Ladies and Gents,
Great work this past weekend. I had a freaking blast. Really excited about the team too! We've got some strong dudes and some tough as nails girls! We're going to have a blast. For those that didn't compete, thanks everyone for showing up and supporting/judging. Ker, heal up. This is a time for you to learn how to train around an injury, rehab and maintain strength. Do I hear KB snatches with your good arm?
Team, keep training. Start a fresh cycle on the roids (kidding...but seriously...). We're going to rock this. Lots can be learned and gained in a month. We all have little things to work on to make us a very well rounded team....it might even be as little as over coming a fear of carrying your body weight on your back as a result of past traumatic experiences with that much weight on your back (ask John...he had good reason to walk hard on the 400m BW carry wod). Whatever it us, isolate it and include it or progressions into that movement into your every day routine until that weakness becomes a strength.
This I need to work on: Endurance through body weight exercises like Cindy, Murph, Maltz Challenge. Strength to complete JT in under 30 minutes. Shoulder presses, and other upper body movements. Please feel free tell me what you think I should work on too. I am open to critique and since I don't wod with you on a regular basis during the week, our exposure for me to work on things is limited to weekends.

Kit, great job this weekend. I really think you are built for constantly varied, functional movement and are just beginning your potential to be a beast. Same goes for John and Mike, you guys have a great base in strength, which I honestly think separates folks at the Games and competitions. While chippers are tough, anybody can get through them as long as they're in it mentally. Where folks will get separated are on things like max efforts or heavy wods. So concentrate on getting that strength up even more: both absolute strength and strength endurance will be critical. (1 rep max deadlift but also deadlift 315# 30 times over the course of a wod) also included will be overhead stuff like snatches and OHS...these will separate people simply because of comfort and experience, so make sure you can get these weights up
