Coach Don McCauley will be putting on an Olympic Weightlifting Clinic Thursday August 12th at 4:00pm At CrossFit Cape Cod. There is a sign-up sheet at C3. The cost is 80 dollars. The clinic is Approximately 4 hours and Coach McCauley will focus on the Clean, The Jerk, and The Snatch. This is a rare opportunity and should not be missed!
I received the following in a recent e-mail from him...
I will be bringing Holley Mangold,+75kg American Open champion, International team member, Suzanne Leathers, alternate 2000 Olympic Team, two-time Sr. World Team and Pan-Am team member, Tina Carson, national class lifter, multi-certified CrossFit coach.
Here is some video as well...
Everyone was talking about Duda and the scores he put up this week.(522 Football Gone Bad!?) Before I make the "Who is Duda?" T-shirts check out this video that I pulled from the CF archives and chime in if this is in fact the one and only Duda. WMV MOV

Christy Phillips going over the 12 foot wall at the 2010 CrossFit Games

Choose one or both of the following:
Three rounds for time of:
30 Toes to bar
95 pound Ground to overhead, 21 reps
Three rounds for time of:
Burpee to over a stacked box (4 Plates on top of a 24' box)- throw a sand bag or medicine ball over ahead of you , 5 reps
Rope Climb, 3 ascents
If you choose one, complete all the work as quickly as possible. If you choose both, the first is done after 7 minutes and the second is done after 12 minutes. You have :30 seconds to transition between workouts and your score is as many reps as you complete if you aren't able to finish in the allotted time. The 2 times and transition will total 19:30. If you finish a. in sub seven you rest until it is time for b. at 7 min 30 seconds. If you Finish b. in less than 12 minutes you are done!

P.S. I rip off CrossFit.com so often that I feel I need to give credit for the great photos, WOD ideas, videos, and articles. If you haven't already SUBSCRIBE TO THE CROSSFIT JOURNAL. It's 25$ and it's the best resource on the web for all things fitness. I don't get any money from it- I just truly believe it is an essential resource.

We are having a Lulu Lemon Trunk Show August 13th from 2-6pm
Some Basic Nutrition Tips:
As you have heard before the CrossFit Dietary prescription is- Eat Meat and Vegetables Nuts and Seeds, Some Fruit, Little Starch, No Sugar.
Here are just a couple quick pointers for the day to day of it.
Dairy- If you are trying to lean out try eliminating Dairy for a few weeks and see what happens. Most people find that last ten pounds or bloated feeling will go away if they just stop the milk and cheese.
On the other end of the spectrum-if someone wants to get bigger and stronger-quick-add lots of milk-if you can digest it well. Try this for a month or two and then cut back when you start ripping your jeans.
Post Workout: You noticed that the wording is some fruit. Now is a great time along with some protein for that banana or the apple sauce- even your little starch like sweet potato. The body is hungry and in overdrive to repair itself after you work really hard during the WOD. Instead of effecting insulin these high glycemic carbs are quickly used for recovery by your body within about an hour after your workout. However eliminating fat (nuts and seeds, oil, avocado etc.) is a good idea for a post WOD meal. Fats will slow the quick absorption and blunt the effect you desire. Try this and you may also notice that you will recover faster and reduce soreness as well.

Thank You, Mike McGrail, for sending me this video. He also did the math for us that is mentioned in the video as kilos of sugar:
"for the metric conversion of kg to tablespoons...I converted annual to daily and then into tablespoons consumption was .56 tablespoons of sugar a day...it is now 14 tablespoons."
Very Familiar if you attended the Nutrition Lecture a couple of Mondays ago!
