As you all now know I love to push the envelope on Friday’s. My thinking is if you are at the gym on a Friday night you are there to work! So, we did "Fight Gone Bad".
We set up as 2 heats, with the first heat performing the workout the second heat kept score for their partner. The first heat had Niki, John, Mark, Meg, and Andy. It was Meg and Andy’s first time and I don’t quite think they knew what to expect, but minutes into the first round they knew they had a "fight" on their hands. Andy did great, scaling slightly on the SDHP and Push Press to 65lbs., but racking up a great score! Meg was awesome, she was always the first one starting the next exercise, wasting very little time and getting huge points!
The second heat was Brett, Jess, Ted, Allie, and Kramer. They had their work cut out for them after seeing the first heat. Brett and Ted killed on the rower, both setting huge PRs by the end of the "fight". Kramer and Allie were also newbies to "FGB" and kicked it’s butt! They both have such great potential and it’s a pleasure watching them improve.
After we all headed to TaKe for some Hibachi, sushi, and ofcourse drinks! It was a great time and really shows the great community we have at Albany CrossFit. It was great to see Andy and Kramer come out, Chris made an appearance and assured us he’d be back on Monday!
Great workout! Great Food! Great Friends!
