Nick and I just finished putting the magical touches on the first 3 WOD’s for Saturday. These workouts are a compilation of all things FitCamp and will be a blast to do and watch. We have never done these workouts in class so that should level the playing field for all athletes. Also, keep in mind that if you see something in the workout that you think “OMG, I can’t do that!” there will be a number of options that will be covered on Saturday morning to ensure all athletes (recreational and competitive) will be able to finish all of these workouts. This event is meant to be a positive experience for all so don’t stress about a thing. Just show up, work hard to your own ability and have fun! The worst that can happen is you get that much fitter!
Corinne, after a job well done!

WOD 4: Mystery Workout (The final workout will be announced the morning of the Throwdown. Wait until you see what this workout entails… you will be talking about this one for months and won’t believe what we came up with!)
Lower back pain from deadlifting 75%of my body weight and doing 75 thrusters as fast as I can—awful! Bruises from running with a 25lb plate–painful. Seeing Patrick rolled up on the floor in the fetal position after thrusters—-priceless! Nice job Pat!!
Too funny! Thanks for sharing in all the pain…I mean fun. You kicked some serious butt on Saturday! great job!
Too bad I get to miss this fun. It sounds like a blast. I will be golfing at Townsend Ridge for the St Anna Golf Tournament. Wish I could be there to compete.
