After losing the Fran off, Colm foolishly attempts a Muscle Off
Butter vs Margarine: The Showdown – Stephan Guyenet
Heavy Weights Don’t Bulk Women! – CrossFit West Santa Cruz





Quiet today. Post Bank Holiday blues?
I remember when we used to get 20-30 comments a day on this thing. Ah memories…
Perhaps no one can lift their arms to the keyboard after yesterday?
I’m with Eve on this one.
I think you hit the nail on the head when you called it a Franover, Colm.
I don’t have any DOMS, and I’m not sore, but I just feel empty!!
When can we expect to see the video of this thing? I wasnt up early enough to see the main event.
Bank Holiday!! Not over here, luck of the Irish.
You made any decisions on the CF Velocity Invitational yet as registration closes on the 1st November. Fergus, Kempie and some guys from Manchester and Liverpool are going.
Eve, lol you’re prob right. My body’s just not happy with me and is coming up with new ways of letting me know.
Paddy, I’m converting the video now, and I’ll upload it to our Facebook page after that. I’ll have it as the video on the site tomorrow.
Scott, I can’t make it but touch wood we’ll send over someone.
Paddy,
There’s a video of my Fran @ youtube.com/hanleycore
You can see Colm’s pull ups and some of his thrusters on it too.
The actual CFI vid should be good craic. The pre-match interview and post-match Franover should be funny.
Cheers lads
I reckon Eve hit the nail on the head. I like the articles, both interesting reads. Marianne clearly pre-empted the first one by opting for butter in her cupcakes, wise move.
Ouch ! Ouch ! Ouch ! Had very sore shoulder and neck muscles from WOD on Saturday. Better today. Hadn’t a hope of doing Fran cos of it.
Well done everyone that did Fran yesterday.
Damn I had one too many Guiness the other night and wasn’t up to doing a metcon yesterday. Hopefully they helped me getting huge. Nice work on Fran everyone! I’ll check out the videos when I get home.
Had a Look at the Video on the boards pretty good work James ya pulls are letting ya down though get em sorted and you will be there.
Mind you nice pull up power all the same they were very solid ,something to work towards for me i reckon
Pity I missed Fran yesterday, I shall return tonight though and feel the burn as I havent done anything for 5 days and have been eating a steady diet of double cheeseburgers and strawberry malts…
A nice man from dhl has just this minute delivered my oly shoes.ticketyboo
