Not a big fan of overhead squats, but learning how to do them. Here are a couple of photos showing my form, which is apparently pretty good, but not with a lot of weight (25k). Do I look like I’m struggling here?
Check out www.beyondthewhiteboard.com – really neat Crossfit website. It has an encyclopedia of workouts cross-referenced by movement. I find that really handy; on the days that I work out at home, I’ll often want to do a workout that includes some movement that I haven’t done in a while or includes some piece of equipement I have. So, for example, I could find all of the workouts that include ring dips. Just doing that quick lookup, I found a couple of new workouts that I can do at home. Well done!
Yup, that’s me in the lower left of the 2008 crossfit collage for Crossfit Eastside. Happy New Year to my friends there and I’m looking forward to a great 2009 working out with you.
