    THANK YOU from Coach Kirsten!!

    I am happy to report that I finished the Nor Cal Regionals in 14th place! This was one of the most fun and exciting weekends of my life and it would not have been the same without all the incredible support from all of you at the gym! Thank you to all of you that gave up your weekend to come cheer for me! Your cheers, smiles, signs (and awesome t-shirts) made the weekend absolutely unforgettable! Our gym is amazing because of the people that are in it. Thank you to each and every one of you for making CrossFit Davis the best!

    Happy Memorial Day! Remember that we are running classes today at 10, 11 and 12 only. 

    In years past we have run “Murph” on Memorial Day.  Today we’re going to do it a little differently.  The WOD for today is still going to be Murph. Only this time we’re going to have you guys do it in groups of 2, 3 or 4.  The amount of people in your group is up to you based on how much work you choose to do today.  You can break up the reps however you would like between you and your partner/team.  Only one person may be working at a time.  So choose a friend and have fun!

    “Murph”

    1 mile run

    100 Pull ups

    200 Push Ups

    300 Squats 

    1 mile run

    This workout is in memory of Navy Lieutenant Michael Murphy, 29, of Patchogue, NY, who was killed in Afghanistan June 28th, 2005. This workout was one of Mike’s favorites and he’d named it ‘Body Armor.’ From here on it will be referred to as ‘Murph’ in honor of the focused warrior and great American who wanted nothing more in life than to serve this great country and the beautiful people who make it what it is.

    NorCal Regionals are happening this Friday-Sunday in Santa Rosa!  Over the next few days we’ll work some of the events into our regular programming.  Use this opportunity to compare yourself to Northern California’s premier Crossfitters.  

    If you are coming out this weekend to cheer on coach Kirsten be sure to bring some supplies.  We don’t know what the facilities will be like so come prepared! Bring water, chairs, sunscreen and whatever else you might need.

    Strength

    Kipping skills practice, Work on refining your  kipping or butterfly pull-up and/or  muscle-up on the bar or rings.   You’ll need efficiency, skill and strength to get multiple reps on the rings. 

    Do 5 sets for max reps on the rings or use bands for assistance and work on the transition. If you aren’t quite there yet get some work in on your pull-ups and dips. 3 max sets of pull-ups and dips as strict as possible.
