Team Competition Cuts Back on Work Productivity

Monday, August 3;

I don't know whether it's my love for the 6am or my buring desire to win that has kept me glued to FB today. It's been kind of sad. I have gotten things done at work today, but I've been so distracted. Today was the big team competition day at CFOT. We have some scary gamers in our class. Metcon murderers and just freaky strong people too.


Here's how the workout is setup. There are 5 different stations: row, Push press, Snatch, Pullup and box jump. The barbells are 45lb for women and 95lb for men. Very manageable weights. There are five rounds with five minutes of work in each round. There is one minute rest between rounds. Tally each rep (cal. on the row) for each individual station. Classes will be compared by number of reps at each station. The class that has the highest number of reps at the most stations wins the title of the Strongest Class at CFOT and bragging rights until the next competition. Not that we needed this to brag.


We've gone through 6 classes so far. 5:15am, 6am, 6:45am, 7:30am, 9am and 12:30pm. Right now, the 6am is in the lead with the high scores in two categories. We still have the 5pm, 5:45pm and 6:30pm. We'll see how the world spins later tonight!!


The mighty 6:00 am takes the day! The final scores are below:
1. 0600 w/17
2. 1745 w/20
3. 1700 w/23
4. 0515 w/24
5. 0645 w/26
6. 1230 w/28
7. 0730 w/28
8. 1830 w/28
9. 0900 w/31

Must admit, I'm watching FB quite closely today also.

Liked your call-out on time during the last minute with the weight vest on!!
