(Disclosure #1) Whoever is coaching the 4p tomorrow I may be skipping the stretching cool down because I will probably be on rep # 10 or so at that point. (Disclosure #2) Whoever is coaching 5p I may jump in your stretching cool down as that may be the time I finish.

I’m about 69% sure we did Isabel this fall — maybe oct/nov? But I didn’t find it. Anyone remember when we did it? I know we did this summer — it was 7/26/12.

I feel you Donald, I feel you.

I stand corrected! On 10/26/12 we did 30 snatches at 145#.

Donald you will do RX and like it. Best case scenario is when I’m done I will come over and kick the bar towards you.
Round
Shawn suck it up.
Round
Jon F. don’t you have to get some bananas to turn yellow or something besides worry about your snatch ;-o
Round
Can’t wait til we get to make a bunch of snatch jokes tommorow. I fell sorry for the 4p coach tomorrow. I also missed Bill Abbott today, well I did see him a little bit today when he was screaming at me during the endurance class.
Snatch (in my best Beavis and Butthead voice)

That’s it. Give me a day; I’m gonna post some good snatch jokes. Up to now I’ve been holding back bc it is cliche. No longer.

B. Rice that was epic. On a more serious note, the mainsite WOD for tomo is a hero WOD, “Sean”. Tonight I got a call from a HS classmate of mine, I trained him in crossfit two summers ago. The fallen soldier dedicated to this workout, “Sean”, was his staff sergeant in the military. So, I will be doing this hero WOD around ten or eleven tomo if anybody is interested in joining.

Got up to 125 on strength. Was a bit over zealous eith my 15 lb jump to 140 on the last one. 2:51 Rx. 1 second PR. Ha!
Posted on January 22nd, 2013 at 10:52 am
Donald…I feel you on this workout, I struggled with it. Hopefully, you will struggle with it more than me!!!! jk! 7:16 rx. Stayed at 95# on strength.
Insert snatch joke here*

KT said snatch
Posted on January 22nd, 2013 at 1:38 pm
I loved it! Disclaimer: at 55# but 4:46 in time.
Posted on January 22nd, 2013 at 2:51 pm
2:51rx

All I have gathered from these posts is:
1. Everyone is feeling Donald up!!
2. Snatches are over rated! (trust me on this one).
3. Donald is RXing his snatch today.
4. Alissa’s snatch is obviously over zealous and maybe under rated.
5. Jon has broken his promise of snatch jokes.
6. I think B. Rice called himself a butthead…(freak)!
7. I really dislike missing bench mark girls especially when it involves snatches!
Kill it Donald!! You will finish RX or I will kick your a$$!!
ROUND!!

Have to give a huge shout out to Randy after the 6am class for nailing his first Bar MU. As a Coach, it was amazing to see the light come on after so many weeks of attempting. He was getting ready to write the goal on the PG-13 board and decided to go ahead and get it over with…great job Randy!!!
Posted on January 22nd, 2013 at 4:40 pm
Ronna I hope this message gets to you in time…I finished Rx…oh gosh I hope she’s not on her way to hurt me. Someone who has her number call her I really don’t want her kicking my a$$. Now I will say it took me a while but I did finish. I love my 4p crew including the coaches and KT also came over to yell obscenities at me you all are awesome this place is awesome! Jeff and B Rice killed it today nice work!
Posted on January 22nd, 2013 at 5:56 pm
Great job Donald!! I knew you would!! Besides I am pretty sure you can out run me!!
Posted on January 22nd, 2013 at 6:17 pm
Ronna, you have no idea how underrated my snatch is.
Posted on January 22nd, 2013 at 6:21 pm
Nice work Randy!!! Also, great coaching during the lunch time WOD. Nothing like a little snatch during a nooner with Mary and Meg!
Posted on January 22nd, 2013 at 7:13 pm
I left my red 2 pood weight belt tonight, so if any one sees it please put it up front
Posted on January 22nd, 2013 at 7:26 pm
@Ronna: Everything I wrote was too foul for the interwebs. For instance, my first snatch joke started:
“A barbell, a beaver, a piece of trim, and a tuna fish all walked into a bar.”
As you can see, this joke had nowhere to go but down.
Posted on January 22nd, 2013 at 7:27 pm
3:50 Rx. That’s a 4:06 PR
Posted on January 22nd, 2013 at 7:30 pm
I agree Shawn a little snatch with Mary and Megan is nice. What is really cool is that these female coaches all have such nice snatches and they are willing to share their knowledge of their snatches with us!
sorry there wasn’t enough snatch jokes…B Rice is slackin today

First of all alot of you don’t know that Isabel wasn’t the original name for the WOD. It was actually called “Massengill” for some reason. Grace had mastered her clean and jerk, but was unhappy with her snatch. Grace used Massengill to clean up her snatch technique. Eventually Massengill got married and changed her name to Isabel, thus why the WOD is called Isabel. This can be verified by the internet on Wikipedia or Snopes or Coach Meg. Everything is real on the internet.
Round
Plus Bill Abbott misses hugging you so you need to get to 4P sometime. Oh wait, Bill hugs every girl. Nevermind Ronna.
Ronna somehow I think you just wanted to call me a butthead. Thats alright, takes one to know one
Round
Donald awesome job brother. So proud of your progress and love the determination you displayed today. We were there for you the whole time brother. Well maybe not Bill Abbott, he was still working on his snatch.
Round
Randy awesome job. First bar muscle up. Sure there was a F Bomb after you did it. Congrats.
Round
Alissa quit talking about your snatch so much.
Round
Maybe next time, now go ripen your bananas.
Jon little disappointed that you didn’t bring your A game on snatch day
Round
Shawn sorry to burst your bubble but a quick and short Isabel time isn’t really something to brag about jus sayin. Good thing your wife returns tonight.
Round
Dave H. I am still interested in your color spreadsheet, but I heard there is also a $9.00 dollar handling fee, but still interested in the color copy.
Round
Now on to the WOD.
#155 on strength today.
3:47 RX on Massengill or I mean Isabel. Jeff great job for pushing me today.
Round
Great warmup tonight. Love the snake run. BTW good to see Coach Mary on time today
Round
