The newly gorgeous Black Box Brooklyn, where free beginners' classes are going on today and tomorrow at 1pm. See all the Black Box Brooklyn photos on Flickr at the blackboxbrooklyn photostream.
The new pullup bar at the Manhattan Box is broken, so I'm guessing Josh will most likely have the 11am WOD class do something else besides 50 muscle-ups for time...
Actually, the problem with the bar should not be relevant to today's WOD.
Court and I managed to get the Elements Class through a half Cindy last night (with both of us stablizing the bar) but we weren't able to let the 7:00 PM WOD class finish yesteday's thruster-pull-up WOD.
The system is not stable enough for people to kip. Please don't go near it unless there is an instructor directly monitoring you.
wow! you guys did an amazing job with that place-it looks like it should be a gym in manhattan! :)
no seriously I am so impressed-that is unreal.I really need to sho wmy support and respect by going to work out there. so long as jeff has the fried rings for me of course. I am blown away. I know everyone has said it a million times but wow-you guys really did us proud.

(I thought "50 is the new 30" was just something people told me to be polite.)
some brutal muscle up training from josh. developed 3 new nasty blisters "on the job". josh says i am a month away. we will see. gotta keep working on it. great job everyone today.
on another note-I have for sale a brand new pair of black suede Rogue Do-Win weight lifting shoes. They are awesome. So awesome that I idiotically ordered two pairs. My second pair should be arriving from Rogue Fitness any day now -so before i send them back -i wanted to know if anyone wanted them-you could save on shipping bc I will have already paid. The model this year has a slightly lower heel than the Do-Wins from 2007. Very comfy.
They are a size 7
so for women this is an 8 1/2
for men I guess a 7 1/2? not sure but they are a 40
they are $109 and they are soo awesome.
visit www.roguefitness.com
and click on shoes and you will see them-they are the only ones offered.
email me at michellefoxman@yahoo.com if you want them
Black Box BK looks great!
