  1. Hi all. Wanted to update from snowy NYC. I dropped into crossfit Gotham and was immediately welcomed. They meet in the basement of a church and adapt extremely well to their space. Their “box” is stored in a closet and everything gets taken out and put back up for the WOD. As a result they have to be very flexible.

    Today we worked on squat cleans. After 1×7, we did death by squat cleans/ front squats. (we had to clean the bar from the ground and then basically do front squats). I struggled as I always with the front squat but got some great pointers.

    I look forward to sharing my experience as it was a completely new way of working out.

  2. After the article on working out while being sick, I think I will stay home for a couple more days. I have been sick since Christmas Eve and have an appointment today at 230pm. I think I have strep but who knows. It sucks. I miss CFI like crazy. It has been almost a week and push-ups and sit-ups are getting old 🙂 I hope to see you soon when I get better.

  3. 85-95-105-110(2)-115 (pr by 5#)-120 (failed 2x) The breathing techniques that Hudson told really helped me with the 115. The 120 attempt I just wouldn’t drop under it. Great seeing everyone at lunch!!

  4. 85-95-105-115-125-135-145(PR)

    I tried 150# several times and got very close but I guess I’ll have to beat Zan some other day.

  5. Was great to see Katie and Tesha aggressively hit PRs on their final lifts during the 6:30 class. I enjoyed working out with the 4:00, but boy does my blood hurt because of it.

  6. 200, 205, 215, 225x, 220x, 220x, 217.5(R)x

    Head game came into play in this one.
    Previous time I did this WOD on Sept. 10 was 155, 170, 180, 190, 200, 210x, 210 so happy with the progress overall. The last set in today’s WOD was my attempt at a “Christina-bias” placement of the weights. Basically an extra 2.5 lb. plate on the right-hand side.

    Wanted to get 230 lb. or more considering I hit 225 lb. at the recent ground to overhead affiliate WOD, but I’m satisfied with today’s performance considering I didn’t workout at all last week and was sick for most of it.

  7. 135-155-155(old pr)-175-185-205(new pr)-185

    Pretty pumped to break my old pr by 50 lbs. Thanks christina and jakub for the tips and encouragement.

  8. 75, 85, 85, 95f, 95f, 85, 90. Along with Katie, I gotta work on diving under the bar. Thanks for the great coaching Jeff! Congrats to Katie for an awesome finish at the end of the 6:30pm class!
