Waiter carry warm-up in Coach Greg's class on Tuesday.

**Announcements, etc…**

• CrossFit Cadence Kids!!!  Beginning in January, we will (at long last) be launching the Cadence kids program!  And I couldn't be more thrilled to announce that the program is going to be headed up by our very own Michelle Fongson (a.k.a. Jump Rope Michelle)!  In addition to being a CrossFit stud, Michelle is a natural coach, with years of experience teaching youth jump rope and gymnastics.  Could there be a better backround for a CrossFit kids instructor?!?! To start things off, we'll be offering classes for ages 8-12 on MWF 3:30pm to 4:30pm, with hopes of a class for the 13-15 year olds soon to follow.  Due to it's ability to reach such a large audience, registration is going to be run through the Los Gatos Rec Dept., and as soon as it opens I will post the link here.  I've always said, I didn't want to do a kids program until I felt we could really execute it to the highest standard.  Well, that time has come, and I can't wait to share more about it.  So stay tuned for more info soon!  

• There's still a little time and a few spots left to get in on the 6 month pre-pay offer.  That's 6 months for $750, which means you get a month free!  I can only offer a few of these though, and it's first come first serve, so if you're interested, let me know ASAP.  And even if you miss this, we always have the 1 year pre-pay discount available.

CROSSFIT 

S&P cycle: squat - pull - press - pull - OFF

3 rounds for time:

• 1k row
• 10 wall climbs
• 30 box jumps (24/20)
• 200 speed step singles

*for the speed step, go ahead and count every time the rope passes under you as a rep.  However, just so you know… in competitive jump rope, they score speed step by only counting the right foot, mainly because the jump ropers move too fast for a judge to count both feet accurately.  You'll see evidence of this if you happen to workout with Shwin or Michelle today. :)

• 300m Row
