    The Bear plays with your mind, you gotta fight thru the slow motion pain, and keep getting stronger, nice work 6am.

  5. I need to work on my front squat. Jay E and I seem to have the same rom/flexibility issue with thumbs/wrists. I'm pretty sure I can do 115lbs but my thumbs felt like they were going to break.

    FLEXIBILITY FAIL!!! =(

  11. Am curious as hell about this WOD. Seems unlike any other WOD I've done.

    Also, the last time I had a mysterious encounter that referred to itself as a "bear", things didn't turn out so well.
