Mr. Tanneran - "Hey Louden, you think you're overextending yourself on this Shute challenge?"
Louden - "Definitely."
Mr. Tanneran - "You know you have a tendency to do that."
Louden - "Sometimes you got to, remember? This is like one of them times."

First post

My first ever wkout at a CF affiliate. Went to 0600 class at Clear Lake CrossFit, run by Ben Kauffman. 5 others in attendance. Very much enjoyed it, nice break from going it alone. Look fwd to going back for a WOD once every month or two

warm up if I recall correctly
2 rounds
10 pushup
10 situp
10 KBS
10 box jump

also did some of my typical warm up stuff, had a couple of pretty stable hand stands in parking lot prior to the wkout, felt solid

Ben led group through some prep work for the WOD using PVC
Frankenstein squats - never done them before
OVHD squats
various phases of snatch from the high hang

WOD was Randy
75 power snatch for time, 75#
5:21

my first time to do this one if I am not mistaken, felt pretty good, did not sell out completely but pushed pretty hard, very tough on the grip at the end, I did 25 unbroken to start, tried to focus on good triple extension throughout. Ben gave some good pointers on grip position and highlighted importance of getting hips fully open, not pulling too soon with arms
