I'll help on Friday at least, though I think it should say "Thursday, February 1" and "Friday, February 2nd".

there's a great video on the national site of a guy doing the snatch.

Doh! We fixed the dates. Good catch, Sam!

Yeah, J, that's an awesome vid!

"doing the snatch." there's gotta be a better way to say that.
Posted by: Jonathan at January 23, 2007 9:26 PM
Oh yes, all these new terms: clean, jerk, snatch...
they scare me. ;)

Today I did three rounds of:
5 shoulder press
10 push press
15 push jerk
with 40# dumbbells
15 dead-hang pullups
It took 29:30 (multiple muscular failures every round)

Just wait until we get you in a singlet, Maren.

Nice workout Sam.

Today was my first workout with handstand pushups. I want to do more with gymnastics basics. It was not only fun but is making me stronger!! Watch out!

Maren:
CrossFit: It's all Jerks and Snatches...
At least we're clean...

Max - Good one! Is there a tee shirt for sale with that saying on it?
Mike - I have no idea what a singlet is, but I'm quite sure that it is VERY difficult. Speaking of difficult, I can barely move my arms today. And I can't sit down without saying "ow". I only worked out for about 30 minutes yesterday and it's crazy how sore I am. I got sore from Jim's boot camp but never THIS sore. But that was mostly cardio...
go slugs!
