This Sunday’s weightlifting seminar has been cancelled. Refunds will be issued if you had already paid. Regular Open Gym will be happening from 10am-noon. Our jogger order has also been cancelled due to a minimum quantity issue. Refunds will be coming by the middle of next week if you had Venmo’ed. The Festivus Games Event on 4/18/2020 has been postponed until September. Get signed up so we can meet that minimum and have the event in the Fall. On a much happier note: our ladies kicked big time a$$ tonight in the Oly Open Week 3 challenge. The Hang Snatch. Always up for a challenge, these ladies brought it! PR’s all around. Thanks to all of the spectators who came to cheer on. See you for week 4 next week. Workout of the Day 3 Rounds AGOQ #3 3 Rounds 9 BarMuscle Ups 18 Toes to Bar 12 Minute Cap

New towels will be rotated every class to wipe down equipment. Please wipe down your markers and whiteboards too. All towels can be placed in the bag lined laundry bin to be sanitized.

We have had some gnarly leg work the last few days. The lunges on Saturday, the thrusters and squat cleans on Monday and the back squats on Wednesday…whew. The 5 rep OTM from Wednesday is going to go for 6 weeks – it’s 50 total squats compressed into 10 minutes. You should play with concepts like speed, pauses at the bottom, tempo and other ideas. We will continue to give ideas on how to build your leg strength, power and endurance. Workout of the Day “Helen-ish” AMRAP 20 Parking lot run 12 Kettlebell Swings 53/35 9 Pullups
