Outstanding Helen time, Cliff – way to go! The Black-Hearted One (we all know who I’m talking about)had me modify Helen to do 24 jumping pullups since my shoulder “issue” prevents me from kipping and, let me tell you, it felt just as gnarly as an Rx Helen which is to say, a near-puker! Those girls sure can be real bitches!

Congratulations to Cliff and Emily! Em, what a terrific week for you!
I was there to witness Cliff’s amazing feat. He truly was on fire. Plus, he had just done a PR with his overhead squat minutes before his astounding Helen!
CFWSC is awesome!

Hmmph, and how much time did you take off your Helen time, Emily? And by how much did you PR your overhead squat? Great work.

Well, a “few minutes later” means 20 minutes of staggering about moaning “my hands are going to fall off”, but I agree, Cliff was on fire.

“I realize that when I am teaching a class, I look pretty good. You know, all-wise and all-powerful. Possessed of great knowledge and a BOOMING STORM GOD-LIKE VOICE.”

Is that what you call it when you yell at us?

Oh my gosh. No more late-night pre-post debates with Mia about Greek gods. And no more comic books.

Seriously, though. Good post.
And congrats to Cliff. That is a SMOKIN’ time. He might’ve flopped around on the floor for a few minutes, but he was up and teaching an elements just a few minutes later. Saw with my own eyes as I myself floundered around the box in a post-Helen daze, coughing and falling on the landing mats. Total stud.
