After a week of laying on the beach, Dan got back in the gym and hit some serious weight today!

Instead of taking their lunch break, our noon crew is busting it to get better!

Summer is the time for vacations. Some of our athletes have been to the beach, others have taken a Western States tour. No matter where you are headed, or where you have gone, you can still find time to get in the gym. Everyone needs time for rest and relaxation, the difference is that our athletes want to get back in here and WORK.

To get results you have to put some work in. Our athletes set their own goals, and they understand that the only way to reach them is to work hard. Getting into the gym at least 3-4 times a week is only the start. We are seeing everyone’s progress on a daily basis, and it is awesome!

Almost every person broke their own goals in the workout today.

Lynn has been working hard ever since she stepped foot in the gym. Her progress has been amazing, and she is setting new goals almost every day.

Our athletes are dedicated to getting in the gym and working hard. Today was no different. Everyone worked hard and burned their way through a tough workout! Doc put in a little extra today, running the 6 miles from his house as his warm up!

Heather burning her way through the 300!

Mark Miller completed his Elements training today and entered the Rogue family after a hard charging sprint workout. All the trainers can’t wait for you to hit the Level classes, Mark. Your intensity will be a welcome addition! Killer job!

The anticipation was palpable today as the workout of the day was written on the Noon workout whiteboard. Max deadlifts. This would be a fairly normal day except for the fact that Carolyn Thomas was in attendance. A calm confidence was easily seen in her demeaner as she quickly surpassed even the big guys with plate after plate added to her hapless Pendlay bar. Everyone knew exactly what was going to happen. Carolyn was about to break her own deadlift record, that of the heaviest weight lifted by any female Rogue member. We all knew it was going to happen, but by how much was a mystery. 305 came just as easy as 105. So did 315. Then 325. Bill gave the order of one final rep. before the WOD would begin. Carolyn approached 340lbs with the same coolness as always and lifted it to waist level in one easy and perfect deadlift. Stay tuned for the video!

On a lighter note, win a free Musclemilk if you can come up with a caption for whatever is happening here:

In our skill/strength session we worked on the clean and jerk.

Then we progressed to a team workout based around the “Murph” workout. Below is the background story of the fallen hero:

Navy SEAL (Sea, Air, Land) Lt. Michael P. Murphy, 29, from Patchogue, NY. Murphy was killed by enemy forces during a reconnaissance mission, Operation Redwing, June 28, 2005. Murphy lead a four-man team tasked with finding a key Taliban leader in the mountainous terrain near Asadabad, Afghanistan, when they came under fire from a much larger enemy force with superior tactical position. Mortally wounded while exposing himself to enemy fire, Murphy knowingly left his position of cover to get a clear signal in order to communicate with his headquarters. While being shot at repeatedly, Murphy calmly provided his unit’s location and requested immediate support for his element. He returned to his cover position to continue the fight until finally succumbing to his wounds. U.S.

Brief view of the madness!
