Smashed Fingers. That sounds like a good workout name. But this time it is a description of Corey's fingers because he had a bit of a gravity + large rock incident. On the calendar was Fran but he was unable to close his hand or pull so that left thrusters and pullups out. We mulled over a few things and came up with Ivan the Terrible but changed the 100 singles to 50 double unders, 40, 30 and so on descending with the other reps. After that Corey did 100 benches with 135 in 6:21...that's 2 mintues faster than I could do 50. He thought 100 was the number, missing entirely that we did only 50. He did 40 in the first minute. Emily got her kip on and was working it after the workout. She'll have her chin up over that bar in no time. Oh...Rachel did 2 handstand pushups with me holding her ankles and walked over to the bench, took 135 off the rack and did half a rep. I thought it was cool that she just yarded it off the rack and lowered it to her chest without hesitation.
My legs are sore. The bowl made me really sore. I was demonstrating the One Leg Stand during a DUI arrest last night and I winced while standing on one foot. Fortunately the driver was too drunk to notice that I was under the influence of CrossFit.
