Tons of people, a blow-out circuit....ending with Tunnel of Pain in the pit! It looked kinda like this, but with more low-crawling. Excellent!

Memorial Day 2009

"Heroism is latent in every human soul - However humble or unknown, they (the veterans) have renounced what are accounted pleasures and cheerfully undertaken all the self-denials - privations, toils, dangers, sufferings, sicknesses, mutilations, life-long hurts and losses, death itself - for some great good, dimly seen but dearly held." Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain

Time...is on your side, yes it is.

"-THESE GUYS ARE FOCUSED ON THE PROCESS NOT THE OUTCOME. How many of you guys out there are ’stop-watch whores’? You put out a sub 3 minute Fran but half of your thrusters you didn’t push your head all the way through, and 10 of your butterfly pull-ups were technically over the bar but not really? These guys aren’t like that. I get to workout with dutch pretty regularly and ALL his reps count. He is focused on the execution of the rep and not really the stopwatch. OPT - same way; look at all his videos and read the ROM requirements on the blog (borderline obsessed with the process). These guys focus FIRST on doing the movement flawlessly and SECOND on the clock. If your goal is to be the stud of your garage or gym, then this might not pertain to you BUT if your goal is to compete, then this has to be your mindset." Spencer Nix (CrossFitDallas)

Full reps, folks. Get the quality movement first, then start to blend the intensity. Go fast but don't hurry!

CLASS CANCELLATION AND MEMORIAL DAY SCHEDULE

As most of you know my triathlon Got the Nerve? (www.gotthenerve.org) is coming up next week and as a result we will be closed on Saturday 5/23. Monday is Memorial Day and we will be operating on a holiday schedule with two classes. Advanced class at 930am and Beginners at 1030am. As this is the unofficial start of the summer season we will be holding class at Gring’s Mill (rain or shine) on the fields adjacent to the tennis courts off of Tulpehocken Rd across from Penn State Berks. This is where Corps Fitness spent its early days so it’ll be a day to remember the good times at Grings!

Stuff it!

Bag Stuffing Party
Sunday 5/17, 2PM, CF Gym
