Did Monday’s WOD: BS 170×5, 195×5, 220×21. WOD: 10:09 Rx. Glad to be back after a three day hiatus (recovery)! Liked the Reebok Oly shoes for the OHS (I think it was my first time using them for OHS), which got better as the WOD progressed.
i see. well, from what i have read, you get “definition” by dropping body fat and getting bigger muscles. high reps will increase muscular endurance much more than strength. Unless you’re eating a LOT, the combination of metcons and lifting make bulking up in crossfit pretty hard, in my opinion.
Thanks Gil for pushing me today! Im glad nobody was around to watch me limp down the stairs this morning after that WOD! Its good to be back after a little over a year recovery.
8:33 Rx – a leisurely Karen. I hadn’t done it before and the whole right side of my body hates me right now!
Did Monday’s workout yesterday in 15 something. Had a bit of trouble with OHS balance during the first round and the pull ups were slow going. But felt good after two days off.

I hear ya joel on the reebok oly shoes….Staci and I both love them for OHS!
Reebok HQ came in yesterday to talk about custom gear for CFN….anyone have a say on it. They sure do have nice gear and shoes.

Custom gear – I would buy a CFN sweatshirt no doubt. I think CFN knee high socks would be dope as ever. I’d probably get anything that says CFN on it

Tank tops!!! Tshirts are great and all, but I much prefer working out in tanks.
01/27/2012 at 2:26 PM
I think zip up hoodies, any type of sweats would be awesome! I’d buy them! I agree on the tank tops as well

looks like you need to be going heavier on your backsquats – 21 reps is insane!

Joel is going for definition right now… He doe snot want to bulk up.

I think the magic is in the shoes – plus, I think I had a pretty crappy 1RM BS.
