Time to WORK: February 2012

Monday, February 27, 2012. This week is no abs. Enjoy it. We will renew our efforts twice as hard next week. We need to schedule group workout so I can introduce new movements like double unders, suitcase deadlifts, and box jumps. I even have ropes and boxes to loan to you. Our current stable of movements is growing stale. Prior to the WOD, do 3 sets of 8 Crossfit pushups. 15 Clean and jerk. 30 squat with weight (either goblet hold or rack hold). Prior to the WOD, do 3 sets of 8 Crossfit pushups. If kett...

From the Robin's(ons) Nest. Editor: Jessica Support Staff: Andy, George, Nina and Mary. Tuesday, December 13, 2011. The Annual Christmas Tree Hunt and "Blizzard". Well: it's that time of year again! And by that I mean for a freak snow storm to hit the Rim Country in AZ while the Robinson's attempt to find the "perfect" Christmas tree. We did manage to get off of Control Road without a tow and we did manage to find what turned out to be one of the best looking trees we've ever had. go figure! I've been tr...

From the Robin's(ons) Nest. Editor: Jessica Support Staff: Andy, George, Nina and Mary. Thursday, May 7, 2009. Well, it feels like summer already - only 102 today! We had a very nice Easter at my brother's house this year. Kids enjoyed an Easter Egg hunt and the rest of us enjoyed a fantastic meal. Mary has started eating solid foods, Nina is in the middle of potty training and George is working on learning to read. All in all we are doing really well and are looking forward to a full, but fun summer.

From the Robin's(ons) Nest. Editor: Jessica Support Staff: Andy, George, Nina and Mary. Monday, January 4, 2010. In a tradition that I am getting way to used to my parents gladly whisked the 3 oldest grandchildren up north to the cabin for 5 days (over New Year's). This year they got enough snow to build a "snow elf," and then mostly just got muddy from what I hear. LOL. Although George did find time to take a couple of long sticks and turn them into "skiis.". Then we actually looked at the calendar and ...

For the following post I forgot to include a picture of Mary's birthday cake from last year, which does mean I hold myself to a higher standard. Oh well. Since I have to make a cake approximately every 3 months around here I've got time to make up for it. :/. My own personal cake wreck! If you can't tell I believe it's a bee hive with swarming (and vomiting) bees. Or ma...

Time to WORK: WODs 01/29/2012
http://firewodwork.blogspot.com/2012/01/wods-01292012.html
Saturday, January 28, 2012. If you're a firebreather, double the squats and/or swings. If swings seem easy or boring, go up in weight. To really get the most out of them, the weight should be such that you can only do 12-15 at a time. EVERY DAY, I need you to text me your WOD times. For each new movement in the WOD, I have linked to a video on the movement. Watch them. With a continuously running clock, perform on the minute:. 1 forward lunge each leg. 7 RFT (rounds for time). 7 bent over rows each hand.

Saturday, January 21, 2012. A couple of key points:. If you're a firebreather, double the squats and/or swings. Non-squatters can leave the squats out of the WOD and reduce the time by 2 minutes. You're not off the hook though; I want you to do 4 solid minutes of squat form work before the WOD each day. This does not mean max reps in 4 minutes, this means a few quality squat movements each minute. The 4 minutes is just a time frame. EVERY DAY, I need you to text me your WOD times. 10 figure 8 to hold.

From the Robin's(ons) Nest. Editor: Jessica Support Staff: Andy, George, Nina and Mary. Tuesday, January 10, 2012. We are so ready to make cookies for Santa, Mom! In general we don't eat very much sugar around here. So, the thought of making a ton of cookies that would at first induce a sugar high followed by sugar coma followed by cranky sugar crash, followed by eventually throwing them away just didn't appeal to me. So, what to do? I still want my kids to remember making cookies with me! With the remai...
