HAPPY ANNIVERSARY TO US!!! Â Today Industrial Athletics turns 3 years old. Â That’s no April Fools! Â Look where we are now. Â 3 years ago, we started on the 3rd floor of another building with 1800 square feet. Â We are now in a new location with close to 4000 square feet. Â We credit our success to our members who put their faith in us to constantly increase their work capacity across broad times and modal domains. Â We thank you all for making us great.
The WOD for today is a personal favorite of the owner. Â This is a classic CrossFit WOD and one that Matt worshiped when he started CrossFitting. Â He struggled for about 2 years to get his first bar muscle up. Â After achieving his first Muscle Up at a YMCA, he couldn’t wait to try 30 for time. Â Back when he started, impressive times were in the 6 minute range. Â He didn’t come anywhere near that the first time he did this WOD.
