Man I love the culture at your gym. It seems like there's a ton of team spirit. And they let you rip off your shirt when it gets hot. Fantastic.

Yeah I usually throw the shirt off half way through the workout...I have a smile everytime I walk through the doors of my gym, then I frown when I figure out what I'm doing, then I get angry...then I smile leaving the gym

what are some of your best benchmark WOD results OP? my best is probably Cindy (5 pull ups, 10 push ups, 15 air squats for as many rounds in 20 mins as possible) i got 22 which i was pretty happy with.

norinicole · 11-08-2009, 08:08 PM

Nice workouts Pete

I see you're getting the same great November weather we are!

I can't do that many pull ups as my weight is around 230lbs. My round numbers aren't that high, but I manage to get decent times compared with everyone in my gym. I am definetly the strongest in the gym at the moment, which is my main focus for the Crossfit Games (Qualifiers) in March!

Hell yeah! Indian Summer. Everyone was gonna do workouts inside, and then I told my gf, Melissa, what I was gonna do and she was all for it because it was so damn beautiful outside!

Looks like another outside one today

We aren't quite THAT warm, lol. We had the one day where it hit 18. But the rest of the week's been the high single digits.

It's awesome, I love it. Could you imagine if EVERY winter was like this?!?!

NICE!

I absolutely love to ski, and I finally got a 5x7 pass to blue mountain (Basically a stump compared to the Rockies, but best in Ontario), for a 170 bucks. So I can ski all winter long

Overheads are brutal. I'm trying to get our coach to make a slosh pipe for us.
