A lot is going on in and around the gym these days. For one, the new round of strength classes starts this week. We also have a pull up seminar on the 12th. The performance summit this Saturday. Stay tuned for more events as we love nothing more than hanging out with all of you and providing more and more opportunities.
I need to continue to work on the snatch and become more efficient. It's intimidating knowing what comes after Isabel, but it wasn't too bad...8min goes pretty quick
Full house at 6AM! Great job everyone!!
About the same as my time with the same weight in Aug for Isabel. Need to work on my form as I think I have the strength for Rx'd. Goal is to do it Rx'd Next time.
B
on the minute pullups for 15 minutes:
Made it through 13 minutes; missed in minute 14 so did 14 and 15 burpees to finish it out. I started w/ strict pullups through first 5 minutes and broke pullups up beginning in minute 7.
Finished with 2 300 yd shuttles; first one went ok; second one felt like it took everything in me just to get my legs going (hamstrings, not quads). Disappointed in this as I felt well rested, muscles weren't sore, etc.
SDHP/BJ = 3.5 rds + 1 BJ
Nice, hard couplet.
3:34 Rx'd
Missed the board by 6 damn seconds! Felt really good doing this this morning. For anyone later today looking of ideas, I found a good pace doing just one at a time, dropping it, and setting back up quickly. My grip or technique probably wasn't the best every rep but it got the job done.
2 rds + 20 SDHP
Kind of disappointing result in this one. Arches (or lack thereof) of my feet started hurting really bad and it was tough to keep going.
Good work 5AM!!

50 Double unders
3 rounds
4:49
DUs got a little rough.
Keep safe on those roads!
Part 2 - 3 rds + 5 SDHP @ 1.5 pood. Could definitely tell it's been a while since I've done a metcon (strength class). Hopefully it won't too long for my conditioning to come back.
Shuttles - didn't time them, but they felt sluggish. Drank too much water. And I'm slow.
Isabel - 3:00 rx'd... PR by 1:03. It felt slow starting out, but I stayed steady the whole time. Felt really good. I needed this.
Couplet - 4 rds, 5 sdhp w/1.5 pood - box jumps sucked the first couple rounds until the hamstrings calmed down. I was gassed.

got 27 snatches rx'ed in the 5 min. This is a 4-rep PR. Also, i consider it a small victory that my shoulders were not the limiting factor. I need to work on violent hip opening. (that's what she said. oh God, that sounds way dirtier than it was supposed to.)
4 rds of the AMRAP rx'ed.
have serious black lung now. but it feels good to have worked that hard.
3.5 rounds plus 6 jumps
(1pd for sdhp & stack of 2reds/2yellows for jumps)
Saw John's post and decided to give it a try...
10 Strict Pull Ups
50 DU's
3 ROUNDS - 3:18
(Actually missed like 5 DU's which never happens so it should have been under 3 mins)
Thanks John!
Back at it tomorrow! Be safe!
Evening - 2:41 & 4 rds rxd
After 6:30 class made up the pullups and shuttle runs from this mornings training class.
Got Three rounds completed and it was a great work out.
