Workouts:

Halloween is over, and now it’s time for Thanksgiving. Weather starting to cool down means running workouts will be adjusted to accommodate the cold. Monday begins with a high-skill grit test where athletes push for big sets. We will get the heart rate up on Tuesday with some assault bikes and barbell cycling. We are attacking the core on Wednesday while trying to perform flawless double unders. Partner Thursday is back and we have a fun erg with increasing barbell weights that will challenge your athlete’s consistency in lifting under heavy duress. For Friday, we will program the Hero Workout “Chad” along with another option (“Burt”) to help fit within the hour timeframe. We know that “Chad” can take well over an hour to complete. The weekend we lighten the volume up just slightly to help those who suffered through the week’s grind.

    That’s a wrap for the CFS Weekly Rundown! We have a great week ahead of you guys so we hope everyone will be able to make it into the gym as consistently as possible! We are moving steady through our strength cycle so be mindful of what days we are lifting so that you can attend and keep the progress rolling in. I hope everyone has enjoyed this beautiful weekend and is ready for a good solid week in the gym. Now get plenty of rest, recovery, and relaxation so we can hit it hard. See you all in class!
