Open Qualifier WODs will be held on Wednesday evenings at 7 pm and again on Saturdays at 9am throughout the competition. You can still register for the Open here. The absolute deadline for registration as well as completion of WOD #1 is Sunday Feb 26th. (You must perform the WOD in front of an approved trainer – let us know if you need an alternate date.)

We are proud to announce a potential partnership with Borden Farms. We need to have 10 families sign up (online) for the Veggie CSA and request in the remarks section to make CrossFit Agoge your drop off point, then select Montrose Host Home in the checklist below.

Workout of the Day

Julie B displaying beautiful triple extension.

Here is an interesting little blurb that was in the news yesterday. We can all levy armchair judgement against this parent, however most of us have “been there” at some point. What’s the right thing to do in a situation like this? Please discuss in comments.

Workout of the Day

MWOD
Paleo Chair- 10 Minutes

WOD
Tabata of:
Medicine Ball Clean
Push Ups
Toes To Bar
Kettle Bell Swing

A tabata is 20 seconds of work and 10 seconds of rest for a total of 4 minutes. You will have 1 minute to rest and count score between exercises. Score is an aggregate count of each exercise.

  1. If they watched a video on how mcnuggets were made it would gross them all out. (I think it was on Discovery Channel “How its Made). I have not been able to eat one in a very long time, not even store bought. nasty.

    And has somebody been holding a gun to the mum’s head forcing her to buy chicken nuggets?

  2. Who is the parent here! Mum took the easy way out. Instead of taking the time to prepare fresh food, it was easier to take frozen crap out of the freezer throw it in the microwave and not have to teach her child to try different food.

  4. I remeber being a little kid and crying over having to eat broccoli but my mom still forced me to eat it…“just three more bites”. Who’s telling who what to do in this situation? In the end the mom is the parent and she needs to be the boss.

  5. Wow. Well I guess key word phrase is (mom gave up) so of course there is going to be judgement. But also how come doctors haven’t advised and educated this mom and child in her earlier childhood years about the dangers of doing this. Hmmmmm…

  6. Maybe she was hypnotized into an inordinate craving for chicken by an evil, immensely wealthy doctor as part of his biochemical terror plot to poison England’s food supply, who will be be stopped at the last minute by James Bond, 007. (See Ian Fleming’s “On Her Majesty’s Secret Service). But seriously – how about, Mum refuses to feed her the nuggets? Eventually the kid would be hungry enough to eat the other foodstuffs put in front of her. A lot to read between the lines in this story.

  7. Since my oldest was 4 or 5 she has been on a rant against McDonald’s (and it’s hilarious), pointing out how ‘they advertise all white meat chicken but don’t tell you it’s FRIED’ and put ‘apples in happy meals with caramel’ which is ‘pure sugar’, not to mention that they have playlands so parents will bring kids and ‘assume the food is healthy’.

    Sometimes I whisper ‘McDonalds’ to someone just so she can overhear and set off on her rant. And the best part is that I didn’t even do anything to encourage this activism, she came up with this one all on her own! The quotation marks indicate her words.
