Dang it, I almost threw my lifting shoes in my backpack this morning. Ah well, conditions will not always be optimal, but the WOD goes on!
To Rob, yes, I am in for the Games Open, but waiting to see if they actually fix the links on their policies that you are required to check to affirm that you’ve read and agree to.
Signed-Up. Disclaimer: I am not a lawyer and I did not read the policies. But i think they say, no cheating (no rep means no rep, so don’t count it), no banned substances (i.e. braun, bonds, and a-rod got caught, so will you), and lastly they own you (all of you, your face, your voice, any wardrobe malfunction, and you may end up on you tube even if you dont want to be)
MPH provides serious fitness for everyone, group training and first class coaching. Quality and effort matter. We do more with less---space, equipment, time. We use functional movements (squats, deadlifts, presses, pull-ups, pushups, sit-ups, gymnastics, Olympic lifts, running, rowing), combine them infinitely and perform them in short, intense and effective workouts. Ours is the most professional and comprehensive coaching, and the hardest, most rewarding workout. We believe in the physical, collective and collaborative strength of our community, safety, rational nutrition and that human capacity knows no limits. We support and take care of each other, and we have fun doing it.
Note a neutral head, horizontal chin & minimal vertical displacement--no bounding or calf action. Being the fastest takes technique & power. 2 weeks ago
Timely inspiration: http://t.co/HY1Vdl30. See support pt @ impact, integrated midline, neutral shoulders (despite arm drive, until fatigue). 2 weeks ago
Dear 6a: It's lonely at the top. Heavy are our heads that wear the crowns. 1 month ago

Fair point, although as a lawyer, I thought you would be like me and prefer not to read what you’re signing!
02/02/2012 at 10:51
Rob I was relying on your thorough review.
02/02/2012 at 11:16
I decided I was being too picky, and that I would sign up regardless. Registration complete!
02/02/2012 at 09:39

I’m hoping bacon and tequila aren’t on the list of banned substances. Although I do feel that they give me a competitive advantage.
02/02/2012 at 14:15
I’m in!
02/02/2012 at 15:44
I’m in! All signed up!
