Business brought me back to Naperville, IL. I was here in December during a cold snap. (-30 degrees F) Call me a wuss, but I decided to skip a visit/WOD at that time. This trip however, I visited CrossFit Amplify in Lisle, IL. (www.crossfitamplify.com) It was a great workout with a fun group of folks. Mike Viall is one of the owners and coached the WOD of the day.
After the warm up, we started with squats: sets were 5, 3, 3, 2, 2. (185, 205, 225, 245, 265)
The WOD was fun; it incorporated multiple CrossFit movements, but in a unique way
- Started with 200 meters of Med ball burpee, clean, and toss. (Using a 20 lb wall ball, do a
burpee on the ball, then squat- clean and toss the ball)
- Following the 200 meters, run 1 mile.
Time was 15:49. My down fall was responding to the request for a volunteer to use a 40lb slam ball. (dang thing wouldn’t roll!)
Thanks to Mike and his associates! Make sure to stop by if you get to the Chicago suburbs.
