We’ve added more weights to our arsenal. A whole lotta 15-pounders and a bunch of 5-pounders that will help those using only 5’s get the barbell further off the ground to mid shin!
Yoga Wednesday night at 7:30p with Lisa!

Front Squat –
205# x 5
225# x 5
235# x 3
245# x 3
260# x 1 (failed 2nd attempt)
I had marked this on the board as a PR, but that’s a mistake. I thought my previous 1RM was 255# but based on the blog, I did 265# back on 12/16/14. So…5 lbs. off PR this morning, but I’m ok with it.
Tabata Burpees – 64
Started out with a set of 12 and declined to 8’s and a few 7’s.
Jason Tue 03.24.2015 at 7:29am
225 and 235 for the 2 sets of 5, 245 and 260 for the 2 sets of 3. attempted 280 for the double but only managed a single (10# pr on my 1RM). 54 burpees.
- Andrew K Tue 03.24.2015 at 8:25am
  I guess I need to hit 281 next week! Hah!
- Jason Tue 03.24.2015 at 3:29pm
  best part about this pr is that its a 55# pr from this time last year…and i had more in me for a heavier single. progress, and fast. if only my backsquat would progress like that.
Kathy C Tue 03.24.2015 at 7:37am
Front squats – 2 x 95# max, 10# PR, 40 burpees, thanks Brett for sharing the bar!

Kevin Clarke Tue 03.24.2015 at 7:52am
Front squats 2 x 165# max, big PR for me, previous max 120#!! Thanks Mel for the push and encouragement and welcome back, we missed you! 🙂

Front Squat –
205# x 5
225# x 5
235# x 3
245# x 3
260# x 1 (failed 2nd attempt)
I had (also) marked this on the board as a PR, but that’s also mistake. I thought my previous 1RM was 240# but based on my records, I did 260# back on 12/16/14. So…reached my PR this morning, and I’m ok with it. But, if someone could un-ring the bell for me, and scratch off my PR on the board, I’m also fine with that.
Tabata Burpees – 52
If it looks like I copied and edited Bill’s post… I did.
Sam S Tue 03.24.2015 at 8:08am
Fun to join the 6:30am class today! Front squats – 5 @85#, 5 @95#, 3 @105#, 3 @110# failed third attempt, 2 @115# failed second attempt – 20# PR on that first one. 43 burpees
Andrew K Tue 03.24.2015 at 8:23am
Hit 245 for a double, pretty bummed with this as my 1 rm is 271. Just not my day. Probably had something to do with all of yesterday’s volume at 185 with the 15.4 re-test and the push jerk wod. Looking forward to PR’ing this next time! Awesome PR’s from the 530am this morning!
- Andrew K Tue 03.24.2015 at 8:24am

britt Tue 03.24.2015 at 11:38am

What is going on here?!? I leave for a week and come back to people whooping up on their PRs!?!? Holy guacamole… so awesome. This CrossFit thing might just be effective.
Dustin Wed 03.25.2015 at 10:23am
225# for 2… wasn’t feeling very strong today but I showed up, that’s what counts.
