WOD: Wendler: Week 6 – Press 8 minute AMRAP:Clean and Jerk 95/65 Post results/thoughts to comments Wow, a bunch of big numbers today on the strict press. Some of you who are doing the Wendler are already pushing what was your 1RM max 6 weeks ago for 5+ reps. Keep up the good work guys. Hope you like the basic but tough little burner. Singe modality workouts can often be some of the toughest, we did a 2K row a few weeks ago which was tough, maybe a 1 mile run is in the future. Hope to see lots of you tomorrow. Cheers. Wow, 17 people in at the 5:45 AM class and the overflow into the parking lot Chris getting the bar overhead – Jade

WOD: Wendler: Week 6 – Squat 3 rounds AQAP:20 Kettlebell Taters 53/35Run 400m Post results/thoughts to comments Great to see so many faces in the gym today. You guys all tore it up, or got torn up by the lunges. Hope you all had fun with our new little kettlebell movement today. Most of you got it, if not, maybe something to work on if you get to the gym early one day, it’ll get you warm and get that brain firing for sure. See you tomorrow. Cheers. Dani and Krisit swinging, flipping, and squatting the kettlebells Donny getting the kettlebell airborne Elliott leading the charge on the run – Jade
From the Members
Jade, For the past 10 years I have suffered from lower back pain. I’ve tried physical therapy, acupuncture, and facet injections. None of these helped relieve my back pain. With no relief in sight, the Spine Institute recommended that I have Spinal Fusion surgery. Desperate to not undergo this procedure, with only an 80% chance that I might have some improvement, I asked for other options. Core strengthening was recommended. Hearing my story, Vinny Lizotte suggested I join Champlain Valley CrossFit. After 6 months of CrossFit, I no longer have any lower back pain. I’ve climbed Camels’ Hump and Mt. Mansfield and spent a day rock climbing – all pain free. A year ago, I wouldn’t have been able to do that. When I first joined CrossFit, anything that involved bending over was a challenge. I wasn’t able to do a single Burpee…
