"LINDA"
For time 10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 reps of the triplet:
Deadlift: 1 1/2 body weight
Bench press: body weight
Clean: 3/4 body weight
Set up three bars and storm through for time - Linda is a daunting workout.
My first attempt took over an hour. SCALE this baby especially if it is your first attempt. There are several ways to scale this workout. One can do just the even reps and or lower the percentages of your body weight used for each lift.
One of the tricks I use is to remind myself that after I complete the round of 8, I am almost half way done.

Based on constantly varied, we have not had the opportunity to complete all of the Hero WODs. To remedy this issue, TitanFit is now instituting Hero Saturday WODs.
To ensure we do not "cherry pick" the WODs we will complete them in the order they first appeared on the CrossFit Main Page.
Tomorrow, therefore, is our first Hero Saturday. We will complete JT...In honor of Petty Officer 1st Class Jeff Taylor, 30, of Little Creek, VA, who was killed in Afghanistan June 2005 - First posted 6 July 2005

Look at that smile. No, Mary is not smiling because Ryan, Doug and Kelin got PR on "Fran", she is smiling because she set a new TitanFit record for "Press" today. Make sure you pat her on the back the next time you see her. Great job Mary!

You don’t have to be a rocket scientist to know that kids’ waistlines are expanding as rapidly as adults’ these days. Just take a look around. With an estimated 33 percent of children overweight or obese, the husky kids who used to be the exception are now becoming the norm — and being big as a kid can translate into big health problems later on.
Medical experts report that overweight kids are heart attacks just waiting to happen. One study from the New England Journal of Medicine found that today’s kids are likely to become adults with heart disease, which translates to more hospitalizations, more medications, more medical
procedures and a shorter life expectancy. Another study reported that if the number of overweight children continues to increase at the current rate, there will be 100,000 additional cases of heart disease by 2035.
Who are the main culprits for childhood obesity? Parents, for one. Carting in boxes of donuts to their little ones’ soccer games, offering sugar-loaded fruit drinks as afterschool snacks and replacing home cooking with deep-fried drive-thrus, parents are teaching kids some fattening life lessons. The average child today consumes 180 more calories a day than their leaner counterparts did in 1989. That can translate to an extra 18 pounds a year.
Caloric catastrophes are only part of the problem though. Thanks to the technology gurus and marketing powers-to-be that target our youth, kids today are more likely to be found tweeting, texting, Wii-ing and channel surfing than running, biking and playing. “Now you can drive through entire neighborhoods where you know there are a lot of young kids there and hardly see any of them out,” said American Heart Association spokesman, Russell Pate in an interview
with CNN. So while kids are more likely to say that a blackberry is a phone vs. a fruit, we can still help them make heart-healthy choices. Once they learn to make them on their own, they may be more likely to turn off the TV and head outside.

As always, SCALE if and when necessary. For some of us that are new to Olympic lifting, high pulls and FS will be good enough. The sub for ring dips is 4/1 bench dips, 3/1 bar dips or 2/1 jumping ring dips.
