strong is beautiful

Workout of the Day

Back Squat 3-3-3-1-1-1

5 Rounds for Time:
5 Handstand Pushups
10 Ring Dips
15 Pushups

For those competing in the Big Dawgs Championship Series this weekend, use ~50% of your estimated 1 RM squat for 8 sets of 2 with 45s rest between sets… focus on using maximal force to move the bar as fast as possible. Do 3 rounds of part B, use only one set per exercise per round. Keep sets one rep short of failure. (i.e. if you kick up to the wall and feel that after 3 reps of hspu you might fail rep 4, come down from the wall and move on to ring dips). Treat it as “not for time” and pace yourself through the workout focusing on executing great reps.

It seems Kimberly was inspired by the copious amounts of shrimps ingested this week by yours truly…

The weather is almost tropical, here’s some recipes to match.

I was craving something a little different this week and Tania’s travel posts inspired me to buy some shrimp and find a new recipe to go with them.  I found a tasty looking recipe on one of my favorite paleo food blogs from CF Santa Cruz Central.  They’re a little labour intensive but well worth it and a nice change from the usual pork/beef/chicken + veggie meals.  I squeezed some fresh lime juice on the shrimp before serving to add some kick, avocado slices would be a nice addition too.

With the leftover thawed shrimp I’m going to make some primal jambalaya, I’ve made it once before and love, love, loved it!

The “Meat at the Forks” meatshop at The Forks sells Andouille sausage (and other nitrate-free bacon and sausage products).   In a pinch I’m sure Chorizo or Italian spicy sausage would work too.

Enjoy!

**** Calling on all CrossFit Winnipeg Ladies ****

Wanna Test your crossfit abilities? Then SLACKERS Football Club is looking for you.

We are a soccer team looking for female players to participate in the recreational co-ed league at the Joe Dupe Gym ( UofM campus behind the Health Science’s centre ) on either Saturdays or Sundays ( 1 game a week ) between 9 to 11 am.  The league, although recreational, is competitive enough and will run from the 3rd week of October until late March.  ALL athletes are welcome, NO EXPERIENCE NECESSARY, and like any good competitive soccer player, the ability to drink a PINT of beer in 4.5 seconds flat is a MUST !!!!

If interested call Ed at 391-0741 or e-mail him at gamez4iguala@yahoo.ca ASAP as the league starts in less than 2 weeks.

Cheers !!!
