  1. Definitely coming in for this. Maybe you could call it whole body origami.

  2. Front squat fail at 235 so based my set on 230. The 1st set we didn't add correctly and did 220 for the 2's then I did 210 for the remaining sets.

    PP PR at 155lb - up from 135. For my sets Darci set to drop the weight since it hurts to lower it and that worked fine. Did my sets at 135.

    C1/C2/C3/C4 - the hardest part was that elegant movement. It was really tough! I ring pushups were pretty easy to Meika had me try the ring support pushups and that was TOUGH! Loved the step up and 1 legged GHD's.

  3. Nice work on the PR Kurt!

    I really enjoyed today's WOD... I saw alot of people get PRs on the lifts. Jeff PR-ed on both lifts !

    I did a push press PR of 105 lb , very happy with that...

    Alot of name suggestions were given for the elegant gymnastic movement exercise... not sure how we narrow it down ... lol
