Jade is swinging while Rhonda is waiting, but what in the world is Tom doing back there??
Skill Work: Muscle-Up Progression
You know, the one where you start off kneeling and then press up from your toenails? Before ending class we each knocked off a few of those. For some people this was their first time working on the progression and I don’t think it was clearly stated what exactly this was a progression to last night. So, have a look at this video from the main Crossfit website to see what exactly a muscle-up is and what it involves.
And that’s it! We better see you Saturday at the Potluck!

forgot to add – the muscle-up video has some interesting music. may scare off folks but otherwise it’s safe for work.
So…I did the first workout fine but had to switch from kipping pull-ups to jumping because my back was starting to get tight on me. Sucks…I wonder when it’ll get better, then again I usually have SOME kind of injury this time of year so no biggie. Needless to say I didn’t participate in the KB Swing ladder since it was the DB swing that screwed my back up in the first place!
Looking forward to Saturday! Can’t wait to have some more of those beans! ^o^
Sorry I missed the class. It looked like a good one. I had a friend’s birthday dinner to go to and it was probably good for my knee too. Today was the first day I have woken up without any kind of stiffness or pain (lets hope it stays that way).
Looking forward to Saturday and will be back in class on sunday.
Glad it sounds like the knee is getting better. Don’t push it on Sunday! I won’t be in class to say it in person so I’m saying it now!!
and I’ll give you little reminders Saturday too ;P
I’m hungry! Want potluck noooooooow~!
@Sara: I have to echo Maiko’s comment about *not* pushing your knee.
Frustrating? Yes (been there, done that). But in the long run, you are better off for taking it easy now. 🙂
Time to make the macaroni-and-cheese.
CrossFit DC’s own ODB is out…
Actually, in the background I am demonstrating how NOT to swing, following the bell down with the spine rounded.
More pics of Tuba, please.

Tuba, if that was you blowing your own horn (that was too easy) it would be more like:

Hmmm…I guess TubaSteve has a “secret” admirer out there. 🙂
