Kelly her sister Megan and Kaitlyn, Kaitlyn is an idiot savant, she speaks 13 different languages.  Which doesn’t mean much unless she’s a terrorist but it’s pretty cool

Yo!
Keith the Fat Man will be here the weekend of the 10 and 11th of March to take all of our Fat Asses Fat Counts!
For some reason there are not a lot of people signed up to get there Fat counted for.  Why!
What can the reason possibly be.  The only reason I can think of is that Everyone who isn’t on the list is super happy with themselves and does not want to lose any Fat off their bodies, which is Totally Awesome!
However, I think this not to be true.

The other (real) reason there are not a lot of people on the list is, hmmm well you don’t want to join the contest we are having.
Which is totally weird, all you have to do is get your Fat taken that weekend, diet for two months and then get your Fat taken again two months later.
Then you have a chance of winning, at the very least you will be much healthier even if you don’t win!
So I don’t get why everyone isn’t signed up for this Dude, drives me fucking crazy to be 100% honest with you.
This is why we do what we do, you come in and kill yourself every time you train at the gym yet you don’t join a contest when we have one.

Maybe I’m just stupid which I’m leaning towards just based off of experiences in my life but and that a Big Butt.  There is the slight chance that I’m NOT Stupid and it’s not me and it’s YOU!
That’s right, YOU!
WOW!  Not me, Yes You.
C’mon man, sign up for the Fat test and join the contest.
Hopefully this will keep you on track and really get you to the next level.   Let’s try this peeps.   Please don’t make me set up another contest and no one does it.
Even if you have to do it because you feel for me pouring my heart out over and over again, or even if you do it cause you’re sick of my emails over and over again.
Whatever the reason maybe, I’ll be the fall guy or anyone you want me to be ( I just won’t wear any leather, chaps my skin)
But whatever reason you need to join let me know and do it!

We’re doing the Open Wod again tomorrow 17.2 at 9am so if you haven’t done it or want to do it again or if you’re a psycho like Amy and want to torture yourself over and over and want to do it show up tomorrow at 9am and let’s get to it!

So long chaps

Crossfit Syosset/ Friday, March 3rd

This diet thing seems to be eluding some of us. What’s the most important thing to remember about dieting?
It doesn’t take a week to look awesome!
You have to be on a strict eating program for at least 3 months, not 3 weeks.  You’re not going to lose the weight you want to lose in 3 weeks.
So stop with the being upset that the diet isn’t working cause it’s been a week or two or three or four weeks and your still fat.
That’s not reality, reality is start eating well and forget about it, don’t weigh yourself everyday, don’t measure yourself everyday, don’t look in the mirror everyday and wonder why it’s not working.  Stop all that.
Just stay on the diet and check back in 3 months then maybe you will be surprised at what you have accomplished.
This is not an overnight thing, the quicker you understand that the quicker you will be on the right path.

WORKOUT 17.2

Complete as many rounds and reps as possible in 12 minutes of: 2 rounds of:

50-ft. weighted walking lunge 16 toes-to-bars*
8 power cleans

Then, 2 rounds of:
50-ft. weighted walking lunge 16 bar muscle-ups*

8 power cleans
Etc., alternating between toes-to-bars and bar muscle-ups every 2 rounds.

* Movements vary by division.

VARIATIONS

Rx’d: (Ages 16-54)
Men use 50-lb. dumbbells
Women use 35-lb. dumbbells
Teenagers 14-15:
Boys use 35-lb. dumbbells, perform toes-to-bars / bar muscle-ups

Men use 35-lb. dumbbells, perform toes-to-bars / chest-to-bar pull-ups Women use 20-lb. dumbbells, perform toes-to-bars / chest-to-bar pull-ups

MOVEMENT STANDARDS

WEIGHTED LUNGE

Each lunge begins with the dumbbells at the shoulders, the feet together, and the athlete standing tall. The rear head of the dumbbell must be clearly over or slightly behind the center of the athlete’s body when viewed from profile.

A lunge rep will count when both heels are past the line, the athlete is standing tall with the dumbbells at the shoulders and all standards for the repetition have been met.

The trailing knee must make contact with the ground at the bottom of each lunge. The dumbbells must remain at the shoulders, and the hands must remain around the dumbbell handle for the duration of the rep. Releasing the grip on the handle and letting the dumbbell rest solely on the shoulder is not allowed. Walking lunges are required. Lunging in place is not allowed. Lunging more than 25 feet in one direction without turning around is not allowed.

The rep ends with the dumbbells still at the shoulders and the athlete standing tall with the hips and knees fully extended. Stopping with both feet together on the ground is not required, but both legs must be fully extended if the athlete chooses to step through at the top. The athlete must alternate which foot leads for each rep. Shuffle steps between reps are not allowed. If the athlete fails to meet any standard during a step, including not touching the trailing knee to the ground, not reaching full extension at the top of the rep or not keeping the dumbbells at the shoulders for the entire rep, the athlete must restart from behind the last 5-foot increment they successfully crossed. Similarly, if at any time during the lunge the dumbbells are lowered from the shoulders, the athlete must restart from behind the last 5-foot increment they successfully crossed.

Scaled: (Ages 16-54)
Men use 35-lb. dumbbells, perform hanging knee-raises / chin-over-bar pull-ups Women use 20-lb. dumbbells, perform hanging knee-raises / chin-over-bar pull-ups Scaled Teenagers 14-15:

Crossfit Syosset/ Wednesday, March 1st

You all got my email before about “National Burpee Buy In Day”.
There’s like 30 people still involved in the challenge that started from the  beginning so take advantage of an opportunity that you may never have again!

I know how you all love Burpees  So do your 58 by tonight and join in on the fun.

10   Overhead Squat @same weight
5     Power Snatch @same weight

*****This is a 30 min wod, I wouldn’t use a lot of weight for this wod.  Use a weight that will allow you to keep going through the wod for the 30 minutes not one that is going to force you to stop every set you complete.
Have some of the class start on the deadlifts and some start on the Bike in order to break up the workout, once broken up there won’t be an issue.*****

Crossfit Syosset/ Tuesday, February 28th

I know i have said this 1 million times in the past but for some reason it’s just not sticking.
Here’s why it’s important to listen.  Because what keeps happening is no one listens to me and then they end up getting hurt, at that point it’s to late to listen.
Now you have no choice but to go light and start not showing up everyday of the week.
Don’t let it get to that point!   If you don’t believe me, try it.  Take a workout and do a lot less weight than you would normally do and try to move much faster than usual.
It will be a much better workout.  Using to heavy a weight only forces you to keep taking breaks which lessens the intensity of the workout.  Less intense = Less results!

Especially with the games wods, unless you are able to do the Rx weight with no problem and can keep moving through the wod without stopping just do the Scaled version.  Much better workout and much better competition for you.

Skill:

Swings 10 x 10 :30 rest

Skill:

Back Squat
5 x 10 @50%

Workout:

4 Rounds 3 min each round with 2 min rest between
Row 500
Max Toes to Bar
Score is Toes To Bar
