What's everyone think of 13.4? You likey or do you dislikey and why?
Nothing like a boat load of T2B after having a 2 day stomach ripper! However, I do likey....hammer the clean & jerks, break the T2B into manageable sets and keep moving....7min will go fast!
I likey. It will tax grip and forearms, which I think I can manage. Weight will get heavy for me quick - but the 7 mins will go quick so it's a win-win! Or something...
Nothing like running into the Apex crew at Hennings and then crouching in a corner together, ears and eyes dialed in. struggling to hear Castro announce the wod on a laptop. Love it!
I saw Khalipa and Miko, but no Tanya. Since 95# is probably close to my max, if not my actual max, I doubt I can "Hammer the clean and jerks" like you dear, but I will definitely move on the TTB since that is by far my better movement. Thank goodness it's only 7 minutes!
Not excited for this. I have done 1 TTB. I am not worried about the Clean and Jerks as much. It will be hard but I know I can struggle through it. I really really really want to get TTB
The womens video has all the names listed. Look how far they've come. Annie T struggled with 85 and 95, her Max is now listed at 156. In the guys video Heat 1 - Back row - OPTs little brother, ?, Jeremy Thiel, ? Front row – Jason Kahlipa, Pat Burke, Blair Morrison, the guy from Iceland (Sven?) Heat 2 – Back row = ?, OPT, Spencer Hendel (back tat), ? Front Row - ?, Mikko, Moe –big dude from Northern Cali, Tommy Hackenbruck
Here's my dialed in 13.4 score: 58 reps. 2 shy of finishing my 12's. I will miss the togetherness this friday. Teresa's right it is a grip killer, but only 7 mins! Pace out the cnj's to the right pace and it will fly nicely I think! Lauren can't wait to hear about your ttb's! Very best wishes everyone for 13.4 and have a meaningful easter weekend. Thank you Chris G for the judging and good work this morning too!
78# - baby 3lb pr :) I'm glad that Josh took a video of me so that I was able to see what my actual issues were vs. what I thought my issues were - I'm just happy he didn't tell me he was doing it haha. These classes are awesome; sooo when's the power clean one??
Loved this class...felt good to not have to be guns blazing and able to view (thanks to Josh videoing us)where are flaws were. That being said I hit 93# - Yup, that's a PR. Tried 98# but couldn't get under it.
Thanks to Josh and Erica for trying to get my toes to the bar! At least I got my toes to the rings...progress!

Hope you're feeling better, Bus!

You have to click on "Watch Tanya" it will take you to her Youtube interview and snatch performance.
70#
Loved watching Tanya's video for motivation :)
Not very excited for it bc I can't do toes to bar ha. But since my official score won't be anything I'm viewing the WOD as heavy split jerk work :)
Annie T. and Clever. Not many athletes can say they beat these ladies.
On another note....great video about the Open and how most of us feel from time to time. http://games.crossfit.com/article/year-double-unders

HUGE PR for the Female Bus....Congrats babe!

120# That is a 15#PR for me.
The weight felt light. I want to hammer down the form before I start concerning myself with weight.
Wags.....thanks for the corrections!

Only hit 215 as I continue to stuggle with pulling early and not using my hips. Was 10 pounds shy of my PR. I need to figure this out as ut annoys me.
