Workout comments: I was talking to Mike from Central Bucks Crossfit today and this workout basically is modelled after the "Fight Gone Bad" workout. This workout was one of the first few in the Crosfit era, given to a ultimate fighter who, after finishing the workout, said it was like a fight gone bad. The Fight Gone Bad workout consists of3 rounds of SDHP, Push Press, Wall Ball, Rower and Box Jumps. A good score is around 300 and Mike's best was 315. Since Malvern has a rower, maybe I'll give this workout a try soon. They are hosting this workout at CBC on Sunday at 11. If I didn't have tickets for the Phillies game, then I would defintely want to go to this.

PR for the 3RM in the bench press today. This follows a PR in the 3RM in the squat on Monday. Honestly, I was loading the bar without thinking and put 215 on the bar as if I were performing the squat, where I continuously move up in 20lb increments. I didn't realize I had 215 on the bar until the 3rd rep and by then it didn't matter. So I figured I'd go for it, adding 220 and then 225 to the bar. 225 was a struggle, but I got pressed out.
