    Foundations Class #8…

    After the finest tutelage from Dan, the most magnificent Crossfit coach on the planet (hey, he practically BEGGED for kudos from the 6 pm class, so I figured I’d try to get his head to explode from his greatness :oP … the 7 pm class DID IT. May we always have a good lumbar curve and DIG DEEP. OK, I know, that was pretty … um … lame.

    Anyhoo…

    FGB was fun.
    12# wall ball
    Rows
    Box jump (turned into box step ups after first round)
    30# bar for push press
    45# bar for first two rounds of SDHPs then 30#

    Today is a perfect example of why I pay for a membership. Had this WOD come up on the main site, I would have gone to the gym, tried to do somewhere around 45-65 of OHS, failed, and then gone home.

    Instead, Brian and the others provided some fantastic cues, and for the first time ever I was able to do OHS.

    3 x 85, 95, 105, 115, 125, 135

    Go figure.

  11. Tony

    65, 75, 95, 95, 105, 95

    Has anyone had problems with their wrist?

  12. Raja

    7pm Foundations - final class
    FGB - 207
    Started out Rx but quickly abandoned that. Next time!
    Thanks to Dan, Brian and all the coaches. Hope to see the 7pm gang again soon!

    Siddarth et al,

    There is tape in the front plastic shelf thingy. I highly recommend doing a couple wraps right over the wrist joint in Overhead Squats, Push Jerk, Push Press, Shoulder Press, Clean, Clean & Jerk, and Snatch.

    Nice job to the 6 pm and 7 pm Foundations class - you guys went full bore on Fight Gone Bad.

  15. Brian

    And Ana, I think that’s a great picture!

  16. Aaron

    Yes, wrist discomfort kind of comes with the territory. It becomes a mild discomfort as you get stronger and your wrists get more flexible. Tape helps too.

    WOD

    3-3-3-3-3-3 Overhead Squats

    115, 135, 145, 155, 165 (2), 165 (PR!!!!!!!)

    Then Deadlift work

    3×315, 335, 345.

  17. Gavin

    3-3-3-3-3-2
    35-35-35-45-55-55

  18. Chad

    OHS 3-3-3-3-3-3

    55-75-85-95(F)-75-75

  19. Du4

    OHS 3-3-3-3-3-3

    55-65-75(F)-65-65-65

    Yep, wrists hurt like hell during and after but fine today. Brian speaketh the truth about the wrist tape but get someone to help you tape up for the first couple times. I taped too tight and couldn’t feel my fingers.

  20. Erika

    OHS. It was good to get some work in on these. Wasn’t sure what I could do since I rarely practice these, so I just kept going til I wore myself out.

    80-85-90-95-100-105(2)-105-110(2)

  21. Paul

    FGB as RX’ed except for 16# on wall ball rather than 20#

    298 reps.

    Will break 300 next go round.
