Once a year we come together as a community to raise money and awareness for Breast Cancer.  This event is carried out in different ways in CrossFit communities all over the world.  Each year Thermal has been a part of this event and raised thousands of dollars for this great cause.  We’re gearing up this year for our biggest event ever and we’d love for you to be a part of it.  I set Thermal’s goal at a meek $500, but I know we’ll crush that.  If you’re able, please get involved and join us for an amazing workout and event. Please clear your calendar for 10/28 at 9:00am and come to the gym for the infamous “Helen Meets Grace” WOD. Help us reach our goal by making a donation to our team! We’re raising funds so that Barbells for Boobs can give people the Right to Know if they’re...

  For strength today we’e going to work on some relatively heavy barbell cycling. Complete exactly 4 working sets of 5 hang power cleans recording the heaviest set. Focus on pulling under the bar and driving lower with each set. Hook grip is an absolute must today. For conditioning, you’ll be working against a 3 minute clock. Sprint 200 meters, come in and hit 10 pull-ups. Once the pull-ups are done, go immediately to wall balls and accumulate as many as possible in the remaining time. Rest two minutes each cycle and complete a total of 4 rounds.

Lets have some fun with this “sandwich” style chipper today. A couple of rules to pay by today guys, take a look. *Athletes must rotate every 10/8 calories on the rower. ** For Burpees over the bar, athletes must trade off reps 1:1. Aka, switch for each rep, you do one I do one. Dead lifts, CJ and double unders may be broken up anyway you like, so long as only one athlete works at a time.
