Our Christmas morning class was much smaller than we thought it would be. We had our two Zachs in attendance, and that was it. Since the class was light, we did Linda. AKA, the three bars of death. Me and the Zachs ground through this workout together....it was my first time attempting Linda. Ugh. Linda is 10 rounds of deadlift (1.5 x body weight), Bench press (body weight), and clean (75% body weight). Each round you do one less rep than the last, 10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1 DONE. Zach R has done this workout before, and he warned me that rounds 10-7 were going to SUCK. Even with his warning, there was no way I could have anticipated how hard those first few rounds were going to be! My new Christmas Lululemons definitely helped get me through the workout.

There are some people in the CrossFit who can finish this workout in as little as 9 minutes....but we are not those people. The three of us all took nearly 30 minutes to finish. I'm sorry Mom....my arms were just too tired to help with the dishes this year. You understand, right?
