CrossFit East Bay: Test Pilots Needed
This week will mark the start of a one-month cycle focusing on integrating bouldering and CrossFit. As some of you may know CrossFit is "Open-Source Fitness Technology". It is constantly evolving, improving and growing. Part of that is test-piloting new things, some of which turn out to be valuable and some of which go nowhere.
We will be using some ideas from Rob Miller's Affiliate, CrossFit Sunnyvale (scroll down a tad for a pic of Lyn & Tim) and trying some new things.
I will be doing the WODs a day in advance and I could use some training partners to help me try them out. I'll be doing them at the following locations/times, feel free to join me (experienced climbers/CrossFitters only please). We will test and tweak the following:
Today, Monday, 12:45PM GWPC
Run One Mile
Up and down climb four boulder problems touching every hold on the way up and down
Rest 2 minutes
Repeat on a different problem

Cool, I'll connect with you next week to try and schedule it. I did the first one yesterday and it was surprisingly hard and compelling. Very CrossFitt-y, in that I looked at it and went "this should be easy". Um, no!
