The fittest men and women on the planet

Push press
5-5-5-5-5
+
Row 500
3x
7 handstand pushups

Check out this sweet Crossfit commercial by Adidas. Its getting big time.

Body shape may affect mental acuity.

I recently had this discussion with someone, who do you think are the fittest people? Why are they the fittest? Do you think the 2010 Crossfit games slogan “fittest on earth” holds any weight?

Is anyone interested in going in on another cow. Let me know next time your in or shoot me an email.

Back to Business

Tuesday 7/20/10

The word brutal does not do this event justice.

“Barbara”
5 rounds each for time of:
20 Pullups
30 Pushups
40 Situps
50 Air squats
Rest presicely 3 minutes in between each round.

Coaches corner: Your time is the total time it takes you to complete the workout including the rest breaks. The clock will continue to run throughout the whole workout so note the time when you are finished with a round and start the next round 3 minutes after.

Sorry for the website the past couple days. The iphone battery is not as good as it used to be and a lack of computer access made it hard. Thanks to my mom and my best looking friend Tom for helping me do it over the phone. Im back now and have some good stuff for the site.

The crossfit games this past weekend were truly amazing. If you were not one of the few people that either watched if or were there in person I really hope you go on the website and check out the archives of the event, especially the last individual event. All the athletes put everything they had on the table and it showed. Congrats to all the winners and anyone who competed.

Our photo and video editing master, Wade L, made another awesome video for you guys. Its of our firefighting duo Brian C and Wade T at the fire fighter olympics at Crossfit Santa Clara this past week. Once again great work Wade. Great work by the guys in the video as well, those were tough workouts.

Memorize this there will be a quiz tomorrow. The periodic table of meat!

Great job guys!

Wednesday 5/14/10

Wade takes his turn on the prowler during the tie break throwdown

Deadlift
3-3-3-3-3
+
Death by 10m starting at 7sprints

Coaches corner: on the deads pull each rep from a dead stop, no bouncing the weights off the floor. Death by 10m is 1 additional sprint per minute until you can no longer complete the set number of reps in that min. So say on the 20th minute you can only complete 18 sprints then the workout is over.

Wade and Brian did great today in the team competition. They really represented us well, be sure to tell them great job next time you see them. Pictures and video to come. Im proud of you guys, great job.

Remember the I will be teaching the 5:30 6:30 class on friday and all classes after that will be subbed by Casey due to us being at the crossfit games. I got a preview of Mikko Salo working out today at crossfit santa clara, its going to be an awesome weekend!
