WORKOUT OF THE DAY

7-5-12

Goat Day

Thursday is a programmed Rest Day. Today is a prime day to do some mobility work or work on a particular weakness or…Goat. Yesterday’s Hero WOD really stressed the knee joints, Achilles tendon of the lower leg and ankles. I highly suggest that you do some mobility work on these areas. Also, if you missed a WOD earlier in the week and wish to make it up…Thursday is your opportunity.

BOX NEWS

I want to remind everyone of the new class times and programming changes. I have added a 7 am class on Monday, Wednesday & Friday, and a 4 pm & 7 pm class on Tuesday and Thursday. Saturday will have a 9 am class also. This is not a WOD class. Saturday at 9 am is a Weightlifting class only. However, Sara or I will also have a Nutrition Education class during the 9 am time slot also. The nutrition education classes will be a precursor to a Whole 30 challenge beginning August 1, 2012. If you are interested in doing some self-education on the Whole 9, I suggest you read, It Starts with Food, a book written by the creators of the Whole 9, Dallas and Melissa Hartwig.

Changes in the program: Thursdays will now be a rest/goat/make-up/mobility day. You make the call. I will likely post some mobility work or something for folks to work on if you don’t already have an idea of what you want to improve on.

Clarification

Maybe I wasn’t very clear in my email this past week. The programming cycle will begin Monday, July 2, 2012. Therefore, this Saturday will be an 8 am only class, and yesterday was not a “Mobility” day. But, I do appreciate the feedback.
