Quote:
"It is of interest to note that throughout history, the rise and fall of nations has seemed to coincide with the rise and fall of the physical stamina of their people. Greece rose to the height of her glory (leaving her indelible mark upon the world) during that period when the physical vigor, the patriotic zeal, the independence and freedom of her people were at their height. Athletic professionalism for the few and a lack of strenuous participation among the many brought about a decline in the national physical stamina and a consequent decline in the power of Greece. The same may be said of great Roman Empire and of Egypt. History indicates, too, that a decadent nation realizes the costly blunder it has made only after defeat at the hands of a physically superior enemy. A period of reorganization follows and attempts are made to imbue the nation with the need of physical improvement."-"Gymnastics and Tumbling," Aviation Training Division, Office of the Chief of Naval Operations, U.S. Navy, 1944.

Does anyone know if you can rent the rent the, "Every Second Counts" at Blockbuster? Or if anyone has a copy, can I rent it form them. you can totally charge me a late fee, if i return it late ;-)
ReplyDeleteI have it Miranda. I can bring it tonight. :)
ReplyDeletei must say that i was pretty disappointed with the movie. i def would not watch it again
ReplyDeleteYeah, thanks Nicole! Hey good job last night, told you, you could rock it with the 55lbs! You strong like bull!
ReplyDeleteNicole, can I borrow it after Miranda?? I would like to check it out.
ReplyDeleteI have a copy of it too if anyone wants it
ReplyDeletewe have a copy too if anyone want to borrow it....I will bring it to the gym tonight.
ReplyDeleteThanks Aimee. I will take it with me tonight after class if that is ok, I will return it Friday. Thanks!
ReplyDeletenice job dave. it took me way more than a month to get to a 135 pound hang power clean. good work.
ReplyDeletejas-your pr on the board is still 135 for HPC, so Dave was pretty pumped.
ReplyDeleteother standouts for the 12:00PM class, Ray with a solid 195 PR, Kelly first attempt at Power Cleans at 75 x1, Lisa with 130 x1...next time all three Lisa!
yeah i know. i think 135 is a huge number. i think i can MAYBE get 155 from a hang and i think my HPC is only 175 or something. ray's number is HUGELY impressive as well. way to throw the weight around guys!
ReplyDeletemore warm ups like the 5:15 class today!
ReplyDeleteMike-so you can leave more welts on my body...stop reminiscing of your water polo days!!!
ReplyDeleteKit-way to take that 70# KB for the team!
Someone had get Sam to stop complaining about not having enough 55 #KBs.
ReplyDeleteIt was light weight anyway.
Mike, I agree. Run the bases (aka Pickle) was a good warmup. Next time we'll all just throw at Aimee and have her run around the gym.
variety is the spice of life. a warm-up should loosen the joints and combine a few of the following:
ReplyDeletepush
pull
opening of the hip
closing of the hip
monostructural activity
a burpee combines a opening and closing of the hip and a push and the running was monostructural.
so, the warm-up, albeit childish got everyone loose and sweaty so it accomplished its goal in a non conformist manner.
Hey Jason~ I wish I could have used 80 the entire WOD, but I dropped to 75....
ReplyDeleteAnd yes, the warm up yesterday was so much, we should definitely play more games!
Did I miss a ball throwing exercise warm up at the box yesterday? i think it was better for the clock if i missed it :)....see you all on Saturday and possibly Friday if the graduation i am set to attend gets moved inside!
ReplyDeletemiranda:
ReplyDeletei dropped you to 70 for the WOD. for the number of reps that you were doing, i think it was the right decision.
Curin-the penalty for hitting the clock now is 1,000 burpees....hummmm
ReplyDeleteJason,
ReplyDeleteOk, cool didn't realize that. Thanks for helping me last night.
Next time I will do 75! I have to get stronger some how....
if 1,000 burpees is the punishment for hitting the clock you can bet that i will NEVER do that again! i hate 1 burpee let alone 1,000 of them suckers!
ReplyDeleteAre we posting the new max plank record :)
ReplyDeletemax planck.....lol
ReplyDeleteget it?
