Box Jump!
Really pleased with this. Didn’t think about it, just did it. Sure there’s a lesson there somewhere.
What the video doesn’t show is the two previous attempts at this height and all the support and encouragement I got to get straight back in front of the box and to try again. I wouldn’t have done it, or at least I wouldn’t have got straight back on to try again. Of course the cheering at the end is good too. It’s one of the, many, things I like about Crossfit. Everyone is behind you pushing you to work that little bit harder, to lift a slightly heavier weight, to get better.
