WOD Talking, Strippers in our midst and Good results but Bad times

Just in case you missed it, our good friend Freddy Camacho-man Savage posted that there's a magazine out there dedicated to Crossfit. It's called, WOD Talk. http://www.wodtalk.com/

Kinda cool looking website, I haven't checked out the stories yet but I will. I promise. Website review coming up.

Now. On to other more interesting topics. Such as the fact that Bumper and Kristi are tying the knot this summer.

A wedding. Fantastic. His and her bachelor parties. Even better.

Except this is Maui and you can't really do anything interesting. Not really.

Then I started thinking . . . you know there was a time when two of our female members made certain comments about one of our male members.

SO maybe they could give a bruddah some extra cash, have him put on a small mankini and boogie to YMCA.

That's for Kristi and the girls of course. I'd have to find something for Bumper to do.

(Hey look at that, flights to Bangkok are only $300 online!!!!)

I'm just teasing. Congrats you two. Besides, I'm not the one you should be worried about. I heard about Shauna's party bus. Bumper should be the one worried if she's planning Kristi's party. I'm an angel in comparison.

So, let's talk WOD.

Back squats for strength today and it felt pretty good. I did five reps of 225 and squatted down DEEP.

Then we did five rounds of 10 front squats, 7 handstand push-ups and a 100 meter run with 30 seconds of rest in between.

Back got a little stiff and for the first time in a long time my wrists were giving me trouble. I couldn't bend them back like you're supposed to for front squat and it sucked.

My time wasn't bad but I'm just not getting the times that I want and I keep on finishing about two minutes after the big boys.

Just gotta keep pushing it I guess. I've been getting some nice compliments from people about looking less like an out of shape slob so I'm pretty stoked about that.

But I gotta keep working on the times. NEED. FASTER. TIMES!!!

Got an 800 meter dash tomorrow. Twice.

Push push push push.

Shoots.
