Top 5

As we've seen from our past few posts, it's time to get our ass back on track- eating healthy and WODing hard core. Like the rest of you, I have definitely noticed my terrible Thanksgiving diet taking a toll on my CrossFit workouts. I'm a bit more sluggish than usual and can't lift as efficiently and as heavy than I usually do. It's crazy how a few bad meals can greatly affect your workouts!
So as I started to plan my week with more healthier meals and a more consistent schedule, I started to get excited and think about all of my favorite CrossFit WODs and lifts that I am eager to improve. Then I also started to think about the workouts and movements that I'm not a fan of but would like to improve as well. As the new year approaches, I hope to keep improving in both of these categories (favorite and least favorites).
What are your top 5 favorite CrossFit WODs and/or lifts and/or skill? What are your top 5 least favorite CrossFit WODs, lifts, or skill? Are you ready to get back at it and kick ass on these top 5? I sure am!

My top 5 favorite:
1. Cindy
2. Power Cleans
3. KB swings
4. squats (air, front or back)
5. kipping pull ups

Least favorite:
1. Burpees
2. wall balls
3. anything from a hang position (hang cleans, hang snatch, etc.)
4. overhead squats
5. push press
