It's all genetics

Saturday workouts are always a blast. Plus there are so many new faces popping up... I love it! Today's workout didn't disappoint.

8 rounds

Burpees 30 sec
DB DL's (45 lbs) 30 sec
rest 30 sec

Score:

20 20 18 17 17 16 16 20

total = 144

There were some pretty high scores being thrown out every round... maybe I need to justify my low numbers? You see, I have long legs and short arms which makes me inherently bad at DL. It means I have to move the weight more distance to complete a rep... so technically, I'm doing more work per rep than a person with shorter legs and longer arms. So, the logical suggestion is... who the hell cares? Evidently there is an interesting article in the new crossfit journal relating to this issue. After I read it I'll comment on it... but for now, I feel like I don't give a shit what body type I am or you are. Lets just throw down and have some damn fun! I had a great time with everybody today...

thanks to all
