WOD:
Team AMRAP
In teams of 2 complete as many rounds as possible in 30 minutes
3 Clean (115/85)
5 Push Jerks (115/85)
7 Pull-ups
Both team members will use the same barbell. When one team member completes the push jerks and moves on to the pull-ups the other team member may begin with cleans. The score will be the combined number of completed rounds for each team.
Post number of completed rounds to comments.
Dani from CrossFit Tacoma makes a repeat visit. Nice to see you again, we love having visitors!
The Cost of a Paleo Diet
Caroline forwarded us a message from a friend of hers the other day regarding the cost of going Paleo. There is no doubt that increased consumption of fresh meats, vegetables, fruits, nuts and nut concoctions comes with a bit of a heavy price tag. So, if increased grocery cost is not in your budget, what do you do?
The day after this was brought up I happened upon an article written by creator of the Coconut Orange Cake with Coconut Oil Frosting (remember the yummy cake Emily made???) entitled, The Cost of a Nourishing Diet: A Follow Up to Going Grain-Free. Pay particular attention to the graph showing how when we spend less on food, health care costs rise dramatically. We are in a pay now or pay later situtation with food. Understanding that we can’t pull money out of the sky in order to cut future costs, she wrote The Cost of a Nourishing Diet: What is Optimal vs. What is Reality? She breaks down how to have this lifestyle into optimal, reality and compromise. She provides some insights on how to prioritize for your situation.
What things might you be willing to sacrifice in order to afford higher quality food for your family?

Stumbled Upon
Say guys,
Nice work today. Another butt-kicker this morning but loving it!!…it hurts so good. I got a couple of small rips today too, not too bad. Thanks everybody for the support. feeling stronger each and every time………Here comes Paleo!!
P.S. Richard hurry back, I want to share my pain……….
Caroline, I also ripped today on my right hand and developed a blood blister on my left palm. Congrats on joining the (Costco) club!
Summer’s boyfriend Steve joined us for today’s WOD and he and I teamed up and finished with 26 rounds. Awesome WOD! I love the clean and jerk!
Brandi, I know, right?!?! Until I joined Kitsap Crossfit, I never left my house (seriously) much less drove to Silverdale. Sad but true.
How were you not already a Costco member Caroline? That is unbelievable:)
Team Good To The Bone (Emily and Caroline) rocked out 24 rounds. Emily also ROCKED solid kipping pull-ups!!!! No more band for her! Ahhhh snap!!!! For me, I’m really getting pi$$ed with these girlie hands of mine. Another bleeding ripping moment on the bar for me. Hurts like heck and I thought I was going to die when shampoo got in it. Why are my hands so tender?!?!
Love the post today too! In an effort to support our Paleo lifestyle, I left KCF and joined Costco… I left that store with my body weight in meat and nuts.
Also, I agree with the article that states increasing your budget on good food now saves you in health costs later. Since going Paleo, just having Steven off of migraine and heartburn meds is saving us a lot!
Team Bad To The Bone (Hal and Cade) rocket 28 rounds today. Nice work everyone, that was a tough one.
