Heavy Deads

The boys and I hit some Tabata Sprints before the gym opened as a last minute prep for next week's APFT. We'll see it will be enough to go faster than last time.


The little blob in the middle is CrazyMonkey trying to keep up with us on our Tabata Sprints. He was back and forth several times. Oh to have the endless energy of a child again...


We caught Dressen walking back home after a 12-hour night shift in the OR and we talked him into a quick workout in his blue jeans no less. He got right after it. Way to go man!!! Hope this helped you sleep a little better...


Kyeong pulling big weight off the floor today. She is strong!!! I can tell she is getting tired here though, her hips have dropped a little at the start and her low back is a little soft. Very strong work though, we can go even heavier next time... muuhahaaahaaha...


Randolph starting to lift some heavier weight too. I believe he topped out around 325 today. I'm going to have to get to work to stay ahead of him on these...

I would like to see a little bit more arch in his low back though. That will make it virtually impossible to get injured doing this lift.

Ryan pulling big weight today as well. Same story with his low back. Any more rounding than this and it's time to call it a day. You always have to maintain a delicate balance between perfect form and going hard enough (intensity) that your form starts to break down. That's how you get the most improvements in strength, or fitness or whatever. Way to push that envelope Ryan...


David looking as strong as ever. I think he worked his way up to 365 pounds today. I hope we weren't holding him back, I think he can pull more than that...


Our Mother/Daughter team of Renee and Lauren getting after their push ups during the standard CrossFit Warm Up. They chose to workout outside today (thank goodness). It was some beautiful weather for some Reverse Tabata Sprints. They sprints for 10 seconds and rested for 20 seconds for a total of 10 rounds. It isn't as easy as it sounds when you are sprinting "for your life". Great work ladies!!!
