Dear Jesus,
Please let RG3 play this week. Thank you in advance.
Many of you may be wondering why I have chosen to use this post to say a prayer to the Good Lawd for the health of RG3. The reasons are two-fold: 1) I love the Redskins more than I love anything that is not biologically related to me, and they have SUCKED…for a very long time. 2) Because it’s my blog, and I will post macrame plant hanger instructional videos if I want. Also, RG3 is on a whole other level of awesome, and if you are not a Redskin fan you now officially hate us for having him. So… SUCK IT.
Oh, BTW, if you CLICK HERE and watch for a little while (1:30), you will see RG3 Safety Bar Squatting SIX-HUNDRED-AND-NINETY-FIVE POUNDS. See, I made it fitness-y.
Corey Capella – 395# Front Squat:
WOD 121214
Strength
1) Every 40 seconds for 6:00 (20 total reps):
2 Banded Deadlifts @ 60% Bar Weight + 20% Band Tension
Notes: The bar should be loaded with 60% of the 1RM Deadlift. Band tension should equal 20% of 1RM at the top of the lift. Judging band weight and setup is explained in this DEMO VIDEO
2) Bench Press: 3X10 – absolutely heaviest possible each set, rest as needed.
Notes: All reps must be performed with the hips (ass) in contact with the bench.

Oakland raiders?
I’m not a Redskins fan but I’m glad the NFL has ‘football jesus’. Athletes that redine positions are always a lot of fun to watch. Maybe he just needs a get well soon card?
What is your best sub for rope climbs?
This isn’t by the books but I subbed one Burpee muscle up for every rope climb.
I may be living in Denver now, the land of PFM, but I will always be a Skins fan.
HTTR!
What’s that? You didn’t see RG3 squat 695? Well I did. You just have to believe in the Threesus.
RG3… Cam Newton. One year wonder. U should b watching real football like the CFL, go Eskimos!
As a Baylor alumni and Cowboys fan it’s been a difficult pill to swallow, but my Cowboys allegiance is slowly waning.

rg3 is a beast.. they would’ve killed my fave team (Steelers) if his receivers had caught any of those beautifully thrown balls.
1) 350+purps
2) 275, 300, 275 (lulz @ me, benched 25# more than i squatted) first set with 275 was easy, 300 was pretty tough, last set was 275 i barely got the last rep locked out. i’m pretty stoked with how much my bench has improved with this program. never had anything more than 225 for 10 reps before today.

I’m headed to Vegas for work in a few weeks. Any of you guys know if there are Outlaw-Friendly gyms out there?
Either way i’m sure they will have an easy drop-in system set up.
I don’t own a gym(besides my garage) but there are multiple gyms with open gym available. I also lift with my friend who owns a studio he train out of. Hit me up if you like and we can maybe work something out.
