Week in Review…

Posted on November 25, 2007 by Jason

Thank you everyone for coming to Part IV of our workshop today.  We went over all of the new lifts that we have learned.  When watching it is quite obvious everyone is paying attention and practicing because you are all looking great!  I plan on running some more seminars in the new year.  I hope that all of you unable to make it to this series will be able to attend.  We will also go deeper into the knowledge and world of CrossFit so there will be something new for everyone.  Look for future posts on dates of the next series.

We had some great PRs this week:

Jess Lasky was able to push jerk 60lbs., it won’t be long until she is doing reps with this weight!

Noreen Santa-Maria had 2 PRs, push jerking 65lbs. for 3 reps, and swing a 40lb. KB over head for the first time.

Vivian did a 95lb. Clean and Jerk for the first time on Tuesday and she did it for 5 sets of triples, we expect big, heavy things in her future!

Diana Voss got over her fear of the clean and is now able to clean the 45lb. Olympic bar with ease!

Beth D. also worked on her push jerk and went from not being able to get 45lbs. overhead to doing it 15 times…this shows the importance of practice and skill work!

Niki did a great job with "Elizabeth" doing it in 21.13 with 75lb. full squat cleans.  Her new goal is to complete a fully rx’d "Linda". 

Try your best to motivate/entertain Susie when you see her on the rower.  She is completing the 200k challenge – trying to row 200,000 meters between Thanksgiving and Christmas eve…you can do it Sue!

Great job to everyone that came in both Wednesday and Friday with the team-building challenge.  You guys all worked so hard and deserve every bit of PIE you ate for Thanksgiving.
