Ladies and gents, we give you the final athlete of the week for the summer of 2015: Mr. Carey.

There were strong performances across the board this week but none that impressed us more than Mr. C. While it's hard for the parents to be as consistent as the kids (seeing as they have big kid jobs and bills and stuff like that to pay), they make their time count when they're in here. Of course at the beginning of the week the dads spent their time talking shit to each other during Mr. Z's mic'd up session.

Unfortunately, Mr. C didn't make it in on Monday so we'll never know what his split jerk or push press would have looked like, but he came back with a vengeance on Tuesday. Both him and Mr. Z went the full 20 rounds on modified Chelsea and went 4 rounds before modifying the reps (one more than I told them to aim for). 

Thursday was perhaps the most impressive day. While it wasn't the intense workout of the summer, the box jump and pistol/lunge couplet was one made to challenge position. At the beginning of the 6 o'clock, I brought out a couple foams that I figured we'd need throughout the workout. Since Mr. C is a prime feet apart offender, I dropped one by his station and told him that he'd probably need it soon. With an indignant exclamation, Mr. C showed me that he could jump to a 24" box while keeping his feet together. I shrugged it off and figured he'd need it 50 reps in. I was wrong. Not only did his feet not come apart one time, but he kept his knees still as Chris during a workout. Mr. Carey kept up the strong performances with a deadlift on Friday that (rumor has it) bent the bar. 

Way to close out the summer! Let's keep it up going into fall.
