God kveld folkens!
When you had your first driving lesson, you started to learn to drive. You probably did not get out of first, second, and third gear, and drove around mostly in a parking lot. You certainly did not drive in formula 1 that day. But after some learning, you could pick up the speed and drive along with the flow of traffic. After that, things sped up a bit, maybe even to a point where you got half decent at collecting speeding tickets.
Long story short, there is a difference between learning something and doing the same thing at speed. We took some time today to practice the bench press and build in weight. That was the part where you got to move intentionally, maybe a little slower and fully focussed. In the workout, you could send it on the bike, and bench press a little quicker. After all, there is only one way to learn how to bench press quickly and that is by bench pressing quickly.
Some things worth mentioning that happened today at Verftet:
Meeting with Margrete and veggies.
3 full rooms at 18:00 with the WOD, a PT group, and the Competitive class. Competitors got all gymnastics today.
HTG teens competition is this Saturday from kl. 13-16. One workout got announced, it looks similar to the hero workout "DT".
If you drop your chalk on the floor, we now have a picture of the chalk fairy that comes and cleans up after you.
At the end of the day, we had a lot of high fives, a lot of people learning new names of their teammates, and some extra fitness.
Sleep tight, and catch some quality hours of recovery so you are ready to take on tomorrow!
