CrossFit Resolve - Forging elite fitness in Brisbane

Saturday 2 June 2012

In teams of 4, as many reps as possible in 19 minutes of:

Row 250 m

Overhead Squat 30 kg (20 kg)

Rest

Box Jump 24" (20")

Post reps to comments.

 

 

 It is fair to say that, given an opportunity to rate my attractiveness out of 10 (with a suggested range of between 8 and 10), the 5 pm Friday crew failed to reach a consensus . . .

 

We must train from the inside out.  Using our strengths to attack and nullify any weakness.  It's not about denying a weakness may exist but about denying it's right to persist.

Five rounds for max reps:

Run 200m

1 minute Kettlebell Swings

1 minute Double Unders

Rest 2 minutes

Post reps to comments.

 

 

And so begins the 500 rep "Gymnastic June" challenge . . . Accumulate 100 reps of each of the following during the month of June: Wall Balls/Handstand Push-ups/Pull-ups/Ring Dips/GHD Sit-ups . . . Discuss scaling options with a trainer before commencing and keep track of your progress on the whiteboard . . . 

 

It is important to know that at the end of the day, it's not the medals you remember.  What you remember is the process - what you learn about yourself by challenging yourself, the experiences you share with other people, the honesty, the training demands - those are things nobody can take away from you whether you finish twelth or you're an Olympic champion.

Stand up to your obstacles and do something about them.  You will find they haven't half the strength you think they have.
