Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but we rather have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.

Planning to be at CFM today. Thank you for posting the demo videos for preparation!
That’s a great photo. The T in DT is for the Truth…
Struggling with trying to be mature (as usual). I’m awake, but think I’m going to cool my heels and lay off the shoulder. It’s feeling so much better, but don’t want to push things at this stage.
Back to bed. Up in a bit to ice.
I hope you guys kill this.
170# 5×5: I missed one rep in the 3rd and 4th sets. In the 3rd, I tried it again right after without a rerack and got it fine. Next time: 170# to be perfect.
KB Hell: a little less than 2 rounds. Those turkish getups are confusing.
Damn! A kb wod with getups?! CAT you’d better represent!
This is a pic of my favorite boy band.
Hahah I will be there. And was a little excited when I saw this!
Push presses at 125#, but failed at #5 on the last two rounds.
2 rounds + thrusters on the KB’s
Very tired this morning so I slept in and hit the 7 AM.
Push Press – 155 and then 165 for last 4 sets. Last one felt great so 170 next time. Note to self: switch to oly shoes on later reps for the Inigo Montoya “I am not left handed” mental edge.
KettleHell – Went very light. 12 KG for get-ups and 1 pood for everything else. 2 rounds and 4 SDHPs. Pretty lazy/tired this morning.
Cohen – you ok? Not like you to miss a Thursday wod.
Thanks so much for the blog love!!
Team DTF took care of business in Lake Placid. Believe me, that race was a team effort and I could not have done it without Brad & KPO pumping me allll the way up every time around.
A huge huge thanks for your generosity to the Standing Tall fundraiser guys. Shows what a tight community of big hearted people we have. Thank you!!
I gotta get back to the beach haha!! See you soon!
That’s the first DT blog entry I ever understood.
Concerned about Big Mike being M.I.A.
155 5×5
1 round + through the lunges with 16kg
Bigs Ups to DT. Ironman, very impressive.
3 major casualties at the gym today.
A) AC is fixed; we’ve entered the AC generation. A little piece of metropolis 1.0 died today! 3rd floor autobody shop in august; remember those days??
B) blew the ass out of my favorite cargo shorts back squatting.
C) cohen missed 2 wods in a row
Mainsite – 15:21
195 5×5 – 225 last time (third WOD in a row, tired, no juice, no heart, but glad I broke a sweat today – more than most people at 6am)
Metcon: Started then bailed, way too much thinking for my jock brain
Mainsite WOD looks fun, we should do it!
Forgot to mention Jareds epic U-neck Tank-top. Don’t worry I got a photo; coming soon to a FaceBook theater near you
Thanks for the love – elove & Jared.
I listened to my body and took those extra 2 hours of sleep this morning. I just needed a rest day.
Sorry about your shorts. Maybe you will join us and but some reebok Crossfit clothes.
60# push-press. Felt better with each set. Next time will go with 65#.
Metcon: Got through 2 rounds plus 4 SDHPs. Used three different KB weights. Those getups are not fun.
135lbs on the push press.
2 rounds + swings on the wod. TGUs destroyed me.
well done DT & team!
does reebok make khaki, dressed like a gym-teacher, cargo shorts?
Is That the look you’ve been going for? Gym Teacher? I like it!
Maybe now you’ll get a pair of LuLuLemons… They’ll stretch to the point of showing your whole crack or g-string … but they’ll never ever rip on you!
Push press – 70# first 4 rounds; went up to 75# on last round. Will start at 72# next time.
2 rounds + 1/2 turkish get-ups. Went very light on the KB. It was just me & Vicky at 10am. Seeing her rock those turkish get-ups really motivated me.
Not feeling nearly as bad about skipping today since Big Mike bagged it. He sets the standard for dedication.
I will – however – still do a mobility/strength thing at the globo.
Under Armour has a nice set of pliable khaki choices.
Back to work and Aimee vid breaks.
Elove, if I ever see you in a pair of lululemons, my face and heart will be full of disappointment – keep it real!
95 on the push press.
2X AMRAP had to leave at 7:05
Thanks for the coaching, E.

eric – go for the lululemon shorts. My shirt was from lululemon and I could tell how jealous you were of it. We can be crossfit clothes twins.

*EJ kicked my butt!
Congrats DT you’re officially an IRON MAN!
Elove I have a connection at Lulu and I can get u a pair of khaki shorts that won’t ever rip on you.
I’ve seen Eric wearing a Lululemon shirt. What a sissy.
It took me several ripped shorts/boxers, pain from sweat in eyes, bleeding shins, and drenched cotton shirts to become the epitome of CrossFit fashion that I am today.
You really have to love our blog. And for today, Allison questioning Eric wearing a thong under his cargo shorts. The pull between crossfit clothes and yacht wear to the gym. Oh, and by the way, several people did a WOD today.
All I am saying is that the proof is in the results. I started crossfit almost 2 years ago and could not break parallel in an air squat. Today, well today I can. The results have nothing to do with getting up at 4 in the morning and working my ass off. Its all about the clothes.

I’ll wear a thong, lulus, and fuzzy leg warmers if it means I can out squat ESal..Beast!

PP – 70# for 4 rds 75# for rd 5 – Arrgh! I need to stop being such a chickenshit and put more weight on the bar from the get-go.
Loved the Turkish Getup Wod! Stacey struggling hard alongside me kept me going!!
2 complete rounds + 12 reverse lunges. 16k for swings & SDHP 8k for single arm moves.
85# Push Press
2 rounds + 10 SDHP, used three different weights. Get ups suck.
That sounds like my outfit, Eric! And I’m gunning for his squat, too.
Mike, I didn’t mean that Eric wears thongs! I just mean that since I started doing CrossFit that I’ve seen lots of butt cracks and panties in the bottom of deadlifts and squats! Girls (and Eric), make sure to do the bend over test in the mirror before the big debut of your new threads in the gym.
heheheh The good thing is all of the booties have been very, very cute 
I think Mikey is in the “shorts ripped while squatting low” club. Then we got him Lulus. No rip yet except into the credit card bill.
Allison, I doubt my flat Asian ass will bust out of the shorts, but if you see crack, please let me know.
Nancy Reagan, “just say no to crack.” She was onto something.
Total rest day.
