The Future of Fitness has arrived you say? Flex Nimbo it is. Start with two minute rounds and build up to four minute rounds, wife is going to LOVE this!

"It's nothing a little icy hot can't fix" is my new catch phrase. I'm so making a movie :)

Trying to buy some almonds at Trader Joes:
“…but the clerk said they were out of stock indefinitely and then he tried to push those ungodly cinnamon-sugar coated almonds on me. He said they were “yummy”. I snapped bro! I told him that his childish preference for cinnamon-sugar coated almonds can most certainly explain his current physical state. In contrast, I was a grown man and an elite athlete following the Crossfit Functional Fitness Regime - My body was a finely tunes primal machine - My internal insuline response system is hypersensitive to sugar induced glucose spikes – so therefore I was going to be buying his candy coated almonds. I had no interest in taking that sugar crash course ride again.” - Paleo

I'll be happy to run outside when we figure out how I can keep my feet from getting dirty.

November 5, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterEmily

November 5, 2009 | Unregistered Commenterbrad
2:50, 3:02, 2:56, 3:06 Thanks to Brian for keeping the pace.

Runner's High cannot be attained insuch a short distance.

Not to sure what to make of my running today.

Felt like I was running from an Immigration Officer the first 800 and dropped a 3:20.07
Second 800 was a breeze, a strong breeze in my face the entire lap and I kicked home for a 3:50.65
Took a good hard look at my self and decided to obliterate my previous time for the 3rd 800... 3:48.33
Last 800 was a group one and I always feel I do my best work in a group setting 3:36.69

Not to sure if there is such a thing but it was good running weather out there today. We have some fast runners in our GBCCF community. I am not one however.

brad, if it rains, liberally apply ICY HOT
November 5, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterLee C
thanks for bringing up that sore subject katrina. now my feelings are hurt!
November 5, 2009 | Unregistered Commenterbrad
is the ICY FREAKING HOT supplied by get built or do we have to get our own?
November 5, 2009 | Unregistered Commenterbrad
The only way you get a runner's high is to run behind a truck expelling massive amounts of exhaust.

passed out a bunch of free weeks to people today, and asked them to drop by our website. sorry for the editing FOLKS...gotta keep it inviting to everyone.

Have you been watching Up in Smoke Poole?

Brad - What kind of Protein drinks are you on? You've been "kicking it" lately even after a brief sabbatical! You da man!! Do we need a blood test?
Poole & Travis - Thanks for ya'lls continued Humor on the Get Built Web-Site! You keep me from having to do sit-ups and crunches as the laughter is working on core stomach muscles without much effort!

And Travis - I figured out how to scale today's WOD! - I just did not do it!
November 5, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterRobby
robby you could have been a winner today. wheelhouse wod for you. me, not so much. i have lots of excuses but not many good times. broke down to something like 2:56, 3:02, 3:06, and 3:09. (have to check the hard copy but pretty close on these times). hated it. it felt like doing 4 frans with a few minutes rest in between. this wod was completely stupid. i can not stress enough, #$@! this wod. what a load of crap. this wod hurt. i'm going to the doctor about it. expect a lawsuit.
