Nate Hardy Memorial Fund

Nate Hardy

Complete as many rounds in twenty minutes as you can of:

2 Muscle-ups
4 Handstand Push-ups
8 2-Pood Kettlebell swings

Last night CFO members raised over $400 in honor of Chief Petty Officer Nate Hardy who was killed Sunday February 4th during combat operations in Iraq. Thank you to everyone who participated and special thanks to Daniel and Mike for being the focus of our philanthropic competition!

We're making a list of the CrossFit Oakland athletes who have an MU (Muscle Up Club). Post to comments if you have one or more! If you have MUs post the single most helpful cue that helped you to get yours and any wisdom you gained in attempting an MU that would be helpful to those still working on theirs!

I do not yet have a muscle up, but I'm getting closer. Hopefully I will be get to add my name to that roster in the near future.

For those that are interested, I am going to make the Hajj to CrossFit Santa Cruz Central on Saturday, March 1st for the POSE running clinic down there. If anyone is wants to come along, let me know. It's $75 and details can be found at:

In other news, several selections from Metallica's And Justice for All were playing on the stereo at workout. This is excellent and I encourage it to continue.

I got my first muscle up just a month ago, and I managed to do 3 rounds of Nate + 1 MU. I think the most helpful tips for me were to do it with your palms facing you (just like Tami was doing them) and to pull in tight to just under your chest.

Ah, Fran. I actually really want to do her and see if I can improve my time (it's been a while for me), but my back is a bit f*cked up still from Nate (I think it was the KB swings). :(

Attention all ballers!!!! We have all witnessed great workouts from the dynamic trio but the sub 3 min Fran I just witnessed from Steven was ridiculous! It could have been even better if he had a more efficient pull-up. Let 'em hang Steven, you deserve it :)

And without puking :)

Way to crush Fran, Steven! Unreal!

That's gotta be one of the best performances at CFO so far this year.

Right on Steven! Way to kill it.

thanks guys... thanks tam!!! ya those last set of pullups killed me =\ I was feelin good throughout and the thrusters felt weightless. I didnt believe my time myself after I finished. I hear Daniel aka Savage and Brandon are gonna be no shows tonight but are gonna get some tomorrow?

Steven, its me you should be worried about. 4 days off in LA drinking beer and eating hot wings everyday.... Seriously though, missing an entrie cycle, especially this one, has been hard. Hopefully I'll see you all throughout the next week.

Your my hero.

Me and Brandon were talking with our close friend/trainer Brian McNamee and he said that he has a vial and a piece of gauze from when he injected Steven with HGH and other performance enhancing drugs.
...and what is all this talk about "...missing an entire cycle." from Patrick.
What sort of "cycle" are you talking about there? I think his score should have an asterick.

But for real...That is VERY IMPRESSIVE!

It was flax seed oil... the good kind

Savage jr.

Holy Rippetoe! Sub 3 min Fran- that is legit dude. Congratulations Steven!
