Fran right after Fight Gone Bad. What did we do to anger the Crossfit Gods?

TP said...

Jamie- 12.16.2009 Posting sums it up pretty well. This is a technique and skill of running that will improve your efficiency thru less impact at all distances be it 400m or 40miles.

Tim, I might be wrong but doesn't Crossfit Endurance teach proper mechanics of running? POSE is just one way of running, but CFE uses a host of strategies. (many of which align with POSE which is why it is associated with CFE so much)

Also, continuing the 2 day tradition of explaining the origin of the WOD, here is a CF Journal article explaining why Crossfit uses girl names for the toughest wods: http://journal.crossfit.com/2003/09/benchmark-workouts-by-greg-gla.tpl

If you put "POSE" in the search on the upper left of our blog what will come up next under today's obvious post is the last workshop on fundamentals of the Pose style of running dated 12.16.09 where in the comments section there are 5 and Chris and I explain it abridged.

c wiss said...

I came to the comments to say "Go Steve" and now I find myself drawn to the disco. I volunteer to show some crack and also wear underwear over my spandex. LOL!

Steph -- If you want a nickname, you should solicit suggestions on the whiteboard. :-D

Aimee Lyons said...

@Nikki- Kara doesn't check the blog. haha! but her sister-in-law Jenny does :) I'll pass on your message to her!

@Donkey-I know now why you want the disco WOD!

@Steph, Donkey, C- Just let me know when you want to perform this "disco WOD" and I'll make sure it gets executed!
