Try to focus on dynamic stretching during your warm-up rather than static. Do static stretching for your cool down. Check in with the coaches to come up with a warm-up that is suitable for the WOD, and works your goat. Come prepare with your ideas.

Hey Cindy- I am not feeling well so I will not be seeing you this morning. I will see you wed at 9.

My shoulders were pretty sore this morning, I decided to take an extra rest day. However, I’ll probably run this afternoon. I’ll be there tomorrow night and Wed. morning.

Bailey – feel better.
J.J. – Run like a bear is chasing you.
Did this one with jumping MU’s – Chest still detonated from Saturday’s pushup festival. Combined with a weekend of eating like crap, the recovery wasn’t there.
38:22 and totally destroyed.
It’s a rare day indeed when I’m looking forward to a WOD with running in it.

And a quick digression on Tom’s PR:
Tom’s bodyweight is about 155. He (easily, because of evil trickery) pulled 355 for 1. That’s 229% of his bodyweight, which is pretty solid. He had 370 to his knee, but got pitched forward and had to bail. 400 is in the cards for Tom this year, no doubt.
Think about your goals in this syntax, let us know what they are, and we’ll help you develop a plan to attain them.
Oh, and the evil trickery part was that we loaded the bar to 355 but told him it was only 345 (his old PR). He ripped it up like it was nothing.

Hi Guys, Tom and I will do the stair race, if there’s still room on the team. However, I’ll likely be the weakest link in this team, so you can just take Tom if you want, I won’t be insulted.

Eileen,
it is for a good cause – all are welcome. And I am sure you will kick my butt!
March 1st, 2010 at 8:33 pm

March 2nd, 2010 at 12:01 pm
Ha! Not sure if I’ll kick your butt, but I’ll give it my all. Guess I should start taking the stairs at work to train for this …..
