  1. Back Squats:
    5 @ 70, 5 @ 90, 5 @ 110
    5 @ 115, 5 @ 135, 5 @ 155

    WOD using 95 lbs: 3 rounds + 2 ring dips
    (I use the term ring dips loosely – depth is poor at best.)

  2. back squats warm-up:
    105×5
    125×5
    150×3

    working sets:
    165×5
    190×5
    215×16

    WOD w/ 165#: 4 rounds plus 2 dips

    (plus an additional 10 dips in round #2 because apparently I can’t count)

  3. Ha – I was sitting here reading Natlie’s post going – “What@? She’s pregnant – she shouldn’t be squatting 215!” Thanks for the laugh Garth!

  4. Gonna b 90 and sunny for pool party tomorrow! Woohoo. If you have never seen Breck after a couple beers your missin out!

  5. Jedi Knight: Warrior monks. Disciplined and experienced, Jedi Knights become so only when they have completed “the trials” (final tests). The terms “Jedi”, “Jedi Knight” and “Master Jedi” are used interchangeably to refer to this, the most common rank. Padawans and Younglings address Jedi Knights as “Master”. The five tests are usually known as Trial of Skill, the Trial of Courage, the Trial of the Flesh, the Trial of Spirit, and the Trial of Insight or Knowledge. In Return Of The Jedi, Master Yoda (Breck Berry) gives his apprentice, Luke Skywalker (Brody Bowman), the trial of confronting Darth Vader (competition) for a second time so he might become a full-fledged Knight. Occasionally, performing an extraordinary (usually heroic) act (like a heavy C&J) can earn a Padawan learner Jedi status, such as when Obi-Wan Kenobi (Brody Bowan) defeats the Sith Lord Darth Maul (competition at midnight madness).

    Judging by the intensity and your use of “Jedi Mind Tricks” during this lift, it is beyond doubt that you have graduated from a “Jedi Knight” to a “Master Jedi.” Looking strong my friend!!!

  11. Alright Ladies and Gents, this is the last call for anyone who participated in the Open to let me know whether or not they’d like to form a CFJ Affiliate team. We’ve got a few folks that have e-mailed me. If we spoke in person please STILL e-mail me so I know that you are still interested! It could be fun!! Then again, I think it will be a blast to be a spectator too!! : )
