Nice work today for the few folks that showed up to make some big pulls on the Deadlift. Everyone PR'd yet again!! Once again people were pleasantly surprised at how much stronger they'd gotten without realizing it. Proof that CrossFit Centurion is a Strength & Conditioning facility, not just a bunch of mindless circuits or chippers with no emphasis on making people strong as well as faster and fitter.
We had the privilege of having Steve Rodriguez from CrossFit Fort Vancouver stop by today for the WOD. Steve did a helluva job on the heinous morning MetCon after the deadlifts. Steve was a great guy and a excellent representative of CFFV. Please stop by again the next time you are in town, Steve!
Steve from CrossFit Fort Vancouver. Thanks for stopping by!!
Paul J. - Not only can he design a cool website, he can lift really heavy weights! 385 Lbs with some gas still left in the tank!

"The centurion in the infantry is chosen for his size, strength and dexterity in throwing his missile weapons and for his skill in the use of his sword and shield; in short for his expertness in all the exercises. He is to be vigilant, temperate, active and readier to execute the orders he receives than to talk; Strict in exercising and keeping up proper discipline among his soldiers, in obliging them to appear clean and well-dressed and to have their arms constantly rubbed and bright." (Vegetius. De Re Militari, [6] II, 14 )"

For a limited engagement, I’ll be modeling my newly acquired pink “mankini” this Saturday. Ian has generously donated a dancer’s pole for me to utilize during my modeling routine. Any and all donations would greatly be appreciated. All donations will help supply the CFC frig with delicious, thirst quenching BEER!" Posted in WOD 7/26/10
Trent - you're welcome! I agree with you 100%. I actually found it after my return to a strength day this past Tuesday. It felt SO GOOD to sling some weight! That essay was like a mirror to how my soul felt. Yup, it was that deep. I'm glad you dig it! =)" Posted in WOD 7/24/10

Kaysie- Thank you so much for posting the link to "Iron and the Soul" by Henry Rollins in the forum. A super inspirational and heartfelt essay. I think it eloquently puts words to what most of us feel deep down. For those that have not read it I would definitely recommend you do so.
See you peeps on Monday" Posted in WOD 7/24/10
