Great coaching Kevin! Good work 6am crew!
Amanda
What a great newsletter article from Shane! And I love all the pictures of him!
My favorite part: “First wod: met Pukie. Kept on running.” Little did we know at the time, that would be a sign of great things to come for us at CFM with Shane!
And congrats on your 500 classes, I really feel honored to have you as a member at our gym! Always positive and helpful and encouraging.. and let’s not forget beastly in strength and skills! 🙂
Shane Hayes
Thanks Amanda, that means alot to me!
I truly do love this place and all its members! It’s like a motivational spa, where the relaxation comes from completely exhausting myself during the wod’s!
Haha @ the picture! Love it! Congratulations Shane. and love the article! So fun having you around – I know I’m very very far from comparing myself to you, but you push me to work harder every time 🙂
Great newsletter Shane! You are always inspiring and motivating! You push me whether you know it or not 🙂 Competing with you at the beatdown and the mayhem have been some of my favorite memories at CFM!

I kinda like 15 rep warm-ups. Just sayin’.
OHS x5
135-145-155-155-155 (snatched all)
WOD Rx’d

Completely unbroken with snatched reps. Needless to say, I loved this workout. Quicker to the bar should make sub-4 doable.
Doubles were a challenge (especially when you start off standing on your rope!) but I was able to string together 20+ a couple times. Wasn’t able to get the OHS unbroken but was otherwise ok.

Great newsletter! Awesome article Shane, CFM would not be the same without you!

These felt super heavy today.
Thanks for the tips on shoulder position tonight Kevin. I’ll keep working on that.
WOD 4 rounds
50 DU’s
10 OHS. Scaled my 65% down to 55#
Time: 13:18
DUs took all the good out of me tonight. The first 2 rounds I did 25 DUs then 75 singles because I was geting 1 du then whipping myself. Last 2 rounds I told myself to suck it up and did all 50 DUs. This literally brought me to tears. Little embarassed about that. I’ve never cried because of a wod, but it happened tonight. May as well own it.
Thanks for putting my bar away Heather.
Sorry for the tears.
A new WOD day tomorrow
Frankie
great job on the WOD Vanesssa! OHS looked great, damn double unders!!!
Ohhh my beauty I’m so sorry I didn’t know you were struggling with the wod, I wish I had checked in on you during it!!
If it helps, I’ve cried many times in wods. And today I threw a tantrum in front of some children. I win for being a shitty person today. 🙂
Tomorrow is a new day. You’ll get the next double under wod. ❤️
…oh, those DUs are nasty. Keep cranking them out anyway Vanessa. 🙂
Tania
Good job on sticking with them for the last 2 rounds! You are rocking the WOD’s, tomorrow is a new WOD that you will crush. DU are so frustrating for me too. They will come!
HA! The girl who cried like a baby at the Open clearly has nothing to say about this post
Baukje
Aaw! I thought I was the only one with a terrible WOD! I couldn’t get my DU’s! I blame it on the rope, but I’m not sure for sure why I couldn’t get them. Round 1, I made it to 20 somehow, but it took me forever!!! I didn’t stick it through and switched to singles after. I was not happy! I was very disappointed in myself and my DU 🙁 Glad you shared this, because I know how you feel <3

Amanda
You did so awesome tonight, didn’t stop moving ONCE!!!
Really great job! I was so excited today when I heard you had signed up!
First round of DUs I got 39 unbroken & that’s a 12 rep pr…however they went downhill real quick after that haha but did all OHS unbroken to try to compensate.
Went a little lighter then my actual % for OHS today because my right shoulder has been sore again.
I wish I loved OHS. I find them really difficult and just terrible.
Maybe I’ll learn to love them eventually

10 OHS (35# – stayed light today)
So, I need to get my own rope! 🙁 I didn’t get to 2 min of skipping, because I was looking for a long enough rope. The lack of practice ended up causing a very frustrating WOD. I struggled to get any DU in the first 2 min. When I did get them, they were not pretty and not consistent… and very frustrating. I spent a lot of time to get 20 the first round. I decided to switch to singles then, instead of doing 30. Second round was even more frustrating. I couldn’t get DU!!! I was so mad. I decided to just got with singles after trying for a few minutes. I’m sure it was clear I was not happy with my results after this WOD!

This WOD will pass. You will rock the next one. If we didn’t have a bad WOD now and then, we wouldn’t appreciate the ones we have success at.
