Programming Focus
——————
In October we started a short Oly Cycle. In November we are progressing! Throughout the month you will see complex and lifts that more often incorporate pulling the bar from below the knee. In addition, we will also start layering in more full squat receiving positions as we progress past the power position. As we get closer to year’s end you will start to see some classic CF benchmarks as well as classic lifts for “rep maxes.” We love benchmarks and 1RM lifts because they give athletes a good frame of reference for their current fitness as well as comparison points for past personal bests or future goals. We are pumped to close out the year with some amazing workouts!

Remember, the House Rules hanging on the wall, say it best “Have fun. This is your playground.” We’re looking forward to another fun month at BTCF!

How are our legs feeling after the heavy lunges and wall balls? A small reprieve today to focus on upper-body push/pull movements. Such a fun week so far! See you in class ❤️🍑🔥
