It is so important to constantly challenge ourselves physically. We are people wanting to influence each other and others we meet along the way.
This is where we can get workouts for the day, track your times, pr's, ask and reply to questions and comments.

This is also where we will share what events we are participating in and opening them up to the rest of the team to take part in.

GAME DAY...

Nope...not for Football!
For Volleyball!!!

First Game... bus left w/o a couple players... Cannot be late to the bus!
Time to check the interest & importance of all teammembers...
Just one more thing in the last couple of days to stress-out Coach Tonn!
It is nice to see someone besides myself getting stirred up!
Witt & Mac are the ultimate profesionals...quiet, calm and collected (even though a storm is brewing inside). Myself, have not learned (and don't really think I will) that little trick... I just spew everything out... even when I cannot control it... Soapbox/Rants = constantly ON!!!

Good luck to VB!!!

WIN

Everything is better with a WIN!!!

Even WOD's feel better...
Today, we had a bit of strength then a GRINDER (of sorts)

Val, E and little E came up for the WOD... We scaled little E's WOD to watching and being carried in car seat and napping...

Clean Work
5 Sets of:
1 Squat Clean + 2 Front Squats (climb each set)

Jerk Work
5 Sets of:
2 Front Squats + 1 Split Jerk (climb each set, take from ground...sneaky way to get a clean in)

Met-Con
For Time:
30 Power Snatches (75#/55#)
45 Bar-Facing Burpees
60 Thrusters (75#/55#)
45 Bar-Facing Burpees
30 Power Snatches (75#/55#)

Val ~ ?? / 95# + / 21:50
E ~ 155-165-175-185-195-200 / 135-155-165-175-185 / 21:15
tb ~ 155-175-195-215-235 / 155-165-175-185-195 / 22:45

See how E snuck in an extra set of the Cleans. His goal was 185 for that one. Way to just blow right past it.
I think Little E cheering him on and offering those helpful hints was the difference!

Game Day...

Nothing like it... Even as we get older...
There is a reason we coach...
There is still the excitement of Game Day...

First # is strict HSPU, second is Kipping...

WOW... Well, yesterday at 3pm I started to have a cramp in my Hammy, then straighted leg out and felt the quad get started... Tightened everything up and the stomach cramped... Specifically the Rectus Abdominus and even more specifically the left 2nd section from the bottom. Really it looked like ALIEN and felt like HELL! It stayed cramped for about 15 minutes and I was sweatting like I do after a mile run, well...400m or so.

I wanted to quit the EMOM after the 2nd round and had a 30sec talk with that LOSER that was trying to get out of work...feeling sorry for myself! See below:
"There is a REST day tomorrow you baby!"
"I know, but this sucks...no PR's in the RM...I feel tired...these are long days"
"Ok...just quit! Go ahead"
"No...I am going to get thru this!"
"Well, then...shut up and go! Finish this!"
"OK"
