Hey guys,
It’s a beautiful Sunday here in Burlington, North Carolina and it’s time to break into this week’s CrossFit Simplicity Weekly Rundown! If you are new here, this is where we take a quick snapshot at the week ahead and see what you will have in store for you at the gym. This week we have some great workouts and we are really excited to share it with you guys. You all have been crushing it this summer and we know the month of August will be no different. Remember to stay as consistent as possible in the gym because that’s how we see those long-term results and changes we are looking for. Now let’s dive in!
