AWESOME Coach LoLo Deep V-neck Fry-day. AVA playlist jamming, KPO sleeping, Jared and Big Mike crushing. The world is as it should be.
17:58 – but with some form issues. Special thanks to Coach EJ for her help. Have the heart – need the form.
Thinking about getting a 6 AM tattoo…that’s how much I love those guys.
Hey metropolizers
Aside from brian a., brian s. And dave l. Is there anyone else running the NYC marathon this year? Please post on blog if you are or shoot me an email at brookebregman@Gmail.com.
Thanks
Keep the morning class times the same! 6am forever!
17:49 – this was rough. A real burner.
Great morning class. Makes waking up at 5:20 every morning completely worth it. So inspiring.
18:48 rx’d
L-sits felt amazing. Doing 25 T2B’s and ring pull ups everyday really helped with these. DU’s were working, push ups felt fine until the end, shoulder was killing me.
Throwing on the stupid v neck for the group photo showed why I don’t like v necks….. #mancleavage.
Yes, long live 6am!

20:21. ROM needs development.
16:56 Rx’d
It was nice to just turn off the mind this morning and go-go-go. All the OLY lifting and the form problems that I have gets in your head. Its nice to just do movements some times that you don’t have to think about.
To all of you who are competing tomorrow, good luck and enjoy the experience. And, if your not, sign up for something, anything, its an awwesome experience and makes all this hard work we do worth while.
18:35. The 6 AM crew killed it this morning! I was struggling to keep up with Skinny, Big Mike, my nemesis Darth Vader, and the usual suspects. Good times.
Official Theme song:

Special apologies to Gus for getting tripped up on the run. Who knew Skinny V could take out a South African rugby beast?
Gus – you’re a great sport and a very welcome addition to the morning!
AVA– I see that and I raise you.
This is the new theme for the 6 a.m. class

honored to participate in my first true Vneck friday. thank you, jared.
In addition to Vnecks, playlists,knocking each other over,complaining about schedule changes, and gossiping, we also had time work out this morning. which was nice
20:40 RXish – L pull ups questionable – chasing KPO the whole time was helpful / frustrating
20:26
That was a tough one.
Did pull ups for the first round and went to ring rows for the others.
Love the 6AM crew.You motivate me to get up every morning! Great coaching Lolo and EJ!!!
17:45 rxd
ej- cute puppy!!
Made up Wednesday’s KBS/ burpee Paleo challenge WOD – 16:14 RX’d. Tough to do alone but I really appreciate Z, Brett, EJ & Steph cheering for me and pushing me while you were in the middle of your own WOD!
Sara just dragged me into joining her work team for CMC tomorrow. A little afraid I am going to be in over my head!
19:28 RX’d
29:13 as rx’ed

BSQ 65-75-95-115-125-135-140-165 as 5-5-5-5-5-(5,3)-3-1
Randy at 65 lbs, 10:52.
25:50 rxd. Went a little extra distance on the 2nd leg of the sprint accidentally, which was fine bc I’m a shit runner.
34:09
2rds with pull ups, rest ring rows; all regular pushups.
I love/hate 6:30 for making me finish this crap. Whoever came up with thiswod needs to be beaten with a stick, it was just awful. I think I was staring down pukey from the 3rd sprint onward.
17:36 rx’ed, strict L sits.. legs above parallel for all reps and first 3 rounds of them unbroken. felt good
