Thank you Ben and Heather for creating and fostering a wonderful environment where we all feel comfortable and safe. CFNE is a special place where we grow both mentally and physically. Here’s to the first 5 years and many more to come!
CFNE Day One Video
Opening Day: DNF. This is a first for me. Made it through most of the 2nd round and stopped. Back was hurting and I decided it was smarter to stop than to continue (really though, I physically couldn’t). Tough mental shift for me. Kinda bummed, but kinda glad because it was right choice.
Happy anniversary Ben and Heather and CFNE!!
Same issue for me. You made the right decision. Your body is talking to you and I know its hard to listen. We need to remind ourselves to be smart and we will be back sooner than later.
Backs sometimes like to give you a little heads up. As I say in my lecture listen to it now and heal faster or later and heal longer. Nice restraint
totally. I had to be gentle for the past 6 weeks and finally feel better….I too kept telling myself it is for the long haul!!!
Happy 5 years Ben, Heather and all the great coaches and members who make CFNE what it is.
Opening day: 15:59
Happy anniversary CFNE!!!!
Opening Day: 15:28 with mods for back (10# WB with squats to parallel/just above parallel, 65# push press for thrusters, 26# KB)
Happy anniversary CFNE! So grateful to have found this amazing place.
Opening Day: DNF
got about 11 minutes of the stimulus
Not the best start to the year. First Flu, now a new issue with the lower back. Think its form the heavy DL’s I did last weekend. Worried about how this will affect my ability to compete in the Open.
Very frustrating! 🙁 But I am in this for the long haul so trying to keep my chin up. Need to modify for a few weeks.
Best of luck to the athletes competing this weekend and congrats to CFNE!
Happy 5 years CFNE! Somehow I miss this every year. Maybe I’ll make it up soon.
I’ll be MIA for a few days with wife out of town… see everyone next week.
24:50 (14# WBs, blue band PUs, 75# thrusters)
Glad to make it under 25 min cap! Appreciate Cheryl’s tips on thrusters – wouldn’t be able to do 45 of them w/o the tips! Also my thanks to the 7:30pm class for cheering at the end!!!
Opening Day: 18:47 rx
Opening Day: 15:28 with tons of mods (ring rows for PU, med ball cleans at #14, 30# Russian KBS, 85# FS for thrusters)
Thanks for all the help modifying so I still got a great workout in, Coach Kev! And happy anniversary, CFNE! I love to think about how many people have walked through the doors, become BETTER in so many ways, and then carried that new attitude/kindness/work ethic/integrity out into the world to share with others. Here’s to many more years!
that video is so OG
