Ah, the high styles of the Autumn of 1981. Recognize anyone?
WOD:
Deadlift 3-3-3-3-3 reps
And if you’re a glutton for punishment, run 4 x 800 m, resting between rounds for as long as it took you to run the previous 800.
We’re still working on the video from the “Swayze” WOD.
No rhymes or rants tonight, but we’ll come up with a topic-du-jour tomorrow. Until then, sleep well, and dream of large women.

Hmmmm .. would that be young Will Malz in the second row, the one with the #44 jersey? And while I know Cindy was too young to even be in school at this point, that girl in the first row, third from the right, with the clogs and flowered dress sorta has Lula’s smile!
What do I get if I gues right, maybe a free pass on pullups for one WOD?!

The “Swayze” almost put me in the corner today but I did it! 37:58. Thanks Cindy and Will for coming up with a great, fun workout that also pays tribute to Mr. Swayze.

OH My Gosh Eileen, Gene said that, that girl third from the right looks like Lulah as well. As for Will sorry buddy, but your a dead give away in that picture.
And Sleep well and dream of large women?? Over my head!

Wouldn’t it be hilarious if it turned out Will was really the nerdy-looking kid in the beige suit?! I have to say, however, that Will is the least nerdy-looking kid in that class. In fact, you could photoshop him into a school group photo from 2009 and he’d look right at home.
I’m guessing the large women thing is from a movie, like Stripes or Ghost Busters or some other early Bill Murray film ….

MOM! the “Sleep well and dream of large women” quote is from The Princess Bride remember? He knocks out the huge guy and says it to him…we have that movie at home so Id say its time you watched it again! And that’s definitely Will, I thought it before I even read the comments. Its the same face and smile, and he towers above all the other kids on the same row!

Oh yeah, you’re right! Princess Bride, go figure. Thanks Bail!

What’s dynamite is the John Travolta “Saturday Night Fever” wannabe right behind the boy(in the football jersey) who we(Will and I) believe to be Will Malz…Will did you come out of the womb with a football jersey on?
Coming back slow and steady.
Monday: cfwu 3x/10 dips band assist to 20 sec holds, pushups, b.extension, oblique work w/25lb weight
inclined b.press 10×5: 45lbs, 50lbs, 55lbs, 60lbs(7x), 65(4x) ouch low #’s., The incline bp works you over a little differently than a flat bp!
Tuesday: Swim 1 mile lame-o time: 39:33
Watched the swimmer next to me for a bit- wow, she smoked my ass. Decided I have to work on improving my breathing, strengthing upper body, and working on the turn…that’s so darn tricky! Miss you guys!
