Go to CrossFit.com for more information about all this weekend's activities.
Deadlift 5 X 2 @ 80-85% of 1RM
Then.
10 Deadlifts 155#/105#
10 Burpees
20 DB OH Lunges 35#/25# (10 right arm/10 left arm)
5 times.
Post load and time.
Coaching Tips: Scale load and movements to match your current fitness level. Warm up properly prior to any max load lifts. You should work your way to the suggested percentages. That should be 5 sets of 2 reps without bouncing the bar at the bottom. 2 clean good reps. Excellent form on each attempt. The second part of the workout has DB overhead walking lunges. You must keep your arm fully extended and close to your mid-line as possible. The further away from that position, the more unstable the load will be and the higher the possibility that an injury can occur. Press up and stay tight throughout the movement.
The BUZZ for this weekend has started. All the heavy hitters of previous CrossFit Games are going to be there this weekend. Barber, Everett, Millar among others. We are in for one hell of a time. CFEC’s athletes are beyond prepared, it’s just a matter of putting it all together at the right time and place. All CFEC members and friends send good thoughts to our athletes all weekend long. Help them out in any way you can.
Oh yeah…and Newman.

After this morning’s workout I drove over to pick up my post-workout recovery shake (aka Starbucks latte). As I stumbled from car, with my legs still locked in a perma-lunge, it occurred to me that the best part of working out in the morning is that the rest of the day seems a whole lot easier!
Thanks for the excellent workout!
FYI – Here’s the link to the page which will have the live video from the Games.
