I bet he took a big breath beforehand too.
Box jumps?
Two days in a row at 6:30 am is a bear. Not The Bear, which I actually would have preferred. Per Andrea’s recommendation, instead of using a band, I scaled the reps on pull-ups down to six and did them unassisted. Still ended up dropping off the bar after every rep in the last two sets. Ended up with 7 and 5 DLs, which were Rx.
Dead lift at 153. Six rounds + five DLs on the WOD … and finally making progress on unassisted kipping pull-ups.

I haven’t read this whole thing since I haven’t seen it yet, but I’m going to try and go tonight. My curiosity has definitely been piqued.
630am Zombie workout (for me)
Deadlift @ 405×5
- That was a huge energy suck! Jebus.
8 rounds … Pullups were better but could still use major work
PS- Saw Captain America at the midnight show last night at it was pure pulpy comic book fun. Total recommend!
Can’t post to facebook because don’t have facebook but Kate and I will be running the Saturday 12:00 heat of the dash tomorrow. We’ll be sure to stop by and say hi to Deb and Quinn
7 rds + 4 Deadlifts Rx
Pullups were ridiculously slower than usual.
I second the recommendation for Tree of Life on the big screen. A very cool journey of images, score, and story, although if it I saw it on my tv on dvd (small screen) I’d probably fall asleep in the first 5 minutes. The sound and images of the big screen buoy the enigma.
Digging the thought of a pulpy Captain America
Yeah Logan! Can’t wait to see you guys!
Nursing an injured neck so I subbed ring rows for pullups…
5×213 on the DL, then 10 rounds + 10 ring rows on the WOD w/ DLs at 163.
Logan, I am at noon too, yo! I’ll see ya there!
Sweet Ian – I’ll be wearing a nude tone speedo. I should be pretty easy to spot.
4:30 was hot!
Dead lift at 193.
WOD 5 rounds, 10 pull ups RX.
Every pull up is a challenge still…but I will not let that hold me back. i miss the red band.
Jackie, awesome job on your RX and thanks for helping me with Skin the Cat.
Gauger, the Bermuda Triangle around your water bottle? That’s not a water bottle. That’s all.
I’m running warrior dash at 2 my brothers at 4. We have a big group and have two cancellations. Not sure how to use their slot but maybe we can make something happen if someone wants to run let me know.
405 x 5 for deadlift.
10 rounds RX, good 6:30 pm group
Warrior Dash at 2 pm but I’ll be dress as THE ULTIMATE URKEL ….
Hey, I just so happen to like my tiny 3 1/2 oz water bottle
Logan, Kate, Markese, Jeremy, and Jason all rocked the Warrior Dash,
Just sayin’.
