      Josh it still needs more contrast in the comments. I like that you can see all your old comments.

        Disqus apparently has its own secret CSS that makes a mess of things.  I just pulled the gray background, and it looks pretty readable on my laptop; if it’s still tough to read on other screens, let me know,

      • Dickie

        Clearly I’m incompetent…

  • Kameron

    Did yesterday’s WOD, “Working Girl” – 6:33

    Big thanks to Will for making me do this Rx. Fran, I’ve got you in my sights!

  • Dickie

    In tomorrow’s WOD, what is Rx’d form for kb swings?  American or Russian style?

    • http://www.joshuanewman.com Joshua Newman

      Theoretically, American.

    1K Row – 3:30

    Working Girl – 8:56 – (95# – 2″ of bands)
    I load the bar with 75#. Will gives me the look of death. I load the bar with 95# and proceed to do my first Fran-like WOD (with banded pullups, not jumping) sub-10 minutes.  Actually sub-9!! Jamie, again, you are a helluva Fran coach!

    • Sean M.

      Nice work

    • Kameron

      Funny Reis, I got that same look of death. It’s quite motivational. Haha

  • Michael C

    Did “working girl” as rx’d 8:03. Thanks for the push Wil. You’re as close as it gets to super gluing my hand to the bar.

  • Steph
