I went up 20 lbs on my deadlift, bringing me to 165 lbs. I was a little over a minute slower on Helen but I used the 35 lb KB instead of the 25 lb. I also did all of the pull-ups on the red band. Last month I used the blue for 2 rounds then the yellow for the last round. Maybe next month I will be able to do kipping pull-ups. So Sarah, I am going to need you to come back to the night class.

Great work today Becky N. Not only a new PR for 3 rep dead lifts but also an impressive RX’d Helen. CrossFit Games in 2010?

basil – you destroyed those runs! watching you push it was huge encouragement to keep going.

this was my first helen since march and first time rx: 12:04. definitely improved kb swings since last time. next on the “needs work” list=pull ups. doing more than one at a time would be amaaaazing.

3-3-3 DLs at 315#-365#-315#, form good-bad-good,

Helen with 55# KB @ 10:59, PR for 55#DB but about 45 seconds longer than Rx. I took Dave’s advice to make up time in the run and it was the ruin of me by round 3.

Sarah D I missed your fundraiser but want to get my hands on one of those shirts, I hear you might order more, true? Just need a size Large.

Did not finish my DLs before starting Helen. First set was 3x 315#.

Helen Rxd in 9:02. PR’d (June 1st) by a whopping 2 seconds.

Finished up with some 315# and 225# Deadlifts and Handstand practice. See you in the morning!
