| 00:00 - 00:03 | Programming for the next month has been completed |
| 00:04 - 00:05 | Monday is a hand-stand walk from the box to a location south of Berlin |
| 00:05 - 00:07 | Then lunges to Berlin |
| 00:08 - 00:12 | We were thinking of including a dumbbell in the |
| 00:12 - 00:15 | second part just to spice it up. |
| 00:17 - 00:19 | Add a barbell to the lunges |
| 00:19 - 00:21 | with 5kg bumpers |
| 00:24 - 00:26 | Tim, ... |
| 00:27 - 00:28 | ... the 5s ... |
| 00:31 - 00:33 | The 5s are all bent and damaged |
| 00:34 - 00:36 | They have been dropped too often |
| 00:53 - 00:58 | Anyone who didn't wipe down their equipment needs to do so before the next class arrives |
| 01:13 - 01:15 | "Don't drop the 5s!!!" |
| 01:15 - 01:17 | How many times does it have to be said?! |
| 01:18 - 01:23 | Every week, something else is broken |
| 01:25 - 01:28 | or there is chalk dusted all over the place |
| 01:29 - 01:31 | The floor looks Fleetwood Mac's dressing room |
| 01:31 - 01:34 | "Keep it in the bucket" |
| 01:34 - 01:37 | 1,000 times it's been said as well |
| 01:37 - 01:40 | And who broke the 20kg bar? |
| 01:40 - 01:42 | One of the guys was impersonating Sonny Webster and... |
| 01:42 - 01:46 | You're encouraging this? |
| 01:46 - 01:48 | It looked pretty cool until... |
| 01:48 - 01:52 | Are we getting fitter or creating content? |
| 01:53 - 01:54 | Insanity! |
| 01:55 - 01:57 | Last week someone used a Lime scooter on the 600 meter run |
| 01:57 - 02:00 | And put his score as Rx on WODBoard |
| 02:00 - 02:03 | above my score! |
| 02:04 - 02:08 | There used to be a time when people listened to coaches |
| 02:08 - 02:13 | Now it's bathroom breaks and endless scaling |
| 02:14 - 02:16 | The clock starts and half the class has forgotten the workout |
| 02:17 - 02:21 | And the other half have difficulties counting beyond 4. |
| 02:27 - 02:29 | If just one workout could go smoothly, and no dropping the gear |
| 02:30 - 02:34 | Instead of dumbbells bouncing around like a scene from Donkey Kong |
| 02:34 - 02:36 | Is it that hard to keep hold of the dumbbells |
| 02:41 - 02:42 | After every dumbbell work out |
| 02:43 - 02:47 | it's like people are deliberately trying to mix up the weights |
| 02:48 - 02:53 | then hide them under a layer of chalk |
| 02:54 - 02:56 | And then there is the self-selected scaling |
| 02:56 - 02:59 | You can't scale 21 pull ups to a couple of dumbbell curls |
| 03:00 - 03:02 | We'll just programme 20 minutes of wall balls EVERY day |
| 03:04 - 03:07 | It's okay, you'll probably still scale anyway |
| 03:14 - 03:16 | I looked at the playlist this morning |
| 03:19 - 03:23 | Couldn't believe what I witnessed |
| 03:25 - 03:26 | Adele and Country music |
| 03:31 - 03:33 | How does anyone work out to that? |
| 03:40 - 03:46 | Seems we need to change the password on the Spotify account |
| 03:46 - 03:49 | Where will it end? |
| 03:53 - 03:56 | Country music, really? |
