SBK talks food.
Sunday 5th of April. From 1-2:30pm, Free
Food is a necessary and sometimes wonderful, sometimes vexing part of our lives. As athletes, our questions surrounding food become even more complicated: what should I eat, when should I eat and how much? What if I want to lean out? Or gain mass? What about eating for endurance vs. weightlifting? What does it really mean to "eat healthy"?
Spend an hour learning the basics about your food quality, quantity and timing. We'll touch on the paleo diet, Zone portions and how to safely experiment with eating to support your performance. There will be plenty of time for questions
Yum! Paleo pizza?

I am sooo bummed. I am going to be on vacation in Puerto Vallarta (eating lots of fresh fruit and seafood!) - on April 5th. I really really hope you'll do this again sometime in the future.
Crossfit is AWESOME! See you tonight

Back Squatx3: 165,185,205,220,225x1
21-15-9 Kettlebell swing, Knees to Elbows-7:26
Knees didn't make it to elbows on all of them, but on substantially more than usual. I think it was the pointer about pulling the lats "through" the shoulders. Viewing it as an essentially horizontal exercise versus vertical helped me get everything working the right way.
The single 225 back squat was a failure of x3, but matched my PR for singles. If I don't watch out I may eke out some progress.
Jack and Malcolm made it possible, thanks.

Back Squat (wu 65x5, 95x5 135x5)
165x3, 205x3, 235x3 255x3 165x5
first time doing any leg work. felt pretty good. didnt want to push it. 3rd rep of 255 was not pretty. went light to dial back in form.
acc WOD 6:55. fun little burner. first time doing most knees to elbows. as david pointed out, using the lats definitely bring the knees up. nice.

stoked about the BSQ. Not so stoked about Bethany's shoulder.
Nicole, I can't wait till we test your 1RM - I see 175 or 180. Grin.

Wow, nice work everyone! Wish I could have been there to cheer people on, fates conspired against me though. Will look to see everyone tomorrow, err... today.

BSQ warmup was fine but once the bar got heavy my shoulder started burning:
115x3
Messed around with high bar and dumbbell squats but they hurt too so switched to Front Squat:
90x3
110x3
105x3
110x1-fail
Accessory WOD, 3:35 subbing one-handed swings @ 12kg and situps for K2E.
Anything that comes between me and back squatting with the ladies is SO NOT COOL!

BSQ 3x5, 165,185,205,220,225=pr
Enjoyed lifting with Malcolm and Don-you guys are strong and we pushed each other.
ACC:21-15-9 1 arm KB swings, yellow(33lbs?) and situps. Don't have my time cause someone forgot to set my timer, but it seemed awful quick, def. not more than 4 minutes. Best thing about yesterday's workout was getting scolded about my penmanship-tried to find a video on the main site or an article in the Journal about proper white board protocol-came up empty.
