Congrats to Twiggy our Romanian Olympian

Big shout out to Andra aka Twiggy who competed in skier cross this morning up at Cypress. Andra worked so hard to be able to get herself ready to compete today and we are all so proud of her. For those of you who missed it this morning she was well on her way to qualifying for the quarterfinals when she got unlucky off the last jump and took a nasty spill. She has broken a bone in her leg but the injury apparently is less severe than it easily could have been. Congrats Twiggy on all your success and the whole CrossFit Lions crew is pulling for you.

Reminder that the afternoon/evening classes tomorrow are canceled due to the Canada Russian Hockey game that starts at 4:30pm. Hope to see many of you in the morning. If not you can redo this workout on Thursday. 

A. AMRAP sets of 5 unbroken bench press - 150#/90# in 3:00

B. AMRAP sets of 5 hang power cleans 115/75 in 3:00
rest EXACTLY 2 minutes
C. AMRAP Sets of 15 unbroken back extensions in 3:00

  2. Hey guys, thanks so much for the support!!! I miss each and every one of you! Unfortunately it will be a little while before I come back to the gym. I crashed in my qualifying run at the Olympics which really sucks because I would have secured a top 20 spot easily. Instead I broke my tibia plateau off the last jump (imagine falling from a 2 story building) which required surgery with a metal plate and 6 screw insertion in the knee. It'll be about 5 months till I'm back to normal and after that I'll be back in the den getting strong :)I'm in good spirits thought and super stoked to get back to work and kill it at 2014!!

    See you all soon!
