Having kids is the best thing ever, and it’s been an insane year. I’m proud of what we’ve achieved and been through as a little family. New little person. [...]

W G Fran 21-15-9: 42.5kg Thrusters, Pull-ups Time: 0:10:24 (PR by 7 sec) So… That sucked. The thrusters got crushingly heavy after the first round (which was broken at 12). Pull-ups were a disaster after almost six months away from them. No rhythm, poor technique, rubbery arms and a really, really inefficient technique. I [...]
