Question: What's a favorite funny quote of yours?

WOD

"King Kong"

3 Rounds for Time of:

1 Deadlift (455lb.)
2 Muscle-Ups
3 Squat Cleans (255lb.)
4 HSPU

Notes: Most or all of us will likely need to scale the loads with this WOD, and maybe the movements (Muscle-Ups, HSPU). Scale as needed. Loads should feel heavy for you though. Good guideline is to use a 2RM for the deadlifts, your muscle-up progression, it's OK to power clean if you don't have the squat clean yet, and a heavier strict press or scaled HSPU movement will work for the HSPUs. Enjoy!

"Mama always said life is like a box of chocolates - you never know what you're gonna get." - Forrest Gump

WOD

Row 2K For Time

Then AMRAP 15 minutes of:

5 TGU's R

10 One-Arm KB Snatches or Swings R

5 TGU's L

10 One-Arm KB Snatches or Swings L

10 KB Swings (2 Hands)

Men: 1.5 pood

Women: 8 KG KB

Scale as Needed. You want a weight that feels modeately heavy for the TGU's, but allows you to complete the 5 reps. Then use that same KB for the one-arm snatches/swings.

Option: Use a 2nd, lighter KB for the swings as needed.

Question: In a fight, who wins: Fran or Mike Ditka?

WOD

5x5 of:

Overhead Squats
Weighted Pull-Ups

Rest 5 minutes, Then:

"Grace"

For Time:
30 Clean and Jerk (135)

REST DAY

Thanks to everyone who came out yesterday to push themselves in honor of our veterans and fire/police. It was an awesome time! The workout was great, but more importantly we all had a great time hanging out, working together, and pushing ourselves together. Community - that's what it's all about. We all can do more together.

If you all are interested in having similar days like that in the future, put your suggestions in the comments section. I know Dan, Aldo, and myself love to do things like this, so let us know. If you want to plan an event - we're all for it. Again, just let us know and we'll help make it happen. See ya'll on Monday!

Below are some pics from the Veteran's Memorial WOD.

VETERAN'S DAY MEMORIAL WOD

Come on out and show your support for our local veterans, firefighters, police, and other public servants today at 10am! We're doing a special WOD today in honor of them, which we will announce at the box at around 9:30.


Open to anyone, and free of charge! Donations for the local VA will be accepted.
