Respect your Dojo


Brian Hack | 07/04/2012 | 7

Ok real quick. You’ll notice a few things moved around the gym in hopes of keeping things more ascetically pleasing. No but really, we need to start stacking plates better. This isn’t just because I’m OCD about this stuff, but also because it keeps the equipment in good working order. Every time thinner plates get jammed between heavier ones, it wears them down; hence the reason some are deformed or ballooned out. Weights, Bars, Abmats, Boxes, etc. should all be placed back exactly where we found them.
Why do I mention this? It helps build discipline, believe it or not. If we neglect the little things there’s a chance we will take that into our workouts and “miscount” reps, or fail to meet the range of motion standards. The more we build discipline the better it will translate into other things in our life. SO, in the words of your badass bartender, Andrew, “Respect yo Dojo!”
Also, it’s July and you know what that means! More goals. If you have nailed ones from June, please post them to comments with strong conviction! And next time you’re in class post em for July!

    FS: 165#

    WOD: 4 even @95#

    Ugh. I was not friends with this WOD today. Sometimes you hit the WOD, and sometimes the WOD hits you.

  2. Cal says:

    front squat: 125# which might be a pr? I haven’t been able to get my 2 and 3 rep maxes above 132#, and now my 5RM is catching up…

    wod: 5+2 at 65#.

  3. Ben S says:

    FS: 185#, I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again – must front squat more!
    WOD: 6+3 Rx.

    Way to push hard today, guys. Great 12pm class!

  5. damien says:

    FS: 225#

    WOD: 4+2 @105#. Probably should have done less weight. Failed at least 4 times in the fifth round.

  6. Harry says:

    Front Squat 225#

    WOD – 6+3 @ 115# and Box HSPUs

  7. Jaime says:

    Front Squat: 105# PR
    WOD: So much scaling. 8 rounds with just the hang squat clean (45#) and a box to scale the HSPU.

    Thank you for the encouragement today Yosh!
