CFA will run another obstacle course before the end of the year!
Strength/Skill Work: Push-press
WOD
21 front squats
21 pull-ups
15 push-press
15 pull-ups
9 thrusters
9 pull-ups
For time.
Use the same bar for the entire work-out. Use 75% of your max push-press or thruster weight not to exceed 135/95lbs. This work-out should completed with a load 20-30% heavier than at which you would perform the benchmark WOD Fran.
Holiday Hours:
We will be open on 12/24 until 1:00pm. (Noon class that day!) Closed 12/25. Open 12/26 and resume normal schedule.
New Years’ Eve will be similar as far as open until 1:00pm. New Year’s Day we will open for a WOD with a Paleo Potluck Brunch Kick-off to follow. Details to come.
Yeah, this just made my day

Hey Everyone. This is a shot in the dark, but I need water!!! If anyone could PLEASE give Tamara a jug of water for me at the 8:40 class, i would REALLY appreciate it. We have none and have run out of our jugs. I will be shopping today, but I assume that the water is all taken. I can’t even flush, so seriously, ANY water will be helpful. I’m going to shower at Tamara’s and she’s going to watch my kids so that I can get some santa gifts. Weaverville is killin me with this no power, no water thing. Thank you Crossfit friends!!
Never mind!!! I hear the gurgling of water in the basement!!! YAHOOOOOO!
Does that mean your basement is flooding??
no, but my front yard is. apparently the main line has busted and there is a river running down our already impassable driveway/road. i’m taking the kids to TC’s. i think i should suprise her with all my dogs as well!!! she would LUV that. your turkey will be there today. no cooler though – it is frozed in the shed. i’ll call you later to see if you are home while i’m driving in.
Kate, Merrimon Ave. Ingles has plenty of water if you still need some.
@Tara – oh good. i’ll go there after brushing my chompers at TC’s. THANK YOU!
@Corey – not funny.
Here’s to today’s 7 a.m. victims…I mean, class….who put up with my rant about Paleo being anti-semitic, Henny Youngman references (“Take my weights, please”), and other ridiculous banter. And I am sorry I stuck out my tongue at Shanna when she told me during push presses to “pull my belly in.” I don’t know what got into me. Must be the holiday cheer I am feeling as Christmas approaches.
I asked Shanna if I should sign up for the Master’s Division of the upcoming sectionals so that I could kick some 80 year old’s butt. Her response was, “That’s a great idea. You never know, no one may sign up and you could win by default.” If that isn’t a ringing endorsement, I don’t know what is. I love my CF coaches, I really do.
Miriam, you have to stop making me laugh so hard. My abs are sore.
And, thanks to everyone who cheered me on during the 19:32 that it took me to finish the WOD with unassisted pullups, haha. I’m really glad I did that, though.

Great work to all especially those venturing through without bands for the first time! I’m like a proud mama on days like these. Even if I sound discouraging to Miriam. haha I didn’t mean it the way it ended up sounding!!
I did 3 scuba dives as a substitute for the workout…plis everytime I leave our inn I get to climb 149 stairs back to our cottage. I could get used to this.
Tamara,
45 unassisted pull ups? Well, I’ll be damned. I’ve been given a false bill of goods. Corey and Shanna told me that Paleo man climbed trees using a giant human sized gray rubber band. I want a refund.
Miriam
Shonnie,
Scuba diving? Cottage? An inn? You are SO not crossfitting, my friend.
Thank you coaches for never letting me quit. Even when I’m calling the bar things I would be ashamed for my mother to hear.
Miriam, you are killing me. Thanks for the laughs.
Tara, I am old enough to BE your mother and I called the bar things I would be ashamed for my daughter to hear.
I am almost embarassed to say that, despite taking 19:32 to finish the WOD, I did not call the barbell or the pullup bar any bad names. Yes, it’s true…I think I got through a WOD without any profanity. That may be a first…
lmao @ miriam
