MONDAY WOD - Oh Cindy!

No better way to start Crossfit after a rest day than doing a benchmark WOD to see how you are progressing.  Harry Millner once said, "All progress occurs because people dare to be different."  So fitting for our group and without further ado...

CINDY
5 Pullups
1
0 Pushups
15 Air squats
as many rounds as you can in 20 minutes

It's been over a month since we last did Cindy (April 14th), compare how you did, knock it out and see if you can improve your time. 

Rest day is over!  Get busy!

Sunday Challenge


OK, so now is the time for you all to have a WOD named after you. Create your WOD, post it and we will put it in the hopper this week for a customized CrossFit Amelia Island WOD. Yesterday was "Kate" - nicely done.


So start thinking of your favorite combinations and Blog them. It will be a Fun and Challenging week!

Why Crossfit???

Answer: To be better than the national average! The New York Times recently did a story on the beloved push-up. Ode to the push-up!

The article says: "Based on national averages, a 40-year-old woman should be able to do 16 push-ups and a man the same age should be able to do 27. By the age of 60, those numbers drop to 17 for men and 6 for women. Those numbers are just slightly less than what is required of Army soldiers who are subjected to regular push-up tests."

Keep pushing...unless it is your rest day!
