Squeeze and Bounce


JT Scott | 08/13/2017 | 6

We’re a week into the new traffic patterns in Union Square, and it has definitely been an adventure. The city continues to experiment with cones and travel lane placement, so please do send your feedback to them at these email addresses. Have you had a hard time getting to the gym? Do you feel unsafe at any of the intersections? Are you concerned about traffic interactions with the bike lanes? Anything else? Let the city know! (You can also copy me on the emails if you’re interested.)

A few gym members have submitted comments and even if no one from the city directly responds to you, they absolutely read them and feel the pressure. Let the city know that CrossFit Somerville isn’t a silent bystander in Union Square!

The Overhead Squats today will be all about stability – starting at the midline and emphasized through your shoulders as you keep that weight stable overhead at the bottom. After all that intense work holding still, we’ll get gymnastic and bouncy in a WOD guaranteed to keep you moving fast!

2-2-2-2-2
* 2 second pause @ bottom

    Str: 155#
    WOD: 222 Rx. May have started too much with the push-ups as I became very tired pretty early on. Pacing yourself is key.
