Alright. Given that the open wod is going to make this place kuh-RAY-zee today, I'm changing up our programming to the following. It's not what I originally wrote, but we're rolling with the Open punches and we'll get some serious skills drilled. So here we go:


A) Clean and jerk skills. Like a lot of them. Don't worry, I have a list. And it's great. 

B)  20min to find 2RM clean and jerk. We will be doing this with likely 2 or 3 barbells. Be prepared to partner up and move the weights quickly.

C)  partner WOD, 3 rounds each. 2:00 to perform 15 burpees, max Russian twist with remaining time.

[vc_row][vc_column width="1/1"][text_output]WORKOUT 15.5 27-21-15-9 reps for time of: Row (calories) Thrusters Men use 95 lb. Women use 65 lb. If you are coming in today to perform the workout, it is important that you read this[/text_output][accordion][accordion_item title="Notes"]

This workout begins seated on the rower with the monitor set to zero calories. At the call of “3-2-1 … go,” the athlete will grab the handle and begin rowing. Once you have rowed 27 calories you will move to the barbell for 27 thrusters, then back to the rower for the round of 21, and so forth. Each time you return to the rower you or your judge must reset the monitor to zero before rowing.

Every second counts in this workout. Your score will be the time it takes to complete all 144 repetitions. There is no time cap for this workout.

This workout ends when the final rep of the thruster is locked out overhead. Time will be recorded in full seconds. Do not round up. If you finish in 9:25.7, your score is 9:25.[/accordion_item][accordion_item title="Scaled"](Scaled Men, Scaled Masters Men 40-44, Scaled Masters Men 45-49, Scaled Masters Men 50-54, Scaled Women, Scaled Masters Women 40-44, Scaled Masters Women 45-49, Scaled Masters Women 50-54)

This limits us to 5 people running through the wod at a time. So here is how Saturday is going to work. I will be at the gym at 7:30. I will be running heats at 30 minute intervals through the day to give everyone the time to get this all finished. I will be running the warm ups, while I will have another coach taking people through the wod. There will be a max of 10 people to sign up for each hour long slot. 5 will go at the hour mark (8:00) and the other 5 will judge at the :30 mark (8:30) of each hour. 8:00 (max 10 people) 9:00 (max 10 people) 10:00 (max 10 people) 11:00 (max 10 people) 12:00 (max 10 people) These are first come first serve, when you arrive, that is when you can write your name on the board.

By: 0

Want to try to win something? for doing something super easy? Get in on our weekly guessing game! Prize: $10 Rogue Gift Card When does it start: The guessing is officially open as soon as this post goes up each week. So, now! Who can guess: Any current or past members of CrossFit South Bend! Shout out to all of the CFSB Alumnus. How do you get in on the action: To get your guess in, all you have to do is post to the comments section of THIS POST. What you are going to post:
You must enter both... 1. The movement(s) that you think will be released in tonight's wod. 2. Time domain: This will be the tie breaker, you may guess the same as another person, but if you have the closest time domain, you win. You may also guess that the workout will be open ended.
If two people accidentally guess the same movements and time domains, it will go to the person who posted it first. Winner goes to the person that gets the movements correct that week. 
So, the comments section should look like this. Brandon: Thrusters and Burpees – open ended. Savannah: Pull Ups and Box Jumps – 5 minutes Emily C: Pull Ups and box jumps – 7 minutes. Carl: Thrusters – 4 minutes Amy: Cat Stuff - Open ended Robby: Sitting - 35 minutes You get the idea
