Monday June 28th 6:30pm – 7:30pm class
Hi Team!
Just a quick reminder that Alex and Matt from CrossFit for a Cure will be visiting our gym tomorrow! They have come so far, so if you are able to donate any money, please do so by:
With regards to donations we have come up with three options:
1. The athlete donates directly to the Alzheimer’s Society Of Canada through our blog and either e-mail us a copy of the receipt or print out the receipt and bring it to the event.
2. The athlete brings in the cash donations and then pledges them to the Alzheimer’s Society of Canada to be donated shortly thereafter.
3. We will take the cash donations and the athletes information and donate on there behalf once the event is completed and a receipt will then be mailed to that athlete from the Alzheimer Society.
Options 1 and 2 are preferred, as we would rather not handle any cash donations.
For more information about the event please check out the previous blog post
Today’s Workout:
Buy In – Pick partners and an awesome team name for the WOD!
WOD – “My Buddy Tabata”
With your partner, you will complete 8 tabata intervals EACH of the following exercises:
- Pushups
- Pullups
- Squats
- Rowing
- For the workout, each partner must complete a full 8 intervals of work before switching over – i.e. partner 1 does all 8 intervals of pushups and then partner 2 does 8 intervals of pushups after.
- Scoring is low score on each exercise for each partner (i.e. partner 1 pushups low score = 10, partner 2 pushups low score = 11, team score = 22 for that exercise).
- There will be a 5 minute break between the squats and rowing (complete all the pushup, pullup, and squat Tabatas, 5 min break, then everyone does the row Tabatas).
Cash Out – team stretch and chat with our visiting friends!

did any gamers actually sleep last night? so wired! so much adrenaline from all the great performances and comraderie! love my zone family.
b
I certainly didn’t get much sleep. Couldn’t stop re-living all those exciting moments!
And great work yesterday b!
I slept really well until 3:30am and noticed a few Zoner’s on facebook! I was out so early last night 🙂
crashed at 8:30, woke up at 2:30 😀 and then woke up at 7 again.
you guys are just me! i love my family!
I crashed once my head hit the pillow.. but I kept waking up because I would try to move and hurt way too much!! I didn’t realize how much effort it takes to do the simple things (sitting down) until my entire body ached every time I moved!! But it was all worth it.. great day yesterday 🙂
Went to bed at 10:30pm and was still awake at 3:00am! My body was to wired to relax…and definately re-living those glorious WOD’s…5:15am came WAY TOO EARLY.
My WOD for Monday… Walk up the stairs. (10 min max)
Just wanted to say congratulations to all competitors yesterday… it was awesome to watch you guys throw yourselves into the WODs and give it 100% on each one. So many amazing performances and I’m glad that I was on the sidelines so that I could witness as many as possible.
The best reward for me putting on this event is to have full effort from you guys, so I’m am more happy than I can truly express.
We have such a great community of people at the Zone and I’m really glad that I could offer an event that you guys enjoyed to participate in.
Took a day off today to regenerate but I’m looking forward to seeing you all and reliving the events of the weekend soon.
Hope those “games legs” are doing okay – hey at least I didn’t get you to do 140 wallballs (Canada regional) or 7 minutes of thrusters (central canada sectional) haha 🙂 🙂 🙂

SEVEN MINUTES OF THRUSTERS?! *barf*
