Made this short video after Guys' Night last Friday and FORGOT TO POST IT!
Handstand walking the wall was the skill as you can see-
The Mottl Fam is Diggin' the PaleoKits!
Mentioned before that the jerky/coconut/strawberry ones are Rich's faves, and B is liking the kids' kids ("Berky") that have berries and jerky.
Handy to throw in the gym bag and car for quick snacks when you're on the go.
John Lake has been a big fan for a long time- takes them to work, I believe!
The Husband has been doing the same.
Also going to order some of these:
The Whole 9'ers highlighted these coconut wraps a while back. Gotta give them a go!
SUCCESSES THIS WEEK!
Props to Emilulu as well for her 170lb FRONT SQUAT!
New record for the ladies!
Taco Lettuce Veggie Cups from Multiply Delicious
PALEO SUPER BOWL SNACKS FROM PALEOMG:
Avocado Chorizo Sweet Potato Skins

"Which is where sleep comes in. Although we might all like to imagine that we can work happily through the night, once again the data's all against us. Lose just one night's sleep and your cognitive capacity is roughly the same as being over the alcohol limit. Yet we regularly hail as heroes the executives who take the red eye, jump into a rental car, and zoom down the highway to the next meeting. Would we, I wonder, be so impressed if they arrived drunk?"
Props to Mr. Rogers, Guy Smiley and Split on the old Africa Qualifier!
Wall and push ups sandwiching an 800m run.
Right up their alley!
SUNDAY MORNING GROUP RUN WITH MARKETTI!
HERE'S THE PLAN, STAN:
The weather looks a little dodgy, so let's keep it close to home. We'll figure out a four mile track and a seven to eight mile track.
MEET AT 8:30 AM AT CROSSFIT KIRKWOOD!
Squat Snatch PR's!
ONLY SIX SPOTS LEFT, LADIES!
Sign up quickly if you're interested!
(Imaginations are running wild, knowing that MarthaMac has her hand in planning this one. Note that Lesley's sense of calm and reason will keep the evening in check. No pole dancing. Promise.)
Look at those "figure 4's"!
Another Meg FAVE! Gets a smiley... just because.
Shout out to Doug for succumbing to peer pressure and doing double unders instead of singles for the WOD. He has been working like a dog to get rid of those single skips and he's down to 1 now instead of 2 between each DU.
Good stuff.
His shirt turned all "jack-o-lanterny" during the workout. :)
On Thurday we did the HQ WOD:
Note T.W.'s FLAT BACK during every rep of the deadlift. You can see how engaged he is from the start of the pull (and to the finish and right back down again).
Well done, Tom!
So, funny timing with this workout as it is the CF main site's WOD today (Friday).
CAN YOU BELIEVE THE TIMES THEY POSTED?! INSANITY!
Chuck Carswell 2:46, Andy Bayles 2:56, Leah Polaski 3:06 (198lbs).
Here's the link to the WOD demo by these speedsters (including our pal, Leah Polaski from Atlanta!)

Lake Mill and Just John suh-MASH-ed it!
WAY TO GO, GUYS!
"It’s crazy to think I received virtually no education in seven years of medical training on what a “good diet” should entail, but I am doubtful that any pharmaceutical company or agricultural firm would sponsor a study showing how clean eating can help you get off medications, lose weight, have more energy, eliminate allergies and make you feel ten years younger."
