We now are officially offering an “Elements” class every Sunday at 9AM, taught by Jen Conlin. It is important to give people time to learn each and every skill that we use in our workouts, and refine the fundamental movements. This week we worked on the Turkish Get Up, Overhead walking lunges and a few Kettlebell skills. Jen has worked hard to bring people along, here’s what she has to say “It’s always fun for me to work with this group, you all are hungry every week and I thank you so much for being a part of Elements Of Crossfit DC. Tom and I both enjoy your passion!”
During Crossfit’s main class Alex took a fall, but got up without skiping a beat!

So who won with the higher heart rate?
Seeing the “Tripping Red Viking” reminded me of this, but no pictures of us dying on the court for the first time in months??? Sadness!!
I think we both were around around 195- 200 bpm.
I always think box jumps are a perfect time to practice my vicious back spin breakdancin’ move.
Aint that right chocolate chip pancakes?
Maiko, The lights are so yucky in the gym the pictures always come out dark.
