if you wanna see some different rope techniques, some scary 20-ft drops, rope burn, and what the last workout of an entire crossfit weekend at the games looks like go here:
After many, many tries, I was finally was able piece together "how" to get up the rope and then physically making my body do it. That rope better be ready for me next time hahaha.
Goal work: handstand negatives (2 ab mats, then just 1) 5x5 20# Db press
Caroline, there was a bell up there. You just must have not climbed high enough. I rang the bell. Twice. :P
But, um, on a serious note...rope and I didn't get a long. But I did cheer Will on as he climbed to the top without any leg assistance. So that's got to count for something, right?
I have a bunch of them, one of them being bodyweight snatch, for me 185#, though not really sure i can OHS that much. So today I played with snatches. Hit 155# nicely, but no more, I need to work on OHS and snatch balances.
Haha yes Daren, I think you are right about Carol!! :-) And am I crazy or did you change todays blog name to cowbell???? I swear it wasn't that earlier..hmm...coulda been though! hah!
