Rest day/join us to cheer on the CFC athletes at Navy Pier!!!
Check out our segment on WGN yesterday! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PCpHHgCXh_M
Are dudes allowed to show up at 7 AM? The schedule is a little confusing with a “7 AM Class / 7 AM Women’s Only Class”
I’m up…but I can wait until 8 AM if I have to.
Yes, Drew dudes are all good at 7am. Today and tomorrow are both regular coed classes.
“Hammer” w/ the 7am crew:
5 rounds for time, 90 sec rest in between:
5 power cleans @ #135
10 front squats
5 push jerks
20 pull ups
1:36-1:42-1:48-1:50-2:20 :(
Pretty happy with this, just ran out of steam on round 5. Pretty consistent throughout, those 90 second rests felt like 5 seconds by the last round.
Nice job to the 7am’ers this morning, see everyone down at Navy Pier!
Amanda with the pull-up/push-up modification. Blue band and 20# squat snatch. Light snatch owed more to my general awkwardness with the move, I think, because I felt like I could have done a bit more by the end (even though I let a few f bombs loose; sorry). Appreciated the coaching from Rudy. 14:52
Was sick for a few days this week but re-couped enough to judge for 12 hours a day with the gang. Talk about getting it in gear!
Jonny has been doing a phenomenal job – it’s tough enough for us to judge 4600 reps in a day, but tougher when you’ve gotta coordinate it all. Big kudos, Jonny!
Congratulations to all our CFC athletes on their amazing performances today. So much fun watching the competition. You should all be proud of the hard work you put in! Best of luck tomorrow!!
