Last night I went back to Crossfit, this time to register Clarisse for her first adult class.
She did really well. The workout changed sometime during the day to remove the 3 minute rest between rounds, so it essentially became heavy Fran.
She did really well. She did the 5 jerks at 72#. She looked good. She wasn't landing like a ballerina, it was fast and I could hear her feet landing. Much better than before. She was lowing the bar too quickly, before she completely stood it up and I called her on it, but got a scolding from coach Frank.
a) I'm not the coach! and b) he didn't want to worry her about technique on her first day, it was about fitting in, and getting to know the routine and flow of adult classes.
Fair enough.
She settled on women's empty bar (35#) and regular pull ups. After she did the first 21 thrusters unbroken, I thought she'd gone too light.
She started her pull ups with 6 unbroken, coach Isabelle's jaw dropped. "How old is she"? Yeah, that's my14 year old.
The round of 15 hurt more, she broke up the thrusters 11 and 4, and then did the 9 unbroken.
Finished in 9:23.
Proud papa.
