CrossFit West Houston WOD
Strict Press
3 x 5 (start at 20 lbs less than 5 Rep Max
The first 3 months of CrossFit West Houston were in Memorial Park and Terry Hershey Park. I had very limited equipment so many of the early workouts were bodyweight. Here is one from Feb of 2009.
Note in the picture that there wasn’t a Rogue, Get RX’d, Fitness Depot etc back then. There were not rigs for pull ups. This was built by Sandra’s Dad. Later in 2009 we had a welder build a pull up “rig”. It was just that a pull up rig. There were no squat racks built into it. Just a place to do pull ups.

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. […]

Everyone will respond differently based on genetics, stress load, nutrition, and recovery. However, there are some general things that you can focus […]

On January 21st, CrossFit West Houston turned ten years old. Ten years in business is a pretty big milestone. Big milestones offer a time to reflect on the good, the bad and the ugly.
