Great job today by everyone! Heavy front squats, huge efforts and support for others through the Wod. Awesome. Thank you Pj.
Nice having Gary there, hopefully he will make 5am a regular thing..?
Chris – thinking the 5am might be the norm until skiing season! Gaff – thanks for the partnering and encouragement. Like the 5am vibe!!
Upon further review, the Movie clue is ” Golden Arcs ” Hope this helps
Nope
I got this movie… it’s a classic!
Another amazing morning at CFRT! Super impressed with the front squat form which is allowing you guys to crush the weights. Thanks for a great start to the day.
Woo hoo…4 days in a row!!! Never worked out more than twice a week in my life. Loving it! Body is sore but I am doing it! And I remembered to POST! Now that’s making progress!
Worked on my squats – they are coming along.
Double Arcs
(think I may actually have the movie this time)
14 minutes 25# – doing singles – 40/35/30/25/20. Should have done 25 each time to make it work. But I finished a bit after the 14!
Thanks PJ and Amy…we missed you Kirsti!!!
Love seeing the work done at 5 am…inspiring!!!
Keep up the great work, Lori!
Awesome Lori! Love hearing these things and of course the posting 🙂
Sore is good, awesome job this week Lori 🙂
Day off today and tomorrow, but I’ll be back this weekend!
Thanks Kirsti!

Felt good this morning! Cut back the double unders a little so I wasn’t hanging out there so long but they’re definitely coming along nicely! Probably should have upped the KB weight but still felt good. Good work 5am and thanks everyone for the push at the end, happy Thursday everyone!! 🙂
Awesome job, Olivia. Looked strong the whole way through!
Thanks Gaff!

Oh yea Matt!
Definitely over 200 next time Matt! That looked too easy and depth was no question! -S
Strength-worked up to 175# @100%. Felt pretty good. Thats my previous 1RM
Golden/Double Arcs-10:56
Box dips, 44#, doubled the singles. This was the first time in a REALLY long time that I didnt feel like I needed to stop/die at any point during the WOD. It feels really good to notice the effects of eating right and keeping up with the water intake. Again, I cant wait to see how things progress throughout this challenge! 🙂 great class Sarah!
Love this Marie!!! Great work today, keep it going!

I didn’t get up to my 1RM today but its partially because I went to low. Im still having trouble finding that sweet spot when I get into the heavy weights. I either go to low or I flirt with parallel. Just something I need to pay attention to and I’m sure will come soon enough.
Golden Arcs
8:14 as written
I had some carbs today for breakfast and that seemed to do the trick. I was back to normal during and after the WOD. I’ll do the same thing tomorrow and see what happens. Thanks Sarah! Great work 9:30
You murdered this WOD today Phil! Awesome job. Ezekiel FTW 😉 -S
EZEKIEL FOR SURE!!!

You posted!!
The Grosman’s showin up!
Double arcs 9:45 (I think) – red band for dips felt easy but I knew RX was out of reach. 53# Kb.
Thanks for the coaching Mike. That kb felt so much lighter the it normally does. I really thought 53 was out of range before we started.
Mina posted right before me and it was there, but now it’s gone. I’m don’t think I can get her to post again!
Just needed to be approved is all buddy, it’s there now 😉

Awesome coaching Mike, that push on the last leg took few seconds off my time!
You definitely kicked in that extra gear, love seeing that stuff!
FS- Worked up to 315#. Felt pretty good today.

Good battle with Duane in the 4:30 class. Could keep up in the end. Nice work everyone.
Couldn’t
Looks like you kept up just fine to me Stewie!
Front Squats tonight.
% work off 300. Got 300×2 🙂
Golden Arcs: 10:36 rings, 70#KB, 2x singles.
Great job 7pm! Thanks Mike.
Question: When we did the 5×1 front squats I PR’d does that become my 1RM or do I stay % work off my previously established 1RM. It seems wrong as the % work builds up and as we are at the end I think I should have been using my last 1RM and not the PR number?????
Your correct, use the 1rm max from the beginning of the cycle, unless I have personally adjusted you since.
I made the same mistake, I used my last week’s PR (205) instead of my previous (185). I squeezed 2 on the 100% but I felt heavy
Nice job 7 pm!
165/195/225/245/255/225
Got 2 reps on 100%. Moving on up! Great job by my partner Joe with the awesome form.
