2nd Anniversary Celebration

I am looking at Saturday, February 23, 2013 as a possible date to celebrate our second Anniversary. I will look into possible venues this week and let you know. Be sure to save the date if you can. Let me know if you have any conflicts already. I'm thinking dinner celebration again with families of anyone who can come.

Also we need to celebrate Dylan's faithful service. His job is changing and he will no longer be able to train the 6pm class. He is not really gone, however, and will be available on most Saturdays. He has some great ideas for "open gym" events. Check them out when you can.

 In his place Nathan will be our 6pm trainer. Because he has some other obligations, there will be a little bit of juggling of trainers. I will be the trainer for the 6pm class for the next two Wednesdays and for every 6pm Friday class. Nathan will be trading me for the 4pm class on Friday. Then after two weeks Brian will be the trainer for the 6pm Wednesday class. If this is too confusing to follow, don't worry. All you need to do is sign up for the classes you want to come to and see who the trainer is when you come in. I promise you, whoever the trainer is, you'll get a good workout, just like always.

Wods for the week 2-4-13 thru 2-9-13

 I have been told by Phillip that I am doing a disservice to some of the women in our gym. By giving alternate weights for women to do Rx wods some women that are strong enough to do more are stopping at the more convenient weight. I do not want to be a hindrance to anyone's fitness! I would like to start an experiment this week. If there is a weight listed for a wod everyone should aim for that weight. As always, you may and should, scale anything as needed. Let's push onward toward faster, stronger and fitter. Choose appropriately and let me know how it goes this week.

MONDAY 2-4-13
3 Rounds for time:
30 Pull-ups
30 Deadlift - 155#*
30 Box Jumps - 24"*
* try to scale only as needed

TUESDAY 2-5-13
7 Rounds for time:
10 Med Ball Cleans
10 Burpees

WEDNESDAY 2-6-13
"Gwen"
15-12-9
Clean & Jerk (choose your own weight)
Touch and go on the floor only, no re-grip off the floor, no dumping, if you do this is a "Foul" and you must start that round over. Rest as needed between rounds, score is load (weight), not time.

THURSDAY 2-7-13
"Tabata Whatever"
4 consecutive "Tabatas" for total reps:
Jumping Back Squats (choose your sand bag weight)
Sit-ups
Pistols - alternate legs
Ring Rows

FRIDAY 2-8-13
7 Rounds for time:
1 Rope Climb
10 Wall Ball Shots (20, 14)
15 KB Swings (53, 35)
20 Double Unders
