WOD

PUT THE SNOWBLOWER AWAY!!!

For Time:

Shovel your driveway/sidewalk

Emphasis- As much muscle recruitment as possible. Use that *posterior chain as much as posssible.

*Posterior Chain- lower back/erectors, glutes, hams.

We wish everyone a Merry Christmas, safe travel, and good food.

We also want to send a special Christmas wish to the men and women down range, in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Below is one of CrossFit Des Moines’ own, Justin Stover-pumping out some weighted pull-ups down range in Iraq. Thanks Justin
