CROSSFIT LETHBRIDGE

Natural High Crossfit in Okotoks is running a charity event this Saturday that I will be participating in. If anyone else is interested in a fun and friendly competition you can go here to see the details. There are two workouts and then a BBQ afterwards. A nice little Saturday morning drive that will allow you to get out of your comfort zone and meet some other Crossfitters in our area. Post to comments if you are interested and perhaps we could carpool.The cost is $20 to participate and there is both a scaled and rx division so everyone is welcome.

B) 6 rounds for time:

   12 steps overhead barbell walking lunge (85/65) load appropriately as always.

21-15-9 rep rounds for time:

** A note on this workout: it is fast and it sucks kinda like Fran but try and push through and keep moving. The best part is that all the "fun" is over very quick.

Hope you all had the chance to enjoy some rest and relaxation this weekend. The weather turned out to be beautiful and calm. Thanks to our members who joined me for a fun little workout on holiday Monday. It was a great day to hit and drag some tires. Todays workout was inspired by a .com wod from last Friday. Thought we would work on some WBS instead of cleans. We haven't done them in this volume since the Open so dig deep and work on efficient movement.
WOD
3 rounds for time:
50 double unders
40 situps
30 WBS
20 pullups
10 handstand pushups

Hope you are enjoying this long weekend. We posted on the schedule that we were going to be closed today but have decided to pop in. So if your itching for a gym workout we will be having Open Gym time from 10am-about 11:30am today.
