A little less forgiving but still tastier than a Dynamax

Margie and Jeremy will be spending this week working on CFSBK's favorite Grass Fed Black Angus Farm. Have Fun, guys!

Welcome to Katie from US News and World Report who will be attending morning classes this week for an upcoming article on CrossFit.

Bon Voyage to Ashley who will be traveling Europe for the next couple weeks!

We still need volunteers for this event. Please email David AT crossfitsouthbrooklyn.com if you'd like to lend a hand.

Now that all the teams have been decided, it's time to start the fund raising push.  This week we'll be talking a little about the charities we're supporting to help put things into perspective.

Hands Down the Most Amazing Thing You've Seen in a Long Time

Comments

  1. Have fun Farmer Jeremy and Farmer Margie.

    Anyone interested in climbing tonight a few of us are going. Trying to lock in a time but something in the order of 6 or 7pm. They recently opened up a their new bouldering section so there are all kinds of new tasty treats

    also, anyone interested in going surfing on friday in the mid-morning or early afternoon out in rockaway let me know. gonna do a 2-hour semi-private lesson email me for details (shanewilliams02ATgmail.com). So far, David is on board. get it. on….board.

    Enjoy the rest day folks

  2. Are you kidding me with that video? Obviously they are part of a Russian genetic engineering program.

    David – Does the FGBelated have to actually be belated? Could we do it maybe before? Just a thought.

    It’s too bad Katie can’t see some of the evening classes as well, but welcome.

    Ashley – Safe travels!

    Jeremy and Margie – Have fun on the farm.

  4. Do any of you know about adult swimming classes for someone who has not been taught to swim?

    I found the total immersion swimming people, but their workshops require a basic ability to swim.

  5. I saw this article in the Sunday NY Times and thought it might post-worthy. It’s about the increased interest in running barefoot or with something like the Vibram FiveFingers and the ongoing debate about the benefits/risks of working out with high-tech vs. barely-there shoes. It’s a business article so it focuses on how different manufacturers are trying to navigate the market.

  6. hey everyone, we are having a cocktail party friday night, and everyone from cfsbk is invited!

    we’ve sent a facebook invite out, but if you aren’t friends w/us on facebook, we’re having a get together this friday evening from 7pm til whenever. we’ll have food and drink, please email me at pcsanwald@gmail.com for directions if you’d like to come!

  7. Surfing? I’ve always wanted to learn! (that’s the reason I’ve never watched Jaws) I can’t make it this Friday but I’d like to ask you more about it next class.

    The only website I visit with any regularity is Gawker, for my NY media gossip fix…

  8. website: marginal revolution and some random architecture blogs

    ill be at BKB ’round 7:30pm, have to run home and get shoes/harness first.

  10. Video: Hmmm…That’s an awful lot like Jess and I’s first dance as husband and wife. I’m gonna have to look into copyright infringement…

    Laurel: YMCA? One on Atlantic and one on 9th street

    Reading: Other than usnews.com …Yankees.comTheAtlantic.comGrub Street by Menu Pages

    Looking forward to climbing/falling tonight!

  11. Me and Regan and Mr & Mrs Fox will be at Brooklyn Boulders at 7pm tonight. Come one, come all.

    So far we’ve got:SameerTamsonAsta

    Any other takers? C’mon…you know you want to

    And Steph, I definitely want to go surfing more before it gets too cold (provided i survive this trip). We’ll hook something up for the future.

    Also, speaking of amazing things have y’all seen this?:

    bananas

  12. I am in for getting vertical tonight!

    See you guys at 7pm.

    Also – I have a very good Black Diamond X harness that I have out grown. Leg loops don’t fit anymore thanks to David and all those damn squats. Anyone out there interested in it?

  15. Websites:news:BBC, SlateDesign: Archdaily, acidolatte, toxelDan’s Flikr, constantly.

    asta, what architecture blogs do you look at??

    I need new websites!!

    I’ll be at the lyceum doing privates from 7-9 so won’t be around for climbing. Yeah Tamson!!!!

    Also, I’ve been sleeping on this extremely dense foam, kinda feels like sleeping on a slightly more forgiving floor. So so so so so so great.

  16. websites: I read Glenn Greenwald pretty regularly, not daily, though. Sometimes Huffington Post and TPM. I also read PW Daily and Publishers Lunch Marketplace for work. And some other stuff at random, not with any kind of habit.

    Laurel: There’s a program called Camp Olympia that, I believe, might have some adult instruction as well. campolympia.com They teach at John Jay High School on 7th Ave. The Y definitely has swimming instruction for non-swimming adults.

  18. laurel. I’m out till Saturday, but might be able to help your swimming.

    sites I frequent…BBC, gizmodo, macrumors, engadget, ain’titcool, io9, wwtdd, natgeo, nytimes, u77, joblo, variety, magnum photos, Anton corbijn, hw reporter, underworld live, nme, stereogum, mininova, piratebay.

  19. see y’all at the climbing. w00t.

    my blogs:

    mish!marginal revolutioncalculated riskcoyote blogcafe hayekfalkenblogmarket ticker

    to name a few. and I wonder why i can never get any work done!

    read these blogs and you too will start to stockpile gold, guns, and ammo.

  20. nytimes, woostercollective, and thesartorialist to start the day…then little breaks forwednesdaychef, orangette, the year in pictures, designsponge, and what i wore (that last one is a guilty pleasure, but anyone who will, in all seriousness, wear heart-shaped sunglasses simply cannot be resisted…)

  21. websites:mishcalculatedriskbigpicturepatrick.netchrismartensonnytimesespnengadget

    yes i will be investing in a fully stocked bunker ASAP. they’re out there.
