Happy Cinco de Mayo! For those on the Whole30 we suggest some seltzer and lime juice to replace that Margarita?!? But get after that guacamole!
Kidding aside, Monday was an AMAZING day at the Cove. It was great to see so many PR buttons on the Wodify Whiteboard and we are blown away at the dedication and progress of all our athletes. Later this week we will be finishing our deadlift cycle with a 1 RPM test as well.
Today’s WOD is named Wasabi. Why do we name wods? Certain WODs are classic benchmarks to compare ourselves to CrossFitters around the world. But we also want to have some benchmarks specific of the Cove. These help guide our programming to ensure we are improving and expose us to weaknesses amongst our athletes. Why did we name is Wasabi? We’ve been describing some of our recent WODs as “spicy” lately — and we kind of like that term. We think it’s catching!
