Big thanks to Emily! I really appreciated her expertise.
green box tshirt would be cool.
what does it say next to my name? can’t read the green writing.
emily- IT WAS SWEAT! thats the story… yah
Rob, it says hulk, I got some nickname inspiration mid-day. Andrea’s was nemisis, since I think I hear at least one girl a day say “who’s this andrea girl,where did she come from?” and because she’s got a pretty serious track record of coming in half way through the day and smoking people’s times.
cool. never been called hulk. i’ll take it.
is Andrea the friend of Krista?
yeah, and Krista’s the amazon who got the 93 lb strict press. So impressive. Did I mention I had a lot of fun at the gym this week?
you looked like you were having fun. you must be meant for coaching/training/torturing.
by the way, I’m really interested in knowing the Crossfit Totals for Leon, Morgan, Anthony, Matt, and Jeff.
Good job rob, your nickname is totally fitting! Wow krista got a 93# press, nice!
Krista and Rob;
you guys did an AMAZING JOB!
Emily and Amy, thank you guys so much for the support and patience!!!
Rob,
I did the CF Total today at the YMCA. I was able to PR each of the lifts by 5 lbs (from my last total).
Back Squat: 270
Overhead Press: 150
Deadlift: 380
Of note, I wussed out on my last 1 rep single of the 270 back squat by not going down far enough, so I went for it again and got it at full depth without racking the bar in between. Not sure if that is legal, but I’m taking it!
Morgan,
I was planning on doing Cindy over the weekend at the teacher retreat, but the hotel didn’t have a pull-up bar (grrr). All they had were globo-gym machines and I wasn’t about to be caught dead on one of those!!! So, I had to hold off and do it today in our garage: 17 1/3 rounds.
I’m super bummed I missed CF Total on Friday. Dang, I am impressed by the numbers people put up! Nice work everyone!
jeff – that is some impressive weight. seriously, that press weight is heavy. i’d say the squat counts. the reason i want to know your total and the other guys is because you guys are like the fire-breathing alpha pack. crazy strong and fast.
mib – thanks. who are you?
MIB is Marcel. Who else says “Holy diapers?”
Amanda, couldn’t you just do 5 lat-pull downs, 10 pec deck, and 15 hip press?
LoL…
