Another full house this morning, especially with bars flying everywhere.
Rx for weight was 95lbs. I went with 75lbs. Also, I did push press rather than Thrusters. My squats really did not count as squats.
This workout was tough on everyone.

On 9/4/2009 we did a similar WOD.
Eating—On track. Did an unofficial weight check and was up several pounds. Don’t understand what is up with that. Will try to hold of weighing again until Friday. Of course on the day I am up some pounds is also the day that Brian mentioned he could see my ribs. Maybe those two things balance each other out.
What hurts today—Bad night with my right heel. Once I got going this morning it was much better. Just a few assisted pull ups this morning. Trying to give my right elbow a rest.
I had a really hard time getting started with the thrusters (or push press) this morning. My first attempt I could not even get 75lbs up. That got better but there is something else going on in my right arm. It’s not my elbow or shoulder but there is a new pain between my elbow and shoulder that hits when I engage with weight overhead. Hard to describe.
Starting yesterday morning it is pitch black when coming out of the gym after the workout. No question that fall is here. Wonder when the snow will start.
The picture below is from a winter day last year and is one of my favorites. Brian scratched CrossFit Legacy into the ice on the front door of the gym. I use this for my PC Wallpaper during the winter.
Do you have your Shake Weight yet? Sure sounds easier and quicker than Thrusters, Cleans and SDLHP’s.
best $29.95 we could ever spend!!
oh, and Tom and I both used 65lbs – great job today Terry!
Thanks for the clarification on the weight. I have updated the blog.
Maybe we can get a bulk purchase discount on the Shake Weight.

I need to push myself harder. I should have had more than six. IAP!!! (which means I’m a Panzy)
