Hey Friends! 17.4 has come out!  and it is….. a repeat of the deadlift/wall ball/row/HSPU WOD.  That’s my guess.  I get the feeling it won’t be right, but that’s ok – it’ll still be fun.  Be nice if it wasn’t some crazy rep scheme this time.  I feel like I need Matt Damon to come…

Hey Friends! Another week is flying by (March break too), I’m hoping today was the last super cold day.  It makes it hard to take a baby and dog out for an epic walk.  Maybe it’s lame, but I worry about the little dudes giant cheeks. FYI, Survivor is BACK (as of last week) and…

Hey Friends! Wednesday is coming up!  Hump daaaaaaay! When you get a chance (and it’s posted) check out the new point standings, the challenges, and all the other awesomeness associated with the Intramurals 🙂 Weightlifting club is starting back up not this week, but next tuesday.  Come on out if you want to add some…

Hey Friends! 17.3 is allllll done.  We had so many PR’s so many strangers doing burpees and so many bonus points we don’t even know what to do with them. It’s another awesome week (and also apparently March Break) to get some solid training in.  If you havent’ booked a time to give blood yet, you…

Hey Folks! PR CITY.  You guys have been putting in the hard work, hitting the hard positions and shoring up those weaknesses – and it’s showing with some small PRs (and some not so small PRs) – Kudos to you guys for working hard! 2 more weeks left of the Open, and then we’re planning…

Hey Friends! Friday!  Open WOD 17.3 has been released, and it is… Double unders and pistols (or maybe wall ball).  That’s my guess at least. Looks like we might be into our last cold week of the year (hopefully).  I’m looking forward to spring, and everything coming back to life again.  Spring means the end of…

Hey Friends! Another Open WOD is looming in the distance.  I really hope there aren’t dumbbells.  I’d like to move on to a barbell.  Power Cleans would be nice.  I’m still thinking a max shoulder to overhead is going to show up… maybe that’s wishful thinking. Make sure you’re taking care of your hands folks!…

Hey Friends! Wednesday coming up!  Another normal day of training 😉  That means it’s a great time for more pause squats.  The pause squats are designed to test your positioning and encourage proper form.  Really make an effort to sink DEEP into the squat, so long as you’re still active (so Deniz, Andrea, Kathy, Crystal, and…

Hey Friends! 17.2 is all wrapped up!  Hope you all got your scores in and crushed extreme.  I know at least Steph PR’d her muscle ups with 1 – Congrats Steph – weird how working on strict strength and putting in the time/reps pays off 😉 We’ve got another bonus point situation coming up for this…
