Yesterday we worked on some heavy back squats 5-5-5+. Everyone did a great job! Our newcomer, Wes, is kicking ass and taking names! His squats have come a long way since the first time I met him in ramp up, and it's great to see him finally putting some weight on his bar.
Know who else came back yesterday - Chris Sutter! Welcome back! Chris has surgery on his hand for a torn tendon (ligament? SOMETHING). He came back last night, and dove right into the workout. Great to have you back!
AMRAP in 8:00 of
10 sumo dead lift high pulls (50/35kg)
10 burpees
I truly believe sumo dead lift high pulls can earn you a special place in heaven. Anything that sucks THAT MUCH has got to earn you someĀ privilegesĀ in the afterlife. Kris Loyd went thought his workout prescribed yesterday, and she did amazing! Let me tell ya...once Kris gets unassisted pull-ups, she's going to be a real fire breather!

Glad to be back... So many cute new faces too! Awesome to see so many new people. Wes you rocked it friday night! While I was on the floor after that WOD debating whether or not I wanted to crawl to my water bottle on the other side of the room you were walking around like you just got there.
