Hey guys,
It’s a beautiful Sunday here in Burlington North Carolina! It’s feeling more like Spring than Fall, but we’ll take it! Hope everyone is out enjoying the sunshine and gearing up for another amazing week at CrossFit Simplicity. It’s time to crack into the CFS Weekly Rundown and see what we have in store. It’s going to be an excellent week here at the gym as we get deeper into Phase II of our NBD program. By now you guys have seen a week with the new layout and should know a little more of what to expect each day. Remember to be as consistent as possible so that we can get the full benefit of the program. We’ll have high intensity days, low intensity days, skills and drills days, etc. so we want to hit it all. Let’s check it out…
- Costume Class: Thanks to all who came out Saturday to our Halloween celebration! We had some excellent costumes and a lot of fun. Shoutout to John William for winning the costume contest and Ben Brucato for winning the costume run!
- Hoodies: Since winter is coming we are going to hold off on our 80’s tees and look toward some hoodies to keep us warm going to and from the gym! Be on the lookout for a preorder sheet!

Well, that’s all we’ve got for this edition of the CrossFit Simplicity Weekly Rundown! It’s going to be a sick week with lots of great pieces of fitness so get excited. You all have been absolutely killing this new program and it’s so encouraging to see the progress you have been making. Especially the progress on our gymnastics and skills. These are going to pop up in the CrossFit Open this year so be sure you are hitting the progressions and working your way to Rx’ing these movements. Trust the process and it’ll happen. Now enjoy what’s left of this beautiful weekend and get plenty of rest, relaxation, and recovery so we can hit it hard this week. See you all in class!
