I just have to post a little comment about the effects of Crossfit. Tonight I ran a 5K that I have run every year for the last 5-6 years. It is the first measurable event I have had since I started with Apex a few months ago. In my sport of dog agility, I have seen the effects of more power out of my legs in pivot turns and general speed burst running. But this 5K would give a timed and measurable result. I PR'd this course by 1:23 over last years time with a time of 28:25!! And more importantly I felt strong MENTALLY and physically throughout the whole race!! Crossfit not only works your body but it has really helped me with my mental focus as well. I can't wait to see the results of this coming Saturday's Spartan race!! I am so stoked to see the difference over last years time in the Spartan!!

Thank you to not only Josh, Tanya, Keith, Jane, and all of the other instructors, but also the other members of Apex!! You are all amazing and motivate me in so many ways and push us all to become better and stronger people.

Nice work Frank! Will look for you on Sat...

SharonLS said...

I thought this sounded familiar Bekah!! although ours were strict toes to bar, weren't they?

Kevin Mooney said...

nice Frank!

Josh Wagner said...

Frank that is terrific.Thanks for the nice words. Great work and goodluck this weekend with your Spartan race. Keep it up at Apex and you will continue to see goals broken each and every month. Glad to have you apart of the Apex team.

10:29 35# kb ttr. 9 seconds didn't seem long until the second round came around. The L sits were tough. My abs feel like they're permanently stuck to my spine after this WOD. Loving the warm up runs! Getting me ready for the spartan race this weekend. Good luck to all those in the race.

Nice work Frank! Congrats on the PR last night!

Tanya said...

Thatta boy Frank!!! So happy for you :) Nice job on the 5k last night, we didn't see you, so you must have been in the first wave of fast guys. We didn't get outside in time for you or Cassandra!

Keep up the hard work! Good luck at the Spartan to you and the other Spartanians! HAVE FUN!!!

9:25
unweighted sit-ups
TTRig
Knees up L-sit (an "N-sit" maybe?)

It was great seeing so many familiar Wed. aryn6am. faces!

Thanks for the comments and encouragement, Clayton.

9:19 26#, one leg l-sits

100m rows for warm up 14s/16s

Unknown said...

8:41, 18#, toes to post, knees l-sit. This was a burner.

Loved the warm up. Sprinting is much more fun to me vs. running a couple 400s. 14 quick/18 slow.

Unknown said...

8:12 18#, ttp, knees up
19/20 for the sprints, which I hated, I'll take paced longer distances any day. Between my legs and my abs I figure I'll just fall out of bed tomorrow :)

In general I really liked this workout and Tuesday's - still fast but full of tough skill/strength moves like the handstands and L sits.

Jane T. said...

Congratulations Frank! That's awesome! Keep up the great work...
