PRESERVE THE STIMULUS

Today is one of those days Unweighted & Minimal equipment athlete workouts are fairly different than full equipment athletes. The goal of the Unweighted & Minimal equipment versions are to preserve the stimulus of the Full equipment (aka at the gym) version of the WOD. Today we are doing this by increasing reps, altering a movement pattern, and adding a movement.

LIKE RIDING A BIKE...

… sort of. I did some double unders for the first time in a while the other day, and it wasn’t exactly like that old saying. We all know DUs are one of those things that some days you got ‘em and some you don’t. If you have been doing them hopefully today is a breeze, and if you haven’t make sure to gauge your calf & forearm fatigue - drop down to single unders if needed.

PART A - 4 ROUNDS FOR QUALITY | 12:00 CAP

2 Turkish Get Up Each Side

20 Abmat Situp

MEMORIAL DAY MURPH

HERO WOD “Murph” will be performed tomorrow, as a part of an annual Memorial Day CrossFit tradition. Although we can’t be physically together this year, this workout symbolizes (more than ever) CrossFit’s community and togetherness.

I dug up the following quote Rob posted last year. I hadn’t read this before, and think it perfectly resonates with what doing “Murph” is all about. (Shout out to @wolfgang2242 on Instagram)

This [day] is for remembering and loving those that have gone before us.  It's also a great time to think of those that are with us now.  These moments can be fleeting, it all changes, sometimes sooner than we would like.  Enjoy those you are with, whether there are many or few.  Cherish what is right now.  It's the best way to love. 

Thank you to all who have served our country, and to those who are serving right now.  

__

Whether you’ve participated in this annual WOD since you’ve started CrossFit, or if it’s your first time doing so, it’s important to see the history behind the workout and why it was conceived:

"Murph" is in memory of Navy Lieutenant Michael Murphy, 29, of Patchogue, N.Y., who was killed in Afghanistan June 28th, 2005.

This workout was one of Mike's favorites and he'd named it "Body Armor". From here on it will be referred to as "Murph" in honor of the focused warrior and great American who wanted nothing more in life than to serve this great country and the beautiful people who make it what it is.

- CrossFit.com (July 18, 2005)

Especially for those first timers, you may look at the WOD and be shocked at its volume. Don’t worry! We’ll have our usual scaling options and will strictly enforce a timecap. For those of you performing the workout on your own, please ensure you’re scaling appropriately. Be mindful of the workout volume and how much you’ve been doing lately. The class plan in the FB groups has scaling options and substitutes for workout movements. Please also follow the strict timecap.

UPDATE YOUR ZOOM

Zoom 5.0 is here! Chances are you’ve already been prompted to update your Zoom app. If you’re like me, and avoid those annoying pop ups, yours might not be updated. On 5/30 Zoom will force you to update your app if you try to join a session and have not already done so. That could delay your joining to the session on that day, so best to do it beforehand!

To update, click your initials in the top right corner of the Zoom app. Then click “Check for Updates”. If you’re up to date then you’re all set, but if you’re not Zoom will prompt you to update. Reach out with any questions!
