CrossFit for Hope



On Saturday June 9th starting at 11am, we will be hosting the CrossFit for Hope St. Jude Children's Hospital charity WOD. There will be a $5 minimum donation to participate. Depending on the number of participants, we will be running the WOD in heats and at the conclusion of the last heat, there will be a paleo potluck in which everyone can chow down, hang out, and have fun post-WOD!!!

I know everyone is wondering what the WOD is going to be. Well, here it is. Everyone, meet "Hope".

3 rounds of:

Burpees
75# Power snatch
Box Jump, 24"
75# Thruster
Chest-to-bar pull-ups

"Hope" has the same format as Fight Gone Bad. In this workout you move from each of the five stations after a minute. This is a five-minute round from which a one-minute break is allowed before repeating. The clock does not stop or reset between exercises. On call of "rotate," the athletes must move to the next station immediately for a good score. One point is given for each rep.

No need to feel intimidated. We will scale any of the movements as necessary. If you would like to participate, please email us at xfourthree@gmail.com

Advanced notice of your participation will be a huge help in keeping on schedule and keeping the flow of the day running smoothly.
