CrossFit 864 - "No Whining Zone"

And there were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night. An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. But the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid. I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is the Messiah, the Lord.
-Luke 2:8-11

Who can add to Christmas? The perfect motive is that God so loved the world. The perfect gift is that He gave His only Son. The only requirement is to believe in Him. The reward of faith is that you shall have everlasting life.
-Corrie Ten Boom

Today's WOD's - start at:
9:00a.m./4:15p.m./5:15p.m./6:15p.m.


Complete the following for time: 

"A Frogman's Christmas"

100 Dead Hang Pull-ups
250 Push-ups
500 Sit-ups
Run 3 Miles

This is a good day at BUD/s - a classic frogman PT. As a point of reference in case you think this looks tough, Admiral S. (retired SEAL) will routinely do 200 dead hang pull-ups and 1,000 sit-ups for time. He is 65. Dynamic stretching is distinct from static stretching. Walking lunges, straight leg high kicks, walking lunge with a twists, arm rotations, etc. are all good examples - the goal is to warm up your limbs and muscles using movements similar to the work to be performed.
