Huge Thanks

On behalf of the staff at Foundation Fitness, I'd like to thank everyone who came out this past Sunday to celebrate the beautiful new beginning to our "raw" facility.

More pictures from the Grand Opening can be seen here in our Photobucket Album.

We also recieved some snazzy pullovers (Tammy was lucky enough to get a jacket!) from Adrian & John's sister Andrea (THANKS AGAIN!)


Close Up!

We haven't posted in a while, but now we're back into it!

Yesterday we were at 'capacity' and I decided that we should then try something a bit hectic...

... maybe FGB?

Fight Gone Bad (from the CrossFit.com FAQ)
4.2. Explain Fight Gone Bad

In this workout you move from each of five stations after a minute. This is a five-minute round from which a one-minute break is allowed before repeating. We've used this in 3 and 5 round versions. The stations are:

  1. Wall-ball: 20 pound ball, 10 ft target. (Reps)
  2. Sumo deadlift high-pull: 75 pounds (Reps)
  3. Box Jump: 20" box (Reps)
  4. Push-press: 75 pounds (Reps)
  5. Row: calories (Calories)

The clock does not reset or stop between exercises. On call of "rotate," the athlete/s must move to next station immediately for good score. One point is given for each rep, except on the rower where each calorie is one point.

*our substitutions: 15lbs wall ball, 24kg kb SDLHP



Adrian 338
Andrew 410
Grant 404
Mike 215
Tammy 262

And then because Adrian and Grant are crazy, our finisher dealt with lugging our 70lbs sandbag around the building (exact distance has yet to be measured) in four different manners:

1. Over-Shoulder
2. Bicep
3. Bear Hug
4. Fireman
(Numbers are seconds it took to get around, X = passed)

Adrian 37, 69, 59, X
Andrew 33, 100, 53, X
Grant 43, 47, 42, 36
Mike 35, X, X, X
