Countdown

48 days until the the CrossFit Games Open begins. I can't believe it's come around again this quickly! That gives, what, seven weeks to get ready? I've got some work to do, especially on the lifestyle front, that should help me fill some of the gaps in performance. I've been kicking the bejeesus out of my cardio capabilities and gravity isn't as good as a friend as it could be to help with some of the gymnastics movements. Two skills I'd really like to work on would be fixing my jerk and getting HSPUs. I also have that lovely right hamstring injury I'm trying to heal up. Being off heavy squats and deads should give me extra time to spend on oly and gymnastics. Yay!

Even though I had a blast traveling to Edmonton last year for the sectional event, I kind of like the new format. It's less stress on the body and the pocket book. I will miss getting to meet people from other gyms and the excitement that comes from competing in-person, though.

What's wrong with your Jerk? What the hek did you do to your hamstring? Are you using the GHD for rehab?
