Last week we switched over the “Why Are You Here?” board to the “Goals” board. The reasons you’re all here were inspiring, at times humorous, and some of them had been up so long the ink didn’t want to come off the wall. The goals board will work pretty much the same way. Grab a marker, get your goal on the board, along with the date you want to achieve it, and your name. Every time you’re at CrossFit Fenway do something to work on your goal. Don’t know what to do? Ask a CrossFit Fenway coach. Whether it’s making a strength even stronger, fixing a weakness, learning a new skill, or achieving a first, put it on the board.

where is everyone today???
clean- 60kg
wod- 8:28 rx .. thrusters really slowed me down.. too heavy
Avoiding you? :)
Or double unders and thrusters…
I think everyone’s as tired as my elbows were when attempting to send them around the bar this morning.
35 kg clean.
8:48, with 24 kg and a bajillion singles instead of double unders.
i’m psyched, tonight is going to be my first go at double unders. after recently discovering that i can do a few, i’m looking forward to the challenge of doing 50 of them at the end…not so much for the whip marks the rope is going to leave!
22kg on the cleans. still working on figuring out the form, i use my arms way too much.
WOD:
10:29 with 19kg for thrusters and i did double unders for the first time! couldn’t string more than 5 together at the end, but i’m pumped i did it! also big thanks to aaron for standing over me and pushing me through my last few thursters
245lbs/110kg clean…NEW PR by 50 lbs
WOD: 13:16 man those double unders are bad when you can string only a few together at a time
31 years 5’10″ 180
185lbs clean… same PR as Last time :(
WOD: double unders kicked my butt…. That is to say they turned into a lot of singles….. Need to work on them DU’s
Then figured lets have a little fun. 20″ standing box jump up to max weight…. Got up to 130lb – 2x 65 Dumbells
70kg Clean. Same as last time. Working on form before I go heavier.
WOD: 10:59 with 50kg – This was the 1st time double unders actually got hard for me physically. The last 15 of them I just didn’t have the strength to whip that rope around fast enough. My triceps were on fire.
Clean: 75kg
WOD: 9:24 RX
-Thrusters were heeeeaaavy. But really psyched that I was able to move the prescribed weight. Form needs work too.
Clean: 70kg
WOD: 10:48 Rx
Next time Justin changes shoes for a WOD, I’m following his lead.
Clean: 100kg
WOD: 5:29 Rx, doubles were good, thrusters need work. Too many breaks
justin in a night class?? are you guys having secret beast of the east training sessions and leaving me out? :)
by the sound of it Haley, i think you need to be included in our little underground sessions – you are absolutely killing it!
If Justin were to punch you in the face, you’d have to fight off the strong urge to thank him
Stay thirsty my friends
Clean 100kg, but f’en ugly
WOD: 9:49rx, doubles were f’en ugly as well.
Next time we get together you are in, I actually didn’t know you were competing. Sorry dear, I should have assumed you were. We are going to try to do it again next week.
Haley
thanks, guys! i’ll do my best to keep up!
