Crossfit Santa Clara Rest Day, .Com WOD is Michael!

So I was scrolling through Crossfit websites and info as usual today and I came across an article titled "Beginner's Mind" which I thought directly related to many of your situations. Check out the article, the author makes some valid points. I have watched so many of you break through the mental "mind fuck" it is unbelievable! I am rarely more happy than when I see someone learn a new skill, become more proficient at a skill, or come back after giving up on a skill.

Those of you who show up everyday and test your capabilities (mentally and physically) will benefit tremendously, many of you already have.

Crossfit Santa Clara is closed Tomorrow

Speaking of skills, check out how to do a calf raise, very functional! It takes a lot of skill to perform this movement. (for those of you who don't know me I am being absolutely sarcastic)

Workout for Tomorrow:

"Michael"

Three rounds for time of:
Run 800 meters
50 Back Extensions
50 Sit-ups

In honor of Navy Lieutenant Michael McGreevy, 30, of Portville, NY, who was killed in Afghanistan June 28.

Today's activities:
Warmup: run round the block (.4 miles) w/Ben (10yo as of Thursday!) in my new Puma H-Streets.. Felt like I was flying, but of course I was not!

WOD: AMRAP 5 thrusters, 7 HPC, 10 SDHP

Last time: One SDHP short of 8 rounds, using 52lbs
This time: 5 rounds plus 5 thrusters, using 66lbs

Jason, 14 rounds is awesome ;-) All the results today look great, especially all the people doing Rx'ed.

See you Monday after Michael!
