Any CrossFit crazies out there?
I need some help on today's workout; I can't find the moves in the exercise and demos sections.

Substitutes for Mayo??
Anyone have any good suggestions to replace mayo in foods? I love food with mayo in it...egg salad, for example, but mayo just LOOKS too much like fat for me to eat it anymore, besides it being pretty bad for you anyway. Any advice is much appreciated!!
