WOD: – Work Your Weakness: 20 minutes – Rower Intervals: Record Fastest 500m. Should be max efforts, each proceeding 500m should get slower4x500m – 3 minutes rest between intervals Post results/thoughts to comments Wow, we saw some fast times on the rowers today.

We saw some big improvements on the deadlift with everyone going a bit heavier today and exceeding their own expectations. We had two new folks in today Kate and Amy who did a great job and jumped right in on the action. Everyone’s favorite, burpees, rolled in to town today and I think crushed all of us in a very swift and simple manner. Awesome to see so many people do the workout as prescribed and do the entire 100 burpees. Good job everybody. See you guys tomorrow. Cheers.

As I said, we would have a shorter WOD today but I think you all found just how hard a short 5-10 minute workout can be. You guys all killed the met-con, and everyone’s overhead squats are getting that much better. It was great to see Marta in the gym today as well as George after some time off. Good work everybod, see you tomorrow. Cheers.
