EVERYONE AND I MEAN EVERYONE SHOULD REGISTER FOR THE OPEN. In the meantime I suggest creating your account now and enter in some of your stats to save yourself some time when registration comes up. You'll create a "CrossFit ID" and password that will allow you to compare your scores on the workouts with everyone around the world.

I hope everyone competed hard and had fun with the tryouts for CrossFit HB's competition team that went on this past week. You all will be a force to be reckoned with!

This upcoming Games season will be one of the best ever. Keep looking out for those commercials! ...

Keep improving.

Below are some pictures from last Saturday's competition against CrossFit Signal Hill! From what I've read on Facebook, it seemed like a great day! I hope those of you who competeted took a nice long rest day full of stretching and icing!

No wonder he won the 2011 Reebok CrossFit Games. 

During regionals, Rich Froning competed in the team competition and decided that after WOD #4 (4 people complete 250 pull ups, 250 KB Swings, 250 Double Unders, 250 Overhead Squats) he wanted to do King Kong. Let's just say that again. "In between competing in the team events, Rich worked out". The guy is unbelievable.

King Kong is 3 rounds for time of 1 deadlift at 450lbs, 2 muscle ups, 3 cleans at 250lbs, and 4 handstand push ups. Even more impressive is that Froning flew through the workout and finished it in sub 3 minutes.

Good luck to Team CrossFit HB in the competition this Saturday against CrossFit Signal Hill! Even if you're not competing, show your support for HB and cheer on your peers!
