Check this out!

I love saying that. And, for those of you that have been training with me, you know that something really cool is about to come out of my mouth after that phrase. So, check this out!  I want to hear some workout ideas from you guys. Not that I'm running short on ideas, but I want to know what workout you think would kick a$%? What exercises would it include, and how long would it take to complete? Again, I have my idea of a “fun” workout, but I've been doing this thing for awhile and I sometimes get lost in my own idea of “fun”. I'd like to see a little bit of action on the comments on this one (comments have been slacking lately, but thats another story). I'll give you until the end of the week to post your workout idea. To make things a bit more fun, we will vote for the best workout and we will put all our trainers through it…maybe you'll get some revenge for all those resisted sprints? Come on, we know you guys can take it, but can you dish it out? Let's hear it!

 

Coming UP Sept - Oct

Tactical Strength Challenge - this Saturday we are hosting the Tactical Strength Challenge (TSC). This is an open competition that everyone can do. It is a strength event consisting of three events: a three-attempt max deadlift (1 rep max), a max dead-hang pullup test, and a 5:00 minute Kettlebell snatch test. There are men's and women's elite, open, masters, and novice divisions. Results from participating gyms are collected from across the globe and posted at www.tacticalstrengthchallenge.com. However, regardless of your skill level, you can still do the competition as a benchmark workout to track your progress. We do this competition twice each year and it has been cool watching people go from no division, to novice, and then to open divisions as their skill and strength progressed. Weigh-in's start at 9:00 and comp starts at 9:30. Just shoot me an email to sign up.

 

Fight Gone Bad - FGB 5 is coming up on Saturday, September 25th. Every year that we do this workout, we have 30+ people doing it in heats and it is a blast. The energy in the air is crazy, and everyone is yelling at each other to push harder - it's madness the whole time!  We encourage everyone to come check it out and bring a freind. We are suggesting a $20 donation if you have not raised any money. The money collected will go to Wounded Warriors Foundation, LIVESTRONG, and the CrossFit Foundation.

 

Project Jacked! - check yesterday's post about the upcoming PJ challenge. It will be a good opportunity to dial in on your nutrition and have some fun at the same time. More info will be coming soon. I still need everyone to post their interest to comments.
