We regret to inform interested participants that due to a scheduling conflict there will be NO TEASER CLASS this Saturday.
The Nerve Tank has been performing their new show, "A Gathering" at the Lyceum on Thursdays at 8:30pm. They're offering a significant discount to CrossFitters ($10 per show as opposed to $18). Why not class up your post WOD ritual with this "dark, metaphysical thriller that questions the nature of identity and bodied presence." Simply say that you're part of CrossFit South Brooklyn, drop a Hamilton and enjoy the show!
Lots of nice comments about SBK from Monday's Mainsite post:

I counted attempts. Man that was hard. I was gassed big time.
kb swings were really difficult too.
Posted by: gabrus | April 16, 2009 at 10:13 AM
Fun time this morning!
Annie: 8:34 PR
KB Swings were slightly frustrating as I tried to nail the form.
Feel better David!

Oh, that's cruel.
Just cruel.
I'm still getting over this cold and wont be in class tonight... again.
I can't believe I'm missing this.
Posted by: Erik K. | April 16, 2009 at 11:24 AM
Erik -- I was just thinking I'd see you in class tonight fo'sure given this WOD came up. Sorry you caught the Martian Death Flu, feel better bro.
Posted by: Dan R | April 16, 2009 at 12:24 PM
Gabrus and Brian, what weight did you end up using on those KB swings?
Posted by: Dan R | April 16, 2009 at 12:28 PM
16 kg
Posted by: gabrus | April 16, 2009 at 01:07 PM
Subbed singles for double-unders (for the last time, David says), and air squats for pushups (banned to the pregnant).
10:18.
Double-unders, here I come. Have been holding off practicing those as jumping can feel like someone is punching my bladder (someone probably actually is), but I sense they are in my near future.

Was just talking with Brandy -- have we started to plan hotels and travel up to Albany for the qualifier? Sounds like hotels and such are getting booked and potentially sold out already...
Posted by: Dan R | April 16, 2009 at 03:40 PM
Hey all,
I am going to be organizing SBK's trip to the qualifiers - David will be posting about that shortly.
Posted by: Margie | April 16, 2009 at 03:47 PM
Sounds good Margie!

You crazy big-city folk and your expansive urban lexicon...
Thanks for the hospitality last week CFSBK!

Posted by: Sameer Parekh | April 16, 2009 at 07:27 PM
Annie as rx'd: 7:15
Poor showing on my part, last PR was 6:15.
More recovery is needed.
Posted by: Dan R | April 16, 2009 at 07:39 PM

Annie as rx'd 11: something
KB Swings, 1.5 pood

Posted by: Dan R | April 16, 2009 at 08:12 PM
holy crap Sal! awesome
Posted by: .DMG | April 16, 2009 at 08:49 PM
Holy Crap - 107
Now the century mark has been broken.
Erik - time for us to step up! Kick that bug buddy.
Dan - I used 12kg KB this morning. Really wanted to concentrate on form and not get blasted.
Posted by: Brian | April 16, 2009 at 09:11 PM
12:30 something, but at least it was Rx'd, have to figure out how to chain double-unders. Margie, thanks for the instruction.
"A Gathering" was certainly something.
Posted by: Lil Beefcake | April 16, 2009 at 10:03 PM
Snatch x15
1 rep on the minute, increase weight 1.5kg after 5 reps
Reps 1-5, 52#
Reps 6-10, 55#
Reps 10-15, 58# (missed rep 12)
Annie: 10:01 PR
Sal, that's fantastic!!
And great job to Adam for pushing through!
Posted by: Margie | April 16, 2009 at 10:11 PM
Started off with some presses.
195x1 (PR)
180.5x3x3
Annie
Time 10:02
First time doing Annie as Rx'd, the double-unders still annoy the shit out of me.
Kettlebell Swings, 1 1/2 pood
R1: 65 reps
R2: 45 reps
Grip was fried the 2nd round.

One of my early goals when starting Crossfit was to be able to open my own jars. Well that was long ago met as a goal, but tonight I took it to the next level. Tonight, 2 times (!!) Paul was unable to open his own jars (salsa and applesauce) at our house. But no need to worry ! I was able to help him out with both. I'm sure he'd just tell you he loosened them up, but we all know who's stronger don't we.
Posted by: sarah | April 16, 2009 at 11:05 PM
all too well, all too well.
Posted by: paul | April 16, 2009 at 11:06 PM
I've said it before and I'll say it again, Sarah is my favorite CrossFitter!!
Just woke up,still trying to kick this bug. I consumed potentially toxic levels of Airborne and cough drops today. See you all this weekend.
Posted by: David | April 17, 2009 at 01:04 AM
