Rich, Sue, and Nate tackle “Helen” during last night’s class.
Tonight’s classes will be testing out some new skills with kettlebells — imagine that! (In addtion to the Main Site WOD.)
And, it’s not fitness, but it’s important news, because 6,000 people go to the ER every year because of those stupid plastic packages: Death to Clamshell Packaging!

Jackie and I are grabbing some dinner and “refreshments” on Fri or Sat night — who else wants to join us? (Power Barners, don’t be shy. We know you still use your hands to eat, but that’s okay — we’re inviting you too.)

I’ll never understand how “Helen” ends up getting so incredibly tough so quickly. I suppose the 35 degree weather didn’t help matters. Nevertheless, Kirk was the man last night!
November 18th, 2008 at 11:56 am
That is quite the action packed photo.
But yeah, Kirk killed it last night! I passed him halfway on his way back from his last run and he must have been cookin with gas for the swings and pullups – cuz he was done! Next time I am expecting sub 10 minutes from him
Ah well, see y’all tonight!

Fat Friday update! (For the Day After Thanksgiving)
Donna and Matt (from CF Great Barrington) want to come down with a group of their crybabies and whiners (oops– let’s hope they don’t read this blog!) for us to smack around. I won’t be here (I’ll be in lovely TX) but the new and improved Melissa and Kirk (of Helen fame) are volunteering to honcho everything. Basically, a great WOD and time to throw something on the grill and/or get rid of T-Day leftovers.
So, we’re looking at 4pm on the 28th. Does that time sound good? And who’s in?
November 18th, 2008 at 12:17 pm
@ Lis, for FAT FRIDAY, we may be in, may need to adjust for logistics. Will discuss with you tonight.
Very interesting thread on ABlog yesterday, to me seems like a tastes great less filling kind of argument. Can’t wait to reap the benefits of MOPs learnings last weekend.
See y’all at 5.
Cheers

You guys want to do Vasi’s?
November 18th, 2008 at 2:21 pm
I wanted to do Helen last night – but it was way to cold & dark … so i did some benching instead, it was a cop out – i know
This friday is a no go for me but I think the fat friday thing is a great idea, is there anyway we could push it a little earlier though? say 2:00?
November 18th, 2008 at 2:42 pm
Friday- no bueno
gotta work in the hell hole that is longhorn steakhouse lol
SUE!!!!!!!!!!! YOU ARE A FOXXX!!!!

Helen is my favorite and perhaps best workout, so I’m glad we did it last night. Having Chris to push me on those runs helped….it’s fun trying to keep up with him. For the rest of the guys, the pullups are the key. Your times will go WAY down if you’re having a good pullup day. Last night was the first time I was able to get 12 straight on all 3 sets. We just have to keep working. I’ll see you guys Wednesday (the VIP 7 pm class is ON!)
November 18th, 2008 at 4:40 pm
Vasi’s is good by me for Fri nt.
Oooh — the Wed VIP class. Might have an appt then, but if not, I’m in.
November 18th, 2008 at 7:37 pm
Let me know the count and I’ll reserve some tables for us
November 18th, 2008 at 7:38 pm
What time?
November 18th, 2008 at 9:02 pm
I’m thinking 7pm — and that time is good by Sue too.
Anybody else in or is it just us 3?
Naaaate, come out and plaaaaay . . . Bring Jen!
November 18th, 2008 at 9:50 pm
I’m in!
November 18th, 2008 at 9:58 pm
Outstanding!
We’ve got a foursome.
November 18th, 2008 at 10:03 pm
OOhhh, a night with grown ups!! We’ll have to see if we can recruit grandma to come over for an hour or two to babysit!
November 18th, 2008 at 11:07 pm
Melissa, I’m almost positive Becky and her Mom would love to watch Jackson while Ray Ray and I enjoy some zone beers.

My only question – do we have to workout before Vasi’s?
November 19th, 2008 at 10:56 am
Absolutely not!
I have to teach the 6pm class, but it will end sharply at 6:45 and I’m changing/cleaning up and out the door to Vasi’s.
November 19th, 2008 at 11:04 am
lis, you do have a way with words, whaaaaa!
