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.

Fire Safety

Mobilize
Warm Up
500m Run to loosen up
2 Sets:
10 GHD Sit Ups
10 Hip Extensions
10 Alt. Spidey & Reach
10 Cal Bike
---------------
BB Warm Up
---------------
THRUSTER
Work to 8RM
Do not do 8 reps at each wt. when climbing
Perform 5's & 3's until you are ready to attempt an 8RM
If you DO NOT GET 8 Reps, lighten up and re-attempt...
If you DO get 8 Reps, and think you can get more...go for it!
Think 55% of 1RM Front Squat.
Limiting factor is obviously the press portion...Think powerful hip explosion and use the momentum!
----------------
FIRE ALARM (past HERE)
For Time:
3 Rnds Bergeron Beep Test
50/35 Cal Row
3 Rnds BBT
50/35 Cal Row
3 Rnds BBT

Bergeron Beep Test = 7 Thrusters (75/55) + 7 Pull Ups + 7 Burpees
To be Rx, no step-down burpees...feet must stay together (in unison).
If 7 Reps is too many, scale to 6 or 5... the goal is to go UB in Thrusters, Pull Ups & Burpees...
Move very methodically thru these exercises...

Mitchel ~ scaled this WOD
A.Johns ~ Scaled Pull Ups & subbed 500m run for the row...
tb ~ 175# / 19:23

Thrusters 95x5, 115x5, 135x3, 155x3 then attempted the 175#...was just right... I could not have gotten a 9th rep or added any more weight... Was considering going after 185# but let the ego go and went lower...
As for Fire Alarm...I was hoping to go OTM with the 7's ... that went out the window by the 3rd rnd in the 1st set... took about 15-20sec in transitions b/t BBT & Row, Row & BBT
3Rnds ~ 4:00 (1st finished at 50s...started OTM...2nd finished at 2:10...worked right into 3rd, but paced it)
Completed Row ~ 7:30 (3:15 Row)
3Rnds ~ 11:30 (started at 7:45... 3:45...didn't think it was that fast)
Completed Row ~ 15:15 (3:30 Row)
3 Rnds ~ 19:23 (started this one at 15:30...so last rnd took 3:53! ... AND I WAS GASSED!!!
Praise the Lord!

TURTLE CLUB
For Time:
21 OHS + 200m Run

15 OHS + 200m Run
15 Thrusters + 200m Run
9 OHS + 200m Run
9 Thrusters + 200m Run
Rx = 95#/65#
Thought process here is NOT to be breaking on the wt. movements and push the pace on the runs when/if you can, but NOT to the point where you need to break exercises too much...
Wt. should be one you can get 20+ OHS easily...Strive NOT to break on OHS and at most 1 break on the Thrusters in rnds of 21 and 15 (really strive for UB here though)...
----------------

tb ~ 255#FS / 315#DL / 59 Reps (11 BBJO) / 58 Reps (10 BBJO) / 61 Reps (13 BBJO)

SHEESH... I have to say... I pushed the Rows (58s-1:05-1:05) Power Cleans were (5-5-4-3-2-1-1 / 8-4-3-3-3 / 9-6-6)...the intensity was HIGH & I don't think I could have (or would have) pushed BBJO any faster if I broke-up PC to smaller sets or singles...
Wendts splits ~ 1:10-1:10-1:05 Row / PC I think he did 5's & 3's
I really wanted 1 Rnd in that first set...those BBJO just take me so much time! There is no fast way to go with them...BBJO time left = 60s - 53s - 75s.
I should have pushed harder on the LAST SET!!! 1:15 to get thru 15 BBJO should be fine, but boy was I gassed! I just went mentally weak on it!!! Thought I could pace it and by the time I realized I would be off-pace it was too late...speed up and missed by 2!
God, my Lord, is my strength.

Outstanding by Casey Drake!!! Just a year ago, he was doing modified Pull Ups and was at 75# for the Thrusters... He has been growing within these workouts and within the last year by leaps and bounds!!! Congratulations & Keep it going!!!
Brehm was forced to push it a bit more in the 1st Rnd of Thrusters...thats what teammates do...push each other (even when they don't know it)... I was going 21 straight, and he was going to take some breaks, but could not bring himself to break as I was going UB!!! ALSO, he pushed me a bit in my 800m with me just trying to make it back before he started his 400m run (Just made it BTW)

Runs were typical for me...BRUTAL & S-L-O-W...I will take it with everything else that has been going well... If I want to get better at running, I need to add some running a couple times each week...
I do not really need to get better at running...
With simplicity of heart, I have joyfully offered everything to you, my God.

Independence Day!

Today we celebrate America's Independence...
Let us Honor and Respect the Freedom, Liberty and Life we are fortunate to live in these United States of America...

We are blessed! 

Regardless of what you think of the politics of the USA, we are the BEST country in the World...

Just like in the sports we coach; you can be the BEST, but that does not mean you treat others worse!

That just means we have a greater responsibility to do what is right (and just) for the rest of the world.

REST DAY today & can do today's WOD tomorrow...
If you are up for it today...go for it!

GLEN
For Time:
30 Clean & Jerks (135/95)
1 Mile Run
10 Rope Climbs*
1 Mile Run
100 Burpees

Former U.S. Navy SEAL Glen Doherty, 42, of Winchester, Massachusetts, assigned to a State Department security detail in Benghazi, Libya, died in an attack on a U.S. consulate on September 11, 2012. He is survived by his parents, Ben and Barbara, sister Katie, and brother Greg.

REMMEBER...scaleable & sub whatever you need...
No idea if/where I can get to a Bar for C&J and/or Rope Climbs (Pull Ups)...So this may be a 1 Mile Run, 100 Burpees, 1 Mile Run type deal...we will see tomorrow
