Been to crossfit Delray Beach, Florida the last 2 days:
Friday – 20 minute am rap
10 pullups
20 KBS – 24kg
30 ab mat situps
40 DU
Had to scale the DU’s and did some jumping pull-ups. Completed 4 rounds.
Saturday – Team Flight Under Pressure
10 minutes each station for each member of team to get 1 rep max for bench press, thruster, and hang power clean (so did reps to build up to max)
bench max – 195
thruster max – 145
hang power clean max – 125
trainer worked with me on form for hang power cleans. Very helpful and friendly staff. Recommend the box if anybody is in the area.
Not back until tomorrow night so will miss Janitor’s last clean. Good luck buddy!

Great seeing everyone again!
Made it through with 9 rounds exact. Thrusters felt sluggish but DUs came through.

Sorry I cannot be there to join everyone is saying good bye to one of the truly great guys of Metropolis. Mark, I just want to take this moment to say my goodbye. So may things come to mind when I think of you. Humble, inspiring, service to fellow man and our country, and most of all, just a good friend. Wherever you go and whatever you do, remember that you leave behind a group of people who are better off for having known you. Stay thirsty my friend.

Skinny V. Please. Brazil 1970 would have destroyed….obliterated this Spanish team. Germany will beat them in the final, I’ll lay money on that

I would be surprised if Spain reached the final. I think Portugal will beat them. Go England!

Good call Vikram, and The Wall Street Journal goes two steps further and makes the convincing case that Spain is THE BEST TEAM IN HISTORY IN ANY SPORT if they win on Sunday. (https://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052702303918204577448383166444226.html) Meanwhile, Phillip’s team is watching the last two rounds on TV, and his pick to win the final is watching it on TV as well, so clearly Phillip should spend more time reading the Journal and less time putting down Spain in this forum, talking about teams that he’d bet would beat Spain, including one from before his Daddy met his Mum.
