“The Seven”

Posted on May 30, 2010 by Allison Bojarski

There is NO 9am CLASS TODAY but otherwise we’re on a normal Sunday schedule (10am free beginners, 11am WOD, noon WOD, 1pm WOD).
Tomorrow, Monday, May 31st, Memorial Day, we will hold 10am, 11am, and noon WODs in place of our normal Monday schedule. Monday is a Rest Day, so we’ll be offering a Black Box WOD along with make-ups of the last cycle’s WODs. I’ll be teaching.
If you’ve got any questions about the schedule, just check our MINDBODY Online scheduler, as it’s been updated to reflect this weekend’s schedule changes.

A suicide bomber killed seven CIA officers and one Jordanian officer at a remote base in southeastern Afghanistan on December 30, 2009 after posing as a potential informant reporting on Al Qaeda. Seven new stars will be etched onto the memorial wall at the CIA where every star represents grieving friends, family and colleagues dedicated to fight against the enemy, forever in their name.
The hard sell on salt
Oh my God, that’s 30,000 bees
In camouflage or Afghan veil, a fragile bond

    Please note that this particular workout is very equipment-intensive (i.e., each person needs two barbells). If I have large turnout in any of the WOD classes, I will have to run this workout in separate heats. This workout is not super-quick (times posted on mainsite of the best crossfitters out there placed it around 20 minutes), so separate heats will mean waiting around for some people.
    When you arrive to the gym, please swipe in as usual and then immediately come put your name on the whiteboard. If/when I need to run separate heats (hopefully I won’t have to), I will go in chronological order of arrival. (For example, if you were to arrive at 11:35am and start warming up early for the noon class, you’d be in the first heat of that class.)
    Also, because the 9am WOD class is canceled for the holiday weekend, let me invite EXPERIENCED members to do the WOD on their own between 10-11am while I’m teaching the beginners’ class if they’d prefer to get an early workout in. By “experienced” I mean not just how long you’ve been crossfitting but also that you have excellent form and really know your way around these movements and don’t need any help with figuring out scaling, etc.
    Thanks, everybody.

    Thanks,

    I downloaded Resident Evil 5 torrent from http://www.games-iso.com about a week ago and, despite the fact its an old game, its the best PS3 game ever made in my opinion ;)

    I played golf today, so I couldn’t make it to the box. Made up my own workout afterwards.
    Run 2 miles from home to office gym. Forgot to time.
    Press: 5×75, 5×90, 5×100.
    Ring dips, 2 sets of ten. Overhead squats, 65, 75, 85, about 5-7 reps each.
    Run home. Stop at every scaffolding, do 10 pull-ups. 60 pull-ups total, 2 miles. 21:10.
    The run home was fun. One of the things I love about Crossfit is that it encourages you to think creatively about the workouts, with the different combinations of exercises and time/rep patterns.
