Strong women getting after some Strongman events today!!! Building capacity in the Yoke Carry will have enormous carry over to the Back Squat. Overloading the trunk, and allowing the hips to function under substantial load has awesome physiological effects! The Atlas Stone is about as primal as an expression of strength can get. "Pick up heavy object". The importance of dialing in optimal technique on the most applicable force production archetype a human can endure can't be overstated. 🏋🏻🏃🤸‍♂️ By the way we are recruiting! 😎 Growing stronger, and fitter EVERYDAY!

Wellwood Orchards

So cool, we have interest from a venue to host us!!! We are hopeful that we will be able to host the first Super Total Exhibition of the year in front of a decent crowd at The Strawberry Festival at Wellwood orchards on June 24th! This is a great spot, and many of us who live in the area have spent a lot of great times at Wellwood throughout the years. This will be a great opportunity for all of us athletes to showcase our talents, and help get the word out about functional fitness, particularly Weightlifting + Powerlifting. Super Total; Establish 1 Rep max in each of the following movements; Snatch Clean & Jerk Squat Bench Press Deadlift. Once we get our logistical situation figured out, buckled down, and locked in, we'll send out our invitations for athlete participation. Us CrossFitters will have our time to shine on June 24th. Please message expressing interest, and let your fellow CrossFit Buddies know! We will not be able to have a really LARGE pool of athletes as 5 events will take a good chunk of time. Volunteers aiding in loading/unloading/changing weights, as well as video/photography/social media/livestream will be compensated in some way, I don't know how just yet, but we'll see!

Last round of "Helen-ish" 3RFT 400m Run 21 RKBS 12 K2C Great job!

Quite the difference in stimulus between this and the conventional deadlift! We all had a blast. Awesome job Beth! Of course we had to wrap up the day continuing to progress with our pistol (single leg squat) work!

Barb pulling Sumo for the first time today! Great job!
