The Heart of a Man

Thu, Nov 13, 2008

CFW Daily

Meet Ray Ray: The man so good, they named him twice.

Ray has heart. He commits and he follows through. And there’s something to be said for that kind of man in this world. We need more Ray Rays.

(Oh — and he’s on Facebook too.  Go find Ray and give him a shout.)

Check out Wall Extensions.

And, in honor of Ray, it’s time for another Beer Haiku. Read it and tell us if you agree or disagree.

  3. Barry Says:

    who needs CrossFit when you have SpeedFit!!! – its a good thing they’re still looking for investors so we all still have an opportunity to join them before this thing really takes off

  7. Barry Says:

    That thing looks awesome. But what if it’s raining and you don’t want to use your mobile treadmill outside. They should come with some device like a Dynometer that will let you make your mobile treadmill stationary for use indoors.

    In all seriousness, it looks like it goes really fast and could be extremely dangerous so of course I want one.

  8. David Kirk Says:

    Barry, I think there could be more fun and more dangerous modes of exercise…adult pogo sticks http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VsaAgOp0pZI
    I could see some really fun WODs with the pogo and the treadmill.
    Also, I think you get facebook at wallmart or Barnes and Noble.
    Cheers
    PS One is not enough, it is the loneliest number that you’ll ever know

  9. Nathan Says:

    I love it! Dan, I think they might have been beat by the “Treadmill Bike” – which I think you have a better chance of being rad on.

    And as far as adult pogo sticks go…. we have a FlyBar here at my office. It is a terrifyingly dangerous device. It scares the hell out of me.

    RAY RAY !!!! you rock babe!!!

    As for the other topic.. i prefer the treadmill bike! I also really like the “perfect push up” system… they helped me alot :)

    @ Jill- come OHS with me at the gym in Berkshire @ 5!!! none of those douches wanna work out with me :(

  11. Rich Says:

    What’s next, a motorized Ab Lounge or Thigh Master? Just do the work. “Go hard all the time or go home”

  12. Lisbeth Says:

    K is dangerous — she CrossFits. Stay away, students of WestConn, stay away!

    And I’m thinking we put Justas to work on making us one of those dangerous outdoor treadmills. He never did complete his plans for the trebuchet anyhow.

    Plus I’m thinking some beers on that outdoor treadmill might be a damn good time. Have I ever shown you how to play dive bomber with 2 players, shopping carts and eggs? It’s my second favorite game after office chair racing. (Push-offs are allowed.)

  13. Lisbeth Says:

    Oh — and I met with the landlord and we looked at our potential new space! Sweet! You guys are going to love it!

  14. Chris Says:

    I can’t believe we’re giving up on the trebuchet! Why do I even go to CrossFit if there’s not going to be a trebuchet?!?

  15. Jill Says:

    Yent – I wish I could BUT NO, of course I have practice…1:30-8:00 pm today. Its only 2:30 and Im sweating my butt off, I’m dehydrated from all those beers last night. Have I mentioned that I hate swimming?????

  16. Lisbeth Says:

    Um, Jill, you’re a swim coach.

  17. Dan Says:

    @ Lis, if you need any help coming up with coming up with a floor plan to play with layout / spacial planning just let me know – its kinda what i do, just on a smaller scale

    @ David – I used to aspirations of being an expert pogo sticker… then i learned about gravel driveways – my knees haven’t been the same since

    @ Nate – the treadmill bike is definately pretty awesome, it even has spinners! The guy trying to carry it onto the city bus though is just an epic fail

    @ Jill, i heard there was study out of spain trying to prove that beer is great for hydrating – genious imo

    @ K / Yentl, maybe you should go join Jill’s practice and make them all OHS – or just drink and yell obscenities at them the whole time

  18. David Kirk Says:

    The treadmill bike is very cool. The couch bike is sublime.
    @Dan – I don’t have aspirations of being an expert pogo sticker, just a graceful one, flying through the air with the greatest of ease.

  19. Yentl Says:

    @ Dan- I totally would but I swear those chicks are big babies- I’m a Bobby Knight kinda chick… they would quit in 5 mins lol I don’t know how Jill does it….

  20. Yentl Says:

    PS… I REALLY gotta get in there.. I think my new apartment is on the corner of high n cherry in waterbury- might need to defend myself lol..Ahhh the joys of the ghetto!
    ….and he learns how to steal and he learns how to fight…. in the ghetto…….lol

  21. Sue Loz Says:

    Yentl….come hang with us!!!! We miss you!

  22. Jill Says:

    Yentl’s right…today the divers had 2 practices. During the first practice 2 of the 3 cried. Tonight the 3rd one cried. I can’t even believe how much they drain me!!! The swimmers are much better than the divers but its still exhausting….

    Is there class on Sunday?

  23. matt Says:

    yentl, yea, that is a tough place

  24. Lisbeth Says:

    WAIT — did Yentl just say she was moving to WATERBURY?

    Whoo hoo! Ghetto or not, that means we should be seeing more of K back at CFW!

  25. Yentl Says:

    @Jilliana- BAHAHAHA… I’m soo sorry they suck so bad lol

    @- Matt…. you can come protect me and my dogs lol

    Lis- I PROMISE, after the semester ends I will be showing up # least once a week :) lol
