Shout Out Friday

Front Squat 1-10-1-20-1-30 reps

Hammer and Caps work through 84 pull-ups and handstands. Did this workout make you sore? What are you doing to rehab those taxed shoulders?

Another Edition of Shout Out Friday!

Here’s your chance.  Give props, big-ups, and kuddos to the folks you workout next to everyday.  Did you see someone make a break through, do something great, or something nice?  Here’s your chance to give them the credit they deserve, it’s shout out Friday!
What exactly is a shout out?  See below.
shout-out (n.) Slang. A public expression of thanks or gratitude.  A kind mention of a homey.
Examples include:
“I’d like to give a shout-out to Stef for designing such super fly t-shirts”
“I’d like to give a shout-out to Zender for rocking DT like it was her job!”
“I’d like to give a shout-out to the Wednesday 6pm class to getting Odie through his ladder of death.”

Post to comments your shout-outs.
