Workout
Today is a CFHQ Rest Day. Since the Manhattan box is doing Burping Fran, come in to find out if we battle it out against midtown for WOD supremacy. Otherwise Court Wing will dish out his own prescription dosage of pain.
Free Beginner Class Today at 7pm

Some Grant Proposals for new scientific Research
The secret lives of magnetic fields. A cool and kind of creepy video representation.
CFNYC members go on a road trip.
Greg/Ryan - gymnastics is 7-8:30pm. still in?
I bypassed yesterday's weighted pullups out of respect for my OT but decided to sign on to Good Sam's Celebrity Angie Challenge.
Progress so far:
1 rep of an Angie round.
i'm gonna be a punk and flake on gymnastics tonight. still wanna go at some point though.
I would modify the Black Box version of these challenges:
Either take off on the official Rest Days or use the Rest Days to make up for any reps missed during the previous three-day cycle. The challenges would then run for 133 days, rather than 100 days.
Using this approach, more people are likely to actually complete two challenges per year, rather than start one, quit, start another, and quit again.
Sam is starting another challenge.

WTF? I thought the challenge was working our way up to a full Angie....
The official challenge is pull-ups. Angie's for bonus points ;)
Beginner's class tonight was very cool.
Doris, Graciella, Liz, Andrew and Jessica R.
Doris did awesome on the situps and jumping pullups, Liz was not expecting to have Doris beat her on the Jumping pullups. Well done.
Hope to see you guys next class.
