Mary, for a bad night you still are one strong women. If it makes you feel better I had that yesterday. I just sucked at the WOD! I felt weak and just out of it.
Shake it off sister…not everyday is a PR day!(Lis said that)

Amen Lis… I swear it’s so easy to fall back into bad habits of all kinds. I’m trying to find my way back right now- with all my great CFW buddies, I am sure it will work out just fine

Welcome back to Jenny!

Good stuff today, Lis. You have to keep fighting that battle, both inside the gym and out. One bad choice doesn’t mean anything in the grand scheme of things. Just forget about it and get right back to it.

Hey all,
Last night was a good WOD, that left me feeling shitty. I did GHD sit-ups and not Push-ups do to my shoulder. I should have gone with more weight and don’t more GHD’s sit-ups..but I guess we all have those WODs once in a while.
Sue and Lis,
Thanks for the cues and cheers during that WOD! Who’s in for 5pm?

Nate- Thanks for the clarification! I should have looked it up myself! Loved the WOD last night…I’m gunning for those pull-ups, so the heavier the better as far as I’m concerned. I’m letting the clock go for the sake of weight… Every day I’m reminded how important the community aspect of CFW is…you cheered me on last night over push-ups like it was the end of the New York Marathon. That’s the thing that makes me push myself. Its the thing that keeps me coming back: great people who want the same things that I do in fitness.

Yes, it’s ordnance. I knew that. (Do I win a prize? Do I win a prize?) I guess I didn’t understand the question last night?

Sue had TWENTY more pounds on the bar than me and her form was way better than mine. Nice work, Sue!

And I’ve got some photos of Big D looking mean during that workout — and of Nate proving that a HPC is “Jumpin’ with the bar.” And Cheryl and RayRay looked cute HPCing together!

I’m not sure what our Potomac CF guest thought of us, but props to Richard for coming to WOD with us!

Welcome back Jenny!

Fun wod last night. I got those nice dual HPC bruises on my thighs as souvenirs

Of course it is always fun to work out next to Lis, and mad props to my 6pm lady friend Sue for rockin’ all 50 of them push ups RX’d! Not to mention going heavy in general.

And to answer last nights trivia question:

It is actually ordnance, not ordinance.

“A law is an ordinance, but a gun is a piece of ordnance.”

Ta-da!!
