  1. Sharp,

    Isn’t that the exact shirt you wore out a couple weeks ago? A little tighter now but looks good. Makes you easier to shop for (kind of like getting shorts longer than Speedo’s for Brad). : )

    In all seriousness, thanks for everything that you have done for all of us, from coaches to members. So as not to write a novel on the messgae board, I’ll just say that I am beyond thankful for the person that you are, and look forward to seeing how many people that we can all touch, collectively, with CrossFit over the coming years.

  2. He taught us the med ball muscle up and how to roll. Always out to challenge and help us improve. Happy birthday Matt, thanks for everything you do for us.

  3. Happy Birthday Matt. Thank you for everything you’ve done, and continue to do. Thanks especially for the monkey noises, and serving justice all over the place.

  4. HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Matt!! Thanks for all you do and great job on the butterfly. I’m going to learn it and I hope it is as good as yours. In your words: SWEET!!! Enjoy.

  5. Happy birthday Sharp!! Thank you for everything that you do for us. It’s a blessing that CFM has someone like you on it’s side. Thanks for pushing me everyday to be better.

    It just had to be muscle ups. 6:30 class, just ignore me tomorrow morning as I’m finishing up this one. I shouldn’t be in the way too long.

  6. Matt, I’m not sure if that haircut is street legal, but if your commanding officer will let you, then I think you should go that route!!!

    Also, I’ve heard that donuts have a high correlation to back injuries, so be strong…

    Happy Birthday man!

  7. Happy Birthday Matt!!! (must be the big 5…..0 is it?). In all seriousness tho, thanks for being an awesome coach and an all round cool dude :-)

  8. Happy Birthday Matt, I hope you enjoy your day!! I will not be at the Christmas Fun on Friday, I am out of town. :( Sounds like a lot of fun though!! :)

  9. You are a cut above the rest. They don’t make many like you. (In most ways that’s a compliment :-) ) Your heart to see others achieve and grow is a gift you give everyone around you. I am so glad I got you started on Crossfit. I think that’s how it happened.

  10. Happy Birthday Matt! Keep reaching for the stars, your bound to catch one. Congrats on what you have accomplished in the last year, both in life and crossfit.

  11. Happy Birthday, Monkey Boy! Thanks for pouring out your life for others. May lots of blessings come back your way. You rock!

  12. Happy Birthday Matt! Thanks for coming into our store and into our lives. The journey through Xfit @ Xroads has led to much more than I had anticipated. Thanks for the nudge. Hugs and blessings!

  13. happy bd bro…thanks for introducing me to everything I’ve grown to hate…burpees, power cleans, anything that has to do with squats…buy you a beer on Friday

  14. Happy Birthday Monkey Man…Oh oh oh ah ah ah ah!! What goes around comes back around so get set cause you’ve got alot coming your way! Thank you so much for all you do at CFM and in general, as a person. You and Jen are fantastic people and I just love little Princess too!! Hope you have a great birthday! Thanks again :)

  15. Happy Birthday Sharp! It’s very obvious from the well said post above alot of a great people are just as appreciative as myself as to how your sincere desire and direct passion have contributed to changing lives, including my own. Thanks for being you and doing what you do.

  16. Happy Birthday Sharp, thanks for pushing me every day to finish… WOD is tough, only did the box jumps RX.

  17. Happy B-day Sharp! The main page pic was much hotter.

    31:33, couldn’t get the MU’s. Got the first round and then submitted to subbing 3 to 1 pull ups (for most rounds). I suck. Too close to the last MU wod, wrists split open early and general strength failure killed me. 30″ box jumps also suck, we should do them more often. Loved the OHS!

    Matt, what would you think about next year just doing 7 rounds of wings & beer? I think most of us could complete Rx’d…
