Friday's WODs and The CrossFit Open

It's FRIIIIIDAY!!! Maybe it's just me, but it seems like this has been a long week and my body is very tired. Actually, I was told by many of my 5:30 a.m.'ers that they're feeling the wrath of Wednesday's workout, "Suzanne." Needless to say, none of them were extremely thrilled to revisit their old friend "Helen." What doesn't kill us will only make us stronger, right...right??

Friday
5:30 a.m.
3 Rounds:
-Run 400 m.
-21 Kettlebell Swings
-12 Pull-Ups

Some of the ladies working through the kettlebell swings.
Check out Justin and Kirsten working on their burpees.

*Everyone improved their times and many increased their kettlebell weight.

Overhead Squats

The 7:00 a.m. group got the pleasure of completing the first WOD of the 2012 CrossFit Open. For the next 5 weeks, my boot campers and the athletes of CrossFit Turlock will be completing the CrossFit Open workouts on Friday's. Workouts are announced on Wednesday and will challenge every aspect of one's fitness. I can't wait to see how we all stack up next to the rest of the Crossfitters around the world!

Friday

Complete as Many Reps as Possible in 7 Minutes of...

BURPEES!!!

7 minutes of hell. Oh, I mean burpees.

Congratulations to all the 7:00 a.m. athletes for braving the first Open WOD. I, along with the rest of our athletes that registered for the Open, will be completing the workout tonight at 5 p.m. Feel free to stop by and spend your Friday evening cheering on your fellow CrossFit Turlock athletes. I'm shooting for at least 100. Wish me luck!!

This is going to be my mantra this evening.
