Sleep is one of the most underrated tools to improve performance and recovery. It is so important that early man still slept even though they did not have the secure environment of houses, locks, and security systems. Early man was low on the food chain more prey than predator, and yet from sundown to sunup […]

We often see accessory work programmed consisting of trunk work, mobility, prehab/rehab, and even bodybuilding. Is this just to fill the hour, or is it important? Of course it is, and let me explain why! The fact that it happens to be at the end of the workout does not mean it is less important. […]

The law of individuality tells us we are all the same, but we are all different. We are all made of blood and tissue but how we approach things or respond is individual. Everyone will respond differently based on genetics, stress load, nutrition, and recovery. However, there are some general things that you can focus […]

Sounds like a hard WOD today! I went to crossfit Houma today. It was a good workout, but I did miss CFWH!
AMRAP in 20 min:
400 m run
7 push press
10 windshield wipers
I did 6 rounds with 45# bar on the push press. Windshield wipers are hard!

Wod: 12:?? With chest to bar pull ups- and an extra 750 m row at the end (not included in time)
This WOD completely broke me down. I haven’t struggled this hard in a long time, even though my hands ripped. I struggled to make contact with my chest for each and every rep.
Thank you Crossfit gods for this humbling experience. Like I told Ana yesterday, sometimes you have to be broken down on a WOD to appreciate the good days and get stronger.
Also did rowing sprints, running sprints, and a burpee/ hang clean WOD after this.

@Steph…Monday’s WOD was my breaking point…it really did break me! I loved it though…those humbling experiences make you stronger!
I also struggled with the chest to bar…I took more breaks on my pull ups than I have ever taken before…but I really wanted to do chest to bar…so away I went!
BTW…I ripped my hand on this one too! Just one rip…not as bad as Steph Do’s hands…gosh, I have never seen anything like that!
Today, I am MOST sore from the GHD sit ups I did after this WOD…OMG, my abs are SOOOOO sore!
Make it a great day guys!!!!

I forgot my 500m extra credit row (1:58) at the end which pales in comparison to all the craziness Steph did!
But hey, it was my fastest yet! 🙂
