Check out the height on the Wall-Balls
JZ-way to conquer the evil 20 pounder!
We all remember your first experience with that thing!


W.O.D. 11.3.09
Get ready to run!!!!

"Kelly"
5 Rounds for time:
Run 400 meters
30 box jump, 25/21 inch box
30 Wall ball shots, 20/14 pound ball

Community notes:
And the winners for the "no sugar" month are...Chris P. and Mike Fab! Congratulations, both gentlemen will receive a month of free membership at CrossFit KoP!! Journals can be picked up at the box.

We will be testing out a new class concept. I have had numerous inquiries for a CrossFit "lite" class. We know that regular CrossFit class is scalable for all ages, shapes and sizes; but to many there is still an intimidation factor. This class will be 30 minutes in length and be watered down for the beginner. If you know anyone who has been wanting to test out CrossFit and see what it's all about, now is the chance. We will be testing out this "lite" concept at 7:30PM on the following Tuesdays...November 10th, November 17th and November 24th. This is open to existing members and will be $15 for non-members to check out.

Is anyone interested in a kipping workshop? We have hosted two in the past, both have a been success. If there is interest with some of the new members we would be happy to host another one. Please post to comments if you have interest.

  2. I am interested in the Kipping workshop, but my schedule is tight. I can only do 4:30 on weekdays.

    Thanks for the great instruction last night. It's awesome that you guys continually improve yourselves and then bring the knowledge back to us.

  5. Hey Aimee...
    Are you going to make a flyer for the "lite" Class? I may have people (less adventerous and kick-ass then myself :-)that would try it that way! One suggestion...what about calling it crossfit for beginners or something like that, instead of lite? Just a suggestion :-)

  9. I would be interested in a kipping class, but do you need to be able to do a pull-up?

    Congrats to the winners of the no sugar challenge!

  15. Steph- Thanks for the feedback, I will be putting a flyer together this week for the "CrossFit" lite class...or whatever name we come up with. We are also going to offer a Free class for the public on 11/21 at 9AM, so I will include that on the flyer as well.

    Kristin- When I learned to kip I didn't have a pull-up. Practice and discipline go a long way when learning a new skill.

  16. I'd be interested in a kipping workshop.

    Congrats Mike and Chris!

  17. Aim is correct. You do not need to be able to do a pullup to do a kip but it does help.

    Master the positions and you will be well on your way to kipping like mad.

  22. everyone did amazing last night...kelly is not an easy workout. that being said, i wanted to point out a few people.

    1) all of the moms to be. it is great to see everyone pushing even when preggers. you are all an inspiration to us by showing that you can do anything if you put your mind to it. studies show that moms that workout have a lot less chance of birth complications so kudos to all of you.

    2) kelly, i love the fact that you stuck with the high box the entire workout. great work.

    3) swine, you were a man possessed. i was about to call a priest to perform an exorcism. your speed on each run was amazing and your height on the wall balls was outstanding. you owned that workout.

    4) cind, you are like the little engine that could. you kept on trucking through that workout despite how much i know you hate running. awesome work and a great time.

    5) the class for pushing each other. you did well tonight and brought out a lot of what crossfit can do.

    jen you were pushing nikki
    jz you were pushing jeff
    swine you were pushing sam

    there are many more to name but it was evident that a lot of people in class were trying to keep up with someone and that is outstanding. thanks to those being chased because you help make my job easier and kudos to all of those chasing with all of their hearts, trying to pass someone.
