Which is more important, speed or strength?

BOTH!

We trained everyone today in heavy overhead presses followed by a power endurance workout consisting of Rowing Erg sprints and ring pushups to prove that point.

Great work to everyone, packed classes and a ton of enthusiasm. I tried to beat J but missed it by 60 seconds. Taking out your frustration on a medicine ball by slamming it, how awesome is that.

Snatch complex

After a wild workout last night, the level 2 class got back to the basics, that is if you consider a Snatch Bear complex basic. Overhead squats, Heaving snatch balances, and Overhead Lunges, this is a recipe for fun!

Never Snatched before today!

What does a Firebreather look like?

Looks a whole lot like these crazy people! As an instructor it is nice to know that we could bring a great group of people like this to such a high level of intensity. The only problem now is that all of these people look at us and say is that all you got?

Figuring out their strategy in the Level 2 workout tonight. We did one of our Prison Break workouts….Fight the Guards, Crawl through the tunnel, climb the stairs and then row to shore – Alcatraz style!

First to 300!!!

The mighty Caroline shocked all today by at Rogue by being our first female to pull over 300 pounds in the Deadlift! Unfortunately the camera was not charged at the time…but you can use your imagination…and it was awesome! It is hard to believe that she could barely make it through a Rogue Workout of the Day just six or so months ago. Killer job Caroline!
