Today I visited The Box Tel Aviv, an awesome CrossFit gym here in Tel Aviv where I’m staying with some old friends. Met a great international group of crossfitters there, and was really impressed with the facility and coaches. The trainer running the WOD I joined was really impressive. He clearly came from a lifting background, as was obvious in the way he taught the clean and split jerk. He even helped me polish my jerk form by encouraging me to hold the bar higher above my collar bone with my elbows out more. It really helped.
WOD (in partners):
6 rds each, alternating:
5 deads (30kg)
5 hang cleans (30kg)
5 split jerks (30kg)*
20 double unders
*Begin your next round once your partner starts the double unders
Score: ~14 min with partner
Snatch practice on my own.
It was also UNBELIEVABLY hot! About 35 C, and 70+% humidity. I’ve never felt so overheated in my life. I suppose that’s a great training condition, though I didn’t stop sweating for about 2 hours after the workout. Overall though, great time making some new friends! Toda Mike and Oren!
