Just an FYI

There has been some debate among the group on the form and terminology of some of the Olympic weight lifts that we do in CrossFit. Here is a handy guide from the CrossFit website's FAQ section:

2.15. What's the difference among the clean (and snatch) types?

Squat clean aka Full Clean aka Clean = start from the floor, catch in a full squat.
Hang clean = start from the hang position (above or below the knees), catch in the full squat position.
Power clean = start from the floor, catch in a quarter or half squat position aka the power position.
Hang power clean = start from the hang position above or below the knees, catch in the quarter or half squat.
"Hang" describes where you start.
"Power" describes where you catch.

Impromptu workout

The gym was closed today, so we had to come up with a workout on the fly; one that didn't require any weights. This is what we did:

Chelsea
  • 5 Pull-ups
  • 10 Push-ups
  • 15 Squats
Each min on the min for 30 min
