Rope Burn

"In each of us are places where we have never gone. Only by pressing the limits do you ever find them."
-Joyce Brothers


Above: ...because what if one day life forces you to climb up a rope?

Today's WOD:
3 rounds for time:
2 Rope Ascents (19 feet)
20 Dumbbell Push Press (40/25 lbs.)

Today's WOD brings Coach Cheyne's favorite quote to mind, by St. Francis of Assisi: "Start by doing what is necessary, then what is possible, and suddenly you are doing the impossible."  When athletes entered the box today and read the WOD board, many were worried they wouldn't be able to do the workout.  However, after a few pointers and rope climbing technique tips, they were all on their way to touching that beam!  Great work, today! 

Reminder for those who are registered for the CrossFit Games Open:  email me (elyse@808crossfit.com) the class time you plan on attending this Friday!
