We are responsible for the energy we bring into any environment; our community is shaped through this emotional gumbo. There have been considerable bouts of change within the MadLab roof, mostly behind the scenes; however, we have been gradually unfurling more. Our fusion of timeless classics and progressive methodology can rock up some rough waters. This will inevitably will establish smooth sailing for all of us. We are a family of old schoolers, old dogs, newbies, and inbetweeners; we need to recognize and celebrate one another. We also need to an open forum to host all the constructive feedback.

Open your Friday evening to our Town Hall Meeting. You may already have:
- an extensive evening with your building’s strata council
- enough friends
- date night planned to save what’s left of your hopeless relationship
- to go to the club early to meet up with all the other keen boners of the night
This is the opportunity to have a constructive pre-night-out. Get educated on how we are providing you with more, while at the same time, get provided with a forum to demand more. The gathering will offer information on the future of the business, programming, coaching, and community events. Fill us with suggestions on improvements and events that will enrich your experience.
Prime yourself for the weekend, get a buzz, or just accuse Patty of being a witch.

…and now a word from our sponsor:
Warm-up: Eunice Choice
Strength:
Front Squat – 1 x AMRAP (use the weight you used for you 3 x 7 or 2 x 10)
*Can you do 12 plus reps at a weight that used to be daunting for 3-5 reps? That’s the goal 
Conditioning: 5 rounds Not For Time. Focus on Quality. 15 minutes
1 Rope Climb (legless if you can) (or 5 five second ring rows)
5/5 Bulgarian Split Squats
5-five second ring dips
rest as needed between sets
Finisher: EMOM Chest to Bar pull-ups x 5 minutes (6-12 reps each minute). ESPECIALLY important if you’re doing the CrossFit Open as Chest to Bars always come up!
100% agreed.
Sure, many folks don't give two sh*ts about the leader board, but many of us old AND new schoolies do. It helps for consistency, record keeping, and yes, even competitiveness. ;)
I completely agree Woodchuck, I will take note of this and make sure that it is clearer going forward!
Thanks for the feedback :)
Hey everyone...I unfortunately can't make it to the Town Hall on Friday, which would be a perfect place to voice this comment:
Can we please have the coach who posts the WOD state what should be considered Rx? Now that we have the option to post our scores on the leaderboard whether it was Rx or not (which is great!), my old-schoolness would like some consistency. I know this came up last week about the box jumps vs step ups, but yesterday's WOD had HSPUs as an option to do instead of push-ups, which is totally fine, but now if I posted a score as Rx I would beat Meagan who I know did HSPUs so that's not comparable. So my understanding is that Rx in yesterday's WOD would be HSPUs & box jumps (not step ups). Anyone else with me on this??
