Gotta pool? I hate swimming, but it's easy on the joints. If only it didn't involve water, I'm sure I'd be all over it myself.

I am waiting on that muscle up video. I don't know why that's the movement I want so badly. Gotta be something I guess.

Sad to see Stephen Lewis Romer has left the site, and I don't think he's on Facebook. :( Maybe he'll come back.

John, Good ideas. I'll have to put some of those together.

Diane, Thought of the pool. Although we will probably be leaving the Globo that has one for a new Globo practically right across the street and part of the local Park District. I actually have a WOD that is something like 50yd swim + 20 pushups 10x for time.

Been busy lately. Weather here has been intersting. First the snow, then freezing rain. Lots of early mornings. And I managed to over stress the abs again which has caused be to not do anything for a bit. At least it's not as bad as before so I guess it is slowly healing? Sounds like everyone is doing great! Later dudes and dudettes.

Didnt Stephen Lampi start a new job?

Re: Over 50 Crossfitters Sign In
 

Stephen L. had a fall, as I recall. Wonder if he needed more repair than you'd think from a slip?

did the 091216 today: 1RFT of 21,18,15,12,9,6, and 3 of Pull UPs and Handstand Push ups. did these with my foot over a barbell at a few inches above my chest and pull up were in neutral or parallel position. Finished in 14:44.

Working on an exit strategy from physical therapy. Warm up include working the body at different planes, more rotation in some tight or constrict parts of my back and shoulders. I think that this work will give me a better chance of doing some things better in crossfit and others either modified or skipped entirely.

Re: Over 50 Crossfitters Sign In
 

Looks like we are the walking wounded on this board. Being over 50 sometimes catches up to us.

I've been out for a week with a bad cold and bursitis. I just did a couple of push ups and sit ups today. I will get back tomorrow. Sort of ease back in to it.

John good to see you are making progress!!!
