Row, row, row your boat...FAST!


Sorry about Friday's post...internet refused to cooperate?!?

Not to worry, here is Friday's post, today!
Anne started off the morning, and although she didn't feel at peak capacity, she refused to listen to that lazy little voice in hear and instead just turned up(NOTE: this is the secret of success - turning up!) She completed a solid 9 rounds of Thursday nights WOD and she was extremely proud by the end, sp was I. Anne, great work, enjoy your time off.

Tricia was in soon after and also completed the same WOD and also completed 9 rounds. Tricia, like Anne, is a trooper and has consistently turned up for over a year now. Tricia, your company is always welcomed and even more so is your commitment and willingness to challenge yourself - thank you!

Dynamic Duo were in - need I say more! Of course, they were in to break records today and that they did. Their challenge was to beat their 500m records (Frank holds the overall mens record here at GarageGYM - 1:50) and Liz started them off. Last time Liz was in she wiped over 10 seconds off her old PB and today she did it again. Liz went from her old time of 2:23.9 to her new record of 2:12.7-amazing! She even completed three more rounds after the row of 30 reps of Bench press with 20kg.
Frank
, well done, you beat your long standing record and set a new one of 1:48.8. You already were untouchable, now see them try and catch you. Frank rowed extremely well today, so much so that there was nothing left in him after - a true sign of his character, not saving anything and giving it his all. You make us all proud Frank.

And, last but not least - Gulnaz was in, again, another one who has increased her workouts per week, today she did the extremely difficult overhead barbell squat with a heavy load of 20kg which she did for 7 ournds of 6 reps each round. Well done Gulnaz. Keep it up and you'll amaze everyone, but most importantly - yourself!

Thanks for the great day of wokouts everyone.

P.S. I'm writing this post on a Sunday, the only day off this week as I was busy filming a short film on Saturday.(for those who dont know, as well as being one of the best personal trainers in Melbourne, I'm also a pretty good actor as well!) Unfortunately it was not completed on time and I agreed to finish the shoot on Monday. This means I wont be taking you through your gruelling workouts on Monday, but almost as tough as me is Mr Neim who will. So no changes for Monday - just turn up ready for the same tough sessions!
