Going, going, gone. Our climbing ropes from Pacific Fibre and Rope failed. If you have purchased a climbing rope from Pacific Fibre and Rope, you need to take the rope down and send it to Pacific Fibre and Rope in care of Ron Goldman. You can see the failure progression in the three ropes. Dave Leys fell and was uninjured from the experience.

The "Woodstock" of the modern era of functional training - the warriors, athletes, and coaches of the November 12th, 13th, and 14th 2004 CrossFit Certification/Seminar.
CrossFit Nation Week 2, by the boys from Vancouver!
Nothing that is worth doing can be achieved in a lifetime; therefore we must be saved by hope. Nothing, which is true or beautiful or good, makes complete sense in any immediate context of history; therefore we must be saved by faith. Nothing we do, however virtuous, can be accomplished alone. Therefore we are saved by love.

Tabata "Bottom to Bottom" Squat
Run 1 mile
Clock starts for run on rising from last squat.
The Tabata Bottom to Bottom Squat is a Tabata Squat but each rep begins at the bottom and ends at the bottom. The turn around at the top is immediate - no pause. The ten-second rest for each interval is also held at the bottom of the squat as opposed to the top. Interestingly, this squat, in contrast to the "normal" Tabata squat, motivates full hip extension. Also, the ten second rests don't seem as short with this protocol!
Post Tabata score and mile time to comments.

Set up before a clock, and every minute on the minute perform 5 pull-ups, 10 push-ups, and 15 squats. Can you continue for thirty minutes? Twenty minutes? How about 10? Post results to comments. If you fall behind the clock keep going for thirty minutes and see how many rounds you can complete.
If you've finished the workout before this time add +1 to each exercise, i.e., 6 pull-ups, 11 push-ups, and 16 squats each minute, and see if you can go the full thirty minutes. We�ve seen +3. Any +4s?
