnnnn
The polar bear gif is my favorite :-D
George Michael Bluth is my spirit animal.
Snatch DL: 60 kg, but my grip was awful.
WOD: 10:38 Rx.
Hope everyone had a good 4th!!
Yep… I have looked like that polar bear many times… including this morning!
Deadlift: 60kg
WOD: 55kg 16:33 RX
Snatch DL: 90kg
WOD: 10:53 RX @81kg
July goal: post to comments after every wod
If only I had “like” buttons on comments.
Ugh…. 4th of July hangovers are no fun.
Snatch DL: 95kg
WOD: 10:53 Rx @ 85kg – I could’ve shaved minutes off my time, and I not been trying to keep myself from getting sick. I’m never WODing hungover again. Lesson learned!
I’ve made that vow a few times, and I always meant it.
SnDL: 60kg PR. Probably could’ve done more, but I hadn’t worked on them in a long time so I started too light.
WOD: 11:18 Rx+ (I did 60kg on the DL).
Erika finally figured out how to make my weird, disproportionate legs do what they are supposed to in a DL!
Snatch DL: 100 kg
WOD: 9:05 Rx @ 85kg
it was hot but fun (once i regained feeling in my thumbs!)
ok ok ok. Jen W. (my wife) has finally harangued me into posting my shizz here on the page…plus the post today was awesomer than usual.
SDL – 125kg I couldn’t hold on to the bar above that weight.
WOD – 8:47Rx @ 85kg. Felt great and worked through the burpees faster than usual!
Yay!
SDL: 60kg
WOD: 9:11 w/27kg DL and 8kg KB
Most unbroken burpees EVAR!
SDL: 130kg.
WOD: 9:04 Rx (85kg)
I no longer trust myself to come up with goals unsupervised.
Someone needs to test Mandy for roids.
JUST KIDDING! Your hard work as a coach and as an athlete is paying off!
What did the 4th of July fun say to the Crossfitter? Chocolate chip banana bread goggles. I won’t even list off the other goodies here, and yes, it was worth it. If it weren’t for my sister telling me how great the WOD was, I would have opted for Hot Yoga tonight. Nep. (Like Yep, but Nope. I just made that up)
Snatch DL: 80kg
WOD: 13:42 RX @73kg
Snatch DL: 130 KG
WOD: 7:51 RX + @ 90 KG – truth is I was too lazy to strip plates.
SDL: 75kg – PR
WOD: 13:46 @ 68kg and 24kg KB. Rx weight, but couldn’t swing the kb overhead for rounds 4 and 5. First time with a 24kg kb in a WOD. Definitely got the better of me. DLs went well, especially after I switched to the asymetric grip. Burpees unbroken. Thanks for the coaching Stacy!
SDL: 80kg
WOD: 10:00 @ 70kg and 20kg KB. The 24kg KB is brutal for me. Gotta get my tiny self to work up to it.
SDL: 85 KG
WOD: 10:16 @ 75KG (RX)
