Some thoughts:

Crossfit training improves peoples fitness levels by increasing work capacity.

We can only measure work capacity if standards are in place.

The Pushup is a fickle friend to your Old CrossFit Coach who is looking to get you stronger, leaner, and fitter!

Why?

On days I program pushups in a workout my main role is to get you to uphold the standard you are capable of!

Modifications of movements are based on current level and capability.

A good coach modifies when needed.

A good coach knows when to challenge you to the next level!

I’ll make an early toast.

“Here is to Perfect Pushups for all in 2009!”

Happy New Year my Friends, may you all find success early and often this year.

As always…

In Strength,

Jerry

As 2008 comes to a close we are going out with a bang by hitting some hard and brutally effective workouts at CrossFit Oldtown

Are you a “Met-Con Ninja?“ 

7 rounds for time

11 Wallball

11 Burpess

11 Pullups

This one hurts in all the right places, guaranteed to burn off that holiday FAT!

If you bring it in under 18 minutes consider yourself a Met-Con Ninja!!

20 minutes or under, a Ninja in Training…

20+ minutes; keep at it Grasshopper!

Check it out:

What is Met-Con?

How did you fair?

In Strength,

It was a cold Alexandria morning, but CrossFit Oldtown braved the teen temperature and tackled the Crossfit Hero Workout Murph.

Some of the footage: 

Blain puts a lot of care into properly wrapping his hands for the 100 pullups, does his tape job  holdup?

Santa makes a cameo, can he do pullups?

Alexandria Personal Trainers beware;  CrossFit Oldtown Moves to 805 N Royal Street, Alexandria VA in Mid-January 2009!
