AMRAP in 12:
10 Pistols
10 Pull-ups
Session Notes
Today’s workout (sans the strength session) looks a lot like a couplet we’d encounter in the CrossFit Open. Short, easy to judge and a pretty gnarly combo when done fast. We’re going to be doing a lot of this kind of work in the month to come to prepare for the 5 workouts over 5 weeks that makeup the 2012 CrossFit Games Open competition.
Here’s some relevant links for you to read in preparation for the event:

Schedule Announcement
Wounded Summits Event at CFCM – This Saturday – 11-3pm
We are going to be holding a CrossFit event at our gym this coming Saturday. All are invited. This event is a benefit for a great cause and we hope you’ll attend. More info can be found on the event page.
Note: We will only have one regular class on Saturday at 9am as well as the Bring a Buddy/Open Public workout which takes place at 10am. If you’d like to bring someone to that or you’re interested in just giving our gym a try register HERE.
Mindbody Registration
In the not so distant future we are going to implement a registration and check-in process at the gym. Have to. We are fighting a constant battle between growth and user experience. If we allow our classes to grow beyond our capacity the quality of your experience will decline rapidly. At some point in the not so distant future the 5 & 6pm classes will require a pre-registration as well as a check-in. Soon after, once we get the strategy dialed we’ll move this into 6am, 4pm and the other classes that are growing steadily.
We hope to make this process as smooth as possible. We know change is uncomfortable, but it’s inevitable.
So, what we need of you now, is to REGISTER on Mindbody. This is where you’ll manage your account, including your credit card, user profile and class registration.
It is mandatory that you complete this by the end of the month.
Thanks for helping make the experience here the best it could be.
