Yesterday was allllmost hot enough to make Tommy Mo happy. Had we closed the door, and seen triple digits inside the Fort, he would have been ecstatic. In all seriousness though, if it's hot outside, it's going to be hot at the Fort. Please make sure you are drinking plenty of fluids throughout the day to ensure you show up HYDRATED and ready to work out. If you roll out of bed, have 9 cups of coffee and expect to make it through a WOD on a hot day....you're kidding yourself. DRINK. WATER.

The strength work yesterday was hang power snatch. We saw some really cool new PR's. Earl put 90kg's over his head, which is pretty impressive stuff! In addition to Earl, Heather, Hero Mike, Kris, Ivy, Bethy, Steph R., Jessica, KTUCK and StephL. also set new PR's. Great job you guys!

The metcon was double unders and deadlifts. The goal time was 3-5 minutes. Yep, that's right. Only 3-5 minutes is all you'll need. We did NOT allow people to substitute single unders. Aren't we mean? We substituted double unders with attempts. There's really no other way to get better at double unders than to practice. LOTS of people got double unders for the first time yesterday! I know Special J had the world's biggest smile when she finally got that rope to pass under her feet twice.

You'll notice there are about 14 new faces at the Fort this week. Yep - 14! Here's one of the many new faces you'll see!

Everyone, this is Shawn. Shawn, meet EVERYONE
