After battling through "Hansen" the other day Steve took a moment of reflection to strike a pose with his kettlebell name 'MotherF@%ker." At least that's what I heard him call the KB during the WOD. I think its safe to say we've converted Steve into a full blown CrossFitting Madman. Okay so maybe we had nothing to do with it and it was a personal choice but check it out. Steve is rocking the WOD'S as RX'D, PRing left and right, sporting new Chuck Taylor's, (courtesy of his very supportive wife Suz), board shorts and loads of CrossFit Gear. He is a self proclaimed "old guy" but he's just laying it on thick because young guys beware Steve is a Kettbell swinging, burpee, GHD, olympic lifting FIREBREATHER!
ANNOUNCEMENTS:
Congratulations to Dynamax and Kimmie who are engaged to be married. Kimmie we wanted you to know that Rickey told us that his face would have looked that way forever if you said "no," so we are all very thankful that you said "yes." Congrats again.
THE GYM WILL BE OPEN TOMORROW AFTERNOON, THE GYM WILL BE OPEN TOMORROW AFTERNOON.
Due to a change in some scheduling Carl has offered to open the gym in the afternoon for anyone that wants to come in and pay what they owe because it is a REST DAY. Be kind to Carl as he will most likely be the only trainer there and may have to run a new client. IF YOU COME FOR A WOD IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO SET IT UP (WEIGHTS, RACK, TIMER, ETC) AND MOST IMPORTANTLY CLEAN IT UP. Carl has bee authorized to dish out slap burgers if anyone gets out of line.
Carl, I will be there for you

Maris,
The really sad part of that video is that this man was out of work for two years (so he should have had time to exercise) and he does not appear to have lost any weight, in fact I think he looks heavier now. I feel sorry for his co-workers who may have to try and help him if something goes bad...
