Friday 27, February 2009

We all know how much we love the ladies, so today we have

"Karen" - we all know this lovely lady, 150 wall balls for time. Oh but once again, not so fast. It is me we are talking about, so for this WOD we have two choices of "Karen".....

Karen on the Run
So, in short every time you rest 3 + seconds or the ball hits the ground, you run 400m.

or

Karen the Farmers Wife
With this one, every time you rest 3 + seconds or the ball hits the ground, you do a 400m farmers carry.

Score is time and how many 400m's we do. :-)

Yeah, we love it! We love it!

16:29 with 4 laps of running. The 10 o'clock crew did them outside on the east window wall in the sun. Then sat there for another 20 minutes talking about In n Out and other food stuff.

Just under 10 minutes.

Yep. I have got IN n Out on the brain now, and pizza, and for some sick reason, corn dogs!!!

Dave- great idea to do the wod outside in the sun!!!

I find warrior athletes to be scary and intimidating.

Alena said...

Starting a "library" of items for people to read and look at - Warrior Athlete is my first in what I hope to be a long series of refrence material for us all to enjoy and share. I know you can get it on line, but there are some of us who can't seem to find the time to sit down and read the first 21 pages at one time. :-)

Jay - that's because you're a sissy :-)

Great article coach Ord explains that there are many different fitness programs. Many focus on the beach body (Jay these are what your looking for!) but almost all fitness programs leave out the training of the mind, which is a crucial element in developing the warrior athlete.

It also talks about finding your Brassring, which is a goal that you have to set both your body and mind to achieve.

My Brassring is to earn my Trident.

What is yours?

Chandler W said...

FMP toommorrow at 10....what will coach Ord post. The suspense is killing me.

Travis Coombs said...

Chandler - excellent Brassring. If I could turn the clock back about 11 years, I would join you. In all sincerity - I'm proud to have made your acquaintance. I wish you all the best & know you have the drive to achieve your goals.

Would love to join you all in the FMP, but I've got a date to go skiing tomorrow.

Cheers!

I just had so much fun dropping the ball!

Excellent WOD!

It was really nice to spend time with fellow BBCrossFitters at Dave's Eclipse Pizza.
The Paleo pizza was excellent!
Alena, thanks for spearheading this gathering.
