Arriving in Beijing can be the most magical experience on a clear day like today. The air is crisp, the sky dark blue. Incredible. It makes this 48-hour business trip all the more worthwhile. I could’t sleep well on the plane so one way to help the jet lag was to double down on the workout… Our corporate hotel, the JW Beijing has a great gym, pool and a yoga room, the latter which became my WOD box for the afternoon. Found enough weights for Wendler but no olympic bar only a crooked E-Z curling bar… We make do… Needless to say, along with the local faithful I am still waiting for the opening of the first CF gym in China. Please somebody… Anybody. Reebok?
