COMPLETELY NON FITNESS RELATED MATERIAL AHEAD One of my favorite movies as a kid was Ferris Bueller’s Day Off.  I loved his irreverence and sense of fun, symptoms even if now I kind of think he is a jerk.  But my son dropped a theory on me – that Ferris did not exist – he was a figment of Cameron’s imagination.  Don’t believe this theory?  Read this.  Or do a google search on Ferris/Fight Club Theory.  If you would like to discuss this with me in person, PLEASE, talk to me about Ferris.  I dare you to watch the...Read more

So, this site we have a running/core WOD on Thursday.  I think after Monday-Wednesday, we probably need to give the shoulders a rest. For the sit-ups, make every attempt to keep your entire foot in contact with the ground for the entire sit up. For the Goat Baggers, take them slow.  This may be hard to do in a WOD, but you can go as fast as you want on the runs and sit-ups.  Try to control the Goat Bags, and really feel the hamstring activation.
