Barbell Bent Over Row - 4x6 (sets across)
Here's an opportunity for us to teach a new movement for later use in workouts, if such a time were needed. These are to be performed by pulling from the ground each rep (no touch and go) and bringing the bar to a spot on the body just above the belly button. Complete these on a 2 minute clock.

A little twist on things for your working out pleasure. There are six classes tomorrow and each one will do a different workout. You will not know what the workout is until you arrive. Each class time was assigned to a different person of the gym. This person is responsible for designing the workout. I've seen some of them already and they are legit, fun workouts.
Choose which class time at your own risk. Ha.
5AM - Amanda Brei
6AM - Amanda Brei (different than 5am)
9AM - Addi Kahrs
12PM - Joe Westerlin
4:30PM - Jimmy Garofalo
5:30PM - Ricky Frausto
I will post all workouts to Saturday's blog post in case any of you wanted to give the one's you missed a try during Saturday's open gym time.
Post all results to comments/Logwod.
Bad-ass! So how was the Warrior Dash? Did you like it? Could it have been better? More challenging? Or everything you thought it could be?
Post answers to comments.
I would definitely do one again. And next time, I'm not playing nice with BC. You're on your own, punk.
It also boosted my confidence about the Tough Mudder Josh and I are running in October. 12 miles is way past anything I've run before, and I'm NOT excited about the distance, but at the end of the Warrior Dash, someone could have easily convinced me to run it again. (in exchange for a hefty ransom of bacon, of course) #willrunforobstaclesandbacon
Also also, HAPPY BIRTHDAY, JOE W!
As for the warrior dash besides the first mile run uphill it was easier than I thought. I did all the obstacles which were a lot of fun. I will definitely do it next year. Addi is correct. The workouts at CFO were much harder. I can name a few just in the past week or two. I'd do the dash before I would do those again.
Looking forward to Ricky's surprise WOD tonight. Yikes!!
HAPPY "30TH" BIRTHDAY JOE W.!!!!
I agree with Addi it was much tougher to do the training than the event. The run was a nice way to thin out the herd. Had a great time with good company too. Would do it again.
Possible Tough Mudder team? I know Egan is in.
Looking forward to what Ricky has for us at 530...

running was the worst part of the dash. There was one hill i really wanted to walk but Ben Mason encouraged me to keep joggin...made it hard to abandon him at the obstacles as he alwasy chose the slow lane! I may or may not be interested in the tough mudder, I go back and forth...12 miles is a lot and the whole shocking thing doesn't interest me very much...
scared and excited to see what Ricky has in store for 5:30 and HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOE! HOPE THIS IS A WONDERFUL YEAR FOR YOU!

Conditioning- Ohhh wonderful Bear Complex with 77# and Burpee box jumps. I got 2 reps of the bear complex in the 8th rd. It was a long and sweaty 22". I actually loved this one...well love is a strong word. I didn't care for the burpee box jumps but there wasn't that many. After a nasty skinning of my shin 3 weeks ago I was a little nervous. Biffed it once but recovered well. Ha! Just had to use my arms a lot!
NIce job 5:30!!! Good times....good times!
Conditioning:
Bear complex/burpee box jumps Rx'd
