Even the NY Times Gets it Right Once in a While
For careful readers of our CFO blog comments, you'll notice that Papa Brad already stole my thunder, but be that as it may, the NY Times had a nice article over the weekend (surprisingly enough) about the benefits of dynamic movement prior to a workout, and saving the static stretches for post-workout (which many of you need to do, by the way!).
There are exercise descriptions as well as a video in the full article, titled "Stretching The Truth." Many of the movements, if not all, will be familiar to any of you who've hung around CFO for a bit.
Read the article!

Congratulations, Tami. It's awesome to see you recognized on the main site.
And just in case you're wondering, the full video of Tamara's Queen Kong performance published in the CFJ contains the infamous post-WOD dance featuring Manwell, Lau, and MJJ, as well as Nicole cackling.

My helmet said it all, T! You are inspiring and make us all proud!
T- it is about f'in time you were recognized!!
Can I vote Tami for Prez?? ok, Journey and Sierra, I know you "heart" Obama, but I "heart" Tami!
Seriously, don't forget to make a stop in one of those cute little booths tomorrow and connect your arrows. Life is good...
Robyn- I heart Obama and Tami, you can too. Go for it, heart two people at once.
I'm gonna say it again...
T- you rock!
Awesome, simply awesome.
Nice work T! Maybe Mikey can frame those infamous red socks! Just make sure you wash them first :)
Nice work, T!
Good job on the cleans!
Who is the scruffy guy with the ballcap that keeps butting in and yelling at the barbell?
Ange thanks for kicking Mari's butt on Sunday...her crazy self LOVED it and even went on a light jog after :)
Brian R., Vee, Leigh, and Wyatt...I'm hearing big things about you guys and your lifting...keep it up!!
Thanks Manwell, Lau (and his balls), MJJ, NIcole, Audge & Wyatt.
Special thanks to Mike for the hours spent putting it together and all of CFO for the huge amount of support, no matter how small the task.
It is remarkably annoying to have to scroll past all the right wing nutcases' posts on the main board to find the ones where people are gushing about Tamara. So worth it, though. That's our bad ass girl. You make us all proud, Tamara!
Oh, and Tamara? You are now on MY stalker wall.
T -
In case I haven't told you lately, (inbetween my giving you a hard time) you are the sh*t.
Tamara -
I'll be more impressed when you start consistently landing em tight like a butterfly with sore feet from 120yds.
Tami,
I know that you know that I know that you are the Sh*t! How about we get some new socks though?
Mike,
Dogging the NY Times? Last I checked, it was only the standard bearer for print journalism.
The secret behind Tami’s power
I had a great workout today and I owe it all to my warm up and the benefits of dynamic movement
Tamara, you are always an inspiration!
BIG props to Lau for being First Comment on the main site, you rock dude!! MJJ not bad either coming in at Comment #6. Everyone else please try harder next time.
BTW Tami, nice job on the workout ;)
T - Hot hot hot! Awesome job!
lol at Brandon for "belly beard"
Brandon my extremely fit friend -
There was a day when the NY Times was a proud standard bearer for print journalism. But much like the fedora, hula hoop, and children playing with marbles and jacks, that day has passed.
last I checked, there was a hula hoop in cfo.
MJJ we need to talk about better ways to spend your time. How long does it take you to find these crazy a$$ videos?
Props T, that was awesome, anyone interested in purchasing shirts I made in honor of our great affiliate challenge let me know.CHECK them OUT
whoops here it is whoops, here it is
Tami - you rock my world. I tried to post that on the main site but they rejected my comments.
Name your price Herm.
That. Shirt. Is. Awesome.
Mr MJJ
Thank you for your interest. You & all other interested parties can pay me in the form of tidbits of personal information about you know who!

I am heartened to see that the benefits of high-glycemic, refined carbohydrates are finally being recognized. Their contribution to performance enhancement across all sports can hardly be overstated.
Obama, Obama,Obama!!!!!!
What a speech!
I wish President Elect Obama well!
