Monday Workout: Push Press and Some DU’s

Hey there everyone!  I just wanted to say that I am incredibly excited to be taking on this new challenge as your general manager.  A quick note – we are going to be getting back into some strength work as the summer ramps up in addition to the regular daily wod.  Expect to see some things such as higher reps or more unilateral work here and there (think split squats) as we work back into our strength development.  Eventually we’ll be ramping up to some heavier work.  As always, track your progress, record your weights, post to the comments, but the main focus should be on having fun and getting fit!  If you ever have questions or anything just shoot me an email – scott@crossfitcharlottesville.com
