Take a risk!

"There's something liberating about not pretending. Dare to embarrass yourself. Risk." 
-Drew Barrymore

Above: Jeff and TJ go "head to head" in the bottom of the squat hold!  They pushed each other and held for over 3 minutes.  Jade got in on the action with her brand new WODKILLA shirt! Love it!

Today's WOD:
Push Jerk 1-1-1-1-1


Then...
Max reps of Handstand Push-ups
Max Bottom of the Squat hold
Max L-Sit Hold on Parallettes
Max Chin-up Hold

Take a risk and step out of your comfort zone, even if it means embarrassing yourself a little.  Today we had many try a Handstand Hold for the very first time!  It is not comfortable being upside down on your hands, but that didn't stop our athletes from trying.  That to me is the best feeling in the world--when you give something new a try even if it means falling on your butt or head in today's case.  Many athletes today crumbled to the ground on their first attempt, but got up and gave it another shot.  That's the effort I love to see and coach!
