Back in Business Again!
Big thanks for last week guys. I know full well how much of a disruption it is for us to close down, but thanks for being so cool about it. AND we got so much done! When you come in go with the “oooh aahhh” approach instead of the look around quickly and ask “what did you guys even do?” In the end, the gym is clean (ish), the gear is maintained which is safer for you and more effective, and it gets your coaches a chance to breathe and feel really good about the gym the train out of again.
Look forward to meeting Ed Mao if you haven’t yet! He’s going to be coming around more and helping coaching while he’s in between vastly more lucrative gigs. He’s a bull of a man, wrapped in sheer joy for all things bro. I love him like a brother I should have had when I was 26.
Saturday: be thinking about scaling options, bring it up to your coaches. Chelsea is 30 rounds of Cindy on the minute. It’s a long time to not fall off. I personally have done it at 2,4,8 and 3,6,9. And felt entirely good about it each time 🙂 I’ve never managed all 30 rounds even at 4,8,12, even though reps of calisthenics really aren’t my jam! Ha!
Workouts:
Monday: Every 5 Minutes for 30 Minutes: 5 Back Squats 315/225, 10 Box Jumps 24/20, 15 Push-Ups
Tuesday: 5 Rounds for Time
400 meter Run

Thursday: Nicole – Strict Only
Friday: Bench Press x5
Saturday: Chelsea Event!
April 2-9 Renovations Week!
Yay! I hope you’re off in a far away sunny place enjoying your break! If you’re not, I sincerely apologize for upending your weekly routine and schedule. We all did home workouts before and they simply aren’t as cool as coming into the gym and getting after it with your friends, I totally get it. I’ve done plenty of hotel workouts, home workouts, travel sessions etc. And dropping in to the local affiliate where I am is always better than lunges and push-ups in the hotel. However! I would be waaaay less fit, if I had skipped that roughly 150+ workouts on the road over the years.
And part of being a fit person is getting your movement in for you. So let’s get your movement in this week. Be it these home WODs, or long walks, bike rides, Meadowdale Beach Trail (quite steep), yogalates on zoom, whatever 🙂
I’m gonna keep the workouts really short and sweet (sweet means, bangers) so that you’re more apt to do them. I know that the home situation isn’t always the best, with kids and dogs and stuff, but get up early, put those little beasts away, and then do a few leg swings (don’t kick anything) and arm circles (watch out for your lamp!) and get to it!
Monday: 4 Rounds of Plank for 1 Minute, and Pigeon Stretch 30s each side. THEN 5 Rounds for Time of: 15 Jumping Air Squats, 15 Squat Thrusts (1/2 Burpee), 15 Lying Leg Raises
Tuesday: 3 Rounds of 20 Glute Bridges, Side Plank for 30 seconds each side. THEN 5 Rounds for Time of: 25 Mountain Climbers, 25 Bicycle Crunches, 25 Standing Goodmornings
Wednesday: Arm Circles a-plenty, like 5 minutes of front/back, high/low, small/big, hands on hips etc. THEN 21-15-9 Push-up, Chair Dip, Stink Bugs, this is like “JT” If you’re methodical with your reps, it’ll take a while and your arms will be smoked. IF you blaze through it and care not for your future self, it’ll take less time and be kinda easy. Take care 🙂
Thursday: Calf Raises and Shin lifts on the wall 3×25 each. THEN Max Rounds in 15 Minutes of: Run in place 100 Steps, 30 Backward Stationary Lunges, 10 Burpees
Friday: 5 Rounds for Time: Plank for 1 Minute, 25 Lying Leg Raises, 12 Side Plank Rotations Left, 12 Side Plank Rotations Right, 25 Sit-ups/Crunches
Saturday: 30% Chance of Rain, get outside and walk! Find a hill and walk up it a bunch of times in a row like a total psychopath 🙂
See you Monday!!!
