Do Your Homework
We are here to train you, but that doesn't mean you should come in unprepared. If you were to take a class on anything from cooking to archery, you would probably do a little research before you started. CrossFit is no different. The people who excel are the ones that have knowledge of the movements.
When the WOD posts each night, familiarize yourself with the exercises. YouTube is a great resource and so is the following link on the CrossFit site: Exercises and Demos
If you come in, look at the board and ask "What's a thruster?" or you don't know the difference between a power clean and a full clean, don't be surprised if you get this look...
Workout of the Day:
Run 800m
30 clean and jerk 135/95
Run 800m
Pretty sure that look is for me :-(

I never laughed so much. I am so use to that look. I get it at least twice everytime :) You have to love Rob.

Yep. Pretty sure I see that look every day. Kinda disappointing when I don't.
Chris - you got Wendy pretty good on that one :)

Does someone have my "Paleo Solution" book? It was part of our Paleo library, but if someone took it, they didn't write their name down. It's been missing...please bring it back!

I get this look all the time, i just thought this is how Rob looks all the time. I think i'll try the 5 am before Rob has a busted vessel.

Hey everyone! Congrats to both Chucks for making it to the games! Good to hear that CF Vero Beach is making some noise in the community. Hope everyone is doing well and miss everyone!

Can you turn back my clock so I'm 29 again and have a memory?
