Last week, we wrapped up our Mid-Year Challenge with "THE DESCENT", a doozie of a workout that left most of us lying on the floor trying to catch our breath and get our legs back... Great job to everyone who completed all 3 of our Mid-Year Challenge workouts! It was fun watching you all throw down over the past 3 weeks. Official Leaderboard results will be communicated soon!
This week, we'll run a modified holiday schedule on Thursday, July 4th offering classes at 7:45am and 9:00am. We'll start the July 4th holiday off with a bang with the Hero workout, "Bradshaw" honoring U.S. Army 1st Lt. Brian Bradshaw, 24, of Steilacoom, Washington, who was assigned to the 1st Battalion, 501st Parachute Infantry Regiment, 4th Airborne Brigade Combat Team, 25th Infantry Division, based in Fort Richardson, Arkansas, and died in Kheyl, Afghanistan, on June 25, 2009, from wounds suffered when insurgents detonated a roadside bomb near his vehicle.
Next week (week of 7/8), we kick off an Olympic Weightlifting cycle centered around the Snatch + Clean & Jerk, which will culminate in a 1RM test at the end of August! In preparation for that cycle, this week, we'll work on Snatches on Tuesday and Clean + Shoulder to Overhead on Saturday. Then, during the week of 7/8, you'll have the opportunity to build to something heavy in these two lifts that can be used to base percentages off of during the cycle.
