These will be our staples for the next 3 days. Yes, I have been reading and borrowing from Chip Conrad’s “Lift With Your Head“.

Our Busiest Week To Date

February 1, 2008 | Comments Off

We had 14 people in for class on Monday alone. Welcome to all the new folks!

Today, Mike and I took a stab at yesterday’s CF.com workout. It is sort of a combo of “Fran” and “Diane” and it was tough. Mike finished in 37:59.

500m Row Records for the Week:
Mike: 1:35
Ralston: 1:38
James: 1:45
John 1:48

Irene did her first “Cindy” too with 10 rounds using the green band on the pull-ups and doing some assisted push-ups.

Big Tires

Does your gym have big tires? Next, sledgehammers to beat on them with.

Yesterday’s workout was “Grace”. Ralston finished in 8:06 with 95lbs and James was at 11:09 with the same weight. John did a version rotating between KB, DB, and BB cleans to work on form. We also did a 500m row test and a bout with bottom-to-bottom tabata.

Reminder, no 5:30pm class today and no classes tomorrow (Saturday). I am off to the affiliate gathering in Vegas.
