Three rounds for time of:
30 Toes to bar
95 pound Ground to overhead, 21 reps

I don’t need get stronger…blasphemy
Question of the day:
What color scheme/paint-job would you like to see in the new CFHSV facility?
For those competiting in Faction Games, here is a link for lifting stones.

See, last week, I told y’all we oughtta add Atlas Stones to the CFHSV toolbox,(along with the VW Bug suggestion) when KLowe was blasting away the heavy Deadlifts….
Now, we REALLY need them!!!
Thanks for finding and sharing Karen!! =o)

Toes to bar were slow.
2 + 42 at 14 min cutoff. Scaled to 75 pounds.
Everything was slow today. Felt a pinch in my right arm everytime it was overhead. The stretch work on the roller and racket balls helped a ton. I should have done it before the wod, instead of afterward.
nice link!
“Yeah. Now go for a run, fatty.”
17:52
This one is a lot worse than it looks. Linked first 15 ttb, then it all went to crap.
10:29 rx…
Absolutely insane that they had this as 1 of 3 Workouts in one WOD at the games. With a cap of 7 minutes! Much Much worse then it looks.
2 rounds + 4 as Rx’d – I seriously underestimated this one. The ttb were tough!
I really like this pic! Nice tat, whoever that is!!
Pretty sure that’s Joe C
Ahh… thanks, Justin! I couldn’t tell, but it’s definitely an awesome pic!
Love the Athlete Profile for Faction KLowe!! Just love it!
I wonder if/how I can incorporate digging postholes and vaccinating cattle into mine…
Okay, so I found myself giggling out loud reading that, K Lowe! You are hilarious!!!
DMR approved snatch… Outstanding!!!!
2+5 @ 14 minutes
Tough WOD.
2 + 20 at 14 min cutoff rx’d. Bad ground to overhead form – hopefully one day my brain and body will connect for this stuff.
17:13 as rxed. (2 rounds + 14 ttb @ 14:00 cutoff)
Oops it was 21 Ttb at 14min. Sorry!
As rxd. 2 rnds at 14.
Hands started tearing quick which made the TTB’s slow and painful. Did power snatches for all overheads.
QOD: I’m not an interior decorator, but I do like the raw feeling of our current hell hole. I think it just needs to be an atmosphere that keeps us true to our style of fitness.
Every time I stop by Matrix to take a shower I’m completely amazed. First, at how freezing ass cold it is in there, which must make the globo workouts super tough. Also, the cleanliness… it makes me feel dirty.
Agreed. Needs to still look “tough” 🙂
Barbed Wire…..On everything.
ok – almost 2 weeks after the max bench/pullup workout i can straighten my left arm out again! going to have to take it easy working back into this thing. SCALED to 55# 30T2B/21 20K2E/21 10T2B/21….12:17. No comments on the paint color but I was thinking Blood Red and Bruise Purple!
Ditto Jason and Will. I was thinking about the QOD last night and all I could think about was if Behr could match blood, sweat, tears and chalk?
paint the gym the color of humility, pain, and exhaustion.
What is CrossFit?

Gotta what the whole thing to see Russell being a badass.
saw the video up when I got home tonight and as soon as I saw the shoes i knew it was Russell
2 rounds + 5 at 14min cutoff as rx’d
QOD: I’ve been thinking about this since last night! Of course, I do have an opinion and here it is. I would love for it to stay raw looking. So, how about a true gray with blood red and black accents. Would love to see a HUGE mural of barbed wire or a funky tattoo in black! BTW…the building looks great from the outside. Will it say Crossfit Huntsville above the entrance???
Im with Gina. Use our new symbol (H) as logo on wall. I really just want walls, roof and air flow.
1RD+37 scaled to 75.over head is very weak need to work on my form.
Sheetrock, tape, no paint, and kick a few holes in it. Boom, it will be just like the CFHSV we all love…
Find a local Tattoo artist that like to paint murals, and have them do something like CF Fenway.

WOD: As Rx’ed-2 rds even in 14:00 min cut-off
QOD: I think we have a couple of talented artists amongst the CF family….that would be really cool to have some of ‘our own’ do the work. =o)
I’m with the flat gray/slate with red/black accents.
And, maybe on another wall (in the more ‘finished’ areas), or even in the dressing rooms, halls, front entrance, have some of Russell’s best B&W WOD pics enlarged and arranged in collages. I <3 photography, and think this would be a neat personal touch, to show the element of family/community that we have.
Kerri….Love Love the collage idea!!!!
dark gray or black walls with red splatter paint maybe?
powder blue and bronze for the ladies room…brushed cooper fixtures. I may move in. 🙂
2 rds + 12, 45# ground to oh, and 21 knees to chest.
Scaled with 15 toe to bar each round. Ground to overhead as rx.
At 14:00 cut-off: 2 rounds + 11 ground to overhead (all snatches).
At Crossfit Firebase in Orlando, FL…
AMRAP in 12 Minutes of:
5 Deadlifts @ 155lbs
250m Run
8 Burpees
Finished 5 rounds + 250m run
rx: 11:15
-watching the CF games really helped me on this one. I forgot which athlete it was but he had a great “double harmonic” kip going once he lost his first TTB kip. Normally I’m all singles after losing my first TTB mojo. Tonight it was 4’s and 3’s.
-if is wasn’t obvious enough already. The “double harmonic” term is not mine. I thank my engineer genius brother for that lingo. Thanks Larry.
-reverse hypers are the devil
Rx’d
12:56
Nice job to Klowe and Ty for handing it to me today.
2rd + 37 at 14 min cutoff
QOD: Okay, I’m no decorator but pick a color card with 2 shades of grey that you like. One light and a second 2 shades darker. Starting at floor: light grey up about 3 feet, then a 6 inch blood red stripe, dark grey up to 10 feet, a second blood red stripe, light grey up to the ceiling. A deep bruise purple would also work well for accents/stripes.
You can use the upper stripe as the WB target and the dark grey will hide heel marks from HSPU. That’s all I got.
