6 THINGS YOU SHOULD QUIT DOING TO BE MORE SUCCESSFUL
“We humans (that means me included) often get stuck in a hamster wheel of habit. We do things that aren’t good for us, remain where we shouldn’t and put ourselves through voluntary suffering all in the name of comfort. We don’t know these things are damaging, because it’s normal to us.”—Molly Cain for Forbes.com

Definitely breeding monsters with these WODS lately George. Love it. See you tonight.
Well said Kristen!
So true George! After the WOD on Saturday and Sunday I literally couldn’t lift my arms over my head on Monday, so I took a rest day! And last night my legs were burning- feeling good though today!
See you all tonight 🙂
Just watched an awesome video that Lisa told me about on Youtube to help me with my toes to bar (because I’m sure everyone knows I’m beyond awful at them). It explains them very well and demonstrates an easier method so it’s not so much work for your abs. Now hopefully I can put it into practice, but don’t hold your breath for that one. Here’s the name if you want to check it out. Thanks Lisa!
Youtube: Again faster Micd Toes to Bar
Tiffany I am going to check out that video – i’m at a toes to bar but not without a little step help so I’m hoping I’ll get some insight on how to do it all on my own power. So today was the underwear day – I’m sorry to say I did not go on stage with only my undies, but not because I didn’t want to. The producers changed my “story line” to I don’t like lines from my undies. So I wore pants that showed where the lines were. Then the reveal showed me with the pants on without the lines. I still go to go to hair & makeup and met with the Double Diva’s and got some sexy underwear that makes sure there are no visible lines. It was still fun and I got free stuff!!
Tiffany I am checking out this video also! Thanks!
Beth- I was thinking of you. Sounds like fun and even though you didn’t go out in your underwear KUDOS to you! You are still a brave woman in my eyes! See you soon 🙂

We have posted the video several times on the website…some of you may have seen it. In any event it’s good to review. It’s about 8 minutes long, but definitely worth your time. Jon Gilson of Again Faster is one of our favorite CrossFit coaches!
Beth–It doesn’t matter if the producers changed the plan. It only matters that you went fully prepared to do what they originally said you would have to do. Good job!
That video helped me out tremendously. I still need to work on it, but the mechanics of it make more sense to me after watching it.
