Oooooh, Alcohol! I know its a lot of Team Sketch's favorite vice. It certainly has been known to make my Monday's tricky.
Aside from "empty" calories, alcohol sugars are the last sugars to metabolize. It's crazy talk to think that one cocktail can ruin a whole day (or week!)'s work, but its true. To mitigate your damage, stick to the following guidelines.
Rule #1: Beer'll getcha. I love beer. But, the gluten in it

Deadlifts at 6am are known to catch you at 4 pm, apparently.
deadlifts demand yoga.
One hour 'till Rooftop Happy Hour Yoga at Balance Gym. YEEEEES!
deadlifts, then Happy Hour Yoga (5:30) at Balance Gym!
21-15-9: Pullups & 95lbs Power Snatch: 13:04
Lauren & me-- snatchin'.
Olympic lifts, metabolic conditioning, ashtanga asanas, and a great cause: skin cancer awareness. I love my friends-- and @[100063566111555:2048:Balance Gym].
Heavy Deadlifts demand... protein. Then yoga.
To quote @[617270401:2048:Erica Martinson] (with a nod to my burgeoning, torrid friendmance with @[506243441:2048:Kaelan Hollon] ): ""I spend a lot of time thinking, "How can I better stalk @[771905126:2048:Michael Joel Hall]?" The answer is this: $20 for a month unlimited gym/classes at Balance, where he can be my yoga guru, or $59 for a month unlimited CrossFit, where I know he loiters (lifting things over his head

In this order: Bench press, teach, practice, run.
teach, deadlift, run, teach, practice, teach... seis de mayo leads to lunazula.
Today seems like a pretty bitchin' day to pratice on Balance Gym's rooftop. Getting Primary in before teaching at 5:30. Looking forward to all the new members!
practicing the rocket sequence at Balance Gym, then doing a metcon at CrossFit Balance. Then, of course, sharing some bendy-jumpy-floatiness with my friends from Mid City Yoga and Balance Gym. Come play!
Can you imagine a no grunting gym? I would have been asked to leave @[100063566111555:2048:Balance Gym] today if we had a "lunk alarm."

needs to go bench.
I hope I see some friends tonight at tonight's yoga class at Balance Gym. That'll make it easier to round up some drinkin' buddies.
...didn't realize this was his last week of strict strength work... lookout CrossFit Balance, I'm comin' back to play!
"Cloudy, with biiiiiig silver linings" was the forecast this morning: <3 practicing in Dupont and making it to the end of primary right as Erica Martinson (a bff) walked up. <3 returning to crossfit. <3 leading a class and being able to thank my "sub" in person
had a pretty amazing day-- An awesome lift this AM, fabulous classes, a coffee date with my dear teacher and friend Kristen Krash, a fantastic conversation with my students about what "yoga" means to them ("awareness of the breath, body and mind. freedom. work."), and a killer CrossFit class. I mean, really. Today rocks. MichaelCycle shipped, too. I know, I can't stand me, either. 🙂
Power Cleans and Deadlifts in the AM so that I can do Primary in the heat of a DC sun. You do not need heaters when it's 97°!
Eating in this manner has changed my attitude, my body, and my overall well-being. I started out Paleo, and have allowed Dairy back in (moderatly), and now am mostly "primal".

O hai mango. O bai cleanse.
Oooh-- hey guys, the 6:15 class is totally on today at Balance Gym. Come play!
A month of 90% vegetarianism: check. Tomorrow: back to STRICT paleo. No modifications (no dairy, no roasted nuts, not even a smidge of sugar). Lets see.
