I wanted to thank Karla for the excellent job she did on the presentation. Very informative and it should really set us up well going into this challenge. So thank you Karla.
I will be posting times that you can get weighed and measured tonight or tommorrow. Please stick with those times. Our trainers won't be able to do it right before or after your workout, as they have to start the next classes.
Just a recap:
You have all of next week to get your deadlift and "1/2 Murph" done. Monday's WOD will be "1/2 MURPH". So I encourage everyone to make it on Monday and get it out of the way. And Thursday will be DEADLIFTS. So Plan on doing that. If you absolutely can't make those dates, then we'll utilize the other days to get it done.
By the way, the Deadlifts have to be witnessed by a trainer and won't be counted if you lose your form (i.e. rounded back). I'm not looking for an unsafe lift, I'm looking to see your max lift at SAFE IF NOT PERFECT FORM!!!
