W.O.D. 2.23.12

Rachael and Meg with some solid swinging!



For time:
Complete 200 Kettlebell swings (55#/70#)


For skill:
Handstands (all varieties- including handstand walk and push-ups)

Community Notes:
Weekend Reminder, we are hosting a Level 1 CrossFit Seminar this weekend, therefore there will be no regular scheduled classes in the box. We will host a 9:00AM outdoor adventure WOD both days. Meet Vinny & Plentus at Frosty Falls for an outdoor WOD, rain or shine.

We will host OPEN Wod 12.1 in each class on Friday 2.24.

  1. Disclaimer....these are predictions...you do not know why I am making them...perhaps to put a fire under someone (like last year and it worked), perhaps to put some pressure on others, perhaps to give people a reason to prove me wrong...I LOVE being proved wrong. Without further ado, here are my predictions for WOD 1...in no particular order...

    Aim, KT, LP, TP, P, Sam B/John tie.

  3. My vote is for Vinny on this one too Jason. He already has those loud and proud burpees down pat!!!Those extra 6" ain't got nutin' on him. Get some Vinny!!!!! And Megs LOVES burpees and is a burpee MACHINE! I expect to see her up there as well.

  4. Hey guys, there will be a casual stink and drink after tomorrow afternoon WOD's. BYOB (bring your own burpees, I mean booze). Come hang out and cheer on your fellow athletes as they plow through 7 minutes of burpees.

  5. I wonder if booze helps burpees like it does for deadlifts

  6. Plentus- you said you were going to do each of the WOD's more than once. Perhaps you can be our guinea pig?

  7. My prediction is that the KOP firebreathers that leave nothing on the table--that mentally push their limits are the ones that will rise to the top of this WOD!

    Great job morning crew. Shout out to all the ladies who didn't think they could rock the 35lb bell and did for all 200!! Nice work Oleg sticking with the 70lber! Congrats to Rebecca & Lauren for getting over the fear and kicking into handstands!

    We put the mat against the wall and worked on the form, once the ladies got comfortable with that, moved the mat and voila! A great tool for working on your first wall handstands (especially if fear is a factor)!

  8. Mel, good point, I love guinea pigs. Or is chinchillas...

    Everyone, you can sign up for the Open and join Team KoP until the CLOSE of the first workout, aka Sunday night.

  11. melanie, can we start the stink & drink before we start burpees? :D

  12. Re: The stink and drink...

    We have a training course the next morning so it would be GREATLY appreciated if all of the bottles can be put in a trash bag and taken to someones trash bin at their house of condo since we are not allowed to put it outside and we would not like the room to smell of alcohol. Also, the gym will need to be in pristine condition before the last person leaves. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

  16. Aimee and Jason- I will make sure the box is in tip top shape after Friday. I promise, no beeramids will be left in the middle of the gym.
