Great weekend everyone! See you all Monday for Part 2 of our Pull Up Challenge…and a new challenge!
Monday’s WOD:
1-1-1-1-1-1-1 Heavy Snatch!
This is a really awesome workout if you haven’t done it. It doesn’t appear to be much on paper (and who is writing anything on paper anymore anyways?)…but to perform the snatch properly, aka the fastest lift in the world, it takes a large combination of CrossFit’s 10 skill and fitness domains. All of that wrapped up in one explosive and powerful movement. By the end you’re wondering why you’re covered in sweat and ‘all you’ve been doing is single rep lifts’…well if ya don’t know, then now ya know!
From the ground and into the hang …
and extend the hips and start to flip the arms over…
Then get under that bar…
Take it to the bottom of the squat…
And stand it up!
Who can do olympic lifts? 
Everyone…
Even new guy Matt learned to do this on his first day!
Yeah, no matter what we do, it will WORK YOU!!!
See you all Tuesday for something completely different.

Tuesday’s WOD:
5 Rounds for Time.
7x 135/95# Thruster
15x Pull Ups
200 Meter Medicine Ball Run
Post times to comments.
This workout was pretty hard/awesome. Plus, we had an 800 meter medicine ball Indian run warm up…good times. We’re just trying to make sure that we’re not lying when we say ‘You’re Workout is Our Warm Up’!
Yes, it is a warm-up. Yes, it is awesome. Yes, you can do it if you want to!
Then some Med Ball Sprints. Why? Why not!
Working on the bottom of the Over Head Squat…
And onto the Work Out!!!
Great job, Rachel!
Josh said that 135# Thrusters were too light…why not 155#! Yeah, we can accommodate that too!
Keleigh came in 1st place today in the WOD, partly because she completely got after it on the Med Ball Sprints! Great job girl, your hard work and consistency have been paying off!
Tyler partnered with Josh, so he decided to go up and hit the 155# Thruster too. You just don’t have that type off motivation when you’re on your own working out…but in here, anything is possible!
Great job, Simon!
You may ask ‘Why?’ Eventually I’ll ask ‘Why Not’!
The ever growing 5:30 class proved just as fun!
Lenny’s been hitting up the Thrusters a lot lately…and it shows in his improved form and work capacity!
Way to rock it, Padriac!!!
Steven coming out of the bottom of the Thruster…
and Carly finding the top!
New guy Matt did amazing on his first of many, many WOD’s with us!
Dinos rocked the 8pm class tonight. No matter when you drop in, there’s a group of cool people ready to sweat with you!
We just keep going, and going, and going…
Awesome post WOD flop!
And finish up with a little bit of L-Sit Holds…Yeah, it was another Great Night at CrossFit North Hollywood!
If you’ve been watching the site lately and itching to drop us a line but a little nervous…now’s the time!

Recovering while the others are running…
I ended up doing this WOD with everyone, so there aren’t many pictures, except for this awesome Sweat Angel!
Great weekend everyone! See you all Monday for Part 2 of our Pull Up Challenge…and a new challenge!
Monday’s WOD:
1-1-1-1-1-1-1 Heavy Snatch!
This is a really awesome workout if you haven’t done it. It doesn’t appear to be much on paper (and who is writing anything on paper anymore anyways?)…but to perform the snatch properly, aka the fastest lift in the world, it takes a large combination of CrossFit’s 10 skill and fitness domains. All of that wrapped up in one explosive and powerful movement. By the end you’re wondering why you’re covered in sweat and ‘all you’ve been doing is single rep lifts’…well if ya don’t know, then now ya know!
From the ground and into the hang …and extend the hips and start to flip the arms over…
Then get under that bar…Take it to the bottom of the squat…
And stand it up!
Who can do olympic lifts? Everyone…
Even new guy Matt learned to do this on his first day!
Yeah, no matter what we do, it will WORK YOU!!!
See you all Tuesday for something completely different.
Tuesday’s WOD:
5 Rounds for Time.
7x 135/95# Thruster
15x Pull Ups
200 Meter Medicine Ball Run
Post times to comments.
This workout was pretty hard/awesome. Plus, we had an 800 meter medicine ball Indian run warm up…good times. We’re just trying to make sure that we’re not lying when we say ‘You’re Workout is Our Warm Up’!
Yes, it is a warm-up. Yes, it is awesome. Yes, you can do it if you want to!
Then some Med Ball Sprints. Why? Why not!
Working on the bottom of the Over Head Squat…
And onto the Work Out!!!
Great job, Rachel!
Josh said that 135# Thrusters were too light…why not 155#! Yeah, we can accommodate that too!
Keleigh came in 1st place today in the WOD, partly because she completely got after it on the Med Ball Sprints! Great job girl, your hard work and consistency have been paying off!
Tyler partnered with Josh, so he decided to go up and hit the 155# Thruster too. You just don’t have that type off motivation when you’re on your own working out…but in here, anything is possible!
Great job, Simon!
You may ask ‘Why?’ Eventually I’ll ask ‘Why Not’!
The ever growing 5:30 class proved just as fun!
Lenny’s been hitting up the Thrusters a lot lately…and it shows in his improved form and work capacity!
Way to rock it, Padriac!!!
Steven coming out of the bottom of the Thruster…
and Carly finding the top!
New guy Matt did amazing on his first of many, many WOD’s with us!
Dinos rocked the 8pm class tonight. No matter when you drop in, there’s a group of cool people ready to sweat with you!
We just keep going, and going, and going…Awesome post WOD flop!
And finish up with a little bit of L-Sit Holds…Yeah, it was another Great Night at CrossFit North Hollywood!
If you’ve been watching the site lately and itching to drop us a line but a little nervous…now’s the time!

What’s Up CrossFit North Hollywooders (and future CFNHer’s!)?
A couple of quick announcements for you all.
First, and definitely most important…The 2009 CrossFit Games in Aromas, CA are coming up Saturday & Sunday July 11 & 12th.
As you all know our Head Trainer Kris is competing. She is 1 of the top 75 CrossFit women in the world competing for the title of The Fittest Woman on the Planet. In all there are 152 male and female competitors from every corner of the globe. If you’re interested in going, GO! We’re definitely going to be there, so you should too. To buy tickets to this awesome event click on the image:
Secondly, for those of you that are interested in getting your CrossFit Level 1 Certification, there will be one in Huntington Beach, CA, on September 19 & 20. This is definitely the closest one that will come for a long time, and you should know by now they sell out very, very quickly. So at least put your deposit down and reserve your spot!
Thirdly, starting in July we’re adding 2 more classes to the schedule. Both of these times have proved very popular, so we’re gonna give you more of what you like!
Starting Wednesday July 8 we’re adding a Wednesday @ 6pm class.
Starting Thursday July 9 we’re adding a Thursday @ 12:30pm class.
This means that we’ll have a 12:30 class every weekday, and an early evening class every weekday (either 5:30pm or 6pm).
Pretty awesome, huh! And we couldn’t have expanded to this many classes this quickly without all of your help. Thank you for all of your hard work, group encouragement during the workouts, and of course, SWEAT!

Recovering while the others are running…
I ended up doing this WOD with everyone, so there aren’t many pictures, except for this awesome Sweat Angel!
Great weekend everyone! See you all Monday for Part 2 of our Pull Up Challenge…and a new challenge!
Monday’s WOD:
1-1-1-1-1-1-1 Heavy Snatch!
This is a really awesome workout if you haven’t done it. It doesn’t appear to be much on paper (and who is writing anything on paper anymore anyways?)…but to perform the snatch properly, aka the fastest lift in the world, it takes a large combination of CrossFit’s 10 skill and fitness domains. All of that wrapped up in one explosive and powerful movement. By the end you’re wondering why you’re covered in sweat and ‘all you’ve been doing is single rep lifts’…well if ya don’t know, then now ya know!
From the ground and into the hang …and extend the hips and start to flip the arms over…
Then get under that bar…Take it to the bottom of the squat…
And stand it up!
Who can do olympic lifts? Everyone…
Even new guy Matt learned to do this on his first day!
Yeah, no matter what we do, it will WORK YOU!!!
See you all Tuesday for something completely different.
Tuesday’s WOD:
5 Rounds for Time.
7x 135/95# Thruster
15x Pull Ups
200 Meter Medicine Ball Run
Post times to comments.
This workout was pretty hard/awesome. Plus, we had an 800 meter medicine ball Indian run warm up…good times. We’re just trying to make sure that we’re not lying when we say ‘You’re Workout is Our Warm Up’!
Yes, it is a warm-up. Yes, it is awesome. Yes, you can do it if you want to!
Then some Med Ball Sprints. Why? Why not!
Working on the bottom of the Over Head Squat…
And onto the Work Out!!!
Great job, Rachel!
Josh said that 135# Thrusters were too light…why not 155#! Yeah, we can accommodate that too!
Keleigh came in 1st place today in the WOD, partly because she completely got after it on the Med Ball Sprints! Great job girl, your hard work and consistency have been paying off!
Tyler partnered with Josh, so he decided to go up and hit the 155# Thruster too. You just don’t have that type off motivation when you’re on your own working out…but in here, anything is possible!
Great job, Simon!
You may ask ‘Why?’ Eventually I’ll ask ‘Why Not’!
The ever growing 5:30 class proved just as fun!
Lenny’s been hitting up the Thrusters a lot lately…and it shows in his improved form and work capacity!
Way to rock it, Padriac!!!
Steven coming out of the bottom of the Thruster…
and Carly finding the top!
New guy Matt did amazing on his first of many, many WOD’s with us!
Dinos rocked the 8pm class tonight. No matter when you drop in, there’s a group of cool people ready to sweat with you!
We just keep going, and going, and going…Awesome post WOD flop!
And finish up with a little bit of L-Sit Holds…Yeah, it was another Great Night at CrossFit North Hollywood!
If you’ve been watching the site lately and itching to drop us a line but a little nervous…now’s the time!

It’s always the workouts that don’t seem like much…
We did this workout about 2 months ago…and saw some huge improvements in the scores and new PR’s (Personal Records) everywhere.
Measuring your fitness level is an integral part of CrossFit. We’re constantly tracking your progress to make sure you reach your goals…and I think it’s working!
Load, extend, release, recover! The stages of wall ball.
Fantastic!
And a little finisher…another great day of CrossFit!
See ya’ll Tuesday!
And don’t forget our new classes starting the second week of July:
As our family grows, so do our classes…
Wednesday, July 8, 6pm class!
Thursday, July 9, 12:30pm class!
We’re also about to start another Saturday class. Stay tuned for details!
What’s Up CrossFit North Hollywooders (and future CFNHer’s!)?
A couple of quick announcements for you all.
First, and definitely most important…The 2009 CrossFit Games in Aromas, CA are coming up Saturday & Sunday July 11 & 12th.
As you all know our Head Trainer Kris is competing. She is 1 of the top 75 CrossFit women in the world competing for the title of The Fittest Woman on the Planet. In all there are 152 male and female competitors from every corner of the globe. If you’re interested in going, GO! We’re definitely going to be there, so you should too. To buy tickets to this awesome event click on the image:
Secondly, for those of you that are interested in getting your CrossFit Level 1 Certification, there will be one in Huntington Beach, CA, on September 19 & 20. This is definitely the closest one that will come for a long time, and you should know by now they sell out very, very quickly. So at least put your deposit down and reserve your spot!
Thirdly, starting in July we’re adding 2 more classes to the schedule. Both of these times have proved very popular, so we’re gonna give you more of what you like!
Starting Wednesday July 8 we’re adding a Wednesday @ 6pm class.
Starting Thursday July 9 we’re adding a Thursday @ 12:30pm class.
This means that we’ll have a 12:30 class every weekday, and an early evening class every weekday (either 5:30pm or 6pm).
Pretty awesome, huh! And we couldn’t have expanded to this many classes this quickly without all of your help. Thank you for all of your hard work, group encouragement during the workouts, and of course, SWEAT!
If you have questions, either post them to comments, or email us at CrossFitNoHo@gmail.com.

5 Rounds for time.
30x each leg box switch taps
20x each leg weighted box step ups
10x each arm see saw press
Post time to comments or www.crossfitleaderboard.com
This was a pretty cool invention from Kris, switch taps balance on the ball of the foot, step ups balance and press through the heel, stabilize and press…plus…go as fast as you can! Fantastic!
New gal Lucy on the switch taps…
Michelle on the box step ups…
Greg on the see saw press…
Peanuts on the floor!
