WOD: – Strict Press (Compare to 10/20/10): 5-5-5 – Back Squat: 5-5-5 – AQAP:100 Toes-to-barEvery minute on the minute 5 Push Press at 95/65 Post results/thoughts to comments PRs all over the place today guys, awesome job. Many of you getting PRs in both the strict press and back squat, and for some of you who are really new to lifting we saw increases of 50lbs or so on the back squat while maintaining great form, sick! Abs and forearms got crushed for those of you who could do the toes-to-bar. Again great job guys, see you tomorrow. Cheers. Kristi working her way up on the back squat Warming up with bear crawls…not sweat on the mats, just freshly mopped That’s a full pull-up rig The rugby guys killing it – Jade

WOD: “Badger”- 3 rounds AQAP30 Squat Cleans 95/6530 Pull-upsRun 800m Post results/thoughts to comments Awesome work today everybody…forgot the camera today so no pictures of everyone pushing through this beast of a workout. Great job on the squat cleans, many of you are making great improvements on that lift. Awesome work on the pull-ups as well, many are getting considerably stronger on the pull-up bar and making their way down to smaller bands, or no bands at all. Great job guys. Have a great weekend and happy Halloween. Cheers. – Jade
