Getting closer to moving in to the new place...Really nervous and excited about it all working out.  It has always been a dream to own a gym and more recently it has been a goal to own a gym that produces results and is just not your run of the mill cardio fairground.  As I look back at my relatively short fitness background, I used to go to the gym, do biceps one day and chest the next, once in awhile doing something relative to legs and back.  Mostly machine work just enough so that I was not a flabby wonder.  Now having gone down the path I have, I realize there is so much more.  Yesterday, did a workout that was pretty tough. For me, it was two parts: The first part was:
10 min AMRAP
squat cleans @ 135# with 4 toes to bar on the top of each minute.

Rest 5 minutes

The second part was 3 rounds for time:
25 Kettlbell swings 70#
25 burpees.

I saved a little too much for part B.  Even though I was dead by the end, I should have put up better numbers on the part A.
On a side note, I re-rolled my ankle today after rolling it last week.....Makes me not want to play basketball ever again....

New Spot

Box Elder Elite Fitness will be moving.  The are a variety of reason for the move, one so we have more space and can accommodate more people.  Another would be to have a place for my wife to park her car and not have weights dropping during nap time.  It will also be a place where a higher level of training can take place.  Lastly, my neighbor will not have to call the cops anymore because people are lifting weights in my garage.  It would be awesome to have more people join for the workouts.  People that know about what we do, often say things like I couldn't do that, or it is too hard.  My answer would be anybody can do it, just ask the super-fit ladies that have been working out in the mornings! And "if it were easy, everyone would do it."  I really believe that this type of training is one of the best routes you can go for a high level of fitness and better quality of life.  So officers Glover, Rackham and Calchera stop procrastinating and get in here.
