Spider Monkey – WTF, you have some explaining to do:
http://hotchickswithdouchebags.com/2010/02/mandarin-orange/
What is the cultural aesthetic and moralistic breakdown within North American-Asian society as a whole that has led us to this?
I hope that we can stop this in time. We fought a losing battle in New Jersey, and the douchescrotery has spread like bad Milla Jovavich movies about stuff that spreads. I think.
Regardless, a line must be drawn.
As a sidenote, if you watched Jesey Shore recently (and I know many of you did), feel free to wax nostalgic with Erika, as that is the land of her birth.

Brian- How in the world did you stumble upon that website? I really hope you didn’t google “hot chicks with douchebags.”

I decided to run the four courts four miler…I don’t know if I would consider what I did racing, but it was my first organized run. Finished in 29:48 I think- about a 7.5 minute pace.

Mile: 6:24 (lifetime PR)
Bench: 7 at 155 (meh, bench is one of my weak points)
Pull-ups: 18 (lifetime PR, really happy about this one)
KB swings, 1.5 pood: 32 (first time doing 1.5 pood for anything, so I expect this # will only go up)
All in all, pretty pleased with today’s workout. Great job 11 a.m., though I fully expect more shirtless runners in the rain with me next time…

Good efforts at the 1100-
We didn’t do a leaderboard today because we wanted this to be YOUR benchmarks. You should be competing with yourself to improve your strength and times between now and the next workout like this.
And we had fun with the free class – threw in some row work, so that was interesting. hope to see those folks again!
March 13th, 2010 on 2:08 pm

As usual, don’t listen to Brian. Like all awesome things, I am from the great state of Texas. TEXAS, people.
March 13th, 2010 on 3:42 pm
Yes that was a random Brian post… but let’s clarify a few things – first, spider monkey is mexican (ole!). Seriously though, come talk to Spidermonkey about Asians – I have my theories.
@ Simple Jack – so that’s what all that noise was outside my building. I figured there was a run or something judging by the screaming/ cheering. Should have let me known, I would have stepped outside to see you in a race (and of course cheer).
Today’s WOD was fun:
20 Pullups
17 BP @ 155# BW
37 KB swings @ 2 pood
7:10 mile
Definitely dogged the mile (whoops). I blame it on pacing with Scotty too hotty for the first 400.
What happens when you put boys in a room/area with a 45# bumper plate? Weighted pushups of course. Did 15 with that on my back, then did as many slapping pushups, then clapping pushups, then regular pushups as I could. Thanks Ryan H., Jim, Ken, Drew for the idea.
March 13th, 2010 on 3:54 pm
Run: 6:23 Not too bad for me. It had been a while and I’m a few pounds heavier…know I can break the 6 min mark this summer! (almost caught Brian…but he pulled away by a few seconds before I could trip him)
Bench: 17 @ 185
Pull-ups: 15 (used mixed grip)
KB: 35 (did swings with 2 pood) That thing got heavy REALLY fast!
See everyone in a few hours!
March 13th, 2010 on 4:10 pm
Run: 7:34
Bench: 14 @205
PU: 17
KB Snatch: 44
Definitely need to figure out my running better, but happy with everything else, should have pushed harder on the snatches, could have gotten 50 I think…
March 13th, 2010 on 5:27 pm
Pullups: 2.5 (PR)
Bench: 5 @105 (I wish that were body weight)
Run: 7:32 (PR)
KB Swings: 58 (these sucked)
