CrossFit Total – Part 1

Anigabi (23 mos.) perfecting her deadlift

Benchmark WOD
1-1-1 Deadlifts
100 Burpees for time

The CrossFit Total benchmark will be split up over 3 days this week.  Today, we will attempt the deadlift portion of the benchmark.  Bring your journals to record your lifts and compare to your previous attempt 3 months ago.

Primal Challenge Starts today!

The best advice we can give you as you approach this challenge is to start off your day with a nutritional primal breakfast.  Traditional breakfast foods tend to be very carb-heavy and almost always contain some sort of grain, but they don’t have to.  Eggs are a great choice for a quick and easy breakfast, but there are plenty of other recipes and ideas out there.  We’ll try to post some recipes over the next few weeks, and please feel free to share any ideas you have with the rest of us.

Here’s a recipe for a breakfast sandwich we posted about several months ago.  You should also try doing a search for recipes within our site to see all the recipes we have posted in the past.  It should be a good selection to get you started with the challenge this week.

It is not too late to participate in the Primal Challenge.  If you still would like to sign up, please e-mail vero@g7crossfit.com and arrive 15-20 minutes before your class time today.  The challenge buy-in is $20.  The winner will receive the collected money as well as 1 month membership free.  Good luck, Athletes!
