2011 CrossFit North East Regionals

Trevor James and Kelly Steadman both competed at the Northeast Regionals this weekend and did an amazing job. After qualifying just on the bubble in 60th place (only the top 60 from the open qualified) Trevor showed up ready to go and finished in 15th place, just 1 spot shy of rolling over to day 3. He did an amazing job, and will continue to be a force to be reckoned with at the ripe old age of 19. Kelly tore it up all weekend, showing everyone why she is a beast by winning the event. She will be going on to the CrossFit Games in California. In the meantime we will be doing everything we can to help her prepare and we are so pumped to see that she did so well.

WOD: Muscle-up Practice: 15 minutes 15 minute AMRAP:10 Power Snatch 95/6515 Box Jumps 24/1820 Kettlebell Swings 70/53 Post results/thoughts to comments Great job today everybody. It was awesome to see so many people working on those assisted muscle-ups.  Even if you’re not strong enough to get a muscle-up yet practicing them with assistance is a great way to get the movement down so that when you have the strength you’ll be able to get one. After the muscle-up work you all killed it on the met-con and pushed yourselves really hard. Great work everybody. Keep it up. Cheers.

WOD: Wendler: Week 2 – Press 7 rounds AQAP:10 Deadlifts 225/155200m Run Post results/thoughts to comments A real lung burner was had today and boy did we have some big classes. I’m psyched to see so many people doing the Wendler cycle and dedicating their time to getting stronger. The stronger you are the easier things will become. Keep up the awesome work everybody.
