The other week, coach Kalec had written an article about how to handle stress in your life and how CrossFit can help you achieve that goal and be more efficient in your life.

…how do you learn to suppress your stress and procrastination? I find that nothing works better than the oldest saying in the world: “Practice makes perfect.” I find that working out in intense situations (such as I did when I was diving) helps to handle stress. I discovered CrossFit, a new method of working out using functional movements at high-intensity really helps out with getting things done in life. This allows you to get into that “oh god I don’t wanna do this” situation three to five times a week and teaches you to just buckle down and get it over with.

WOD – July 26, 2010

25 Back Squats (3/4 body weight)
10 Box Jumps (low but QUICK)
20 HSPU
20 Pull Up
80 KB – Swing

Heavy back squats followed immediately by quick box jumps teaches your muscle memory to be quick and agile when they are tired. The handstand pushups and pullups are just to fatigue the arms so people learn to use their hips when they do KB-swings instead of muscling it with their arms ;)

Example: if you use 115# barbell: that’s 86 reps + another 110#
