CrossFit Oakdale had a fun Saturday in Ripon at CrossFit Alpha Omega’s competition. Chance, order Thomas and I walked in there with some pretty decent front squat numbers – Chance and I expected to squat in the low 300s.  We got out freaking doors blown off as dudes were squatting in the high 300s, with the winner hitting 405.  Wowee Zowee!

Micayla took first in the Front Squat with a...Read more
