    Hey crossfitters! You remember the one coach that pushed you beyond your limits? The one that made you realize what you are made of? I’m producing a film about a winning high school track coach, Mr. Taylor, and his unusual teaching methodology Arete, which is Greek for intellectual and physical excellence. This film is my first independent documentary film and it reflects some of my own beliefs about mind/body. I’m so proud it and look forward to seeing it come together. Please check out the trailer and our campaign. Thanks and enjoy! Jenn Nelson

    6:15AM Beginners’
    A: Kyle Komplex: 4x(1+1) Hang Clean + 4×2 Jerks. Worked up to 135#.
    B: Mary: 5+5 2 Ab Mats, plates for the pistols (vs. March 3+3 with wall walks, pistols to a box and a black band on the pull ups)

    Koach Kyle: “I should be able to abandon an open beverage container in the middle of a WOD and return to it later UNMOLESTED.” I’m sorry, spilt coffee at 6 in the morning is tragic.

  • NickA

    Mary: 7 & 2/3. Used 2 abmats and held onto pipe for pistols.
    Coach Kyle: I maintain my innocence of spilling your coffee. Your anger-scream after realizing coffee spillage was freaking hilarious and helped motivation during the WOD. Can this happen every morning?

  • Jim S

    Dropped in at Crossfit Golden Gate in SF this morning. Nice people.

    Cindy instead of Mary…arms/shoulders still shot from Monday! 11 rounds + 3 push ups. Typing this on my phone is brutal after that WOD.

    • reisbaron

      That is a great result for being shot…well done!

      • http://twitter.com/nixster017 Nicki O.

        Thanks, Reis! Realized I managed to leave out the fact that the first 7 pull ups were strict then blue band for remainder…but I did correctly input that in BTWB :)
