When did you realize CrossFit was for you? My son plays baseball with Denny’s boy Brody. I was asking Denny questions about CF and he’d always tell me to go in and try a WOD. A couple of months later I finally dragged my butt in there. The WOD that day was “Helen” and it thoroughly kicked my ass. It took about 6 weeks to get hooked. When I would read Brian’s blog about the next day’s WOD before going to bed and then lie there awake most of the night strategizing, I knew I was all in. What is your first impression ? Some really cool people working really hard. One time at...Read more

So we’re focusing on the Snatch – that is going to mean skill transfer exercises.  The first one we will use, price and one that I believe will be of great benefit to many of you, this web is the Snatch Balance. Review the video of Coach Burgener and his daughter Sage from their garage.  I love these videos, website like this as they have been around for years, well before CrossFit blew up.  I would watch the over and over again, at a time when I truly did not understand the nuances of the lifts.  I remember watching videos of different lifts, and not being able to identify what the difference between a power and squat, or full version, of a lift was.
