Um, Greg, he’s not real. In fact, he’s a puppet, okay?

Anyhow . . .

James! Come back anytime! Even if you do have to bring Donna. I know how that is.

Curious George that punk.. I think I heard him laughing at me too tonight when I was doing my pull-ups during Tabata. He’s going to be real curious when I stick my foot up his… ok deep breaths…

I’ve did the squat at home. I put the bar a bit lower on the back a la Starting Strength. It definitely felt different. My numbers were 225/245/245/245/250. I would have shot for more but, I only have 250lbs. I do have some dumbells I could have duct taped to the bar, but didn’t think that was safe to get another 5 – 10 lbs. Also, I’m not really in a place where I can dump a failed attempt, so that is a limiter too–no failed attempts.
I’m sad to miss the Tabata fun tonight. I’m off to the 4th grad science fair.

I love that you call Curious G. a “mofo”. Meanwhile, I miss the “safe” and the giant poster of the Boss, and everything else about Crossfit Funtown.

I still prefer front squats WAY more than back squats. I find them to be a whole lot easier. My FS and BS one-rep max numbers are unusually close, though we haven’t really done BS 1′s in a while.

@Rich. No Friday AM class, there is only a 5 pm that day. You might have to come on Saturday morning??!! I don’t know what the workout is tonight, I’ll find out when I look at the board in a few hours. I’m sure it’ll be a fun time.

Nice Chris & Sue!

I ended up doing 135 / 155 / 165 / 175 / 185 , I probably could of gotten 190 and need to give it a go again once my legs learn not to wobble when i walk…I did try doing a 7 x 3 rep scheme last week and went for 200 on my last set and had to dump it after 2

I’m with Kirk on the back squat suckage, only back squats have been on my suckage list for quiet some time now
