I guess I should let everyone know . . . I will be moving back to San Diego at the end of May. I love Portland dearly but I want to be close to my family - I miss them!! I can now get some proper training in : )

Congratulations! I’m sure you’ll be making quite a few people very happy.

yyyayyyyyaaaayyyyyy!!!!!

Finally!

Now GD can stop trying to be subtle when he’s “hinting” that you should come back.
He wasn’t very good at it and I think he hurt himself trying.

BrandX will be much richer for your return.

SP 57.5kg PR!!!!! Right on the edge not sure there is any more just at the moment- though will be in the future

DL 140kg ~ 5kg less than PR Need to deadlift a little more and grease the groove

Total= 307.5kg PR

Can’t say that I am disappointed with the news that Nichole will be back in San Diego.  She misses her family (sniff).  She also misses her Crossfit family at Brand X also. I am looking forward to working out with her!

@CFEC
Push Jerk. 1-1-1-1-1-1-1
I only managed to prove I can’t do it, again.

So, I am seriously frustrated about this:
Same as last time. great with the barbell and light weights.
but, when I get to right around my shoulder press 1RM, i stop getting under the bar and it becomes more of a push press.

I have similar problems, the only place so far that I can Push jerk is with a 24kg Kettle bell, ‘cause there is no way I can press it up. If I don’t get under it I fail, plain and simple feed back.
It’s driving me a bit nuts, but since I seem to finally getting under the bar on a consistent basis with the clean, I know that I will get the Push jerk , persistence pays off.

CFE Wod this arvo

Tabata. Used Beep test shuttles as run course + boots + 14kg

Warm up level 5 in boots (easy- maybe should make it higher for warm up) then switched to Tabata for the shuttles going for max lengths each 20secs

Would be great to have someone to count, record and push me.. But hey its a free extra mental challenge

Managed 4, 4, 4, 3.75, 3.5, 3.5, 3.3, 3.25 lengths respectively

90 s recovery then steady flat jog with kit 800m in 4m 23secs

Gonna have to work on getting all Tabata reps up to 4 lengths with 16kg + 2.5kg simulated rifle hand weight. Its definitely do-able

Nichole it’s about time. Can’t wait to have you back.

12.03.09 had an early rest day, cycled to and from work

Just one of those days, early morning (as opposed to evening), also a bit more rushed. Anyway, some days are like that.

Cheers
