It has been a running joke/casual observation around the gym that people who were not breast fed tend to take longer to learn a kipping pullup.
Upon further examination these same people seem to some how be bad dancers as well. As it turns out....these same poor buggers may also have lower IQ's, as one study of 14,000 Belarusian children has shown.
Personally I got 9 days of the boob before my mother went back to work. Must have been some strong potion in Heather's breasts because I can dance like Michael Jackson. Were you breast fed? Post your answers and we will see the results at the party on Saturday night.
The guys from Crossfit Newport Beach are coming to Vancouver to teach us proper running mechanics. I met these guys in Las Vegas and they are awesome.
I encourage you to sign up for the cert, it is not cheap, but I am betting it will be worth every penny. Having your running mechanics broken down on video and analyzed by experts is priceless.
Crossfit Vancouver’s “Sailors & Pinups” Party - May 10th
Wednesday, April 30, 2008
If you are reading this, chances are you are among the best people we have met in Vancouver. The people who can make CrossFit a part of their lives, endure all of its hardships, keep their head on straight, keep their integrity entact and come back for more........ are some cool fucking people. If you have been able to do this.....it is time to drink, dance and celebrate with people like yourselves.
Being an open "Tribe" we encourage you to bring as many friends as you want. I know you all have many good people you call friends, I have met them....we have the facility to throw a great party so bring them with you...........with 3 conditions.
1) This is not some sissy "fitness" party....bring all the party "favors" you want.....just be able to handle and be responsible for what ever you ingest.
2) This is not a marketing party to solicit business....there will be no talk of "signing" up your friends.....if they want to join the tribe, they can e-mail us on Monday
3) Be accountable for the friends you bring: Bring the good people.....the people who are generally happy, well adjusted and fun to be around. Leave the dudes with small man syndrome, little dick disease, juice monkeys and women haters at HOME.
For you gals........do NOT invite the ladies who are
a) Dying for a boyfriend
b) Daddy's girls who have not earned anything in their lives
c) Chicks who think "he must be hitting on me if he is talking to me"
I love everyone.......and there is hope for everyone.......but these people can quickly ruin any party.....and we are responsible for the aftermath.
3) You must dress up in a costume.....your ass will be thrown out if you show up in jeans
Here is the theme
PINUPS (Think Marilyn Monroe, Lana Turner, Jane Mansfield...etc)
and SAILORS (any military uniform will work)
Best costume wins $100 (one for the pinup, one for the sailor)
We will have a keg, some shitty box wine, some Vodka for the ladies, a DJ and some appys. Bring what you need to get a vibe on and a little more for your sisters and brothers
Giddyup!!!! This is going to be the party of your young lives.
Here is a shout out to our favorite Emerg Doc Toddzilla. Zilla Has gone from over 350lbs down to a svelt 280 and probably put on 20 or 30 lbs of muscle in the process. The kid is a fantastic dude and we are looking to set up a private practice together......once he dips below 240 we are in business. Imagine never having to wait in line again to get your Oxycodone.
Along with Diet, and proper training (ie Crossfit), Sleep is one of the most important contributors to our health and Athletic Performance.
The Machine has been reading a very interesting book that takes a whole new look at how sleep affects our hormonal balance. Pretty cool stuff. Read below for the full scoop.
Personal Note: Costa Rica was awesome, and our surfing is now at a whole new level, look for a summer surf trip to Tofino. Can't wait to see you all at the "barn".
