Hero WOD Thursdays - "JT" (Plus Some)

Do you know who the very first CrossFit Hero WOD is dedicated to? I didn't know either... Well, it's this dude, JT, Petty Officer 1st Class Jeff Taylor (30 yrs young) of Little Creek, VA who was killed in Afghanistan June 2005. We honored him this morning.


"JT"
21-15-9 reps, for time
Handstand push-ups
Ring dips
Push-ups






It was A LOT harder than it looked on the white board. Our arms were shot after the first set. But then we decided it wasn't enough. So we did this...

100 Deadlifts (225/135)
400m Prowler Push (95/45)
100 Burpee Box Jumps

The Teams:
1st: Practically Senile Elderly Gentlemen

Our Medical Industry per T.W.

As you all may have noticed that big Tim doesn't mind voicing his opinion(s) whether you want to hear it or not..... here's Tim's little two cents on our "Medical Industry"..... let's hear it:
(IMPORTANT NOTE: posting this video on this blog definitely does not show supporting Mr. Tim's opinion.... absolutely NOT....this is for the purpose of pure entertainment)

Here's little One Arm Jerk demo by Tim:

10/04/2012- PROWLER PUKER

So, this is what Big Tim came up with this morning for the morning crew:

"Push the prowler until someone pukes their fuckin' brains out... Then everyone else shoulders stones until their arms bleed."~T.W.

Not that many people showed up today.... only 7 of us! 

WE DID: 

12 Rounds of:

100 meter prowler push 
As many shoulder stone until the person pushing the prowler returns


The girls pushed 270 lbs. 
The boys did 310 lbs. 

......... and this didn't happen today!

GREETINGS!

(Imagine holding a beer)

"So, here's to all of the morning crew that reaffirms the faith in the human race(although a tad dramatic, you get the point)." ~A.T.
