Steve's Club is a national program that works to bring CrossFit to at-risk youth. We will share details of the fundraiser WOD soon; in the meantime, please mark your calendars for Saturday, May 19...think about who you want to partner with (teams of 3)...and ask your friends and family to come be part of this great event!

LIFT: Deadlift (5-5-5+) MetCon: 3 Rounds 10 SDHP (95/65#) 5 Six-foot Broad Jumps 20 Walking Lunges Congratulations to EVERYONE who came in Saturday for the "CrossFit Total" fun. You guys really pushed hard, gave 100%, and put up some impressive numbers and new PRs..what an inspiring day! Clean & Jerk (5-5-5+) MetCon: 10 Rounds 2 Power Cleans + 1 Jerk 5 Toes to Bar Today's the day! Get your mind right, visualize each lift, and come show us what you've got! CrossFit Total: 1RM for your Back Squat, Press, and Deadlift. Let's rock 'n roll! Tonight is all about getting ready for tomorrow's lifts. We're keeping it light and working through the movements of CrossFit Total (Back Squat, Press, and Deadlift). After that, we'll spend some a little time on skill and mobility work. Mental toughness is a huge factor in your success. Preparing mentally is just as important as preparing physically; your attitude determines everything. Take a peek at this photo - what's Jason doing? That's right! He's visualizing the move before he gets back on the bar. As we prepare to hit our 1RMs this Saturday, know that visualization is key. As you load the bar, don't think about the weight...think about your technique, visualize your success all the way through the movement, and live the victory mentally before you touch the bar. LIFT: Sots Press 5-5-5 MetCon: 3 Rounds 10 Deadlift (225/155#) 200m Run 25 Sit-Ups A big thank-you goes out to Ms. Holly for coming by and working on our athletes.

LIFT: Snatch 5-5-5 MetCon: ROW, ROW, ROW your little heart out. DON'T FORGET...plan to stay after class tonight for our little surprise!

LIFT: Deadlift Skill Work: (not for time) 5 Rounds 10 Grasshoppers 4 Man Makers 4 Barbell Rollouts We're going to test your one-rep max tonight for the Clean...then we'll have a little fun with a jump rope. Drink plenty of water, eat right, and come prepared to give everything you've got! Speaking of eating right, here's a great recipe for quick, tasty meal...the Paleo MexiMelt. Grate 3-4 large zucchini and 4-5 carrots in a food processor. Set aside. Brown 1lb. ground beef and 1lb. italian sausage in a decent amount of olive oil in a large skillet. While the meat is browning, liberally add garlic powder, chili powder, ground cumin, paprika, and a little cilantro. Once the meat has browned, stir in the zucchini & carrots. Continue cooking for about 15 minutes. Serve alone or top it with a fried egg for some extra protein. The Olympic sport of weightlifting consists of two events, the Snatch and the Clean & Jerk. In the Snatch, the bar and plates are hoisted overhead to arms length in one continuous motion...where beauty, grace and elegance merge with brute force, speed and skill. Let's work on all those factors tonight! CALENDAR NOTE: we're going for a few max-effort lifts this month, so be sure you make class on April 11, April 13, and April 21 to get your true numbers. LIFT: Snatch (5-3-1+) MetCon: 8 min AMRAP 5 HSPU 100m Run 5 Ring Dips Everyone did a great job for the Easter egg surprise WODs on Saturday and we're proud of the effort we saw from each of you!
