      Too bad those instructions don’t seem to work anymore. Something changed where the blog just won’t allow me to post photos anymore. I haven’t tried the video yet.

    Lots of fun and hard work at 6am today! Best part, watching Ramon climb that rope in the first round of the METCON when no one (even him) knew he could climb a rope!!
    A.155#
    B.135#
    C. had to keep increasing work as I went on and still made it to 20mins…
    started Rx, then at about round 3 increased the farmers walk to two gym lengths, started with 6 pistols, then kim told me I had to do more, so after round 3 I increased to 10 then at about round 6 I increased to 12 🙂
    Nice work 6am, especially the max effort squats on our final minute!!

    My favorite lifting music, is either girly country music or I like some late 90s-early 2000s alternative music

      This might be some of the worst music ever. Its sounds like a Scandinavian techno club.

        I’m sorry you feel that way Jenkins. I’ll make sure we have some Miley Cyrus on when you’re squatting 😉
