We just got back from Austin and it looked like this down there.  I just got back into the gym today after a long time of sitting in front of the computer and packing out skids in the warehouse.

You quickly realize that there needs to be something to keep the sanity in your life and I prefer to grab a barbell and put in work.  All of our athletes are the same, we don’t breed soft people.  The following tshirt is a badge of honor:

It is time to tool up and get the outdoor gear like climbing ropes and Rogue pullup systems.  Our climbing ropes are the same ropes used by the military every day.

The CrossFit Games MidWest Qualifier will be hosted at the Rogue compound on 16-17May09. 

Check out the new Rogue MidWest Qualifier Site

There will be 3 events on Saturday and one final event on Sunday.  This is open for scaling but only the top 6 men and women will move on to the games with the prescribed WOD.

You can sign up as a volunteer on the site as well.  Thanks for all of your help as we put on this great event.

If you would like to be a sponsor just let us know.

Pictured above is the new Legend GHD – We have them in stock and they ship right away. This is a much more economical way to purchase an excellent GHD.

These items will be in the store tomorrow so keep your eye out.

If you live in the area you can drive to the Rogue Factory Store and pickup all the gear! We design, manufacture and warehouse the equipment. We are the standard!

This is a pretty sweet story that I got from Lamarr Smith out in California.

I have been needing something to get myself motivated! Time to get back in the gym and get after it!

CLASSES ARE CANCELLED WEDNESDAY 28JAN09

We got the Deuce fired up yesterday, so if we need to we can pull people out of the snow!

It is getting closer to the launch of the New Rogue SPX system, here is a pic of the Rogue Bar sitting in the HD J-Cup! There aren’t any threaded pins to strip out or little rubber fittings to fall off, just steel!

NO Rogue Training WEDNESDAY JAN 28th

From USMC

If you ever see a box or piece of equipment with this tattoo on it, know that it is built to last.  We take a great deal of pride in the products we manufacture.  This project involving 400,000LBS of equipment getting sent all over the world is an example of how we rise to the challenge.

The New Rogue SPX System will be available within weeks. This chassis for this system is a bullet proof squat stand with adjustability from shrugs to press. Soon you will have the capability for pullups, dips, pulls and much more. We built our stands out of heavy steel and this is meant to take abuse.

You will be able to get the uprights in M35 Deuce inspired Olive Drab or Black. Here is a pic of 4 sets headed to the USMC.

We are building the following for the United States Marine Corps:

1) Custom Olive Drab Squat Stands

2) Custom Bumper Plates

3) Custom Plate Carts

4) Custom Benches

5) Custom Gymnastic Rings

This is just to name a few, we are a team that builds equipment.  Our new squat stands are second to none.  When we say we consolidate shipping we mean it!

From USMC

The picture above is headed to Korea and it has the following inside:

1) Rogue Squat Stands

2) Concept 2 Rowers

3) Rogue Rings

4) Rogue Benches

5) York GHD

6) Iron Woody Bands

7) Ader Chalk

8.) Rogue HG Collars

We consolidate shipping and we build equipment that lasts, that is what we do!  No job is too small and no job is too big.

Oh yeah and Caity Matter’s dad Rick Matter helped build the set that is headed to Korea!!
