WOD Guidance
Pick a modification for the double unders that will allow you to finish each set in under a minute when you’re fresh. Dumbbell snatches should be on the lighter side. Break toes to bar into manageable sets.

THE GRINCH— Emphasis on respect for other traditions, as well as a focus on spreading JOY to others in light of those differences, instead of hatred and negativity.
16:01. 21 cal row, 30lb db, knee raises. Had a wee bit of dizziness during the snatches but nothing that didn’t pass after a few seconds. Another few weeks and that should be a thing of the past.

It’s a Wonderful Life, and Elf. Elf mainly because of the Narwhal that sends his best wishes to Buddy as he exits the North Pole “Byeeee Buddy….hope you find your dad.” Get’s me EVERY time.
Samesies. Great scene.

It’s a Wonderful Life. It reminds me of my childhood
Ha!

Qotd: White Christmas- such a classic, you can’t argue with Bing Crosby
16:45 @25# DB
18:00 35#–had to drop to singles last 80 (30 in set 5,50 in set 6)–frustration set in
QOD: Love Actually–amazing cast; gives you the feels–Andrew Lincoln before he was Rick Grimes!
Agreed. So good.
1. Nobody is going to make mention of the Committed Club nicknames?!? Well I appreciate it, unreal stuff. Makes me want to attend class regularly to get a nickname, I won’t though.
2. Nice to see that I can take a 7 week break from Crossfitting and still kick Jill’s ass on my first day back.
3. Ben should stick to the 5:30pm. He’s normally so sweet, then when he’s in a class with me he’s full of smack talk. At least he backed it up by crushing me, it’s OK though, he’s young, I have saved games on Nintendo catrirdges twice as old as him.
WOD: 12:12 Rx
QOTD:
– Almost didn’t go to class tonight so I wouldn’t have to answer a movie QOTD.
– I don’t really have an answer to BEST holiday I’m comfortable with, but if I had to pick I’d probably also go with Love Actually. Seems like it’s become trendy to hate on it in recent years, people will hate on anything. It’s the goat, all the imitations of that style film prove it.
– But Christmas Vacation is the ONLY movie, holiday or otherwise, that I watch every year. I watch it xmas eve before going to bed.
– Even as a kid I thought Rudolph was super tedious to get through. BUT, if the question was best HOLIDAY MOVIE CREW, then hands down it’s the misfits toys. If I want anyone to have my back it’s them. Look at how cool my little gun buddy is:
