Share the joy!

I guess I was supposed to be in hypernation i my cave. playing with evil schemes for the Scandinavian Challenge! I honestly had plans made to do just that, only to come out to share some grunts of discontent whenever something outrageous caught my attention!
Well, plans are made to be broken, and today I would like to share a fantastic feat with you!

I have had the pleassure of working with a very determined client for a while now. When we met, he had all the 9 basic moves to legit standards in his "toolbox", and he was determinaed that the sky was the limit of where he could go! He is in his late 40's and he has no prior history of athletic performance!

This gentleman now does 15 kipping pull ups, a "fran" as rxd in 11 min, and yesterday he did strings of 3 rep deadlifts at 100kg! The man is a beast:-)

What I am trying to say is that it is never to late to make a commitment to where you want to take your physical fitness, and the sky truly is the limit.
It would have been fantastic if I could have claimed that these success were all because of the fantastic coaching I had provided him with, but the truth is that anyone could have coached this man to success! He decided where he wanted to go, and with the determination he put into his training he has now reached goals- he could have only dreamed about a year ago!
I look forward to seing where this athlete will go from here, and hope to be a part of the journey for a long time to come!
Stellar effort bro!

One again no names are mentioned- you know who you are!

back to the bat-cave!

Much love

Tjoho, tack för senast. Nu har det spridit sig till nacken och övre delen av ryggen också : )

Tack också för tipset till dagens wod, det blev bra med kb-svingar.

Slutligen hittade jag ett klipp på killen som inte gillar att CrossFit är CrossFit, Danny Hallmén. Se och njut

Åja, lite kan du nog ta åt dig äran. Du är en grym tränare Mads. Ingen peppar som du!

Hmmm. Om han kan vid den åldern, så är det inte försent för mig! Jippie!

Richard: den videon är nog ironisk. Danny verkar 1) vara en bra atlet 2) vilja provocera 3) inte ha nån större koll på multipla metcons tar på kroppen.

Vore jättekul om han ställde upp i Halmstad

Martin - Ja det stämmer nog.
