Great job to everyone who took a crack at 12.4.  Karen (150 wallballs), is awful on its own, let alone adding an additional 90 double unders!… and for all of us “normal” humans, AMRep muscleups! Thank you Headquarters for that lovely gem!  There were some amazing worldwide scores, Neal Maddox got 53 wallballs, ON HIS 2nd ROUND! Kristen Clever got through all 30 muscle ups! Insane! 

Closer to home, our gym put up some great numbers as well. Top men and women scores:

Paul D’Orazi- 252, that’s 12 muscle ups!

Coach Jonathan Burns- 250

Coach Trent Breakie- 248

Katie Ziegler (Coach Ziggy)- 242

Coach Meagan/Mandy/Cami- 240

That’s a team total of 1472, which puts us in 19th place overall!  Out of 120 teams, that is not too shabby! There were definitely some honorable mentions, including Marissa with 85 double unders (235), Braden with 2 muscle ups (242), and everone who got PRs on their Karen time!

Make sure to check out the photos on facebook… there are some good ones!

What will this week bring? Post guesses/predictions below!

PERSONAL TIME WITH A TRAINER!

After speaking with a few of our athletes, I have noticed that I have gotten behind on everyone’s lives. I believe this has to do with many things, time being one of them, but also because the gym has grown and I just have not been able to keep up with the growth. So here is my proposal:

I would LOVE the opportunity to meet with each and every one of you for a 10-15 minute one-on-one discussion. During this meeting, we will be able to discuss the following:

- What is happening in your life that is effecting your proformance at CFCDA

- What goals do you have and how we as trainers can help you achieve them

- What are some things that we as trainers and as a gym can improve upon to make your CFCDA experience better

I will be posting a calendar of appointment times and dates in the gym this afternoon. Please DO NOT BE SHY! See this as a chance to get free one-on-one time with your trainer and hopefully your friend. If you have a request to speak to a specific trainer, please let me know and I will more than gladly set up an appointment.

IT’S TM TIME

Quick shrimp curry

This meal came together quickly on a weeknight with some frozen shrimp and other ingredients I had on hand.  Total cooking and prep time was about 30 minutes.

Quick shrimp curry

2 lbs cooked shrimp (if your shrimp are frozen, defrost them first)

1 to 1.5 lbs green beans, rinsed and sliced in halves or thirds

1 onion, diced

2 tbsp coconut oil

3 tbsp green curry powder

2 tbsp + canned coconut milk* (see below)

Steam the greenbeans until they are tender but still slightly crisp and set them aside.  Melt half of the coconut oil in a large saute pan, then add the onions.  Cook the onions over medium heat until they are translucent, add the remaining oil (if needed) and the curry powder, and stir until the powder is well incorporated. At this point, add the green beans back to the pan and add your coconut milk.

*The can of coconut milk I used had separated, so I used two heaping tablespoons from the fat that had separated to the top of the can. If your can doesn’t separate use about 1/4 to 1/3 cup of full-fat coconut milk. You can use as much as you like, but I was going for a sauce instead of a soup or broth.

When the coconut milk has come to a slight simmer, add the cooked shrimp and continue cooking just until the shrimp are heated through. Salt and pepper to taste.
