Early Sunday morning we setup our gym at Starbucks. I laid out 360 square feet of rubber flooring, setup the squat rack, three barbells, about 450 pounds of Olympic bumper plates, 5 Dynamax med balls and 8 kettlebells. We took a Concept 2 rower and whiteboards.

Starbucks donated free drinks for people who won the hourly workout contests. Alicia got a free drink for her 5:27 performance on:

4 rounds for time,
15-12-9-6 reps,
Wall ball shots (10 lb. ball)
pull-ups

Michelle had an amazing workout, too. Her time was 6:32 for:

5 rounds for time,
5 x 115 lb. Deadlift
10 burpees

Jim did a workout of 500 m row & wall ball shots, Dean and Kirez worked on Snatches, we demonstrated a lot of kettlebell exercises and taught some Olympic lifting, and had a great time. The proprietor of the pizza place next door swore that Sunday was her best day for walk-ins and nobody was walking in if there was something fitness oriented next to her store. “They’ll feel too guilty buying pizza if they see your fitness setup outside!” — direct quote, I kid you not. So… next Sunday, we’ll be on the other side of Starbucks.

We’ll be lifting heavy and hittin it hard… and changing peoples lives by introducing them to CrossFit.
