#CFG10: Annie's First Muscle up
#CFG10: Flashing back to the time when then 19-year-old Annie Thorisdottir showed up to the 2009 CrossFit Games with all of the work capacity but very few technical skills.During the weekend, Thorisdottir learned how to do GHD sit-ups, parallette handstand push-ups and double-unders. In the final event, she got her very first muscle-up while the Aromas crowd roared.

ANNIE SNATCHING AFTER BEING TAUGHT HOW TO DO THE EXERCISE DURING THE WARM UP
Prior to the competition, Annie had never snatched before, so she had to learn the exercise in order to compete. It shows how far The CrossFit Games has come in the last few years!
