No… We’re Not Getting Ready For World War 3…

A Lot Of Gyms Have “Weight Vest Wednesdays”…
Well… At RainCross… Every Thursday… We Have What We Call…
“Tactial Thursday”…
It’s Amazing What An Extra Few Pounds Added To Your Body Can Do… It’ Amazing What It Does To Your Breathing… To Your Heart Rate… To Your State Of Mind…
And… Bonus… You Look Pretty Bad Ass Wearing It!!!

All The Movements I Program On Thursday’s Are “Safe” Enough To Wear A Vest…
“Safe” Doesn’t Mean It Won’t Almost Kill You… You CAN Go Really Fast On Today’s Work Out & End Up With The Taste Of Blood In Your Mouth For The Rest Of The Day… And Yes… I’m Talking About Me!!! Again… I Like Numbers… For Today’s WOD… I Wore A Vest & Went “Rx’d”… I Finished The Box Jumps/Thrusters/Pull Ups Portion @ 5:49 Including The Weight Change … The Box Jumps/C&Js/Box Jumps Portion @ 9:04 Including The Weight Change… And The Push Ups/DeadLifts/Box Jumps Portion With A Finsh Time Of 13:22 … But The Taste Of Blood… That Lasted ALL DAY!!!
Side Note… If You’re Reading This Now… Which… Obviously You Are… Go Ahead And Keep Scrolling Down To My Little Rant About “Numbers” I Put Up For Wednesday’s Post… For Those Of You New To RainCross… Later This Week I’m Going To Put Up A Lil’ Post About WHY I’m So Obsessed With Numbers/Times… It’ll Also A Good Read For Our “Veteran” RainCross Athletes To Open Your Eyes To What I Expect Of You…
Anyways…
All The Movements I Program On Thursday’s Are “Safe” Enough To Wear A Vest…
And “Smart” Enough To Wear A Vest… I’m Not Going To Ask You To Establish A 1 Rep Max Snatch While Wearing A Vest…
And Don’t Feel Bad If You Don’t Have A Vest To Wear… Trust Me… The WOD’s Still Gonna Suck!!!
Last “And”… DON’T DROP EMPTY BARBELLS! DON’T DROP EMPTY BARBELLS!! DON’T DROP EMPTY BARBELLS!!! And Also… DON’T DROP A BARBELL LOADED UP WITH JUST 10LBS BUMPER PLATES!!!

Guest Or Paying Athlete… I’ll Ask You To Stop Your Work Out Right There & Then… And By “Ask”… I Mean Your Work Out Is Over… I Don’t Go To Your House & Drop Your Glassware On The Ground…
Day 4 Of Guest Week!!!
