WOD

Hey guys, Monday the 29th is “Murph” it’s a big deal for our community and CrossFit in general.

The Workout as Prescribed is:

Wearing a 20/14lb Weight Vest For Time:

Run 1 Mile
100 Pull-ups
200 Push-ups
300 Air Squats

*Partition Reps as needed*

Yoiks. Some of for lack of a better term are already wearing our weight vests! Some of us shouldn’t be running, some of us aren’t yet able to make 200 push-ups in a workout! Yes I totally get it guys. 1/2 and 1/4 options are available. Modified bike/ring row etc. etc. Versions are available. AS ALWAYS come, have fun, train hard with what you can do so you can get better. And there isn’t like a time when all the bad asses come so you won’t fit in, I don’t even know where this stuff comes from, but you heard it here from the horses mouth 🙂

TIME:
2:00pm! ***Depending on the number of people we have for the workout, we may run two heats staggered. Don’t worry as always I’ve got a plan 🙂
If you wanna come hang out and have burgers and BBQ, please come to Lynnwood at 4:30ish (4:45 who am I kidding) for the session there with the BBQ. Love you guys, I’m not running two BBQs on the same day!

For Saturday, budget 1:15 minutes for timing here. You guys will want to take forever, and John is gonna push you through it as quickly as he can. Remember, this isn’t about your true maxes, it’s about your TOTAL in the class session. Plan accordingly Omar.

Big thanks for last week guys. I know full well how much of a disruption it is for us to close down, but thanks for being so cool about it. AND we got so much done! When you come in go with the “oooh aahhh” approach instead of the look around quickly and ask “what did you guys even do?” In the end, the gym is clean (ish), the gear is maintained which is safer for you and more effective, and it gets your coaches a chance to breathe and feel really good about the gym the train out of again.

But seriously, the gym is now getting to a point where I feel really proud about it. This summer when we fix up the outside and make the parking lot right, and then outside paint, and signage then it’ll be really quite finished. I can’t wait, and what a hustle these last two years will have been to get it ready for it’s future as the place in Edmonds to come get after it! Super stoked guys. Be stoked with me!

Look forward to meeting Ed Mao if you haven’t yet! He’s going to be coming around more and helping coaching while he’s in between vastly more lucrative gigs. He’s a bull of a man, wrapped in sheer joy for all things bro. I love him like a brother I should have had when I was 26.

Saturday: be thinking about scaling options, bring it up to your coaches. Chelsea is 30 rounds of Cindy on the minute. It’s a long time to not fall off. I personally have done it at 2,4,8 and 3,6,9. And felt entirely good about it each time 🙂 I’ve never managed all 30 rounds even at 4,8,12, even though reps of calisthenics really aren’t my jam! Ha!
