Day 1 with benchmark WOD "Diane"

"How to be more ful-filled is not a mystery. Exercise regularly. Face, rather than avoid, your problems. Help others. Have goals that matter to you. Love and be loved. Accept yourself."


Top: Noon class rips through their Deadlifts. 
Below: The Handstand Push-ups (HSPU) in a workout like "Diane" can be modified for anyone.  Using a box under the feet/legs to simulate the vertical motion or placing AbMats under the head to lessen the depth are both common modifications.

Today was our first day of classes at CrossFit 808 and everyone did an amazing job! Whether it was your first CrossFit experience or your 100th, everyone had fun, worked hard and put up some awesome times for benchmark Girl WOD "Diane".  Great job to everyone--coaches and athletes--for making our first day a huge success!

From N Nimitz Hwy, turn left/right (depending on which direction you're coming from) at Puuhale Road.  Go down until you see a BLUE WAREHOUSE COMPLEX on your RIGHT (from the road you’ll see a SIGN that reads: The Cabinet & Stone Factory).
