Hope you all feel charged up after a couple of days off and are ready to train hard this week. Our new On-ramp crew started tonight and they all did an awesome job. See you tomorrow. Cheers.

Awesome work. A few of you stepped it up with bigger weights today which was awesome to see.

Julia got her first double-under today and Erik came in early to have his hand at the rower for 500m…big PR at 1:26.0. Many of you who have been working with the bands on the pull-ups are making big progress as well, really making your way down to the smaller bands.

WOD: 30 minute AMRAP:21 Deadlifts 135/9514 Lunges7 Jerks 135/95 Post results/thoughts to comments Way to work hard today everybody. You all pushed through a long tough WOD and dealt with the feelings of some serious discomfort for an extended period of time. You are all continuing to push yourselves harder and harder with everyday, and as OPT says you are “getting comfortable with being uncomfortable.” A new month is upon us, keep working hard and you will continue to be rewarded. See you tomorrow. Cheers.
