    Nice work brother! I knew big things were in store when you decided to warm-up on my max at 49″….

    Right on Derek…f$*kin’ bad-ass bro (notice I didn’t technically swear)…for those of you who weren’t there, Dewy warmed-up to the stack of plates in the most primal (gentle and loving) of ways (pictures to follow)!!

    BAHAHAHAHAHA….
    btw… sorry if I offended anyone last night… the excitement of box jumps can apparently loosen my tongue a bit.

    We’ve got some crazy box jumpers at the gym. Way to beat the mental game guys! I still have to see it to believe it….

    Coaches.. I’m coming in today for the WOD… can’t do PU’s so you’ll have to think of something else I can do between the OHS.

    As rx’d 13.3? I can’t remember exactly, 13:ish
    Pullups killed me, grip went fast. Thank you SK and Dewy for coming at 6, this is not a WOD to do alone.

    @Dewy, that 56.5 was so close you could taste it. Will happen soon. Nice work yest! Glad I was there to witness the excitment. :)

    @brendan
    Brendan, I mentioned a couple times to Tania that I have two metal-framed, wood-platform-topped jerk boxes which you folks are more than welcome to use. If I remember correctly they are ~38 inches tall, and at roughly 325# apiece it would take a good team running-jump to knock them over. Plus they’re pretty handy for overhead barbell work too. No coffin paint scheme unfortunately, just a solid scrape-your-shins black. :-)

    11:34 Rx’d……OHS were surprisingly hard, elbow was really hurting on second round of them and had to drop the bar 3 times, even tried to change grip but did not help.

    Box jumps were fun, definitely could get more if I was not jumping on wobbly plates as some interesting bails happened….lol

    I’d still love to get those boxes in here.

    Does anyone have a trailer we could use to move them?

    If they’ll fit in the back of my truck, I’ll pick them up.

    Cool. I heard rumors of that offer but wasn’t sure if it still stood. That would be sweet!
