"get your fucking ass to raleigh and dont come back"

5/9/2008 9:09:37 PM

You should show up before at 9. If they are like other crossfits, that's the free WOD.

Or, I guess that could fuck up your matches.

[Edited on May 9, 2008 at 10:53 PM. Reason : so scratch dat]

5/9/2008 10:52:35 PM

I didn't know that you're a Marine.

"Slegehammer and tractor tires???? river stones??? Sounds FUN Will you be investing in some barbells/bumperplates/plate loaded kettlebell handles? Do a search for "wright rubber crossfit." Decent bumperplates at a good price. It should take to their forums. [Edited on May 9, 2008 at 8:49 PM. Reason : if you are thinking outside, alone scratch the bumpers and do normal plates]"

I bet I can score a tractor tire for free. Don't know if I'll bother with the hammer and river rocks, though. I don't want my backyard to be TOO cluttered! I don't plan on buying any barbells unless I find them super cheap on craigslist or something. I would make them out of pipe and concrete, where i wouldn't mind leaving them under a shed outside and tossing them to the ground at the end of a set.


The biggest thing I can think of that would be an obstacle, besides buying a house or condo in the middle of town or a neighborhood rather than somewhere with enough space to do it, is insurance being a problem. i don't know if it would screw me on getting a homeowner's policy to be running a small business in the backyard, and i don't know if liability insurance and stuff would be cost prohibitive (i mean, it would be on a small scale, mostly with people i know, but still.)

Especially in eastern NC.

5/10/2008 1:25:55 AM

yep

and especially since i grew up in the middle of a bunch of tobacco farms and still know and/or are related to most of the people there!

5/10/2008 1:31:31 AM

I usually try to make it around the block a couple of times, but today I was too hot to take a hike, so I ended up sweating while spreading mulch and planting plants.

5/10/2008 1:34:49 AM

IF you are still looking at buying, you could go the large peice of land route and divide the property into 2 pieces.


If you are going to get the tire, you might as well hit it, too. It's not like sledges are that expensive/you could probably find one in an old barn (i know I can).

Hey Duke, do you jump after you squat or do you just stand up and squat back down?

[Edited on May 21, 2008 at 5:53 PM. Reason : When you do the burpees.]

5/21/2008 5:52:55 PM

When I do burpees, it's a fluid squat jump.

I'm not sure on cf's rx, you can find thier definition on their site.
