Our friend and former CFW member Dr. Suzanne Buffie has recently started fermenting fruits and veggies …and the benefits are HUGE! We’d like to get Dr. Buffie in to do a clinic on fermenting fruits and veggies,  but in the meantime is trying to win an e-course called the cultured kitchen to help her prepare the class she will teach to her patients. She was in the lead for the contest, and now out of the blue someone is beating her by 30 votes and she would really appreciate your help.  If you have a second, please go to this link and just click on Suzanne Buffie! It takes 2 seconds.

I had originally posted in the programming preview that Friday would be Upper Body Strength with a metcon, but I somehow got mixed up with the days because of the New Year’s Team Wod.  Front Squat might be a little tough after Thursday’s lunges but we’ll give it a shot anyway and still get some upper body strength work in on Saturday before the Team WOD on New Year’s Day.  Sorry about the mix-up…

Note that we had originally planned to test max pullups today, but we’ve decided to postpone this until next week.  Marc, who designed our beautiful silver pullup bars, will be coming out to the gym Wednesday afternoon to take down the pullups bars and move them to the new facility, so we’ll stay out of his hair and work on some of the movements we’ll be testing later this week instead.

 

Mobility Class is Cancelled tonight but Oly Class is still on in the main room.

Beast Double

A. AMRAP in 5 min:

Bundle Up

Plan your route, your design or your strategy

B. 30 minutes of PLAYING OUTSIDE

C.10 minutes mobility work of your choice.

Yep, that’s right folks.  Your assigned workout is to get outside and PLAY at some point on Wednesday or Thursday, preferably during the day so you can get some sunlight.  You must find something FUN to do.  I suggest building a snowman, preferably with someone younger than 10 years old, or start a snowball fight or bring a thermos with hot tea and go watch a sun set or sun rise or go pick out a holiday tree.

Airdyne is the preferred modality for this but rowing or sprinting will work.  Aim for all out effort, if using Airdyne or Rower, count calories.
