Week 1 Complete

Great to have everyone in class this week! We covered a lot, lots of technique we will be using throughout the summer. Technique and solid foundational skills are ESSENTIAL, if not CRUCIAL! Efforts, intensity, reps, weights, rounds---all can be modified if needed. Essential skills are NOT up for debate. So great job this week learning a lot of new things and rockin the workouts!!

Some things to review--
Squats-butt back, heels down, chest up
Press-tall posture, abs tight
Push Press-dip and drive!
Clean-deadlift, shrug, drop, front squat, stand
Burpees-just make it!! :)

Lookin to fill class with more people. Look out for those who will push you, and keep pushin yourselves!!
