    Hey Folks! Killer presses. Mike asked me, “Why are we pressing after a WOD with Handstand push ups in it yesterday??? This is silly!” and then he PR’d his Jerk. TONNES of Jerk PRs today. It was a beautiful thing. If you didn’t PR, don’t fret, you still got a killer workout, stronger shoulders and…

    Hey Folks! Overhead squat practice was fun to watch and you all did great – it is a bit of a paradox staying tight and still up top while squatting down below – but you all crushed it. Potluck this Saturday!  All CF members (and their spouses) are welcome to attend!  Bring some (ideally paleo)…

    Hey Folks! Great work on the WOD today – Remember to stay tight through the core when doing pretty much everything, especially deadlifts!  Some soreness in your low back is acceptable as the muscles responsible for keeping your low back arched get stronger – but a lot of pain is a bad thing (duh) and…

    Hey Folks! Beauty Back Squats today – I feel like it’s been too long since I’ve seen you guys with a barbell on your back… We’ll make sure to be back squatting more frequently from now on. I’m taking orders for sizes for Sweaters (we’re going with zip ups I believe, I’m still working on…
