North Station WOD 081505

"It's Playtime!" That was the mode for CrossFit Boston today. I wanted to break the routine for the troops and let them just enjoy exercising today. So the workout consisted of three evolutions:

Evolution I: Gymnastics
  • Tumbling
  • Headstands
  • Handstands
  • Round offs

Evolution II: Striking and odd lifting

  • Hand and Leg strikes of the heavy bag
  • 100# Heavy Bag Turkish Get-up, press to opposite side of head, return to the ground, 10 reps

Evolution III: Fight Time

  • The class partnered up and took turns striking thai pads and "shoving" matches to get the feel of dynamic weight. I think they had a great time and really grew an appreciation of combative sports.

When all was finished a few of the class stayed and practiced some more of the gymnastics. Aaron, you are definitely determined and will get it. Keep it up!
