In honor of a glorious day, Spencer and I get to shave our beautiful man manes.
How many people ripped their hands today?
I forgot my time.... 23:57? (Somebody at the box check the board for me please.) @115#
I ripped my hand on hps #1 of round 7... shaved them Saturday, too. Could have been much worse, I guess.
In honor of "beard," my favorite Chuck Norris fact:
Chuck Norris was the fourth Wiseman. He brought baby Jesus the gift of “beard”. Jesus wore it proudly to his dying day. The other Wisemen, jealous of Jesus’ obvious gift favoritism, used their combined influence to have Chuck omitted from the Bible. Shortly after all three died of roundhouse kick related deaths.
fml.
No alarm clock this morning. I was even late to work. Have to take a friend to the airport tomorrow morning. So I will see you roosters Wednesday!
24:00 at 75 lbs
still sick. not fun.
Chase, how much would it take for you to keep the beard indefinitely?
I needed another rest day! May try to make this up later in
the week though.
I feel like the shaving of the beard should be a spectacle kind like the slap...i dint even remember what chase and spence look like under there!
23:39 @ 115# & 10 reps w/ band
Blood - No can do, I got orders from another that the beard WILL be coming off today, or else.
Erin - You are right we should have, but unfortunately Spence and I are so sick of them we just couldnt wait any longer haha. Mine is coming off in pieces though, right now its a manstache that goes down past my chin.
23:13@35# and 10 reps/ red band
Erin - brilliant idea!
21:50 at 75 lbs
That WOD is awesome- the shuttle is just a little kicker that takes your breath away. No ripped hands but close (fortunately I worked on them this past week).
Damien chasing Tyler down-classic!
17:55, heavily modified until my right arm is back in the game... quads took a beating though!
7 front squats at 135#
100m run
10 GHD situps
Chase you are mistaken, everything has a price, granted it pays less for a manstache.
Blood, Chase: Make a fund raiser; after 3 months beard growth, blackmail the beard into existance....say $1,000/month/beard. Pick a charity for hair loss or something more significant and see what kind of raise CFDC over the course of a year.....Chase and SP would make $2K/month. $25K per year of beard will get you some press for CFDC and, more importantly, get some charity in the community. FTW
Behind Chuck Norris' beard, there is not a chin, only a third fist. I'm waiting to see if the same is true for Spence or Chase, although the Russian revolutionary look they were sporting this morning was kinda neat.
25:06, 75#, yellow band/10. Pullups kill me.
And yeah, I took that bump from Tyler a little seriously. :)
21:21 w/ 95#s and 10PUs per round. 1st time no band on PUs (more baby steps). Finally got 25DUs yesterday and set PR on 500M Row 1:36.3.
Damn Radar!! You are becoming a beast. Just crossin' sh*t off that list. Nice!
23:20 @ 95#
Could we get some sidewalk chalk back in the box? I think I might have done 8 rounds, my brain doesn't work well under duress
22:23 (95# / Ylw band x 10)
My pullups were pretty weak
25:06 w/53# and 12 reps w/blue band
Blog police please excuse this not athletics related post but I have some good news that I wanted to share.
Just talked to Angie. She got her visa. She should be back soon.
We are waiting on the US Consulate to return her passport - maybe Tuesday and then airlines willing she might be back here before Sectionals.
Can't begin to tell you how relieved we are. Wanted to share our joy.

Awesome news Z!!!
Congrats Sam Z that is GREAT NEWS!!!!!!!!!
That is fantastic Sam!!
Awesome Z!!! That is great news!!
Thanks all.
Evidently she gets her passport back for 6 working days. So looks like she will be coming back same night I get back from Tulsa.
I'd love for her to get back b4 sectionals but it is going to be tough. At least I'm getting her back.
Whew!
Z, thanks, but who cares about some stinkin DUs, the topic today is Angie! Congrats to you both! I look forward to meeting her soon.
Cheers, Z!
Nice Sam. Great news! Congrats brother.
ALRIGHT SAM!
Z, awesome news buddy!!!
Congrats Z
20:30 @ 95# and 15 (10 PU on rounds 5,6,& 7)
My left hand took a beating today. On round 5, I ripped a hole in my left pinky. On round 6, I tore off the callous on my left middle finger. On round 7, I tore another hole on my left pinky. Please no pull-ups for a while!
Congrats Sam!
Here is a happy video aside: Paleo VS. Vegans!!!

dang.....i was about to post an inappropriate snatch but i can't now.
finally, z can stop wearing angie's clothes. also, when we having a welcome back party?
Yea Z! So happy for you guys! Hope she's back for sectionals but either way, so excited!
Hooray, SamZ!!!! I'm so happy for y'all, and I'm happy for us, too, because we'll be getting Angie back. :) Think we should do karaoke again to celebrate!!
Yes!!
I suggest a welcome back Angie and congrats Karaoke party to all our regional qualifiers post Tulsa.
I will work with coaches to make sure this happens. Plus I need redemption as I did not sing the last time.
It will be large. It will be crunk.
Congrats Z and Angie! That's great news.
Z, DY-NO-MIIITE.
SamZ, that's great news. Can't wait.
Who from our gym is going to the sectionals? How many people will be competing in each group, men and women? How many spots move on?
Z- I'll organize the dance off!
Break Dance Karaoke.....
Awesome, Sam. So happy for you guys!!!
Great news for you two! Look forward to meeting her.
Samz- That is killer!!! So estatic
21:36 rx'd this workout is no joke glad it isn't c2b
I am having typing issues back at work from this one
Break Dance Karaoke?! I'm in! Hopefully this will be after i get back from London...I don't wanna miss this!!
I gotta say it was a good day! Z getting his lady back...awesome news man!!
And Chase and SP get to shave...it just doesn't get any better!
Erik? No CTB? Has there been a mid day WOD Change? I think the glory of the day and "THE BEARD" deserves the hardest / strictest standards possible.
I stand by CTB...easy coming from the one armed guy that doesn't have to do the workout. Sorry guys.
It is regular pu I DIDN't mean to spoil the surpise if there was suppose to be one but I am not sure if this would be do able c2b in under 30 mins, if you consider this a challange, go for it I will bow down before you if you prove me wrong.

18:41
115# muscle snatch
C2B on rounds 1-5, then Will pointed out to me it said "No chest to bar today" on the whiteboard
That was a mid-day WOD change. The C2B version is titled "By The Beard Of Zeus", and the non C2B version is just, "The Beard"
Bobby-Your comment has been found unworthy, so No!
I was confused...thought your comment was was for me, Bobby...my answer still would have been NO!
20:22 w/ 95# and 10 pu and ripped hands.
26:36
53# HPS
15 pu's first round then 10 after I saw how long it took me. Still very slow even with scaling. Big props to y'all who rx'd this, especially with c2b!
Congrats Z!!!
15:50 Rx'd Unbroken. Rest is included. I owe it to the power of the MANstache.
Today was a good day.

JULZ GOT MOVES!!
there, i said it.
Finally...
22:35 at 115#. That was a mental battle.
End of a bloody Monday. Got to work at about 4:15 a.m. figuring that I'd finish my project just after lunch and maybe hit up the 4:00 WOD then smooth sailing the rest of the week. Boy was I wrong. Being sent to D.C. tomorrow, and I don't get to come home till Saturday. Guess I'll have to work through the bodyweight WOD list.
Z - AWESOME NEWS. Can't wait for the welcome back party.
17:26 @ 105#
