“Brenton”

“Brenton”
Five rounds of:
Bear crawl 100 feet
Standing broad-jump, 100 feet

Do three Burpees after every five broad-jumps. If you’ve got a twenty pound vest or body armor, wear it.

Field Training Officer Timothy Quinn Brenton, 39, of the Seattle Police Department, was shot and killed in a drive-by shooting while on duty on October 31, 2009.

He is survived by his wife Lisa, his son Quinn, and daughter Kayliegh.

Guys and girls, awesome week. Clean and Jerk PRs, Snatch PRs, “Isabel” PRs, first full Handstand Pushups, and first Muscle Ups all over the place. The effort and consistency have been through the roof in the gym lately.

January is rolling toward the end fairly quickly and I’m curious if anyone has held their New Year’s resolutions through the last 4 weeks. If you haven’t, get back on it. If you want to start doing soft tissue and mobility work daily, start tomorrow. If you want to clean the crap out of your diet, do it with your next meal. If you want to get your Muscle Up, go through the progression daily until you have it. If you want some Double Unders,work on them every day until you have them.

It’s always fun to work on the stuff that we’re good at, but the things that are difficult, frustrating, and humbling are the things that will have a huge pay off when there is success. Diet is the big one for most people. If you’re really chasing better body composition, don’t ease into it and don’t say, “I’ll start next week.” Go all in and start right now. If you want to get lean, you know the crap that you eat that you shouldn’t. If you want to get bigger, eat steaks like T-Rex would. If you want to get better, don’t dodge your weaknesses.

Anyways, going back about 240 words or so, everyone has been doing really awesome recently. Keep kicking ass and taking names.

How does a social on Feb 4th sound? Themed maybe? Everyone drop some theme suggestions in the comments or on the whiteboard in the gym and we’ll pull one randomly. Boom.
