Get up!

Turkish get ups are a drill of strength and coordination. It strengthens and improves your core (mid-line stabilization), major muscle groups, stabilizer muscles, connective tissues, tendons and ligaments. Not only will the turkish getup build strength, but it also aids in balance, coordination, flexibility and shoulder rotation. Overall, it is a power packed punch to your body. That being said, any guess what today's workout is going to include??? :)

WOD~
5Rounds
5 Turkish Get Ups each arm (35/25#)
10 pull ups
10 push ups

KB Juggling



Above is a video of Jeff Martone from Tactical Athlete demonstrating the elite levels of kettlebell training. Jeff is an extremely knowledgeable guy, great athlete, and an extremely amazing person as a whole. We saw this demonstration last year during the KB certification we took. Amazing stuff! (The good stuff starts around 1 minute, 30 seconds into the clip. Fast forward to then if you don't have a lot of time. It's worth seeing!)

WOD ~ "Love Your Kettlebell"
3 Rounds:
30 KB clean and press (15 each side)
20 KB front squat
10 KB swing

Jeremy

This is the website that we were talking about. Play the video and look at the middle poster in the background around 30 seconds into it. Dina is displayed on a HUGE poster at Crossfit Hollywood doing pull ups with Hailey around her waist.

Many of you ask us where the names of the Crossfit workouts come from. They began using the names of the most deadliest storm, which are typically named after women, for the Crossfit WODs. In addition, WODs are named after fallen military, police, and firefighters. Many of which were in the Crossfit community. Occassionally, there are a few WODs named after the Crossfit icons, such as Kelly Moore, Nicole Carroll, and Annie Sakamoto. However, today's workout is none of the above. Read the post from HQ about "Jeremy":

Three year old Jeremy Bloniasz lost his life in a tragic accident Thursday, July 6th (2006). To Jeremy's parents, Kelly and Jeremy, the entire CrossFit family offers our deepest sorrow. In young Jeremy's honor the following kid's workout will be known from here on as "Jeremy."

Cindy

Steve practicing some gymnastics skills on the parallettes. Parallette training is fun and highly developmental. Without gymnastics training we are missing the crucial body movement components: coordination, accuracy, agility, and balance which are available to athletes. Parallettes training is an important addition to your gymnastics development.
