SAVE THE DATE: CSA FARM VISIT, June 30
Herondale Farm, our partners in the meat, poultry and egg CSA programs, will be hosting us for a full day of fun, workouts, farm tours, and of course a delicious picnic on their farm in Ancramdale, New York. Transportation and other details are still in the works, but save the date now.

Nice lift, DO. I like the honeys just hanging around you to get on camera, nice touch 😉

I see that I'm still not assimilated yet. When I'm going transatlantic, I never think: "I should really pack my oly shoes."
I missed the CFSBK "Supple Leopard" book buy-in, so I ordered from Amazon. It came a few days ago — it's impressive. I just wish the online videos were cross referenced to the book.

Holy Shit, I went to an 8am class! I didn't want to miss Thursdays workout and this was the only time I could do it. Truthfully, not that bad… but I don't expect it'll happen often.
Bench based off 170 1rm
45×10, 75x 5
100×5, 115×5, 130×14 – Too light?
power cleans 2x OTM for 10 minutes @ 135.
Thanks for having me morning class!

6am with McDowell. Squats: 45×5, 135×5, 225×2, 235x3x3. Still sore from the deadlift/push-up workout earlier this week. Squats felt solid and gave a needed stretch. Metcon with rounds of 0:47/59, 0:48/50 and 0:47/43. Arms felt nice and pumped after this one.
Dan L says
Dr Robert M Myers was kind enough to let me do Sunday's DL instead of the squats since I'll be away this weekend
235×5, 275×5, 310×5 – felt good and light. My back was pretty tight from the DL/Push-up WOD on Weds but able to keep good positions and the weight moved well.
WOD – Didn't note my times on the row but they were in the 47"-50" range. DUs were 95/81/85

Nice Lift DO…put some weight on the bar next time. That looked too easy.

I like the extra umph when throwing the bar down after the lift. Nice DO!
JJ says

Tomorrow's WOD w/DUs
Looks like I'll be missing both squat days for most of this cycle so I was thinking open gyms with Friday as a power day and Sunday as a strength day.
Thanks Shay for roping me into the WOD, good times. You guys got some fun lined up for you tomorrow (sorry, no teaser here).

Nice, PR Jake!!
@Asta Yes I was feeling pretty spicy after a very productive clean and jerk session.
@Kim crucials: oly shoes, sweats, wrist wraps, nanos, bandana. I forgot to bring a zip lock bag with some chalk though
There were some step aerobics going on.. I forgot how poorly people approach exercise having not trained in a commercial gym for years. Everyone just trys to make everything as easy as possible. They did have a little "CrossFit Zone" though. which was just kind of a place to do pull-ups, dip station, some rings and a GHD
Mig says
JJ: yes. Will email you.
JakeL says
Thanks DO!

LBBSQ: 165×5, 190×5, 215×10
BP: 125×5, 145×5, 165×12
Power Cleans: EMOTMx2 at 135
High hang snatch: 95×6, 115×3
Snatch 115×5, 95×3
Josh pointed out some problems with my LBBSQ – my back was getting soft and for some reason I was looking straight down, the weight was moving pretty good though.
I probably had 5 more reps on the BP work set, I just kind of stopped – thx to Rob for spotting.
Both Josh and Jake gave me great pointers on my PC and I think those are getting a lot better.
