thursday night bro session lifting to a remixes of katy perry. absolutely one of the most money crossfit workouts i’ve had.
125 lbs (sets 1-3 felt light, sets 4-5 felt perfect, sets 6-10 felt like i was lifting a god damn skyscraper above my head)
6 even. haven’t felt this great in a wod in a while. was able to just keep moving and moving and even ran between the t2b and DUs. I had to break up some of the T2B into single reps but it only took a few seconds to hop back up on the bar. I attribute this to a newfound rest strategy – do a 6am on day 1, get a great nights sleep, eat a higher GI meal for lunch lower GI meals for breakfast/dinner, show up prepared to dominate at 8:30pm on Day 2.
Phillipe – enjoy bermuda and congrats on your anniversary!
Thursday night bros – in the house! Jermaine, Justin, welcome to crossfit metropolis. Prepare to get stronger, quicker and better looking than you ever have before.
165lbs – just right
6 rounds – Rx’d
Double unders were unbroken on last 3 rounds. Calve is almost @ 100%

5+5 rx’d
- big class at 5:30! nice work all
