NewsLetter is super! First no sugar now the peanut butter!!! Great info!
Andy
Love the newsletter. Go Chantal! I want to try that shoulder stretch today…
Jane
The newsletter was a good read this month.
Chantal, you’ve done so much in a short amount of time. Your story is inspiring. 😀
I LOVE my peanut butter! Waaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhh!!! 🙁
About the newsletter and warming up… I just wanted to send some props out to Joel for having the most elaborate warm up I’ve ever seen. It’s impressive. Maybe when I’m his age I’ll be as diligent with my warm-up 😉
Patrick – His warm-up is specific to whatever he’s training that day so it changes, but it’s always thorough.
It takes the old man a looong time to warm-up!
Janine- Cft Bathurst
HEY!! that’s the “Janine” wod!!
Kevin
You bet it is!
Heather (Mum)
Great newsletter. Chantal – sign up for the games. You would do so well.
MC
I have to cancel my 5h30 class Kevin, I’m not really sore but I have zero energy in me, I though it will get better through the day but it is keep getting worst.
Awesome newsletter Kevin!! Chantal you are great!!
Patrick
I feel the same way. Not too sore but completely useless. Tired back, tired everything hahah.
Darren
Kevin – Great job on the newsletter, as always.
Chantal
Thanks everybody for the nice comments… You’re guys are Awesome!!
Sonia
Great newsletter… and I agree with others… Chantal you need to sign up for the games 🙂

20 SDHP (did pull ups instead because of low back issues)
20 jumping squats
20 pushups

Jeff
Thanks Gillyon! I even had 7 year old spectator that kept asking tons of questions… “Why do you need to go so fast?” … “How to you jump like that?” … etc, etc. 🙂
Great push everyone! This is a toughie. I’m going to massage my shoulders with peanut butter.

I did this WOD in Oct (in my 1st week of Cross Fit) Was able to knock 1:15 off that time.
Newsletter is a good read. Here I thought Chantal has been Cross Fitting for a much longer time. You should definitely compete at the games.
As for giving up peanut butter, now that’s just wrong! I’m all for a healthier lifestyle, but dragging my butt out of bed every morning at 5:30 is commitment enough for this gal.
Gillyon
GREAT PR!
Owen
Good info in he news letter…If you do a stretching class/demo…I’m in
Jeff
Great idea! …. a stretching class.
Marcel
I’ve been trying to get Kevin to run a deep breathing class…maybe he could combine the two!
Patrick
I’d be up for that
Ed
I like that IDEA!
Kevin L
Hey Chantel those are some pretty impressive stats! i should be careful you’re gonna out perform me soon! 😀 haha. I love reading the journals everytime they come out but I’m always afraid that something delicious is going to take a beating and this time is no different…guess I just purchased my last bottle of PB *sigh*.
P.S. Ed you need to keep those fingers wrapped around the bar! Safety first haha!
Ed
yeah yeah, Bad habit for pullups I know haha
Marcel
