Big Week!! Again 🙂
OK, not quite as big a week as last week, but with Linda on Saturday, and Fran on Thursday, AND Diane on a Tuesday, it’s a big big BIG week 🙂
Wanna hear the bigger news?!?! We’ve gotten our Gym Mascot! Stef came up with it (I’m sure Keith was in on this) during the Beach Event on Saturday: “The Turn It Loose Tug Boats, small but mighty!” It’s so cute! And totally what we’re about. Now we just gotta get that into a logo somehow, and start smashing on fools.
Workouts:
Monday: 50 Ab Mat Sit-ups, 800m Run, 21 Wall Ball Shots 30#-10’/20#-9′, 400m Run, 21 Wall Ball Shots 30#-10’/20#-9′, 400m Run, 21 Wall Ball Shots 30#-10’/20#-9′, 800m Run, 50 Ab Mat Sit-ups
Tuesday: Diane For time: 21-15-9 Deadlifts 225/155, Handstand Push-Ups – word to the wise: remember that workout from last week where we had only 1 deadlift each round? Yeah, that one. If you weren’t in the mid to high 300’s for that, using 225 for this workout just isn’t the best plan. HUGS.
Wednesday: Trade Rounds with a buddy 5x: 16 Seated Single Leg Jump, Double Leg Landing Box Jumps (Sit on a bench, land on 16″ is the Rx), Band Resisted Running (Buddy Resists you, down and back), 16 Russian KB Swings 88/70, is it really timed?
Thursday: Fran For time: 21-15-9 Thrusters 95/65 Pull-ups
Friday: Gymnastics Day! 15 Minutes of Scales and Planks, 15 Minutes of Handstand Walking, 15 Minutes of Ball Up and Skin the Cat, 15 Minutes of Paralette L-Sit Fun Times
Saturday: “Linda” – 10/9/8/7/6/5/4/3/2/1 of Deadlift 1.5x Body Weight, Bench Press 1x Body Weight, and Clean .75x Body Weight
Bingo is in Full Effect!
YO! People are posting, coming to 5am Classes, turning up for hikes on Sunday (10am at Heybrook Lookout Trail, HWY 2) gearing up for Marathon Bike Week, you name it! Couldn’t be more stoked about what all we have going on, this week is gonna be a doozey 🙂
Two Major Things Happening This Week:
1) Marathon Bike Week! We’ve got a Concept2 Bike in the Gym. Get on and ride for 42,100 Meters, as fast as you can. It takes about an hour and a half to two hours. Yeah that’s a lotta but time. Get a padded thing! Bike Shorts are a great buy, get your music right, use those ear buds. Just come in and get it done. We don’t have a schedule up (Eileen wanted to, she always wants a sign up) we are all free actors, and acting without public accountability is something that we don’t do much anymore, so practice this personal skill, of doing a hard thing, without telling anyone that you’re going to do it. Schedule the time, get to the gym, sit on down, and pedal until you’re done 🙂 Have some water with you 🙂
2) Grace for Distance!! I’ve always wanted to do this. Clean and Jerk (throw the hell out of) barbells for distance on a beach! We’re going to Richmond Beach, with banged up barbells and fat bars, and our shittiest weight plates to go have fun in the best way we know how: get sweaty with our friends! 10:30 be down there, at least in the parking lot, and help schlep the gear to the beach, then we can set up some cones, and get after it! If you’re all really good kids, maybe we can stay and do a long kettlebell flow on the beach…
Super stoked!
Monday: 100 Double Unders, 3 Rounds of: Right Handed Farmers Carry 100/70 150 Feet, Run 200m, Left Handed Farmers Carry 100/70 150 Feet, 200m Run, Finish with another 100 Double Unders
Tuesday: Thruster for 1 Rep Max
Wednesday: Moon 7 rounds for time: 10 hang split snatches R 40/30, 1 rope climb 15′, 10 hang split snatches L40/30, 1 rope climb 15’
Thursday: 3 Bench Presses 255/175 , 15 Toes to Bar, Trade Rounds with your buddy
***Save Your Hands Team!!***
Friday: 7 Rounds for Time of: 1 Deadlift 405/315, 3 Strict Pull-ups, 5 Kipping Pull-ups

The Week Before the Parade!
Geez! It’s almost nearly the 4th.
We’re gonna close Saturday the 2nd. I think attendance will be nearly zero, and it’ll give all your coaches a nice break. Remember when I was all fired up about offering 292 workouts to you guys this year? I’m still fired up, I’ve missed plenty myself, as most of us have, but this Saturday was accounted for in that original 292, and I just counted, there’s 143 workouts left this year. That’s about half. Dang. What a year it’s been huh?
Updates: Grace for Distance is going to be Saturday the 16th, at Richmond Beach Park 10:30am!
Parade Info! We’re gonna meet up at the Edmonds Gym in the morning to put the rig together and get all patriotic. As far as what to wear: RED WHITE AND BLUE! I know I know, I like totally dropped the ball and should have ordered shirts and all that stuff, I only learned about the parade June 10th, and I’ve since secured a trailer, banners and magnet signage for the Jeep, potentially a PA system as well. Mountains have been moved as per usual.
The parade starts at noon sharp, which means that 11:45am is the final muster time, and registration for yours truly is 9:30am! That also means that parking is going to be insane. Plan ahead, and we’ll save parking at Turn It Loose for our peeps, but there’ll still be a limit there for sure.
Below below, I’ll post the instructions given to me for you guys to check out.
