Hypoxia Gym

I wanted to pass on some cool information.  Erin and Trevor at the Artisan Bakery have offered to provide Paleo breakfast and lunch food.  Several of you have already found this out.  As a matter of fact, Erin made the Paleo quiche for the pot luck at Paul and Lavonne’s last night.  They can customize what you want, or they have already experimented for a few of our folks and have some standard fare that is delicious and tasty.  Go by and give them a whirl.  Pretty cool that in our little town we have this great resource…people willing to help.  Just another reason we all live here.

Here is a link for  a good overview of FATS. Check this out and see how you’re doing.  You are likely to learn a few new foods.

Today’s workout:

Benchpress:  5-5-5

Snatch balance: 3-3-3-3

Thanks to Paul and LaVonne for hosting our Paleo potluck dinner last night.  We had lots of flavorful dishes prepared by everyone.  If you didn’t attend, make sure to get recipe’s of the yummy meals you didn’t get to try.  If you did attend, please post your recipe’s under our Nutrition post at the News and Events section.

Also last night, we were discussing “fun running events.”  Several of us are signed up for this one at the 11am heat  in August.  Let’s take a crew.  Get signed up now if you’re not already.

Heard a funny one this morning.  “I was hoping to work on my snatch today because I’m going to get wood later.”

Speaking of snatch, check out the speed and mechanics in the video of these world class lifters.  It is all the more impressive after struggling to learn the lift.  Poetry in motion.

Today’s workout:

Press, 5-5-5;

Then, tabata pull ups, squats.

I have liked Will Smith’s movies and heard about his work ethic from his start in music and television.  Watching the video is a short investment of time, but watch it if you have a few extra minutes.  Practice your skill.  Be better every day.  Do you recognize the delusional quality he discusses?  Are you realistic?

Check it out.

Today’s workout.

Five rounds for time:

10 power snatch, 20 kettlebell swings, 30 push ups, 10 sit ups.
