You know Strength Bias is a tough program when even Barry says, “Lifting heavy again?” and he doesn’t have that “little kid on Christmas Day” kind of bounce to his step.
In other news, the CrossFit Games Northeast Qualifiers are this weekend in Albany. Sound off in Comments to let us know if/when you’re heading up there, so we can plan accordingly for meeting/hanging out/libations.
Thanks to our new friends over at TripleStitch, we’ll have CF Watertown t-shirts for sale and all proceeds will go to the Equipment Fund, so sign up for your turn at the coolest table at the Q’s!

We got a car load of at least 3 so far heading up Saturday for the day. Overnight plans are a no go for us – many festivities to attend Sunday!

Unfortunatley I won’t be able to make it up to Albany – I used up my get ouf of jail free card last weekend & I need to get some studying in over this weekend.
Anyways next week I’m going to start going to an oly lifting gym in Queens 2-3 nights per week and crossfitting in the mornings…hopefully this will help with my barbell withdrawals

I have to say…it killed me not to work out last night, but I was CRUSHED after the weekend’s cert.. What a great experience though! I am so fired up now, I want to do those lifts every day! I’m psyched too, to have Jen on board. This summer is going to rock!

It’s great having Jen up here. Nate’s absolutely right. This place got way more badasser.
@Sue- Hey, oly lifter. Word on the street is that you did awesome this weekend. Way to go!!
May 19th, 2009 at 12:00 pm
“More badasser”? Is that a word? And is it even possible? I mean, we already had Mary.
May 19th, 2009 at 12:34 pm
Welcome Jen,
I’m sure she’ll make me belt out more profanity than Lis does….
May 19th, 2009 at 1:33 pm
I think that should be our new CFW t-shirt logo: “CrossFit Watertown, Even More Badasser!”
What do you think? LOL!
May 19th, 2009 at 1:33 pm
@Jackie- is that even possible??? You have quite the potty mouth!!!
May 19th, 2009 at 2:47 pm
Hey all, thanks for the warm(or cold) welcome! It’s great to be here in WT. Moving is never easy but the welcome here at CFW has been awesome!
I look forward to seeing you at CFW and then out for drinks!
Jen
Jackie, Lis is better at making people use profanity then I am…she’s older and wiser!
May 19th, 2009 at 3:00 pm
@Jen- You must be mistaken with a different CFW. We don’t use profanity or drink around here.
May 19th, 2009 at 3:01 pm
(Hahaha I couldn’t keep a straight face typing that one out.)

Speaking of that drinking thing we never ever ever do: Thursday night, 9:15pm at that Red Door place, my friends band is playing in some battle of the bands jive deal and I am hoping to attend in order to boost their ‘crowd participation’ score.
Anyone care to join me? I figure workout at 6, finish working out 7ish, clean up a smidge, head over there, have some drinks and snacks, hang out with some townies whilst killing time, rock out for their 30 minute set, then go home.
Just a thought.
May 19th, 2009 at 4:47 pm
Nate, where is the Red Door? Do they have meat and coconut milk on tap?
No, really if I’m not fall down beat I may be up for that!
May 19th, 2009 at 5:44 pm
How are people that went to the Oly cert feeling? I’m still wrecked. Although maybe it’s just me because in all my wisdom, I did my b-day WOD during lunch on Sunday.
May 19th, 2009 at 9:28 pm
@ nate.. my last final is at 630pm on Thursday.. I will come!!!!!!!!
May 19th, 2009 at 9:35 pm
@ Greg all of the MaD crew are still feeling the effects of the weekend. I am sure it will wear off before this weekend.
May 19th, 2009 at 9:54 pm
KATHERINE!!!!!!! OMG OMG OMG!!!! DO IT!!!!
Jen, Red Door is somewhere in Watertown. Not sure where, but everyone else knows
May 19th, 2009 at 11:12 pm

Katherinifianakisopopolis?
May 20th, 2009 at 9:40 am
That’s why I just use “K”. It’s much harder to spell that one wrong.
May 20th, 2009 at 9:42 am
@Nate – I think your still missing 2-3 u’s & possible a couple p’s as well
May 20th, 2009 at 2:30 pm
