Every class did the same workout but we had to change up the order of movements at the top of the list so that we had enough boxes to jump on and do our jumping pull ups.  One poor sweaty individual used the white board to assist them in standing up and accidentally erased some of the times on the right hand side, but I think I was able to re-create most of them...

Thursday
Is this the stare of sheer determination and intensity or is it the glare of anger and annoyance because he keeps getting his picture taken?  Some might say that the photographer is just so devastatingly handsome, with his rugged good looks that even he is distracted mid workout.  What do you guys think?

Wednesday
Some friends of the program stopped by to play with the noon class, Matt M. (TSU Offensive lineman, listed at 6'5, 280#) and James P. (TSU Linebacker, listed at 6'3, 257#).  These boys could throw some serious weight around and both agreed that if the entire team were training by way of Crossfit they would be a completely different kind of monster.  Good luck with the rest of the season and I expect to see you guys soon.
