“DT”
As much as we missed you all, our level 2 prep course was awesome. I am sad that it is over. To sum it up, the weekend consisted of drilling the different points of performance and analyzing programming strategies. Using some of the coaching strategies and cues will allow us to improve the movement and performance of all of you wonderful athletes. The programming piece was very valuable as well, you might notice some helpful differences going forward.
In other news, I got my first muscle-up! At the beginning of the month I set a 1 month goal to get my muscle-up. I had 1 day left and I had to get it!! During the 5 minute bathroom breaks I kept wandering over to the rings and practicing my kip and transition. At the very end of the certification we worked up to a 2 rep max clean and jerk. After I was finished I walked over to the rings, and on the 3rd try I got it! Since it was right after the seminar ended everyone from the level 2 were all standing around and all screamed and cheered when I pressed it out. Definitely one of my proudest CrossFit moments. Did you all achieve your one month goals? If not, you should give yourself another month, keep trying…you will get there. If you haven’t established any goals for yourself you should! It really works.

Beyond impressive everyone!
Congrats Amy, Ali, Lulu, and everyone else who has been hitting or getting close to their goals! I think it’s Robb Wolf who had the quote – “It’s almost like this whole paleo and Crossfit thing really works!”
New one month goal: Back squat 300×5. I did sets of 285×5 the other day so I’m thinking I can rip through this one.
I’m not sure I can survive DT. : / Yikes is right!
My one month goal for March: ring dips
Great job Amy!!! I’m happy to say that I exceeded my 1 month goal of 3 unassisted pull-ups – I did 4 on Saturday 😉 Not much, but I’m getting there!
Yay Amy! Thanks for the shout out. love seeing thosecheck markson the goal board for everyone!
My one day goal: survive DT as RXd! yikes
Yeah, Amy!!!! Big ups!!!
Just in case you all didn’t hear, Ali got her first MU a week and a half ago. Pretty fricken badass for someone who has been crossfitting for less than 6 months. I am also incredibly impressed by all of the guys who have been whipping out muscle-ups lately, to mention a few: Phil H, Nick, Sean, Jeff, Jason, Alex, Joe, Seth…and the list goes on. You guys rock!
Amy congrats!!!
