NOTE:
It's wet outside today so if you can please wear a separate pair of shoes to workout in so you don't get the gym floor wet today. You'll be doing burpees today so I'm sure you don't want to be dropping to a wet ground.
STANDARDS
"Standards help us identify if we're doing a movement correctly. Standards make sure that, when competing, everyone is competing on a level field. Most importantly, and what I think everyone should take away from this, is that standards help us get better. If you short a rep or miss the range of motion, then I argue that you're not getting better? Everyone has a different goal when it comes to CrossFit, but I think I can safely say that self improvement is what
CrossFit is all about. CrossFit is about honing your strengths and working on your weaknesses.
"Why the hell is he bringing this up?" you might ask. "Karen" is one of those workouts where standards are hard to keep track of. There are so many reps, and the target can seem so far away at times. Think about the standards though. If you're not able to get below parallel on your squat, and you can't hit the target consistently, then scale down. Don't worry about the RX. People love doing workouts RX - Its like a badge of honor on our whiteboard. But sometimes striving for the RX during a workout (if you can't do the movement correctly and consistently) can hurt you more than help. Then I argue that you're not getting better." - Veteran CrossFit 1013 member.
