In case you had not heard yet, the owner of those guns in the picture above turns 41 today. Oops!!
WOD
AMRAP in 20 minutes,
250 meters row or 200m run
15 ring rows
15 squats (butt to medicine ball)
7 dumb bell power clean and jerk
One way to create a new standard is by taking the "old" one and making it more difficult to create a "new" one. It today's case we are creating the new standard with the squat by using the medicine balls (basketballs). Drop them hips down between those legs instead of bending forward at the waste and plopping down on the dynamax balls. Head up, chin out like someone is gonna sucker punch it and weight back on the heels. And for those with the propensity to look down at your pretty shoes while you squat, I gave the coaches the okay to start using the playground balls used for Carole's Kidz Korner to toss at you as you squat. So, if you feel a bonk on the top of your head from a playground ball, it's because you were looking down instead of up where you are suppose to be. If you were looking up then you'd catch it as it came at ya.

Birthday Carole. Thanks for the invitation to the gun show.
And thank you Jim for being who you are to me. My very best friend and partner for life. I am so happy to be a part of what we do together at CrossFit but more so for being US, just two people who happen to fit together like a puzzle.
Today, I have been wished Happy Birthday my more people than I ever have in my life and I have to say that I am the one who is truly blessed to have each and everyone of you in my life.
Thank you for making my day so very special!
Carole
