Programming Overview: July 25-30

Screen Shot 2016-07-25 at 8.55.05 AM

We are testing the box squat, weighted pull-up, and front squat this week. Overall, we are going to be focusing more on strength with both the big lifts and the accessory movements due to the heat. The intention is to give you a good yet tolerable workload every class to keep you coming 4+ times per week. Make sure you are hydrating, eating clean, and sleeping 7+ hours per night so you are recovering as much as possible.
