If you never been to Melbourne then I recommend you take a trip here and stay for a while. I had the great pleasure to stop by another crossfit yesterday- CF:Vic. Its a rad little box in the area of Fitzroy. The box is surrounded by cafe's, hipster shops, vintage book stores and, graffitti is tagged all along side narrow alleys. Prior to my 330pm wod(snatch, clean and jerk, f.s, and 5 round nate in 6:22) we ate at a dinky cafe named Marios. I had the best poached eggs/smoked salmon/avo/bacon in the history of my breakfast experiences. We then spent around 2 hours at a coffee shop learning about old techniques to "press" coffee and new techniques on how to buy a killer espresso machine( and A LOT of chatting in between with the sale women).
We then continued to walk along bruenswick st(the main st in fitzroy) and poked ourselves into random shops. Great afternoon!
I cooked kangaroo for dinner and it was bom-dig-ga-di!!!
Today we spent most of the day at Crown. Crown is a hotel casino in which a bunch of snobby Australians spend cash and lots of chinese people come to eat at the food court. That was most of the day since we started late, around 1030am. Auntie Carla and I went to Genisis which is one of the lamest gym in the world. This is why:
1. At the gym I was asked "how many more sets do you have".
2. All the trainers were teaching their clients how to punch with dumbells- like it was boxing day...
3. Australian pop music
4. All the trainers had shorts like Dial and Tuller...AHHHHH
5. Last but not least: Auntie Carla took the Ab class....sigh:(
hey, they did have a barbell with weights and a pullup bar...
todays wod: deadlift:60-5,90-5,110-3,130-3,160-3,180-3 press:50-3,60-3,70-3,80-2,90-1 which is a pr!!!Then on the minute do one chest to bar pullup without coming off bar: I got to 12min.
rest 30min: run/jog for 30min then tabata treadmill at 12%grade.
