For Good Measure, A Few More
Jay checked off two goals today. 30 pull ups done, nice. The other one is an athletic standard – Overhead squat body weight 15 times. Jay weighs 85 kilos.
Overhead Squat BW 15 reps from CrossFit Portland on Vimeo.
We modify, scale, and cook up what ever is necessary to appropriately challenge you. Today was Flint’s first class and can you see that he is in an ankle boot on his right leg? Scott cooked up something specific for Flint and he got his first dose of CrossFit, boot and all. Nice job Flint!
Tami, did I mention your OHS position is looking awesome!

One of Lael’s goals is an unassisted pull up. She got in good work towards it tonight with over 40 band assisted pull ups. An example of modification and scaling to challenge ones ability fully.

A workout we borrowed from CrossFit Southwest:
Spades= 4 mountain clibers
Hearts= squats
Clubs= pushups
Diamonds= situps
Jokers= 10 burpees
Face cards=10 reps; aces= 11 reps. If you finish before the group, hold your position until everyone finishes. We worked thru the whole deck for around 30 minutes of fun!

I’m back in the burbs of Chi-town visiting the family for Thanksgiving. Stopped by WindyCity CrossFit to get a workout in and met up with the owner Justin Marcis. Really cool place and good people. They just moved to their new location and it is like the inside of an engine (CAP cranes hang from steel beams) meets gymnastic rings and Olympic weights.
Calling artists, we need some decals in the gym
