June 4th, 2012

Thanks to everyone who made it out to our 3rd year anniversary celebration. We kicked it off with the 300 Challenge at 11:30 am.. Congrats to everyone who participated. Reebok Kitchener were kind enough to give us a male/female prize package so we decided that the prize should go to the most improved CrossFitter. Angela Pause completed 12 consecutive  pullups, which is twice as many as she’s done before. Blyth Gill had a fantastic 300 time and has improved significantly  over the last 6 months. Congrats!

The rain held off most of the day which allowed for our fun outdoor kids event. Thanks to BBQ Extraordinaire Larry Legal who kept the burgers coming. Another special thanks goes out to all our SOAR volunteers who  motivated and helped these teams through our CF challenge.

Our official anniversary is June 8th so we’re going to devote this week to our fantastic 3 years at CFK!

Today’s WOD

12min to find a 3RM Back Squat

5min rest and set-up

6, 30 sec rounds of each movement with 30sec rest between 
Back squat 135/95
Push up
KBS 1.5/1.0
 
Post loads and # of reps to comments
 
Trainer’s Tips: You only have 12min, so work quickly to find that 3RM. You should finish between 
80 and 90% of your 1RM. Set up your racks right away for the 2nd part of the WOD and then relax for
a couple of minutes. Move at a steady pace, but be realistic. 30sec of hard effort of these movements
will reduce you to a crawl for the last half of this WOD. Find a pace that you can maintain throughout
and keep the reps as consistant as possible round to round.

    Congrats and well deserved Angela and Blyth! Thanks CFK for putting on a great party. It was nice to meet some of newer members and also to watch the SOAR competitors work their butt off.
