Video:
Click here to check out a video tutorial on how to make tape grips. I used these at the recent Mid-Atlantic Regionals (thanks to Steph). Especially in the higher heat/humidity these will prevent against tears and rips during high volume Pull-ups/Knees to Elbows/Toes to Bar.

Community Notes:
Congratulations to the athletes who completed the Mid Summer Nights 5K last night: Tim, Laura, Megs, Kristin T. Nicole S & Kate.

Birthdays:

Today is one of our longest standing clients birthdays! Someone that dates back to our time at the FAC and who has completely changed their life through CrossFit. Happy birthday Cindy Handler!

  3. Happy Birthday, Cindy!!!! I miss you!!! You are such a beautiful, sweet person; but I love it when you get tough and push me past my comfort zone - like the time you told me my rope climb didn't count because I didn't touch the orange tape and you made me do it again :p
    Or the time you helped me get through my first RX workout with RX pushups! You're the best! Enjoy your bday!

  13. Happy Birthday Cindy!

    Gonna be on the road for the next few weeks starting Monday. Recommendations for equipment-less WODs? Any web sites that specialize in these (so I don't have to wade through tons with kettlebells or pullups)?

    Thanks.

  20. Happy Birthday, Cindy! I hope we'll be seeing you more often b/c the box hasn't been the same without your presence.

    Cline, you can always torture yourself with 100 burpees for time.

    ReplyDelete
  21. Cline- I'm sure if you request a WOD on the blog you will get multiple ideas! haha!

    Gabe- great start to the summer, keep em coming! What was your time.

    To the Nooners-Way to fight through that WOD today, solid effort all around from each athlete, I think you all push beyond what you were capable of...rope climbs are no joke. Kudos to all!

  22. Aimee - took me 24 29, and it took my dad 31 and change. Great WOD, especially barefoot in the sand!
