WOD: ”Deck of Cards”
Diamonds = Push ups

Spades = Squats

Hearts = Flutter Kicks (4 count) or multiply your card by 4

Clubs = Sit ups

Jokers = Run 400m

Shuffle a deck of cards and start. I m thinking groups of 4 or 5 people with their own deck of cards. Each numbered card is face value, aces are 11, and face cards are 10.  Should be fun and a way for people to get their names on the board.

The box will be open at 8 for body fat testing.  Class from 9-10, 10-11, Palo talk from 11-12 and then more body fat testing from 12-1.  If you haven’t been in to the box recently its a great time to show up go thru a wod and learn some cool stuff about different diet options.

 WOD: Come in and find out…… Elena getting after some KB Swings and Manny doing some ball slams.

50-40-30-20 and 10 rep rounds of:
Double-unders
Sit-ups

Challenge: 3×5 Shoulder Press, use your one rep max weight from last week and then do sets of 75%,80 %, 85% of your one rep max.  So lets say your shoulder press max is 155, then your 1st set would be at 116 or 75%, 2nd set would be 124 or 80%, and your 3rd set will be 131 or 85%….. Round up or down to get weights that are easy to use.  Group up with people with similar weights.  If your shoulders are trashed or need a break, all of you will need an updated deadlift max, so you could do this instead. 

Play: 250m weighted walk, either dumbells or Kettlebells.  Carry weight at your sides…

Body Transformation Challenge starts this saturday at 11….. please let the coaches know if you have questions….. Fight Gone Bad is September 25th.  Oregon Crossfitters this is an excellent time to expose your friends and family to what we do.  Non crossfiters can come in do the workout and get a taste of the hard work you all put in daily.    please register here: www.fgb5.org

So I was really thinking about putting a real easy workout up, but then when everybody got to the box changing it to something tough because you shouldn’t cherry pick your workouts.  If its your day to train come in and train, even if it is your weakness or something you hate.  Alot of you are really good about coming in and trying something new or working on weaknesses that is what it takes to get better.  So even if a workout looks terrible come in and work through it.  : )
