Hope she's wearing a wrist guard !!
More snatches and topless women...
More topless women. Very classy, crossfit.
Nice! Looks like government housing--pretty close quarters...watch those nosy neighbors! Would love to see Security Forces roll by and catch a glimpse of this........!
@ Post #3...Topless women...where? I only see a womans back. Who knows what she does or doesn't have on in the front?
Is Archery in the 2012 Games?
Half naked women training to kill animals, this should be epic!
How is that not classy? #1 a womens body is a thing of beauty and she has clearly spent time working on it so she's confidently posng while drawing a bow with an 80-100 lbs draw and is proud of it. #2 This picture probably inspires women to work harder just like when you see a picture of some ripped guy doing some insane lift or skill. Not to mention #3 there is nothing showing and if there was it would be on you to either respect the photo and the work she put into maintaining her body or look at it with lust and disrespect. So whoever is in this picture keep working hard, and good look shooting deer. Crossfit keep the pics of beautiful, confident, in shape women coming. It's very motivating!
Interesting compound bow design with the curved rocker arms, I have never seen before--what make and model is this?
This seems pretty Paleo to me... I like it!
If all you negative posters look at this and only see a "topless women" than you did not read the caption and/or understand the accomplishment. So that's your fault not crossfits. Congrats dave and mi sun!
P.s- bring on the snatches!
Correction 45lb draw. Totally thought that was 9. -losing haha
That's a good way to lose a nipple.
@ #4
Does kinda look like Andersen Housing. Take it from one, Security Forces would not care at all!
archery and nudity...two things that have NOTHING to do with fitness...why crossfit, WHY???
True story, CrossFit always has been about being able to accomplish any and all tasks. Great job Mr & Mrs Marias!
Any chance a hero WOD can be made in memory of Steve Jobs?
that bow is an oneida. not sure of the model, not many of them around anymore. they shoot more like a recurve than a modern compound. i add target shooting into my workouts. add 12 shots between rounds of fran and try to focus. it makes you better
I was thinking the other day, I bet they will have archery at he games next year.
crossfit = preparation for life
life = possible zombie apocalypse
since the best way to kill a zombie is an arrow to the face, i would say this picture (through impecable deductive logic) is SO crossfit
also accuracy, balance blah blah 10 gps
(sigh)
I wasn't going to comment.... but, really?
Archery & nudity have nothing to do with fitness?
Nice pic. Nice Back. Nice Bow.
Crazy workout coming up! :)
Her elbows are supposed to be aligned! WTF! :)
That folks is an Oneida bow, I haven't seen one like that for a long time. My cousin still hunts with his from high school going on 25 years!
Topless women's archery, is this a new discipline for the London 2012 Olympics?..if not, it should be!..Kudo's on her for turning her body into a beautiful work of art and a model of functionality...
I wish our culture wasn't so f'd up about nudity, especially boobs. If boobs are on a wall at a museum - it's a piece of art (for most). A man can walk around without his shirt off - no big deal (depending on his cup-size apparently). Shirtless prepubescent girls run around without a care of what's being exposed. Seriously, what's it going to take for people to relax about topless women?
OMG! Lets act like immature children at the sight of a bare back. Isn't the point of CF to sculpt an amazing body and increase your physical health so that you can feel better about yourself and function better? Apparently some of you have never shot a bow, b/c it does in fact take some level of fitness to use it well. Also I assume those of you complaining never got to beaches, watch movies with any sort of nudity, and most certainly have never slept with anyone...after all that might just send you over the top...sigh
Anyways, congrats on achieving a goal, keep up the good work, and keep posting these types of pics and stories CF.com
#21 though Jobs was a very inspirational figure, was he a crosfitter?
It's sad that many geeks and other fellows in the IT fields totally disregard their bodies and end up overweight, ill or worse. I've been divulging some crossfit journal articles to many of my colleagues. I know that the results-based rigour with which fitness, diet and their relationship with health is treated did entice the analytical nerd in me and has made a profound impact on my own habits.
Don't take this comment the wrong way, though. Some things are indeed out of anyone's control. RIP.
ONEIDA just started creating bows again....expensive but if you don't want to shoot a crossbow then buy the oneida. Extremely easy draw at heavier weights. Awesome crossfit helped achieve your goals!!!
I think people are thinking of creative ways to show a nude (sounds classier than naked) back just to get a rise out of people. I'm waiting for some topless bacon frying. I like the pics not from a lewd standpoint but almost from admiring a work of art. That the subject worked very hard to achieve that look.
Crossfit is making the world a more beautiful place:) Xfit is also, redefining sexy.
To me, what is attractive now is a powerful, energetic, fit and functional woman..(a woman who is committed to crossfit(for ex. my wife)) instead of a weak, too thin, helpless (model type) woman.
Examples like Mi Sun celebrate life and the joy of a being healthy and fit. Inspirational.
On the video Austin goes thruthe different positions for the snatch. On the hang position he starts at high hang, just curious if that is were the wod is meant to start. I have always been under the impression that the hang position was at or just below the knees. I could be wrong I don't have a very long back ground with Olympic lifts and startin points. If anyone has input it would be appreciated.
Does anyone know/care to elaborate about the difference between a hang squat snatch and a mid-thigh squat snatch?
I'd really appreciate any guidance you guys/girls might have . . .
Thanks!
Nice Back!!! The hard work definitely payed off, and congrats on being able to hunt and getting fit.
rest day in my 2:1 program...
I think it's a great pic! And it has lots to do with Crossfit... Just think about it for a minute, we all have lots of goals in life that don't have anything do to with Crossfit, yet there are many aspects of Crossfit that help us reach these goals.
I think its a beautiful and inspiring shot of a strong and fit woman who is proud of her strength, her body and reaching her goal with the help of Crossfit.
I wish there were more women out there who were this comfortable in their own skin! Gratz to you Mi Sun!
Dan, it was signed by Dave, but the caption is talking about his wife being able to pull a bow. Could be a little more obvious, but then we would have a lot more haters on here. Just saying
I hope she doesn't do all of those things with you while topless.
Call me a hater, but I'm wondering how every man's wife, if he had one, would feel knowing he was ogling the chic in the picture, particularly if she was not a ripped up crossfit gal...just sayin
Red Raider,
Thanks for the input and encouragement from my questions on 10/4.
nice i cant get enough of those topless woman
OMG here we go again with the haters. Crossfit, keep these MOTIVATIONAL pics coming - my wife uses them to spur herself ever onwards in the sport of fitness
Naked cf pix have jumped the shark
I live in Guam as well and my question is...why are you in your back yard, in base housing, topless?
OMG, I was totally going to log on and post a "jumped the shark" comment about the photo, but Kaleb beat me to it. LOL!! I love nude chicks, believe me, I do. But seriously, its passing silly around here. HQ thinks they're avante garde, people send in their photos because they want everyone to look at them and think they're hot, then people who take themselves way too seriously put up posts blasting "all the haters" when there are basically no posts from any haters. Its like a tired sitcom. Think of something new, please.
Does it not say - post load and time to comments?? I am amazed how the picture has had more comments than the WOD posted!!!
38.41 @ 50kgs, 55kgs, 60kgs. Done in a Globo Gym so no dropping weights and having to skip over a barrier to the treadmill!! Nice WOD!
@ 33
So all the super hot girls like Scarlett JohansSon aren't hot because they don't do CrossFit. Come on people!
This woman has a nice body and has every right to show whatever she wants. I'm not complaining ;)
Let's grow up people, it's just a nude back!
Oh my, a nude back. Let the comments fly. Please congratulate your wife on her fitness accomplishments. I can't say as though I understand why she posed this way for the pic, however it is not my place to judge, nor is it anyon else's. If you don't like it, or it offends you, don't look at it. Happy lifting.
Never and I mean never fry bacon naked.
Austin Malleolo needs a tan.
If this picture was taken in base housing and it is indeed of an actual woman, I can almost guarantee you there is a grainy frontside photo floating around somewhere.
SETTLE DOWN....its hunting season. I'm surprised no one noticed the form problem. She needs to lock that arm out or her groups are going to be all over the place.
wow look at the grass, how do they keep that lawn looking so nice! what's your secret? how can i get my yard up to this level? can i a picture of my yard and send it in after i work really hard at it? is it okay if there's people in way of the shot (i mean as long as you can see the grass around them)?
...next time have her wear a piston in a hip holster, then the busybodies and uberliberals will be able to whine, complain, and generally freak out all in one place...
If you are new to the snatch, don't try this workout with any kind of significant load. Trying to learn or to improve your snatch skills under duress is probably unwise. For experienced lifters like Austin and Spencer however...go heavy and get some.
For the newbies (or horrible snatchers like me), stick with an empty barbell or even a PVC pipe, focusing on rock solid form. Don't worry, it'll still be a good workout!
Just my two cents.
23:05 with 65/70/75. Still a little sore from the lunges.
Did the following workout yesterday - resting today.
4 rounds:
Run 400
10 pullups
20 pushups
15:16
@Kyle (comment 34)- "hang position" could refer to a few different positions where the barbell starts above the floor. Here, however it appears to indicate a hang position beginning above the mid-thigh position.
Like you said, hang position can indicate an area somewhere between mid-thigh and above the knees. But this isn't set in stone.
Similarly, mid-thigh position can occur from just above the knees all the way up to middle between the hip and knee.
Austin and Spence started each new set of snatches at a lower position.But really, there is no wrong way to eat a reese's.
just curious, what's the difference from a hang snatch and snatch from mid thigh? Aren't that basically the same thing, or is a hang snatch closer to the hip pocket?
m/28/206
Damn head cold kept slowin' me down to clear my nose...
115/115/115
Fingers still ripped from rope climbs on saturday -
SWOD: heavy 5 back squat: 265# felt weak
DWOD: runs as RX on treadmill at 11, had to slow down after 1.5 laps on last run
sub for snatches: pocket gymnast's kipping headstand press-out progression, kick straight back for first set, up to wall second set, straight up/press out for last set. Got 5-6 good headstand press-outs.
c'mon crossfit there's plenty of half naked and full naked women on the internet with some showing and all showing.
If I want that I can go get that elsewhere.
Is crossfit about staying fit or about crooning at a topless woman sexifying a workout/physical activity?
Stay classy.
Thanks for sharing! I think that it is awesome that your wife can now accomplish this and be with you when you go hunting. She should be proud of her body, and I hope this is motivation for other women to get strong and lean so they too can be with their friends/husband/fiance etc and do the things that they otherwise couldn't do because of Crossfit.

RX'ed in 20:20 @ 75/80/85.
Hang snatch = from pockets area to your hip
Mid thigh = above the knee but below pockets
During a full snatch you should hit each section before completing the movement.
This WOD is designed to teach athletes to hit each section and understand the proper tech needed to perform a proper snatch as opposed to just ripping it from the floor. See the Burgner warm up for more clarification
M/51/6'3"/168

ESPN the Magazine's "the body issue" is coming out soon for all the haters!
Great pic~ just shows how well CrossFitting can sculpt an amazing body & its great she's trying new sport.. 1 thing CrossFit encourages!!! Well Done
20:33, only used 95lbs. Did hang squat clean/thruster, mid-thigh sq. clean/thruster, sq. clean/thruster instead of snatch due to shoulder.
3rd-time beginner cross-fitter... former D1 and current professional lacrosse player...
65/75/90
17:47... should I have done more weight? workouts have been punishing....
Arm is still feeling a bit tweaky and snatching seems to aggravate it so I am laying off the snatch for a while... instead I did 20RM back squat (275#) followed by 200 m weighted walking lunges, broad jumps and running.

I see the landscape has improved since I was at Big Navy in Guam 17 years ago!
I woke up with thoughts of cheating myself and the WOD. I came to the site as I plan to do every morning and this picture inspired me.
I'm always amazed how allot of people just drop the bar from full extension. I don't have the luxury of doing that since I am working out with metal plates in my garage and don't want to start cracking the concrete. I wonder how much that limits my strength progression in that I not only have to perform the movement, but also have to control the bar back down to waist level to place it back on the ground as to not crack my garage floor. Could I do 20 more lbs if all I had to do was drop the bar?
Just talking out loud.
Morning 1.5+ mile run
afternoon breakdown
Row 500 meters in 1:45
I measured wrong so my 800 meters was actually 1000 meters. So a few extra meters between friends.

800's on cross-country course behind the barn on an absolutely beautiful fall day in upstate NY!
True story, CrossFit always has been about being able to accomplish any and all tasks. Great job Mr & Mrs Marias!
Seriously? This is hilarious. It's like it's turned into a pissing contest of these half naked women doing a staged pull-up, or a handstand on a beach, or shooting an arrow or peeing in the woods...
What is so spectacular or amazing or different than the other millions of women on this earth... This is not art, it is not erotic and it is certainly not a statement (because that has already been made) and has zero significance.
Seriously - sending in a pic of your wife/gf/mother/sister topless going through the frickin drive through would have more impact.
I'm all for women being proud of their body and hard work, and I love naked women as much as the next guy, but it is more artistic/erotic/powerful/relevant if you send in a pic of your girl sweating through a workout in her short-shorts/lulu's.
Sorry for the rant but this is getting absurd.
135-155-175. Raining so rowed1000 meters for 3 rounds. 40:08. Slow and heavy for me really focused on technique today. Getting ready for level 1 cert. This weekend at cross fit Santa Clara.

This one was a real breather. Runs done upstairs on treadmill at 8.5, 8, 8.
She needs to loosen her grip a little;)
Equal opportunity, eventually. On the other hand, a little more to the imagination is never a good thing.

M/ 37/ 134 lbs/ 5'-6"
I am still nursing a nagging back pull so I did a different workout last night. I also had to workout in a different gym where it's actually hard to find enough space to do larger movements..
I did a 7 minute ladder of 95 lb thruster & 55 lb dumbell kettelbell swing (full height)
1 + 1, then 2 + 2, 3 + 3....
I did 9 swings plus 5 thrusters.
This was a lot more taxing than I thought.. I took about 5 minutes off and then did another wiht 10 reps all out. I did that set it about 45 seconds.
After a few minutes rest and putting stuff away, I did another ladder of 30 lb dumbell hang squat clean followed by half the reps in HSPU
I did 4 + 2, 8 + 4, 12 + 6
Good workout.. my shouders were already a littl bit tired so the HSPUs were tough for the last 3.
Then I did max D.U. in 1 minute (114) Last time I did 2 minutes I got 198, so I want to obviously break 200 in 2 minutes and I want to go for 140 in 1 minute next time.
Back is still not feeling good and I hope a couple days off will help. I am going to try to get more rest this weekend, take a few long hot soaks and let it heal.

-She needs to contract her back muscles a bit more. Hard to tell where the hand is with the long hair, but she may also need to turn her head a little more and get that release hand properly anchored to her jaw bone (crotch of the thumb and index finger to the back of the jaw bone, directly below the ear).
Other then that, looks good. Happy hunting!

DNF - Did Not Finish
Made it to #8 on the last round of 15 snatches, lost it coming up, and dropped the bar on my shin as I fell back. I almost thought I broke it.
Was around 35min at the time of the injury. Snatches at 115#, 125#, and 135#.

still nowhere near confident on the snatch so stayed at 20kg throughout.
The Plato quote refers to dice rather than the active play usually visualized with the saying. Its origin doesn't appear 2,350 years old; the earliest citation seems to be 1907, by Richard Lindgard: "If you would read a man’s Disposition, see him Game; you will then learn more of him in one hour, than in seven Years Conversation, and little Wagers will try him as soon as great Stakes, for then he is off his Guard."
How you gonna change the picture?
She's even better though. But shirted, so...
Why did CF HQ change the photo? Kinda makes all the posts seem a bit awkward?
Back filling for a record ...
I had some shoulder pain, so I went with squats instead of snatches.

Not bad overall. Felt like good hip ext & floating arms. Hips fatigued on full snatches. Maybe lumbar not tight enough?

Next time goal will be to beat time with ten pounds more.
